A. Katrovskiy (Editor) 4 SPECIAL ISSUE, 2015 THEORY AND METHODOLOGY OF RESEARCH Baburin V.L. (Moscow) UNIFIED MODEL OF SETTLEMENT AND LOCATION OF PRODUCTION Abstract. The article considers the spatial relationship between internal structure of regional systems of settlements and social and economic functions performed by those systems. The aim is to build a unified model of settlement and location based on models of spatial analysis and production functions. This article offers a combination of these two classes of models to assess relationship between density and settlement structureand economic potential of a territory in order to create social and economic development forecasts for regions. Keywords: spatial models of settlement, production functions, settlement system, Russian regions. Introduction.

International Journal of Geography and Geography Education (IGGE), 43, 365-385. Submitted: October 07, 2020 Revised: November 01, 2020 Accepted: November 16, 2020 GEOGRAPHY OF THE TRANS-BAYKAL (RUSSIA) REGION Trans-Baykal (Rusya) Bölgesi’nin Coğrafyası Reyhan Rafet CAN1 Öz Zabaykalskiy Kray (Bölge) olarak isimlendirilen saha adını Rus kâşiflerin ilk kez 1640’ta karşılaştıkları Daur halkından alır. Rusçada Zabaykalye, Balkal Gölü’nün doğusu anlamına gelir. Trans-Baykal Bölgesi, Sibirya'nın en güneydoğusunda, doğu Trans-Baykal'ın neredeyse tüm bölgesini işgal eder. Bölge şiddetli iklim koşulları; birçok mineral ve hammadde kaynağı; ormanların ve tarım arazilerinin varlığı ile karakterize edilir. Rusya Federasyonu'nun Uzakdoğu Federal Bölgesi’nin bir parçası olan on bir kurucu kuruluşu arasında bölge, alan açısından altıncı, nüfus açısından dördüncü, bölgesel ürün üretimi açısından (GRP) altıncı sıradadır. Bölge topraklarından geçen Trans-Sibirya Demiryolu yalnızca Uzak Doğu ile Rusya'nın batı bölgeleri arasında bir ulaşım bağlantısı değil, aynı zamanda Avrasya geçişini sağlayan küresel altyapının da bir parçasıdır. Bölgenin üretim yapısında sanayi, tarım ve ulaşım yüksek bir paya sahiptir. Bu çalışmada Trans-Baykal Bölgesi’nin fiziki, beşeri ve ekonomik coğrafya özellikleri ele alınmıştır. Trans-Baykal Bölgesinin coğrafi özelliklerinin yanı sıra, ekonomik ve kültürel yapısını incelenmiştir. Bu kapsamda konu ile ilgili kurumsal raporlardan ve alan araştırmalarından yararlanılmıştır. Bu çalışma sonucunda 350 yıldan beri Rus gelenek, kültür ve yaşam tarzının devam ettiği, farklı etnik grupların toplumsal birliği sağladığı, yer altı kaynaklarının bölge ekonomisi için yüzyıllardır olduğu gibi günümüzde de önem arz ettiği, coğrafyasının halkın yaşam şeklini belirdiği sonucuna varılmıştır.

  • APPENDIX B TREATIES TREATY of NERCHINSK Signed Between Russia and China, 21Th August 1689
    APPENDIX B TREATIES TREATY OF NERCHINSK Signed between Russia and China, 21th August 1689 1. 'fhe boundary between Russia and China is to be formed by the river Kerbechi, near the Shorna, which enters the Amur, and the long chain of mountains extending from its sources to the Eastern Ocean. The rivers or rivulets which flow from the southern slope of these mountains, as well as all territories to the south of them, will thus belong to China. The territories and rivers to the north of the said mountain chain remain with the Empire o£ Muscovy. The boundary is further to be found by the river Argun, which enters the Amur; the tenitories south of the said river belong to the Emperor of China, those to the north of it to the Empire of Muscovy. The towns or dwelling-houses at present situated to the south of the Argun shall be moved to the northern bank of the river. 2. The fortress built by the Russians at a place called Atbazeir shall be demolished, and the subjects of the Tsar residing there shall remove with their property to Muscovite territory. Hunters of either empire shall on no pretence cross the frontiers. If one or two persons cross the frontier to hunt, steal, or pilfer, they shall be arrested and given up to the nearest Imperial officers to be punished according to their deserts. In case, however, armed parties of ten or fifteen people cross the frontiers to hunt or plunder, or in case of any person being killed, a report shall be sent in to both emperors, and the parties found guilty shall be punished with death.

  • RUSSIAN FEDERATION This Large Site on the Western End of the Greater Caucasus Mountains Is in One of the Few Great Mountain Ranges of Europe Almost Undisturbed by Man
    WESTERN CAUCASUS RUSSIAN FEDERATION This large site on the western end of the Greater Caucasus Mountains is in one of the few great mountain ranges of Europe almost undisturbed by man. Its extensive mountain forests, from subtropical to alpine, are unique in Europe and its high pastures have been grazed only by wild animals. The site is on the edge of the Colchian centre of plant diversity barely 30 kilometres from the Black Sea. Stretching between lowlands and alpine mountains, it includes four-fifths of the ecosystems of the Caucasus and includes many endemic and relict species such as the reintroduced European bison. Threats to the site: Construction of more than 250 facilities for the 2014 Winter Olympics is heavily impinging on the site and region. COUNTRY Russian Federation NAME Western Caucasus NATURAL WORLD HERITAGE SERIAL SITE 1999: Inscribed on the World Heritage List under Natural Criteria ix and x. STATEMENT OF OUTSTANDING UNIVERSAL VALUE [pending] The UNESCO World Heritage Committee issued the following statement at the time of inscription: Justification for Inscription The Western Caucasus has a remarkable diversity of geology, ecosystems and species. It is of global significance as a centre of plant diversity. Along with the Virgin Komi World Heritage site, it is the only large mountain area in Europe that has not experienced significant human impact, containing extensive tracts of undisturbed mountain forests unique on the European scale.

SOCIETY. COMMUNICATION» REGIONAL CONCEPTS VERBALIZATION IN TRANSBAIKAL TERRITORY MEDIA DISCOURSE Yulia Shchurina (a)*, Maria Vyrupaeva (b), Anastasia Ivanova (c) *Corresponding author (a) Transbaikal State University, Chita, Russian Federation, [email protected] (b) Transbaikal State University, Chita, Russian Federation (c) Transbaikal State University, Chita, Russian Federation Abstract The article deals with the features of locally marked concepts objectification of the regional level, conventionally called regional concepts, in the media space of the Transbaikal Krai territory. The authors offer their own definition of the concept “regional concept”. The study of locally marked concepts and their verbalization in regional media texts is carried out within the framework of a cognitive language approach. The paper presents concepts that represent the image of Transbaikal in the modern media sphere: “Guran”, “bagulnik” and “Sagaalgan”; they are described by means of conceptual analysis, which involves the study of the verbal representations semantics of these concepts, and contextual analysis, which actualizes the elements of the concepts meaning when creating lexemes-representatives in certain contexts. Identifying the content of the conceptual and figurative components of the concepts “Guran”, “bagulnik” and “Sagaalgan”, the authors determine the typical characteristics of the regional concept, suggesting that they are considered key ones for conducting research of this kind: recognition, territorial consolidation, symbolism and high frequency of use in a positive evaluation context. The conclusion is made about the close semantic relationship and interdependence of regional concepts that form a larger conceptual combination – hyperconcept (“Transbaikal”).
