Abstract: The aim of the paper is to give the overview of current state forest policy in Russia. First of all, we considered the history of institutional environment of Russian forest complex since ancient times and stated that the branch always suffered from a bad quality of state management. Then we investigated the acting forest legislation based on the Forest Code of the Russian Federation and the main reforms performed by the Government during 2000s. Last chapter of our study is dedicated to the role of Kyoto process in the long-run development of the Russian forest complex. Our conclusion is that we expect an improvement of governmental perception of forest branch as an important sector of the national economy within next decades
