And Migration

The study focuses on long-term migration in the Arctic zone of the Russian Federation. The Arctic migration trends are very different from those observed in the rest of the Russian Federation. All attractive Arctic territories are washout ones, which means that people do not stay there forever. Migration trends in the Arctic are understudied, almost all demographic studies with a few exceptions have been carried out by regions of the Russian Federation. The analysis was based on the data from the Rosstat Database of indicators by municipal formations. We used indicators of population number, number of arrivals and departures by flows (migration in total, inter-regional, intra-regional, international) and by 69 municipalities that make up the Arctic zone of the Russian Federation. The purpose of the study is to show heterogeneity of the Arctic municipal formations and to develop a typology of the territories. The paper singles out the correlation between migration preferences of young people aged 15-19 years and the access to a university in the municipality. In general, the Arctic is unattractive for young people, and even the access to a university does not correlate with migration growth in all cities, except for Arkhangelsk. We have discovered which territories are the most attractive for different age groups of migrants. This information is important for territorial development strategies. Based on the research results, we can identify several important trends: concentration of population in big multi-profile cities, depopulation of inter-city territories, symmetry of economic and migration attractiveness of the region, relative stability of already developed territories with rather favorable natural and climatic conditions.

Russia in XXI century conducts intensive scientific, economic, transport research in the Arctic zone, which is facilitated by certain climatic conditions. Our state is making great efforts to develop this region and protect its richest natural resources. Although there are certain climatic and ecological changes that lead to warming and shrinking ice cover.

Arctic Policy

The article discusses current issues of Arctic governance. The main motives of the growing interest of the world community to this region are revealed. Comparative analysis of the conceptual framework and key priorities of the Arctic policy of the Russian Federation and other circumpolar powers based on a study of their national Arctic strategies. It was determined that the main difference between the Russian model of managing the Arctic zone lies in the priority of exploitation of natural resources on the basis of creating an optimal configuration of the main factors of industrial production, while the policy of foreign northern countries is aimed primarily on the sustainable development of the Arctic territories and at achieving their social sustainability through the comprehensive development of Arctic local communities. In our opinion, it is advisable for the Russian Federation to apply such a model where the state vector of Arctic policy is oriented, first of all, to the social component of territorial development as for the basis for a comprehensive balanced development of the Arctic zone and for ensuring the country’s national security. Namely, – the implementation of the model of sustainable development of the Arctic territories, the main elements of which are rational and careful nature resource use in the Arctic zone, limitation of negative environmental impact and conservation of the biodiversity of the Arctic territories, orientation on the national policy not only on the indigenous peoples of the North, but also on the local population living here, improving the quality, conditions and standard of living, as well as close mutually beneficial international cooperation on municipal, regional and global levels.

Introduction. Despite the improvement of technologies used in mining enterprises, most miners of the Arctic zone of Russia has harmful working conditions. However, miners’ health status is affected not only by harmful production factors, but also by severe climatic conditions of the Arctic, harmful behavioral factors (e.g. smoking), and the processes of natural aging of the organism. The aim of the study was to differentiate and hygienically assess the professional and non-professional fractions of the annual increase in risk (AIR) of chronic health disorders of miners and their comparison with officially approved hazard classes of working conditions. Material and methods. The results of a targeted periodic medical examination of 700 miners of the underground apatite-nepheline and copper-nickel mines were analyzed. 301 cases out of them, according to the developed method, were included in the studies. Two age groups and four seniority groups of workers have been formed. Results. The results of the study showed the possibility of using the criterion of AIR of chronic diseases for assessing the degree of harmfulness of working conditions based on health indices for miners in the Arctic zone of Russia, Miners have professional AIR of diseases of the musculoskeletal system, digestive organs, respiratory organs and nervous system exceeding the control levels by 2.3, 7.0, 5.0 7.0 times, respectively. Conclusion. The values of professional and non- professional factors for the risk of diseases of the musculoskeletal system and respiratory organs were drawn to almost coincide, which indicates a pronounced adverse effect of environmental factors on the health of miners in the Arctic zone of the Russian Federation.

The article is devoted to the study of modern theoretical and legal problems of ensuring biological security in the Arctic zone of the Russian Federation. The published Draft of Federal law No. 850485-7“On biological security of the Russian Federation”provides an opportunity to take a closer look at the problem of legal provision of biological security in relation to the most vulnerable ecosystems, and, first of all, the Arctic. The article considers the most important features and potential risks of the Arctic zone of the Russian Federation of critical importance from the point of view of biological hazards, the features (specificity) of biological safety problems from the point of view of organizational-legal features and, in particular, from the perspective of environmental law. It is proved that, given the special situation of the Arctic zone of the Russian Federation, in addition to the base Federal law“About biological safety” required a specific law on biological and ecological safety of the Arctic zone of the Russian Federation, which should be generated on a slightly different model than the draft Federal law «On biological safety”, to wear the most specific, applied nature.

The paper considers the priorities of the state policy of the Russian Federation in the Arctic, from the point of view of the development of scientific research, identified by the main strategic documents of national policy and security in the Arctic zone of the Russian Federation. Measures for implementation of priorities in the development of scientific research in the Arctic can be divided into three main sections: 1. Scientific projects and expeditions in the Arctic; 2. International activities; 3. Coordination and implementation of integrated research in the Arctic. Note that currently the Ministry of education and science of the Russian Federation develops the Analytical Coordination Program “Comprehensive research of the Arctic and Antarctic”, in cooperation with the federal state bodies and Governance of the Subjects of the Arctic zone of the Russian Federation. The mechanism of the Program will ensure coordination between state bodies for integrated scientific researches in the Arctic in the interests of economic and scientific development of the region, and the creation of the scientific, technical and technological reserve in order to ensure of national security in the Arctic zone of the Russian Federation.
