At the beginning of the XXI century, in the context of the further complex and contradictory development of the world economic process, the strengthening of the competitive struggle of states for markets, an important problem remains the struggle of countries with limited natural resources for the possession of territories rich in these resources, or for the most profitable cooperation with the countries - owners of such territories. At the same time, it is necessary to take into account the geopolitical situation in a particular region and build relationships with these countries taking into account its peculiarities. The article analyzes Japan’s strategic interests in the Russian Far East in the light of the problems under consideration. As you know, the natural resources of Japan are very scarce, only limestone and coal deposits are found in more or less sufficient quantities. At the same time, minerals such as oil, gas, iron ore, etc., are present on the territory, but in insufficient quantities for the development of metallurgy, energy and other life-supporting industries. Thus, Japan, being one of the most economically and technologically developed countries, is at the same time one of the poorest in terms of mineral resources. Based on this, it is relevant to analyze Japan’s economic strategy in solving the tasks under consideration in relation to neighboring states and, in particular, with Russia, which at the present stage is an important military-political, geopolitical and economic player in East Asia. Russia has the most modern means to solve the main problems of national security and territorial integrity, an important component of which is the region of the Far East, which occupies an essential place in the system of modern international economic relations.

The economic development of Russia, given the country’s vast territory, the distribution patterns of natural resources and population, and the diverse climate conditions, is logically uneven and characterized by territorial variation. Particular focus of the federal government should be placed on the conditions emerging in Siberia and the Russian Far East. The major limiting factor is the increasing population outflows to the central federal subjects of the Russian Federation, particularly visible among the working-age population. Apart from it, another limiting factor is the natural conditions in these two federal districts, namely, the harsh weather conditions, the typical inland climate, seismic activity, etc. Moreover, a major part of Siberia and the Far East is designated as a territory with special requirements in terms of natural resource development, which is due to the existing national reserves and parks. The Baikal natural area, the basin of Lake Baikal, are of particular importance. These factors have brought to the foreground the need for a break-up of the Siberia Federal District and the Far East Federal District to improve the economic efficiency of such spacious areas of the country. There is a proposal to establish a new federal district known under the working reference as “Central Eurasia” and meant to include the Republics of Buryatia, Tyva, Khakassia, and Sakha (Yakutia), the Trans-Baikal and Krasnoyarsk Territories and the Irkutsk region. The proposed spatial arrangement of productive forces would improve the efficiency of use of both labor and natural resources.

Представлена научная биография геолога Эдуарда Эдуардовича Анерта (1865–1946), внесшего огромный вклад в геологическое исследование российского Дальнего Востока и северо-восточного Китая. В 1895 г. он начал исследования вдоль Транссибирской магистрали, а позднее продолжил их в Приморье, на Сахалине и в Маньчжурии. Анерт основал Дальневосточный геологический комитет, организовал комплексное изучение минеральных ресурсов региона. Эмигрировав в Китай, он продолжил исследования в районах, прилегающих к Китайско-Восточной железной дороге, стал соучредителем Общества изучения Маньчжурского края и его музея (ныне – музей Хэйлунцзянской провинции). Результатом его многолетней деятельности на Дальнем Востоке стала публикация более двухсот научных трудов, многие из которых не потеряли актуальности и сегодня. В статье использованы материалы архивов и библиотек США и Китая. This article presents the scientific biography of the geologist Eduard Eduardovich Ahnert (1865–1946), who contributed much to the geological research in the Far East, both Russian Far East and the Northeast China. Having begun his research along the Trans-Siberian Railway in 1895, he continued his work in Primorye, Sakhalin, and Manchuria. Ahnert established the Far Eastern Geological Committee and succeeded in organizing a comprehensive study of the regional mineral resources. Having emigrated to China, he continued his research along the Sino-Eastern Railway, became a co-founder of the Society for the Study of Manchuria and its museum (now the museum of the Heilongjiang Province). His multi-year activity in the Far East resulted in more than two hundred scientific publications, many of them have not lost their relevance today. Writing the article the author used materials from foreign archives and libraries of USA and China.

