Problems and prospects in the development of institutional arrangements for forest use in contemporary Russia

Year: 2021

Type: conference-paper

Abstract: The article is devoted to the study of the problems of the transformations in the forest use system over the past 30 years for depressive lumber cutting territories (in the case of the Republic of Karelia). One of the ways to understood problems is through the prism of the system of institutional arrangements regulating the relations between forest use actors, which obliges forest companies to formulate economic strategies. The obtained results indicate that today forest companies do not set the implementation of social policies regarding the local population as a key goal. The economic interests of business and their management decisions regarding forest management are not related to the problems of the local population. However, this is not an obstacle to obtaining a forest certificate. This situation calls for a research that would substantiate the basic methodology for building an efficient institutional system for forest use in contemporary Russia.
