Environmental Well-Being as an Object of Legal Support in Foreign and Russian Law Enforcement Practice
( Pp. 203-208)

The purpose of writing a research work is to disclose the content of the definition of "environmental well-being" as an object of legal support in foreign and Russian law enforcement practice and to develop, on this theoretical basis, scientific and practical recommendations for improving legislation in the field under study. The article examines the differences in foreign and Russian approaches to assessing environmental well-being, identifies their advantages and disadvantages. Conclusions. The study reveals that at present, in foreign practice, the need to ensure social and environmental well-being begins to be taken into account when calculating the indices of "happiness", taking into account the environmental component, at the highest level: ministries are established, the index is determined, which is taken into account in social and economic development. It is substantiated that GDP, which is the basic Russian indicator, even taking into account the "human development index" (HDI), is currently not able to objectively assess the dynamics of the socio-ecological well-being of the population, the degree of progress of a sustainable society. Taking into account the positive foreign experience, it is concluded that it is advisable to supplement it in the regulatory documents on the analysis and forecasting of socio-economic development with an alternative indicator - the "indicator of socio-economic well-being (genuine progress)", developed on the basis of the Genuine Progress Indicator (GPI) methodology. A number of specific scientific and practical recommendations are formulated to improve legislation in the field under study, in particular, to legalize the definition of "environmental well-being"; clarification of the definition of "state regulation of regional development", its goals, objectives, focusing on the focus of this impact not only "on improving the quality and living standards", but also on the "environmental well-being" of the population.
