“…Thus, one of the key aspects of the activity of the Altai Geopark is the formation of a new paradigm. Instead of the industrial paradigm of "conquest" and "use", the axiological paradigm of the value of a recreational resource should come to life [GOLUBCHIKOV et al 2019].…”

The geopark Altai has a set of unique geological, geographical, and archaeological objects. Its basis is made by geological space with a specific relief that plays an important role, and on certain sites, it takes the first place in comparison with other types of objects. The peculiar feature of the geopark Altai is that in its territory there is a landscape connection among archaeological, geological, and geographical objects, which at certain sites is penetrated by mental and cultural fluids causing a deep interest of tourists in this territory. In this regard, the authors consider the relief as an object of cognitive, educational, and practical activities of the geopark Altai. Therefore, the following tasks were set up: to find a site for the realization of several types of activities by the geopark and to develop a theoretical scientific and a popular science base for their implementation. As a result of the work done, the authors allocated the site within the boundaries of the geopark Altai where modern dynamics of the relief are characterized by the maximum speed. On this site, it is possible to recreate the processes that created the relief in the geological past and to study these processes now. The specifics of weather and climatic conditions in this region made its relief very important for economic activity of the population inhabiting this territory. Therefore, as of today, the study of the condition of certain surface sites and forecasting the development of relief-forming processes is an important part of any activity on the described territory. The long-term geological, ecological, geographical, and archaeological research conducted by the authors on the territory of the Altai Republic served as materials for this study. The geological materials were collected by the methods adopted in this field of research (field survey of structures and rocks, cartographic methods, analysis of general geological data, and others). The ecological and geographical results were obtained using geochemical, hydrochemical, analytical, and others.

“…Today, almost everyone has access to higher education, which is mainly limited by the financial condition of the family. The abundance of information and the ease of obtaining it led to a shift in emphasis in obtaining knowledge: for some students it is important not what you know, but the knowledge of where you can get information [13].…”

The information-digital era has led to the emergence in our social life of a number of new paradigms - social standards and patterns of behavior, new values and beliefs that are implemented in all spheres of society. The paper aims to analyze the emerging paradigms regarding the changes they introduce in our social lives and threats brought about by these changes. The authors analyze such paradigms as a new attitude to information, the introduction of digital technologies, changes in the qualification level of the workforce, new features of the lifestyle, and a change in spatial behavior. It is concluded that each paradigm introduces behavioral standard modifications to social life and makes social activity easier in terms of physical costs. At the same time, each new paradigm simultaneously generates new challenges for a person: problems of selecting information and assessing its reliability, arising information inequality, underdevelopment of digital culture, a shortage of relevant specialists, and the disappearance of a number of professions. Overall, the authors view these challenges as inevitable consequences of growth that humanity must explore and learn to overcome.

“…Against these environmental imperatives is the manifest bounty of a natural resource-rich region, meaning that any form of environmental governance in the Arctic must balance environmental and economic imperatives. This can extend beyond the "normal" trade-off of manufacturing/production and resource consumption and also encompass exploration and even tourism (Golubchikov et al 2019;Saarinen and Varnajot 2019). And standing at this economy/environment nexus in the Arctic is a wide diversity of human governance regimes throughout the region.…”

In our (frozen) backyard: the Eurasian Union and regional environmental governance in the Arctic

Regional environmental governance has emerged as a viable alternative to supranational environmental solutions, using regional and local knowledge and actors to tailor more effective policies. This does not deny a role for supranational institutions, however, which can enable their members to effectively shift towards such a decentralized and polycentric approach. In specific regions such as the Arctic, with many national and local actors interested in environmental improvement, such impetus from meta-organizations (i.e., organizations comprised of organizations) could result in beneficial environmental outcomes. This paper examines an underutilized institution, the Eurasian Union (EaEU), and the role it currently plays in facilitating regional environmental governance. Focusing on its largest member, Russia—and the only member with an Arctic linkage—I explore the tension between supranational facilitation and interference in an area not directly affecting all members. Despite explicit Russian interest in this realm, the EaEU may be able to influence Russian environmental policy for the better via multilateral means and internal mechanisms. By challenging the Russian monopoly on Arctic policy in the EaEU, these additional voices may create space for environmental innovation in areas not central to Russia’s interests.
