Lomonosov, 163002, Severnaya Dvina Emb., 17, Arkhangelsk, Russia 2 Moscow State University of Civil Engineering, 26, Yaroslavskoeshosse, 129337, Moscow, Russia Abstract. The development of the construction industry, conducting construction in accordance with standard projects, and transforming the construction materials industry in hard-to-reach and sparsely populated areas will make significant progress in solving the housing problem. Industrialization of housing construction is a catalyst for strong growth of the region’s economy and the quality of life of citizens. The purpose of this study is to develop a methodology for assessing the level of industrialization of the territory’s construction complex and its development potential for increasing the volume of low-rise housing stock. Research tasks: 1) assessment of the need to develop housing construction, including low-rise housing, on a particular territory; 2) development of a methodology for calculating the level of industrialization of construction in the area under consideration to determine the possibility of developing low-rise housing construction in this area in the proposed way; 3) approbation of the method using the example of rural areas of the Arkhangelsk region. It was revealed that the districts of the Arkhangelsk region have medium and low levels of industrialization. The districts that are most in need of an increase in the rate of housing construction have been identified.

  • Development of Forest Sector in the Arkhangelsk Oblast During the Transition Period of the 1990S
    Development of forest sector in the Arkhangelsk oblast during the transition period of the 1990s ALBINA PASHKEVICH Pashkevich Albina (2003). Development of forest sector in the Arkhangelsk oblast during the transition period of the 1990s. Fennia 181: 1, pp. 13–24. Helsinki. ISSN 0015-0010. The Arkhangelsk oblast has long been one of Russia’s most important forest industrial regions. This paper analyses the changes in accessibility of forest resources and forest commodity production during the transition period in the 1990s. Special attention is given to firm restructuring, active roles of domestic capital and the different survival strategies that have been developed by in- dustries in the region. Further analysis deals with signs of economic recovery in the forest sector due to the processes of restructuring, modernisation and self-organisation.

The report aims to provide a thorough review and backdrop on the issues concerning how culture can be understood and utilised to help develop a successful and globalised metropolitan region. This report is not a review of culture and arts in Greater Sydney or New South Wales. It does not research or assess Greater Sydney’s cultural infrastructure, policy or strategy. It is rather an ‘outside in’ report that looks at evidence, benchmarks, and case studies of how culture and arts are supporting the globalising metropolitan areas of the world.

  • The SIS Limits and Related Proglacial Events in the Severnaya Dvina Basin, Northwestern Russia: Review and New Data
    Bulletin of the Geological Society of Finland, Vol. 90, 2018, pp 301–313, https://doi.org/10.17741/bgsf/90.2.012 The SIS limits and related proglacial events in the Severnaya Dvina basin, northwestern Russia: review and new data Nataliya E. Zaretskaya1*, Andrei V. Panin2,3 and Natalia V. Karpukhina2 1 Geological Institute of RAS, Pyzhesky per. 7, Moscow, 119017, RUSSIA 2 Institute of Geography of RAS, Staromonetny per. 29, Moscow, 119017, RUSSIA 3 Lomonsov Moscow State University, Vorobiovy Gory 1, Moscow, 119991, RUSSIA Abstract Two underlying problems of the Late Quaternary history of the Scandinavian Ice Sheet (SIS) are reviewed in the paper: the position of the southeastern SIS boundary at the Late Glacial Maximum (LGM), which is still widely “migrating” depending on authors’ concepts, and the formation of associated proglacial lakes (i.e. their dimensions, drainage and chronology) in the valleys of Severnaya Dvina River basin. The position of maximum ice limit in the northwest of the Russian Plain remains debatable and is the least reliable compared to the other SIS sectors. Most of the recent reconstructions concerning ice-dammed lakes (water overflows, restructuring of river valleys etc.) exploited the geological survey results of mid-20th century: since then no geological studies have been conducted of the proposed spillways, their filling sediments and age using the modern sedimentological and geochronological techniques. As a result, the majority of the above-mentioned reconstructions have to be considered hypothetical. Here we present new results on two valley sites that allow to suggest that: 1) the SIS did not advance through the lower and middle Vychegda valley at LGM as suggested in some recent publications; 2) the LGM glacier-dammed lake had a very limited extension in the Severnaya Dvina valley and did not exceed to the Vychegda River mouth.

