While comprehensive work on the controlling mechanisms of contemporary chemical and mechanical weathering has been carried out in the tropics and, to a lesser extent, in the strongly perturbed northern temperate latitudes, very little is known about the peri-glacial environments in the subarctic and arctic. Thus, the effects of climate, essentially temperature and runoff, on the rates of atmospheric CO2 consumption by weathering are not well quantified at this climatic extreme. To remedy this lack a comprehensive survey has been carried out of the geochemistry of the large rivers of Eastern Siberia, the Lena, Yana, Indigirka, Kolyma, Anadyr, and numerous lesser streams which drain a pristine, high-latitude region that has not experienced the pervasive effects of glaciation and subsequent anthropogenic impacts common to western Eurasia and North America.

  • Testimony: the Russian Economy: More Than Just Energy?
    The Russian Economy: More than Just Energy? Anders Åslund, Peterson Institute for International Economics Testimony for the Committee on Foreign Affairs of the European Parliament April 2009 1 Introduction Russia has enjoyed a decade of high economic growth because of the eventually successful market reforms of the 1990s as well as an oil boom. For the last six years, however, the Russian economy has become increasingly dysfunctional because the authorities have done nothing to impede corruption. The energy sector has been a generator of corrupt revenues, and its renationalization has concentrated these corrupt incomes in the hands of the security police elite. Russia depends on the European Union for most of its exports and imports, but no free trade agreement is even on the horizon. Investments, by contrast, are relatively well secured through international conventions. In global governance, Russia has changed its attitude from being a joiner to becoming a spoiler. The disruption of supplies of Russian gas to Europe in January 2009 displayed all the shortfalls both of the Russian and Ukrainian gas sectors and of EU policy. The European Union needs to play a more active role. It should monitor gas supplies, production, and storage. It should demand the exclusion of corrupt intermediaries in its gas trade. It should demand that Russia and Ukraine conclude a long- term transit and supply agreement. The European Union should form a proper energy policy, with energy conservation, diversification, unbundling, and increased storage. This is a good time to persuade Russia to ratify the Energy Charter. The European Union should also demand that Ukraine undertake a market-oriented and transparent energy-sector reform.

  • Privatization in Russia: Catalyst for the Elite
    PRIVATIZATION IN RUSSIA: CATALYST FOR THE ELITE VIRGINIE COULLOUDON During the fall of 1997, the Russian press exposed a corruption scandal in- volving First Deputy Prime Minister Anatoli Chubais, and several other high- ranking officials of the Russian government.' In a familiar scenario, news organizations run by several bankers involved in the privatization process published compromising material that prompted the dismissal of the politi- 2 cians on bribery charges. The main significance of the so-called "Chubais affair" is not that it pro- vides further evidence of corruption in Russia. Rather, it underscores the im- portance of the scandal's timing in light of the prevailing economic environment and privatization policy. It shows how deliberate this political campaign was in removing a rival on the eve of the privatization of Rosneft, Russia's only remaining state-owned oil and gas company. The history of privatization in Russia is riddled with scandals, revealing the critical nature of the struggle for state funding in Russia today. At stake is influence over defining the rules of the political game. The aim of this article is to demonstrate how privatization in Russia gave birth to an oligarchic re- gime and how, paradoxically, it would eventually destroy that very oligar- chy. This article intends to study how privatization influenced the creation of the present elite structure and how it may further transform Russian decision making in the foreseeable future. Privatization is generally seen as a prerequisite to a market economy, which in turn is considered a sine qua non to establishing a democratic regime. But some Russian analysts and political leaders disagree with this approach.

  • Comfortable Living Environment As the Basis for Rural Development in the Mining Region

F. Gorbachev Kuzbass State Technical University, 28 Vesennyaya, Kemerovo, 650000 2Kazakh Humanitarian and Legal Innovation University, Semey City, Republic of Kazakhstan Abstract. The article is devoted to the study of the problems of mining industry development and its impact on the development of rural areas in the region. It is revealed that the intensive development of the mining industry is accompanied by negative environmental consequences associated with the impact on socio – economic development and the formation of a comfortable living environment and, as a result, the quality of life of the population of rural areas. The Kemerovo region characterized by a pronounced intensive development of the coal industry accompanied by air pollution, rejection of land with high fertile potential, and degradation of renewable natural resources. The activities of mining companies accompanied by the release of highly toxic and carcinogenic substances into the air. As a result, there is an increased morbidity and mortality of able-bodied residents of the region, a low life expectancy, and a decrease in the total rural population, which is faster than the urban population. To solve the identified problems, the author's model of creating a comfortable living environment in the mining region proposed. The model makes it possible to assess the attractiveness of the territory when deciding on the future place of residence, and, also allows you to make informed management decisions aimed at improving the quality of life of people.

The article presents the grounds for the necessity to diversify the mono-economy of old industrial regions and its transition to the innovative development based on the interaction of small and large businesses with the support of municipal, regional and governmental authorities. The examples of the world practice in state regulation of depressed territories of old industrial type and the participation of multinational corporations in their modernization are given. The role of business groups in the diversification of the Kemerovo region economy is described, as well as the importance of supporting this process by the governmental authorities. 1 Introduction The need to diversify the mono-profile (mono-product, mono-industrial) economy of old industrial regions, including the Kemerovo Region, is due to the objective requirement of their sustainable development and increase of social and economic parameters of the terri- torial management system. One of the important factors of this process is the effective in- teraction of small and large business. However, in modern economy, when the existing economic, production, and other links and mechanisms lose their importance and new ones are just being established, to create such interaction and ensure its development the pur- poseful efforts of the authorities on federal, regional and municipal levels are necessary. 2 Materials and Methods It should be noted that there is no "exact" (single, universal) definition of the term "old in- dustrial region", despite the fact that many scientists have paid attention to this phenome- non during the past twenty five years in Russia [1-5].

A deep and comprehensive analysis of the parameters of the situation with fires in the territories of the Russian Federation and its relationship with socio-economic processes is more relevant than ever for Russia. The article presents, summarizes and analyzes statistical data on the situation with fires and their consequences on the territory of the Rostov region for 2018-2019. Problem Statement. The paper considers the problem of official statistical accounting of fires, the procedure for accounting for people killed and injured in a fire in the context of a changing regulatory framework in this area. The analysis of the situation, official and verified information on fires and their consequences will create a reliable socio- economic characteristic of the Rostov region. Theoretical Part. The paper deals with the peculiarities of accounting of fires and their consequences in Russia. The source materials are the official statistics of the MD of the MES of Russia for the Rostov region on the number of fires on the territory, months, the number of people injured and killed in fires and their distribution by gender, age and time of death, objects and causes of fires.
