In this<br>study, however, the object of study is an international<br>environmental regime in Northwestern Russia<br>which is based on collaboration between national<br>and regional decision-makers, funding agencies and<br>programs. The effectiveness of international environmental<br>regimes has both institutional and environmental<br>dimensions. Institutional effectiveness<br>refers to a regime’s capacity to fulfil the aims set for<br>it. Environmental effectiveness refers to impacts of<br>cooperation on the state of the environment and<br>to the use of natural resources. These two dimensions<br>of effectiveness do not necessarily support<br>each other. In this study the participants in international<br>environmental cooperation in Northwestern<br>Russia have been asked to evaluate the regime and<br>its effectiveness. 50 Russian and 20 Nordic participants<br>have been interviewed for the study during<br>winter 2003–2004. In addition, a questionnaire was<br>sent to project managers working in Northwestern<br>Russia in the fall 2004 and 50 of them responded.<br>This article gives an overview of the results from<br>the interviews and questionnaires. Respondents to<br>interviews and questionnaires consider international<br>environmental cooperation in Northwestern Russia<br>institutionally effective, but they differ in their evaluation<br>of environmental effectiveness.</p> ER -
