Depopulation of Russia’s Asian North and the Impact on Political Development
P. 15–29.
Petrov N.
The so called Russian Asian North is overviewed, comprising the Urals, Siberian, and Far eastern federal districts, and their demographic and political situation. Arctic regions offer a range of political climates , with some relatively open and competitive - in the Russian context of growing authoritarianism - and others opaque and monolithic. The local politics is key to help us move from Moscow-centered Arctic policy to everyday realities on the ground.

Депопуляция, в которую вступила Россия в начале 1990-х гг. и "западный дрейф", ведущие к быстрому сокращению населения востока России, являются серьезным вызовом существованию городских сообществ этой части страны. Эти города не только лишились подпитки людьми за счет миграции из западной части страны, но и столкнулись о стремительным сокращением населения собственных периферийных территорий. ...

Главный демографический феномен в развитых и многих развивающихся странах — старение населения. В его основе две многолетние тенденции — устойчивый рост продолжительности жизни в старших возрастах и снижение рождаемости до уровня, когда детские поколения не обеспечивают замещение родительских в количественном отношении. Демографические прогнозы показывают, что в перспективе процесс старения будет не просто углубляться, но и ...