  • Struggle for the Ownership of Pulp and Paper Mills
    Anna-Maija Matilainen (in The Changing Governance of Renewable Natural Resources in Northwest Russia, ed. by S. Nysten-Haarala, p. 105-128) Struggle for the Ownership of Pulp and Paper Mills Introduction The present paper deals with the pulp and paper industry in Northwest Russia and changing ownership patterns. During recent years the pulp and paper industry in Russia has undergone heavy restructuring and consolidation. Some pulp and paper producers have started to build holding companies in order to strengthen their position on the markets. Large foreign forest enterprises have found the opportunities of Russia’s forest sector as well and many of them have made a significant entry into Russia. Furthermore, the pulp and paper industry has attracted the interest of Russian oligarchs. Their more active role on the Russian pulp and paper business has evoked a great deal of confusion. Since the beginning of 2000s enterprise takeover wave has shaken up the pulp and paper industry in Russia. Russian forest enterprises are concentrating into larger units and more powerful enterprises are emerging into the Russian forest sector. Large and relatively lucrative pulp and paper mills have been the main targets of takeover attempts.1 Accordingly, the hostile takeover attempts have had a great influence on the whole forest industrial sector in Russia. Furthermore, the long-lasting and complicated takeover battles have generated harsh criticism and lively debate over possibilities to regulate enterprise takeovers. In this article I review the actors in the pulp and paper industry in Northwest Russia and some prominent ownership disputes around the pulp and paper mills.

    How to use the Atlas The Atlas has two map sections The Main Section shows the location of Russia’s intact forest landscapes. The Thematic Section shows their tree species composition in two different ways. The legend is placed at the beginning of each set of maps. If you are looking for an area near a town or village Go to the Index on page 153 and find the alphabetical list of settlements by English name. The Cyrillic name is also given along with the map page number and coordinates (latitude and longitude) where it can be found. Capitals of regions and districts (raiony) are listed along with many other settlements, but only in the vicinity of intact forest landscapes. The reader should not expect to see a city like Moscow listed. Villages that are insufficiently known or very small are not listed and appear on the map only as nameless dots. If you are looking for an administrative region Go to the Index on page 185 and find the list of administrative regions. The numbers refer to the map on the inside back cover. Having found the region on this map, the reader will know which index map to use to search further. If you are looking for the big picture Go to the overview map on page 35. This map shows all of Russia’s Intact Forest Landscapes, along with the borders and Roman numerals of the five index maps. If you are looking for a certain part of Russia Find the appropriate index map. These show the borders of the detailed maps for different parts of the country.

TSVETKOV, Cand. Sci. (Econ.), associate professor E-mail: [email protected] Department of Management, Higher School of Economics, Management and Law, Northern (Arctic) Federal University named after M.V. Lomonosov, Arkhangelsk, Russia Abstract. The article, devoted to the analysis of transport and geographical locations, describes possible strategies for the development of tourism in the Arkhangelsk Oblast. The main goal of the research was the development of logistic schemes of the transportation of tourists from the places of formation of tourist flows to the Arkhangelsk Oblast. The methodological basis of the article is to determine the economic dis- tances between potential tourist distribution centers and their places of interest in the area. Moscow, St. Petersburg, and Arkhangelsk were considered as the main towns of departure. Kargopol, Solvychegodsk, Kholmogory and Lomonosovo, Solovki, Kenozersky National Park, and Pinega caves are regarded as the main sites of tourist interest in the Arkhangelsk Oblast. It was determined that Kargopol is the most acces- sible for tourists, and Kenozersky National Park is the most recognizable by tourists but the least accessible. The object of world cultural heritage, the Monastery of the Transfiguration of the Saviour on Solovki is the most accessible for tourists from the territory of Karelia. It is recommended to optimize the schedule and to synchronize the work of transport for tourists to improve the transport accessibility of recreational facili- ties in the area.
