The Concept of Sustainable Development in accordance with Forestry Legislation

Forest legislation plays a significant role in ensuring sustainable development, since the forest area occupies more than half of the country’s territory. Despite the constant improvement of forestry legislation, the number of problems in the forestry sector does not decrease. Thus, it is not possible to reduce the number of forest fires that occur annually, or the area of forests that die from harmful microorganisms. The paper presents the factors that led to the emergence of systemic problems in the development of the forestry complex, regulation and management in the field of forestry and related relations. The general concept of sustainable development is interpreted ambiguously in regulations and literature. By the early 1990s the number of definitions of sustainable development began to reach several dozen, and since then has increased even more. The paper attempts to develop the author’s concept of sustainable development in forestry legislation, analyzes the latest regulatory legal acts, identifies directions for ensuring sustainable development by forestry legislation, and draws conclusions on the research topic.
