The subject of this research is a set of legal norms regulating social relations that arise in the context of use and protection of the Arctic zone of the Russian Federation. The goal lies in formulation of the conclusions and recommendations for the improvement of legal regulation in this sphere. The relevance of the selected topic is substantiated by interest of the state in the development of Arctic Zone as a strategic resource base for accelerating the economic growth of the Russian Federation. Among the priority national interests are also the environmental protection of region, conservation of the native habitat and traditional way of living of the indigenous small-numbered peoples. This emphasizes the importance of intensification of use and preservation of the vulnerable areas of the region. The author dwells on the current issues of the formation of territories of traditional management of natural resources and legal status of their lands; rights of the indigenous peoples to land in their native habitat and traditional economy; provision of land plots to entrepreneurs who are the residents of the Arctic Zone; protection of the Arctic lands, etc. The conclusion is made on the existence of gaps and contradictions in legislation of the indicated sphere, which requires revision and improvement. This pertains to the questions of formation of the territories of traditional management of natural resources, maintenance and modification of their boundaries, establishment of the special protection regime in the federal law, etc. The scientific novelty lies in the fact that the adopted simplified procedure for providing entrepreneurs who are residents of the Arctic Zone with land plots aimed at expansion of the development of natural resources of the Arctic, may negatively affect the status of lands and overall fragile environment of the Arctic Zone, and thus, lead to infringement upon the interests of the local population, including the indigenous peoples. The author formulates a number of recommendations for the improvement of legislation, among which is the amendments to the Paragraph 2 of the Article 39.34 of the Land Code of the Russian Federation on the establishment of highly restricted cases of termination of permits using the land plots by the indigenous small-numbered peoples.

Abstract The current plans of the Russian Federation to intensify significantly economic and other activities in Russian Arctic include the widespread exploitation of Arctic natural resources. At the same time, however, high vulnerability of the Arctic environment has been recognized in the country’s legislation. The plans for development in such a vulnerable region as the Arctic give rise to concern as to how it can be realized sustainably. For this reason, it is useful to examine one legal tool of environmental protection, an environmental assessment (EA) procedure, since this institution at least provides the possibility to enable the exploitation of Arctic’s natural resources in a way that protects the environment. Yet, as the article will point out, the conditions for effective EA have been in recent years severely limited, which can be seen in the current legislation. It is hence justifiable to be concerned of the future of Arctic vulnerable environment and, as the article proposes, restore some of the elements of the past EA legislation, which enable a stronger EA mechanism.

The article explores issues relevant to ecological and natural resources law concerning the Arctic as a specific object of use of natural resources of the region and their protection, i.e. its ecological safety. The importance of this study for the authors is due to the intensive environmentally significant activities being carried out in the region. Geographical and environmental specific features of the Arctic are noted - a large part of the territory of the Russian Federation, a significant geopolitical factor in the life of Russia. It is emphasized that the Arctic as a natural territory has a complex natural structure as a system of natural objects and resources, the relations about which are regulated simultaneously by the whole set of ecological and natural resources legislation and law. As an object of environmental safety, according to art. 72 of the Russian Constitution, the regulation of these relations is jointly administered by the Russian Federation and the subjects of the Russian Federation. The authors draw attention to the need to improve the legal regulation of environmental relations in the Arctic, in particular, in the form of the adoption of a special law on the Arctic, and defects in the development of ecological legislation of the Russian Federation. The main task is highlighted, which should be addressed by the development of ecological and natural resources legislation - the establishment of special regimes of nature use and environmental protection in the Arctic zone of the Russian Federation.

Introduction. The article analyzes the experience of creating and functioning zones of preferential economic regimes in the Asia-Pacific region. It is shown that in order to create better conditions for doing business on their territory, attract foreign and domestic investment, introduce innovative technologies, increase production volumes, increase the degree of localization and import substitution, increase exports of products and services, create new jobs. The APR countries are focused on the development and implementation of preferential economic regimes.Materials and methods. The methodological basis for the study of the formation and functioning of zones of preferential regimes are General scientific methods (analysis, synthesis, analogy) and special methods for analyzing the enclave approach, the theory of growth poles and growth triangles. The materials of the Far East development Corporation and the Ministry of the Russian Federation of the Far East and the Arctic development on the analysis of the practice of applying preferential regimes operating in the territory of the Russian Federation and abroad were used.Research result. The creation of preferential economic regimes with developed infrastructure in the last four decades in the Asia-Pacific countries has become a widespread practice that has allowed to expand the sales market, getting closer to the direct consumer, and minimize the costs associated with production and logistics through tax incentives and preferences.Discussion and conclusion. The Russian Far East, which is part of the Asia-Pacific region of the world, is inferior to the economic zones of the Asia- Pacific countries in terms of infrastructure quality and logistics development. It is concluded that additional measures are needed to support preferential regimes, increase investment attractiveness and improve the investment climate to ensure the competitiveness of the Far East in the Asia-Pacific region of the world.

The creation of unique scientific facilities of the “Megascience” class is a very complex and lengthy organizational and technical process, for the implementation of which the resources of several states are usually involved. In connection with the participation in the creation and implementation of a scientific project of the “Megascience” class of several states, it becomes necessary to distribute the rights, duties, costs and powers of project management among the participants. Currently, the Russian Federation lacks a sufficient level of legal regulation of projects of the “Megascience” class. Based on the analysis of Russian and foreign experience in the implementation of scientific projects of the “Megascience” class, the article presents proposals for improving the legal regulation of these projects being implemented on the territory of the Russian Federation. The article also discusses the specific problems that one has to face when implementing projects of the “Megascience” class in Russia, and the ways to solve them. In addition, the authors’ definitions of such key terms as “Megascience” class project, “unique scientific facility of the “Megascience class” and “scientific collaboration,” which are absent in the current legislation, are proposed. This research was supported by the Russian Foundation for Basic Research (grant 18-29-15036mk “Models for legal regulation of unique scientific facilities of ‘Megascience’ class at the national and international levels in the context of technological development of the Russian Federation”).

The article examines the issues of financing the development of the Russian Arctic territories and the participation of banking structures in this process. A set of strategic documents for the development of the Arctic zone of the Russian Federation is considered, the dynamics of approved amounts of funding for Arctic development programs are analyzed, and the structure of sources of financing for investment in fixed assets in regions whose territory belongs to the Arctic zone of the Russian Federation is studied. It is concluded that banks are not sufficiently involved in investment activities in most of the Arctic regions (except the Yamal-Nenets Autonomous district, where the active role of banking institutions is due to participation in the financing of large gas and oil production projects in the Northern part of the region), and in recent years, foreign banking structures decline investment activity. The article describes the prospects of participation of the largest Russian banking structures in implementing large-scale projects in the Arctic, such as VTB Bank, Sberbank of Russia, and Gazprombank. The analysis of the possibilities of concentration of banking capital, as well as the use of mechanisms of public-private partnership based on the creation of a single financial institution with state participation is performed. The most effective form of improving the efficiency of financial flows management in the framework of strategic development of the Arctic territories can be the creation of The Bank for reconstruction and development of the Arctic.
