Abstract

The purpose of the article is to reveal the theoretical and methodological foundations and features of the economic mechanism used in the field of environmental protection, creating a scientific and informational basis for improving and developing the economic mechanism of the environment, in particular, atmospheric air protection in Armenia. In order to achieve the stated goal, the task was set to study the necessity of applying the economic mechanism in the field of environmental protection from an economic point of view, to identify the prerequisites and background of the formation of the economic mechanism, to distinguish the main elements and types of the economic mechanism, to introduce the tasks of the mechanism and the possibilities of their realization with the help of separated elements. The research was carried out using such methods as historical, abstractive, analytical and comparison, graphical representation, induction and deduction methods. As a result of the conducted research, it can be concluded that in a market economy the economic mechanism plays a key role in environmental protection. The economic mechanism is aimed at solving the problem of externalities caused by the market failure, the existence of which is the reason of ecological problems. Consequently, through the systematic and effective use of the elements of the economic mechanism, it is possible to achieve the desired ecological and economic results. However, the economic mechanism of environmental protection in Armenia is of a "soft" nature, which is not justified from the point of view of ensuring sustainable development and ecological security, therefore, the results of this study can contribute to the improvement and development of the national mechanism.
