KARBAINOV, Research Fellow E-mail: [email protected] Sociological Institute of the RAS — a branch of the Federal Research Sociological Center of the Russian Academy of Sciences, Saint Petersburg, Russia Abstract. The article is devoted to the socio-economic adaptation of single-industry towns’ population on the example of single-industry settlements in the North-West of Russia. The work’s theoretical and meth- odological framework is the approaches of scientists who study the grassroots practices of survival of small towns and villages (seasonal work, commuting, a distributed way of life, the informal economy). The empir- ical base of the study are statistical data collected from the databases of EMISS, SPARK Interfax, the Foun- dation for the Development of Single-Industry Towns, websites of administrations of single-industry set- tlements in the Northwestern Federal District, as well as data from field studies collected by the method of semi-formalized interviews with representatives of administrations and deputies of city and regional coun- cils, with ordinary residents of single-industry towns in Republic of Karelia, Leningrad and Vologda oblasts. -

Russian Monotowns Delgir Maksimova [email protected]
Master Program in Economic Growth, Innovation and Spatial Dynamics Russian Monotowns Delgir Maksimova [email protected] Abstract: Monofunctional towns of Russia represent the extreme case of specialized settlements where the socio-economic development mostly or fully depends on the performance of one or a few town-forming enterprises. This phenomenon obtained attention after the Soviet Union collapse, which has resulted in worsening of the socio-economic situation in monotowns. However, since the 2000s the differentiation in the development among monofunctional towns was observed. What can condition such differentiation? In this study an attempt to provide a new perspective, through which monotowns can be studied. The analysis is done in the step- wise manner and based on the developed data matrix and taxonomy of monotowns. Key words: monotowns, monofunctional towns, agglomeration, specialization, lock-ins, functional classification EKHM51 Master's Thesis (15 ECTS) June 2015 Supervisor: Karl-Johan Lundquist Examiner: Jonas Ljungberg Word Count: 15 883 Website www.ehl.lu.se TABLE OF CONTENTS Table of Contents ............................................................................................................................ 1 List of Figures ................................................................................................................................. 2 List of Tables .................................................................................................................................. 3 1.

Assessment of Attitudes Towards Bioenergy by Forestry Experts in the Republic of Karelia
ALUE JA YMPÄRISTÖ Maxim Trishkina, Eugene Lopatinb & Olga Gavrilovac Assessment of attitudes towards bioenergy by forestry experts in the Republic of Karelia Abstract The Republic of Karelia is situated in the northwestern part of Russia and represents approximately 1 % of the country’s territory. Forests cover 53 % of the total area, with 70 % of the total forest area available for harvesting. The bioenergy sector is relatively significant as it contributes 10 % to the total energy supply in Karelia, which as a fossil fuel deficient region is highly dependent on imported energy resources from other regions of the country. Therefore, the purpose of the study was to assess the role and position of bioenergy in the Republic of Karelia. It was done by exploring the perception of forestry professionals and forestry students towards bioenergy production in comparison with other forest uses. The role and position of bioenergy was identified through the assessment of the importance of landscape elements, ranking of adverse environmental effects on surrounding landscapes, input to the local economy and importance in planning principles. The results indicate that bioenergy production is perceived to have a low negative effect on the surrounding environment but also a low economic input to the local economy of the region. In addition, bioenergy is perceived to have a low influence on planning principles according to the opinions of the respondents. Statistically significant differences were found between the opinions of respondents with different occupations in regards to the main factors that negatively affect the surrounding environment. In general, the respondents indicated that bioenergy production is of moderate importance, although more research is needed in this field. -
