我国的55个少数民族大多分布在我国自然条件相对较差,经济发展较为滞后的中西部地区。并且,西部大多数少数民族地区的可持续发展能力都较差,这是因为其文化素质较低,受法律的渲染少,缺乏环保意识,生态环境受到严重的破坏。因此,本论文主要以法律保护为中心,对少数民族地区的环境保护展开研究,深入对其环境法律的漏洞和原因进行分析,并提出合理的解决途径来帮助完善少数民族地区的环境法律保护。 Most of the 55 ethnic minorities in our country are located in the central and western regions where our natural conditions are relatively poor and our economy lags behind. Moreover, most of the ethnic minority areas in the western region have poor sustainable development capability due to their low cultural quality, less law rendering, lack of environmental awareness and serious damage to the ecological environment. Therefore, this dissertation mainly focuses on legal protection, studies the environmental protection in ethnic minority areas, analyzes the loopholes and causes of environmental laws in depth, and puts forward reasonable solutions to help improve the environmental law protection in ethnic minority areas.
