The conference was organized by the University of Wrocław in cooperation with The Committee on Polar Research of the Polish Academy of Sciences and two NGOs: Polar Club of Polish Geographical Society and APECS Poland. The honorary patronage over the Symposium was taken by the Rector of University of Wrocław and by the Mayor of Wrocław. The Symposium held under the theme “Diversity and state of polar ecosystems”. The meeting was attended by 170 participants (including 11 from overseas) representing 36 independent national bodies of universities and Academy of Scienc- es and nine foreign centers of Austria (1), Czech Republic (2), the Netherlands (1), Germany (1), Norway (1) Russia (3) and the UK (2). A total number of 64 oral presentations, introduced on two plenary and five thematic sessions, and 69 poster presentations highlighted the various aspects of polar sciences. The sessions were celebrated by the invited speakers: Saskia Brix- Elsig from German Centre for Marine Biodiversity Research, Josef Elster from Czech Centre of Polar Ecology and Wolfgang Schoener from Zentreal Anstalt fur Meteorologie und Geodynamik. In total, more than 130 different works were presented whose abstracts were published in the electronic version: Migała et al. 2014 (eds) Book of Abstracts 35th Polar Sym- posium “Diversity and state of polar ecosystems” 4–7 June 2014, Wrocław, 136 pp, ISBN 978−83−62673−39−1. The conference allowed to assess that in the Polish scientific community in- volved in the polar regions there are new lines of research and successful attempts at synthesis. The young age of the majority of speakers and a variety of research topics and the increasingly interdisciplinary nature of the research, as well as attempts at synthesis are encouraging for the future. Most of the speeches have reached a good international standard. Also was noted significant progress in methodology, modern technics and scientific equipment of polish polar research.

There are many existing and potential pressures, which make the Arctic ecosystems vulnera- ble. The Arctic climate is warming rapidly. Its impacts like thinning and reduced the extent of sea ice has significant implications for Arctic wildlife and human popula- tions. The other threats are pollution and increased economic activities such as oil and gas exploration or shipping. To address these challenges, there is a need for flexible and adaptive interdisciplinary

  • Russia and Siberia: the Beginning of the Penetration of Russian People Into Siberia, the Campaign of Ataman Yermak and It’S Consequences
    The Aoyama Journal of International Politics, Economics and Communication, No. 106, May 2021 CCCCCCCCC Article CCCCCCCCC Russia and Siberia: The Beginning of the Penetration of Russian People into Siberia, the Campaign of Ataman Yermak and it’s Consequences Aleksandr A. Brodnikov* Petr E. Podalko** The penetration of the Russian people into Siberia probably began more than a thousand years ago. Old Russian chronicles mention that already in the 11th century, the northwestern part of Siberia, then known as Yugra1), was a “volost”2) of the Novgorod Land3). The Novgorod ush- * Associate Professor, Novosibirsk State University ** Professor, Aoyama Gakuin University 1) Initially, Yugra was the name of the territory between the mouth of the river Pechora and the Ural Mountains, where the Finno-Ugric tribes historically lived. Gradually, with the advancement of the Russian people to the East, this territorial name spread across the north of Western Siberia to the river Taz. Since 2003, Yugra has been part of the offi cial name of the Khanty-Mansiysk Autonomous Okrug: Khanty-Mansiysk Autonomous Okrug—Yugra. 2) Volost—from the Old Russian “power, country, district”—means here the territo- rial-administrative unit of the aboriginal population with the most authoritative leader, the chief, from whom a certain amount of furs was collected. 3) Novgorod Land (literally “New City”) refers to a land, also known as “Gospodin (Lord) Veliky (Great) Novgorod”, or “Novgorod Republic”, with its administrative center in Veliky Novgorod, which had from the 10th century a tendency towards autonomy from Kiev, the capital of Ancient Kievan Rus. From the end of the 11th century, Novgorod de-facto became an independent city-state that subdued the entire north of Eastern Europe.
