The title of the conference was “Sustainable Development of Northern Territories: Rural Municipalities in Response to New Challenges, Learning by Examples”. Gargia conferences | 2004 - 2014 Community development 7 Foreword Greg Halseth I am very pleased to have attended the 10th anniversary International Conference hosted by the University of the Arctic’s Thematic Network on Local and Regional Development. The opportunities created through these annual meetings in the Norwegian communities of Gargia and Tana over the past 10 years illustrate the best of international collaboration. I have been involved in community development work on six continents and rarely do I see an international network that has the success, the participation, the work on the ground, as well as the ongoing conversations that this one has achieved. International networks are at their best when they accomplish multiple goals – and this is something that the UArctic Thematic Network on Local and Regional Development has succeeded with. My participation this year is part of an ongoing commitment by the conference to bring in academic researchers who specialize in studying various aspects of community and economic development in small northern communities and regions. Over the years, researchers from a wide number of institutions, and with a wide range of expertise, have contributed to the conference and its many themes. In this year’s conference, much was shared and learned from Russian, Scandinavian, and Canadian experiences. Each time, the academic researchers contribute a great deal and also learn a great deal. In addition, there is also participation by people interested in policy matters. Over the years this participation has come from government, community, and various non-profit organizations. Again this year, there was tremendous participation by a wide range of non-profit and government representatives. The information and perspectives they contributed was critical and helped to widen and improve the dialogue of the conference. But community development and economic change happens “on the ground” and in communities. That is why one of the key strengths of the international conference is that it also brings representatives from communities so that they can share their stories, listen to the presentations, and participate in the discussion. Again this year, the most valuable part was to Gargia conferences | 2004 - 2014 Community development 8 hear from community speakers about the projects they are working on and the successes they are creating. Together, this range of participation helps not only to broaden our awareness and understanding about matters critical to northern community and economic development, but the creation of this knowledge base is a key tool for successfully dealing with the challenges of change and for taking up the opportunities that they present. In addition, the international conference and the conversations it supports help to foster the creation of new friendships, new relationships, and better understandings. Many projects have been created out of the international conference and its conversations between researchers, policy advocates, and community representatives. Again this year, the excitement created by the conversations is leading to serious discussions about future projects to help better understand the opportunities and challenges facing northern communities and regions. I must mention the active work of the Network in mobilizing applied projects in Norway and a number of Russian Republics. Applied work on the ground, bringing together the best of the lessons from the international Network conversations, has helped communities develop for the better. It has helped in workshops where they learn to reimagine and re-bundle their assets so as to create opportunities that fit with local aspirations for themselves, their children, their

    RAPPORT nr. 2 – 2007 Revidert prosjektplan: Tilrettelegging for turisme som ivaretar naturverdiene på Slettnes, Gamvik kommune Fylkesmannen i Finnmark, miljøvernavdelingen 2007 RAPPORT fra Fylkesmannen i Finnmark, Miljøvernavdelinga, er en publikasjonsserie som presenterer resultater fra undersøkelser og utredninger som foretas i Miljøvernavdelingas regi. Formålet er blant annet å spre informasjon om miljøvernspørsmål til en videre krets av interesserte. En liste over tidligere rapporter i samme serie er gjengitt bak i rapporten. Flere av rapportene er tilgjengelige på Fylkesmannens hjemmeside, se under ”Miljøvern” på www.fylkesmannen.no/finnmark. Vi gjør oppmerksom på at forfatterne av rapportene selv er ansvarlige for sine vurderinger og konklusjoner.

Den første versjonen ble skrevet vinteren 2004. Tiltakene ble godkjent i forhold til vernebestemmelsene for naturreservatet gjennom behandling hos Fylkesmannen i Troms (Fylkesmannen i Finnmark erklærte seg inhabil pga. sitt engasjement i utformingen av planen). Deler av planen er gjennomført, men de største og viktigste delene gjenstår. Den forsinkete gjennomføringen skyldes blant annet signaler fra lokalt hold om motvilje mot deler av planen. Fylkesmannen og Gamvik kommune arrangerte derfor, i samarbeid med Gamvik museum, et folkemøte i Gamvik den 7. november 2006, hvor planen ble gjennomgått med formål å oppnå enighet om hva som skulle og ikke skulle gjennomføres.

