Abstract
Today’s environment economic is important. Improving environmental performance On the one hand, requires knowledge of environmental threats to communities and on the other hand presents new approaches need to be developed to ensure environmental sustainability. Seems to be more research into the environmental quality of the affected communities has been neglected the quality of institutions in environmental protection. Institutional environment, one of the most important elements of the institutional framework - a structure that forms an economic system. An economic system based on the institutional environment is formed and maintained. The institutional environment - which consists of a set of institutions - state and market rules provide for a mechanism in addition to the structural relationships between entities in the economic system. This approach is economics, institutional support, and the use of recently developed measures of institutional quality (IQ), to evaluate the environmental performance of the selected countries, in result of this research implies that development of institutions in different countries, and the important factor is the sensitivity of communities to environmental quality.
