“…Closed-loop Economics is a very young discipline that deals with the efficiency of using scarce resources. Here we can observe the relationship between the rational use of natural resources in ensuring economic growth and job creation [9]. Circular Economics appears in various fields of research.…”

The problem of legal regulation of the circular economy and ecology, sustainable management of municipal solid waste at the legal and organizational levels both in the Russian Federation and in the world is now coming to the fore and requires immediate solutions. Examining strategic planning documents and other legal acts, the authors attempted to examine current legal problems in the study area in the context of modern state of ecological policy of Russia and the implementation of circular economy, realizing the sustainable development goals of the UN in the environmental area. The authors suggest that a legal assessment of the possibility of transition of Russian industrial companies to a closed-loop economy is necessary, which is associated with an active approach to processing the materials of their products after the stage of use. In conclusion, a number of conclusions are drawn about the legal acts adopted in the Russian Federation and the organizational measures being implemented that contribute to solving various problems related to the sustainable development of the most important segment of the economy and the environment – the disposal and processing of waste, reducing its volume and the possibility of secondary use due to the development of the circular economy. Innovation is an important condition for this transition.

The article covers in detail the issues of interaction between the mechanisms of economic regulation and the ecology of stability, as they are increasingly intertwined with each other. Every year various conferences are held around the world to find out how the economy can develop in harmony with environmental security and stability. Therefore, there is the term sustainable development, which implies development that organically links the satisfaction of the material needs of the current generation of the inhabitants of the Earth with the preservation of the environment, its fossils and living resources, in such a way as to ensure the maximum potential for growth and future generations of the inhabitants of the planet. The problems of growing pollution, the unsustainable use of scarce natural resources, and increasing people's awareness of the importance of environmental security and its sustainability have influenced the emergence of political ecology. This branch of science (which lies between ecology and politics), this science should influence economic models, including environmental issues, rational resources, consumption issues and waste disposal. Another very young discipline that deals with the efficient use of scarce resources is the circular economy. Here, too, there is a trade-off between sustainable use of natural resources and economic growth and job creation. The circular economy is emerging in various areas of research. Today, governments of various countries, companies and individuals are increasingly aware that the use of technology and the growth of economic potential should not adversely affect the environment. Since the governments of many countries (mostly developed) have shown an increasing interest in the environmental situation, we began to meet more terms dedicated to the preservation of the environment. As a result of this policy, we often encounter terminology such as: sustainable development, global environmental trends, green economy, ecotourism, environmental protection, regional issues, technological impact on the environment, eco-political issues, social responsibility, corporate responsibility

Biosphere reserves are protected areas vital for the preservation of living and inanimate nature, including the protection of anthropogenic values and cultural heritage. The basins of the Mura, Drava, and Danube rivers stretch through Slovenia, Croatia, Austria, Hungary, and Serbia and form a unique spatial unity. The Biosphere Reserve concept defines about 300,000 hectares of core and buffer zones and around 700,000 hectares of transition zones. This large, primarily marshy area is rich in natural and cultural heritage. This area is called “the Amazon of Europe” and represents the world’s first Transboundary UNESCO Biosphere Reserve, “Mura-Drava-Danube,” among five countries. This biosphere reserve is important for the preservation of the natural and cultural values of the entire region. Especially rare plant and animal representatives live in this unique geographical unity. Some species inhabit only this area. A total of 900,000 people living around this reserve have a rich cultural tradition and heritage that needs to be protected. The objective of the research is to examine the function that the selected protected areas have in the sustainable development of tourism. Quantitative methodology was used in the research. An analysis of the conducted questionnaire was performed using the SPSS v.21 software, as well as a comparative analysis of the attitudes of 1295 residents from three countries. Residents’ attitudes refer to the level of ecological, economic, socio-cultural, and institutional sustainability of this biosphere reserve as a tourist destination. The research results indicate that the four dimensions of sustainability have significant values and that the selected areas have an important function in the sustainable development of tourism.

Economy and Ecology: Encounters and Interweaving

Abstract: In this editorial text, we point to the importance and development of disciplines that closely link economic sciences with ecology. Drawing on the most important literature in these fields, we have highlighted the trends that are popular today in both fields (double eco features).
