A new approach to a plasma kinetic description is discussed, the beginnings of
which were published recently (Erofeev 1997a). It is
shown that calculations of the three-wave collision integral following this
approach confirm the intensity and structure of the three-wave collision
integral obtained in the traditional theory. The reported kinetics extend the
area of applicability for the weak plasma turbulence theory: apart from waves
it properly accounts for the effect of various other plasma nonlinear
structures of the type of solitons, drift vortices, collapsing cavities and so
on. Some directions for further studies are also discussed.
