Jonathan D Oldfield provides a detailed assessment of the changing
relationship between Russian society and the wider environment
since the fall of the Soviet Union. Through this, he highlights the
need to critically evaluate assumptions regarding the post-Soviet
environment, in order to move beyond generalization and engage
meaningfully with the particularities of Russia's contemporary
environmental situation. The book begins by focusing on the nature
of Soviet environmental legacies as a necessary backdrop to the
remainder of the study. This is followed by a general examination
of the relationship between economic change and pollution output
during the course of the 1990s. Further chapters provide in depth
analysis of recent legislative and policy developments in the area
of environmental protection and an exploration of emerging
pollution and environmental quality trends at both the national and
regional level. In addition, the book highlights pressures that are
related to Russia's engagement with the global economy.
