Description
Summary:Objective: to establish the correlation between the industrial symbiosis concepts and the formation of a regulatory framework for economic activity.Methods: the features of the formation of the industrial symbiosis concept and its implementation in economic activity were identified with a set of historical methods. The comparative-legal method has widely used, which is expressed in comparing and understanding the reflection of the analyzed concept in foreign legislation and doctrine. The study of normative-legal acts was carried out using the formal-legal method.Results: by the example of industrial symbiosis, the author investigated the peculiarities of the industrial ecology categories reflected in legal regulation. The author states the need to legal adaptation of economic concepts before their consolidation in acts of positive law. The article shows the history of the industrial ecology ideas as a doctrine that substantiates the similarities in the biological and socio-economic systems development. The approaches to the definition of industrial symbiosis as a basic concept of industrial ecology are summarized. The author demonstrated the use of symbiotic approaches for effective organization of production by the example of states with different economic, political and legal systems. An eco-industrial park is showed as the main legal form allowing the application of industrial symbiosis approaches. Within the international regulatory system, the author identifies the most significant documents, devoted to using these approaches in national economic systems. Russian legislation was analyzed separately to consolidate the industrial ecology categories. The unsystematic nature of such consolidation is stated, despite the existence of a general concept of an ecotechnopark in by-laws.Scientific novelty: Russian science lacks comprehensive studies of the impact of the industrial symbiosis concept on the regulation development. This paper substantiates the need for detailed consolidation of the industrial symbiosis concept and its main features in legislation. The author draws attention to the importance of interdisciplinary research on ways to legally consolidate economic approaches in regulations, and emphasizes the significant potential of symbiotic approaches to ensure regional development. Recommendations on possible ways to improve the international legal regulation of eco-industrial parks are given.Practical significance: the proposed suggestions and conclusions can be used to improve Russian legislation and its application.
