The participation of European entomologists from among the Austro- Hungarian army prisoners of World War I in the research of the Siberian and Amur entomofauna is considered. Despite the fact that they were doing this in conditions of lack of freedom, their mass collection yielded appreciable results. The biographical information about Karl Ferdinand Mandl (1891– 1989), Stepan Jurechek (1877–1940), Hermann Frib (1877–1947), Josef Michel (1890–1963) and Alfred Biener (1892(?)–1954), which are known from publications of entomologists processed their collections or materials, is given. Some little-known events from the activities in the South Ussuriysk branch of the Amur department of the Russian Geographical Society in Nikolsk-Ussuriysk, and in the life of Evgenia Nikolaevna Klobukova-Alisova (1889–1962) and Alexei Ivanovich Kurentsov (1896–1975) are described.

For several centuries the overall trend in the world development has been along the way paved by Western civilization. Hence, the predominant flow has been based on borrowed Western cultural features. The issue of cultural interaction among nations with different culture types became fairly topical in contemporary society. Humankind now faces the legacy of moral decline of the past century and is trying to find a way out of its ideological dead end through other cultures and civilizations. In addition, the globalization processes that developed towards the end of the last century have also embraced the nations' cultural ties, turning the cross-cultural communication into an integral part of humankind's existence. The unique role of Russia in Northeastern Asia calls for an answer to the following question: Is there any cultural interaction between the Russian Far East, on the one hand, and the East Asian nations, on the other? And if so, what are its manifestations and how big are they?

The paper is intended to identify areas of management application for the formation of sustainable development of cities and seaports. Special attention is paid to the sea ports of the Russian Far East. At the same time, a special study was carried out, which allowed to distinguish four special clusters. Each of these clusters requires a special application of the forces of all levels of management to develop appropriate strategies. The role of labour potential in the implementation of the proposed strategies was also noted.

With the increasing role played by tourism worldwide, Russia is turning to use tourism as an effective tool for overall development. Primorsky region is one of the leading tourist destinations in the Russian Far East where several Small and Medium-sized Tourism Enterprises (SMTEs) are operating to offer a variety of products, all of which constitute a tourism experience. Thus, there is a growing interest in the performance and management methods of such companies. Through the analysis of literature, this paper discusses tourism trends in Primorsky region and studies SMTEs working in there through exploring their characteristics and the challenges they are facing. The paper also investigates Strategic Entrepreneurship (SE) as an appropriate management method for managing SMTEs in Primorsky region. The study finds that both components of SE positively affect the performance of SMTEs. Consequently, the application of SE in SMTEs in Primorsky region might enable managers and owners of SMTEs to overcome the various challenges and shortcomings experienced by these companies and to exploit their resources in a way that helps them achieve the best possible performance without waiting for large investments in the region.
