KEY PLAYERS IN THEARCTIC - FROM SOCIALIST KOMBINATS TO COMPANIES - LEADERS OF SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT
The paternalistic model of the development of Arctic resources, based on large industrial and transport systems, developed in Soviet times and partly modernized during the privatization of the 1990s, is increasingly at odds with modern ideas about sustainable development. The role of leaders in the socio-economic development of the Russian Arctic can be assumed by large transnational and transregional corporations. This implies a transition to a new institutional model based on the participation of all key players in the Arctic projects, ensuring an equal dialogue and harmonization of the interests of the state, business and the local community.