Развитие научно-образовательной сферы в передовых странах мира за период с 1970 по 2020 годы характеризуется усилением международной конкуренции. В статье дан анализ территориальных особенностей и тенденций инвестирования в научно-образовательную сферу, динамики численности исследователей с учеными степенями и их подготовки по регионам Сибири и Дальнего Востока России. В регионах Сибири и Дальнего Востока в трансформации научно-образовательной сферы после 1991 года наметились негативные тенденции. В развитых странах мира в отличие от России, объемы инвестиций в научную сферу постоянно увеличиваются. Распределение фонда оплаты труда на научные исследования и разработки по субъектам Уральского, Сибирского и Дальневосточного федеральных округов характеризуется существенной территориальной дифференциацией и в большинстве субъектов оплата труда исследователей ниже среднего российского уровня. Большинство субъектов Уральского, Сибирского и Дальневосточного федеральных округов имеют недостаточное финансирование по текущим затратам на научные исследования и разработки. The development of the scientific and educational sphere in the advanced countries of the world for the period from 1970 to 2020 is characterized by increased international competition. The article analyzes the territorial features and trends of investment in the scientific and educational sphere, the dynamics of the number of researchers with academic degrees and their training in the regions of Siberia and the Russian Far East. In the regions of Siberia and the Far East, there were negative trends in the transformation of the scientific and educational sphere after 1991. In the developed countries of the world, in contrast to Russia, the volume of investment in the scientific sphere is constantly increasing. The distribution of the remuneration fund for research and development in the subjects of the Ural, Siberian and Far Eastern Federal Districts is characterized by significant territorial differentiation and in most subjects the remuneration of researchers is below the average Russian level. Most of the subjects of the Ural, Siberian and Far Eastern Federal Districts have insufficient funding for current research and development costs.

The paper summarizes information on chromosome numbers (CNs) of the Grass species (Poaceae) in the flora of Russian Federation, obtained on the original material, most part - from the Russian Far East (RFE). In some species the CNs are known in Russia or in the world only from RFE, in some – from one locality or few, or from one subregion of RFE. The grass species in RFE often occur in mountain regions and near seacoasts; some species are endemics, some were studied near the limits of their geographical distribution areas. The diversity of CNs, the special features of the CNs distribution in some grass groups are discussed. The alien species are abundant in RFE, and their CNs are also involved in the study. For karyologically polymorphous species further studies are needed.

Development institutions are an important modern instrument of government regulation of the economy in all developed countries. The system of development institutions of the Russian Federation includes the federal and regional development institutions. Key federal development institutions include such well-known state corporations as the investment fund of the Russian Federation; the State Corporation "Bank for Development and Foreign Economic Activity (Vnesheconombank)"; the state corporation "Russian Corporation of Nanotechnologies," etc. According to experts of the Ministry of Economic Development of the Russian Federation, about 200 regional development institutions operate on the territory of the constituent entities of the Russian Federation. The objectives of this extensive system of development institutions so far have been to overcome the so-called "market failures," which cannot be optimally realized by the market mechanisms, and to promote the sustained economic growth of a country or an individual region. In November 2020, the Government of the Russian Federation announced the reform of the system of development institutions in the country. The article analyzes the goals and main directions of the announced reform. On the example of the system of development institutions of the Far East, an attempt was made to assess its possible consequences.

The insect fauna of Mongolia includes about 12,000 species belonging to 24 orders. The only order, Orthoptera, is richer in species in Mongolia than in the Far East of Russia. All other units show greater diversity in the Russian Far East than in Mongolia. There are a significant number of very interesting endemics. Tizanuras of the family Machilidae are relic insects, represented by five species in Mongolia. As examples of widespread Central Asian insects, a number of species of darkling beetles and weevils can be indicated, most of which are endemic to Mongolia or Central Asia.
