Abstract

The article deals with issues related to the legal regulation of forest management in Russia and East Africa.

The purpose of the study is a legal analysis of recent changes in the forest and environmental legislation of the studied countries, as well as the views of Russian and foreign scientists on the problems of the influence of legislative innovations on the state of the forest fund.

In the course of writing the article, the main methods of scientific investigation were used: comparative legal, comparative historical, methods of description and interpretation, theoretical methods of formal and dialectical logic, as well as special scientific methods: legal-dogmatic and the method of interpreting of legal norms.

The authors reviewed the existing legal norms and statistical data, on the basis of which conclusions were drawn regarding the most optimal elimination of existing gaps and contradictions. At the same time, the purpose of writing this article is not to study the environmental forestry legislation of African states, but to study the impact of legislative changes that have occurred in the countries under study on the state and use of forests. As a result of the analysis, the authors show, using specific examples, the process of forming an array of legislation on the use and protection of forests in Russia and the countries of East Africa.