  • Neruské Národy Ruskej Federácie, Ich Etnonymá a Transliterácia
    Neruské národy Ruskej federácie, ich etnonymá a transliterácia Viktória BALLOVÁ Neruské národy Ruskej federácie Hneď na úvod je nevyhnutné definovať si pojmy, s ktorými budeme v tejto analýze operovať - pojmy „národ“ a „neruský“. Národ je spoločenstvo ľudí, väčšinou rovnakého antropologického typu, ktorých spája rovnaká história, jazyk, kultúra a zvyky. Kvôli správnemu chápaniu slova „neruský“, je potrebné priblížiť si pojem „ruský“ (podrobnejšie napr. Guzi, 2008, 85-87). Na celom svete žije okolo 150 miliónov východoslovanského etnika – národa, známeho ako Rusi. V Ruskej federácii predstavujú okolo 116 miliónov obyvateľstva, čo je asi 79,8 % celkového obyvateľstva štátu (zo 150 miliónov). Najviac Rusov žije v centrálnej časti, na Severozápade krajiny a na Urale. Rozlišujeme dva hlavné dialekty ruského jazyka - severný (okajúci) a južný (akajúci). Ruský národ zastrešuje veľké množstvo malých národov ako napríklad Gorjuny, Garany, Kazaki (skôr kozácky subetnos), Kamčadaly, Kolymčane, Russoustinci, Markovci, Keržaki, Molokane atď (Itogi, 2000, 38). Dorozumievajú sa ruským jazykom, ktorý sa zaradzuje do východnej podskupiny, slovanskej skupiny indoeurópskej jazykovej rodiny. V kontexte nášho pojednania sa vyhneme charakteristike imigrantov a obyvateľov okolitých štátov, ktorý žijú aj na tomto území ako napr. Ukrajinci, Kazachovia, Litovčania, Gruzínci, nakoľko nie sú štátotvornou národnosťou Ruskej federácie. Podľa sčítania ľudu z roku 2002 prebýva na území Ruskej federácie okolo 180 národov. Unikátne, kultúrne i historicky bohaté etniká, ktoré tvoria približne 20% celkového obyvateľstva, ostávajú pre verejnosť takmer zabudnuté. Títo ľudia hovoria jazykmi 13-tich jazykových rodín (Abcházsko-adygejskej, Nachsko-dagestanskej, Kartveľskej, Uralskej, Altajskej, Jenisejskej, Jukagirsko-čuvanaskej, Čukotsko-kamčatskej, Aleutskej, Ajnskej, Semitskej, Sino-tibetskej, Austro-ázijskej) a Nivchskím jazykom, ktorý je považovaný za izolovaný (Guzi, 2009, s.

Biodiversity Data Journal 7: e32307. https://doi.org/10.3897/BDJ.7.e32307 Abstract Background This study produced a dataset containing information on moss occurrences in the territory of Yugyd Va National Park, located in the Subpolar and Northern Urals, European North- East Russia. The dataset summarises occurrences noted by long-term bryological explorations in remote areas of the Subpolar and Northern Urals from 1943 to 2015 and from studies published since 1915. The dataset consists of 4,120 occurrence records. The occurrence data were extracted from herbarium specimen labels (3,833 records) and data from published literature (287 records). Most of the records (4,104) are georeferenced. A total of 302 moss taxa belonging to 112 genera and 36 families are reported herein to occur in Yugyd Va National Park. The diversity of bryophytes in this National Park has not yet been fully explored and further exploration will lead to more taxa.

  • Russian Fishing Activities Off the Coast of Finnmark*A Legal History1 Kirsti Strøm Bull*, Professor, Faculty of Law, University of Oslo, Oslo, Norway
    Arctic Review on Law and Politics Vol. 6, No. 1, 2015, pp. 3Á10 Russian Fishing Activities off the Coast of Finnmark*A Legal History1 Kirsti Strøm Bull*, Professor, Faculty of Law, University of Oslo, Oslo, Norway Abstract The rich fishery resources off the coast of Finnmark have historically attracted fishermen from other parts of Norway and from neighbouring countries. This article discusses the legal history of Russian fishing activities off the coast of Finnmark and covers the historical period from the 1700s until the termination of this fishery in the early 1900s. The article shows that Russian fishermen, like the Sa´mi from Finland*and unlike fishermen from other nations, were authorized to establish shacks and landing places. Both the agreements and legal disputes surrounding the fishery, which lasted until World War I, are discussed in the article. Keywords: fishery; Russia; legal history; rights to marine resources; Finnmark; The Lapp Codicil Received: August 2014; Accepted: September 2014; Published: March 2015 1. Introduction protecting fishery resources for the benefit of Finnmark’s own population* From far back in time, the rich fisheries off the coast of Finnmark have attracted fishermen from beyond the county’s own borders. Some of these fishermen, known in Norwegian as nordfarere (‘‘northern seafarers’’), came from further south along the Norwegian coast, specifically from the counties of Nordland and Trøndelag. Others came from further east, from Finland and Russia. In more recent times, fishermen started to arrive from even further afield, notably from England. When the English trawlers ventured into Varangerfjord in 1911, they triggered a dispute between Norway and England concerning the delimitation of the Norwegian fisheries zone that continued until 1951, when the matter was decided by the International Court of Justice in The Hague.
