  • Mobility and Sense of Place Among Youth in the Russian Arctic
    Mobility and Sense of Place among Youth in the Russian Arctic ALLA BOLOTOVA, ANASTASIA KARASEVA, AND VALERIA VASILYEVA Abstract: This article explores how the mobility of young people in- fluences their sense of place in different parts of the Russian Arctic. In globalization studies increasing mobility has often been set in oppo sition to belonging to place, and interpreted as diminishing local connections and ties. Recent studies show that the role of mobil- ity in shaping a sense of place is more complex. The Russian Arctic is often considered a remote, hard-to-access area, despite the fact that local residents have always been very mobile. We compare three case studies from across the Russian Arctic—namely, the Central Murmansk region, the Central Kolyma, and Eastern Taimyr—show- ing how mobility shapes differently young residents’ sense of place. These regions have a different population structure (urban / rural, polyethnic / monoethnic) and different transportation infrastructure, thus providing a good ground for comparing the relationships be- tween mobility and a sense of place in the Russian Arctic. Keywords: Magadan region, mobility, motility, Murmansk region, Russian Arctic, sense of place, Taimyr, transport infrastructure here are no roads in the North” is a common stereotype about “ the Russian Arctic.1 Social scientists working there often become annoyedT by this postulate, not only because it presumes an essential immobility of the local population that is far from reality, but also by the background idea that the Russian North is a uniform, homogeneous space that does not display significant differences across its several thousand kilometers. Anthropologists studying the Russian North face precisely the opposite problem: how best to compare the results of field research if social life varies so radically in different regions.
