Abstract
The article examines peculiarities of implementing the concept of sustainable development in the forest legislation of Russia. On the basis of analysis of legislative provisions and law enforcement practice the authors substantiate the conclusion that, despite a number of drawbacks of Russian criteria and indicators of sustainable development in the field of forest use, their approval means Russia’s commitment to their observance to assess the level of sustainable development, since they are a mechanism for monitoring of and influence on the system of sustainable management of forests. These criteria and indicators require further development by including social indicators of sustainable development in them, which will allow moving from the strategy for ensuring rational use of forests aimed only at finding a balance between environmental and economic interests to full implementation of the concept of sustainable development in the field of forest use.
