This article evaluates the relationship among the railroad staff of the Far East during the most dramatic events in the political life of the country at that time—repressions. As a rule, Russian academic literature indicates that few workers perceived the Soviet state’s mechanisms of pressure negatively. This article demonstrates that the railroad staff’s position was far more diverse than traditionally argued, which is a result of the broad variety of social groups working for the railroad in the Far East. The article demonstrates this diversity of opinions by focusing on those events that affected a significant number of railroad workers.

S.N. Syromyatnikov, whose views are commonly referred to as orientalism, repeatedly dwelled on historical tasks, the mission of Russia in the Far East. The most important direction of Russias foreign policy in this region was to become rapprochement with Asia, since by uniting with the Far Eastern countries, it could successfully resist Europe. China had to be at the center of Russias eastern policy, and Russias main task was to play the role of patroness and cultural counselor, protecting the eastern neighbor from European countries and Japan. The attitude towards the East and the understanding of Russias tasks in Asia was largely determined through the rejection of everything from the West. A special task was assigned to the Russian population of the eastern borderlands, in which S.N. Syromyatnikov saw a special potential for the development of Russia and strengthening of its position in Asia. The East was perceived by S.N. Syromyatnikov as a germ of a new Russia, to which he found a lot of evidence in the relationship between Russian and indigenous eastern peoples. Therefore, in S.N. Syromyatnikovs point of view, to ensure the historical future of Russia it was necessary to concentrate the main efforts in the East.

В статье рассматривается вопрос различия социальноэкономического развития субъектов между собой по различным статистическим показателям. Для этого был рассчитан специальный коэффициент, с помощью которого проанализировано развитие субъектов по отношению друг к другу и динамика этого коэффициента. Для его полнейшего анализа был взят период с 2005 по 2017 г. с рассмотрением трехлетних периодов и каждого года в отдельности. Были посчитаны значения коэффициента по всем регионам с выделением регионов с наибольшими и наименьшими значениями. Показаны субъекты с наиболее положительной или отрицательной динамикой данного коэффициента. В ходе анализа коэффициента были выявлены взаимосвязи развития регионов между собой в период социальноэкономических кризисов и восстановительного периода после них. Было определено, что развитие регионов зависело от их специализации, экономикогеографического и транспортногеографического положения, агломерационного эффекта, а также качества управления. На примере субъектов Дальневосточного региона был произведен региональный анализ данного коэффициента. Особенным отличием Дальнего Востока от других регионов являлось то, что это территория нового освоения с активным развитием добывающих производств. Были даны объяснения динамики коэффициента на примере субъектов этого региона с их определенной особенностью. Была выделена взаимосвязь между коэффициентом сравнения социальноэкономических показателей с размером ВРП на душу населения и их сходная динамика. Также было установлено, что высокие показатели коэффициента прежде всего зависят от наличия добывающей промышленности в субъектах и от ее высокой доли в структуре ВРП. Другие факторы для этого коэффициента оказались менее значимы. К ним можно отнести обрабатывающие производства, транспорт, наличие больших и крупных городов для субъектов Дальнего Востока. Также была выявлена взаимосвязь динамики коэффициента по годам среди субъектов и вызвавшие их социальноэкономические явления. Как было установлено, динамика коэффициента сравнения социальноэкономических показателей имело общую характеристику для большинства субъектов Дальневосточного региона.The article considers the issue of differences in the socioeconomic development of the subjects among themselves according to various statistical indicators. For this, a special coefficient was calculated, with the help of which the development of regions in relation to each other and the dynamics of this coefficient are analyzed. For its fullest analysis, took the period from 2005 to 2017 with a consideration of threeyear periods and each year separately. The coefficient values were calculated for all regions with the allotment of regions with the largest and smallest values. The subjects with the most positive or negative dynamics of this coefficient are shown. During the analysis of the coefficient, the interconnections of the development of regions among themselves during the period of socioeconomic crises and the recovery period after them were revealed. It was determined that the development of regions depended on their specialization, economicgeographical and transportgeographical position, agglomeration effect, as well as the quality of management. On the example of the subjects of the Far Eastern region, a regional analysis of this coefficient was carried out. A special difference between the Far East and other regions was that this territory of new mastering with the active development of extractive industries. Explanations of the dynamics of the coefficient were given by the example of the subjects of this region with their specific feature. The relationship between the coefficient of comparison of socioeconomic indicators with the size of GRP per capita and their similar dynamics was highlighted. It was also found that high coefficient ratios primarily depend on the availability of extractive industries in the subjects and, first of all, on its high share in the structure of GRP. Other factors for this coefficient were less significant. These include manufacturing industry, transport, the presence of large and large cities for the subjects of the Far East. The relationship between the dynamics of the coefficient over the years among the regions and the socioeconomic phenomena that caused them was also revealed. As it was established, the dynamics of the coefficient of comparison of socioeconomic indicators bore a common characteristic for most subjects of the Far Eastern region.

AbstractThe why and the how of knowledge production are examined in the case of the transnational cooperation between the directors of observatories in the Far East who drew up unified typhoon-warning codes in the period 1900–1939. The why is prompted by the socioeconomic interests of the local chambers of commerce and international telegraphic companies, although this urge has the favourable wind of Far Eastern meteorologists’ ideology of voluntarist internationalism. The how entails the persistent pursuit of consensus (on ends rather than means) in international meetings where non-binding resolutions on codes and procedures are adopted. The outcome is the co-production of standardised knowledge, that is, the development of a series of processes and practices that co-produce both knowledge and ideas about the social order in a force field characterised by negotiations and power struggles.

The pre-emptive right to purchase and sell agricultural land by the authorities of the constituent entities of the Russian Federation, the maximum size of agricultural land plots, the allocation of shares among rural residents and some other features of agricultural legislation are restrictions on the realization of the right of rural residents to own land. The lack of adequate infrastructure in rural areas, especially in the Far East that fall under the Far Eastern Hectare project, is also seen as an obstacle for rural residents to exercise their right to land.

The article describes the directions of distribution of books for children in the Eastern regions of Russia that have appeared in the last decade. Based on a combination of landscape-reconstructing principles, surveys, and comparative typological analysis, the article presents data that expand previously studied aspects of the functioning of the main channels for the sale of books for children in the Siberian-Far Eastern region. It is shown that books for children are the largest segment of the Russian book market, which has been growing since 2008. At the regional level, they are widely presented in all book distribution channels: bookselling networks and independent stores; online stores; book departments of supermarkets (non-core retail); kiosks and stalls; book fairs. The purpose of the article is to analyze the current trends in the distribution of books for children in the region. Positive trends typical for the children book market in the Siberian-far Eastern region are identified. They are: the activity of children book supermarkets, the appearance of independent small stores of club-backstage format, the organization of specialized children Internet projects; increasing the importance of regional book exhibitions, fairs, festivals and holidays in the distribution of books for children; projects support by major Russian patrons. The significance of the study of new practices for the distribution of literature for children and youth in the region is determined by their influence on the formation of a new conceptual model for the popularization of reading, based on the idea of culture as a powerful lever of socio-economic development of territories.
