Экологическая неоконвергенция : от теории к практике

Impending environmental disaster due to increased human and industrial environmental pressures force states to bring together their positions and policies to protect it, which leads to the development of environmental convergence. This mechanism is the basis for the formation of national and global environmental policy. It is essential to study the fundamental trends, directions and forms in terms of ped. cting global development in the first half of the twenty-first century. Based on the analysis of ecological theory of convergence and the latest trends of international cooperation, concludes a new phase of convergence of states, which is inherent old and gain new forms of international cooperation. We introduce the concept of neo-convergence, as a new form of states rapprochement. The benefits for different groups of countries in participating in the environmental convergence, their progress towards convergence and policies in the environmental field (2004 – 2014) and main problems of evaluation systems that process are shown and analysed.
