“…Cross (2019) reminds us that energy interventions change not only technologies, but also the social relationships in a community, and how people experience the world around them. There is a growing recognition that gender diversity 1 and class positions are key to designing energy interventions and their outcomes (for example, Ahlborg, 2018; Baruah, 2015; Lahiri‐Dutt, 2012, 2019; Osunmuyiwa & Ahlborg, 2019; Petrova & Simcock, 2019).…”

The Anthropocene has thrown at us a challenge of balancing urgency and justice. Urgency brought about by myriad environmental crises, most prominently being climate change, and justice that any adequate response to these crises needs to be rooted in. This is a dilemma because we need pathways for urgent action on climate mitigation and energy transitions while centring the slow and considered work that historical and contemporary justice questions demand. This is because while the Anthropocene calls humans to unite, its impacts have been, are, and will be, felt differently. The Anthropocene narrative's framing of a universal humanity connects to a long and dangerous history of what is human and what qualifies as humanity, a history of colonising, racializing, and dehumanising black, brown, and indigenous bodies around the world. We need narratives of the Anthropocene that confirm the importance of decolonising political, economic, and scientific institutions, not to deny urgency, but to foster a more political Anthropocene that creates

“…Out of the 9 cities, 6 cities with a population of 100,000 belong to the Russian Federation. The largest Arctic cities are Whitehorse (25,085 inhabitants) and Yellowknife (19,569) in Canada, Nuuk (17,796) and Tórshavn (13,130) in Denmark. Within dynamics of populations, all foreign Arctic cities have been found to have trends in population growth, out of 12 Russian cities only 3 such as Novy Urengoy, Noyabrsk, and Severomorsk followed this tendency.…”

“…Women could not undertake scientific research and highlight their scientific contributions in the polar regions in the 1990s (Chipman, 1986; Carey, Jackson, Antonello, & Rushing, 2016; Seag, 2017) [9][10][11]. Gendered barriers are divided into formal, caused by social, political, and economic factors (Rosner, 2009;Lahiri-Dutt, 2019, Marsh, et al (2011 [12][13][14] and informal ones including physical barriers; low paid work and harassment (Bell & Koenig, 2017) [15]. Recent scholarly works, events, and webinars (Starkweather, S., Derry, K., & Crain, R. 2018; Association of Polar Early Career Scientists [APECS], 2019; Smieszek & Prior, 2019) [16][17][18] have shown a light on the struggles faced by women in their careers in the Arctic.…”

The Demographic Factor Impact on the Economics of the Arctic Region

Decline of the international price of some minerals, such as coal, has changed the living standards of the Arctic population leading to its considerable out-migration because of the drop in profitability not only in mining, but also in related industries. Being essential for the sustainable economic development, the highly qualified specialists are currently a crucial issue in the Arctic. This research employs demographic and economic indicators to address the gap in the study of demographic challenges for the Arctic administrative-territorial entities. Special attention is paid to the comparative analysis of the population dynamic in the Russian and global Arctic regions. As part of this study, the impact of the demographic factor on the economic indicators of the region was assessed on the basis of GRP data calculation. Special attention is paid to the analysis of the major trends in the Arctic labour market. Based on the results of the assessment, an increase in GRP was determined with the simultaneous decrease in the Arctic population. The current demographic situation in the Arctic regions in the context of gender factors was reviewed. It should be noted that the article contains exceptions and the causes of the phenomena described. The results of the research may contribute to better understanding of regional variation and trends in socio-economic development of the Arctic as well as the stabilisation of the Arctic population.
