Abstract
Today, the growing importance of environmental protection issues is becoming obvious not only at the state level, but also in the global political space. The modern environmental agenda has long been a synthesis of environmental, economic, and technological problems. The economic development of many countries continues to be based on the large-scale use of natural resources, which creates an additional burden on global ecosystems.
In order to preserve and restore natural resources, as well as to reduce the negative anthropogenic impact on the environment, states take appropriate legal, economic and social measures. In Soviet environmental policy, two key areas are distinguished: the creation of a management system for environmental protection and rational use of natural resources and the development of environmental legislation.
The formation of the state’s attitude to natural resources throughout the second half of the 20th century was dictated exclusively by economic interests. Actions to organize their rational use and protection clashed with the interests of departments in fulfilling planned indicators for the development of these resources.
