| Abstract: | The paper answers the question how the Russian authorities go about implementing their international environmental obligations. This question implies that implementation is here understood as the political processes taking place at the national, and possibly the sub-national, level after the conclusion of agreements or establishment of regimes at the international level. Most important in this context, it epitomizes an 'exaggerated' version of Russia as a whole with its abundant natural resources and extremely grave environmental conditions. Methodologically, the investigation builds on numerous interviews with government and industry actors in Murmansk, Archangelsk and Moscow, mainly during the period 1997-2001. |
