Despite a period of economic turmoil in the 1990s, Russia recovered sufficiently well to post impressive growth figures in the years leading up to the recent financial crisis. This examination of the legal and social environment in which business is operating in Russia, and the manner in which corporate responsible investment is gaining ground, focuses on environmental and social aspects of investment and explores the legal and policy perspective. The Russian and non-Russian authors discuss the law, its application in practice and developments relating to the implementation of the Kyoto Protocol, pollution abatement, environmental management systems, CSR and philanthropy.weiterlesen
