Abstract

The article examines the tools of sociological research, used in the study of the state and prospects of the socio-economic and environmental development of the Karelian Arctic region, its human capital, as a factor in the sustainable development of the region. Special attention is paid to the reasons for choosing migration from the region of residence as a form of investment in the human capital, as well as the role of a wide range of factors in deciding on migration, such as environmental, economic and social ones. The tasks of a comprehensive study of the processes of regional socio-economic and ecological development are considered, the methodological approaches used at each stage of this study are determined, the importance of sociological tools in the system of goals and objectives of this study is identified. The process of forming a special economic and legal regime of the Arctic Zone of the Russian Federation as a whole and the Karelian Arctic region requires taking into account not only the entire spectrum of the latest problems of these territories, but also updating the knowledge about the features of their socio-economic and ecological economic development. These circumstances require the improvement of research tools used in the study of these processes.

Summary

Introduction

The development of the Arctic zone of Russia is currently one of the priorities of the state policy [1]. The latest economic, environmental and political challenges, as well as changes in the borders of the Arctic zone itself, which in recent years has turned into a separate object of state management [2], determine the need for new studies of the spatial development of the region's economy and improving their tools.The object of this study is the territory of the Karelian Arctic, formed due to six municipalities of the Republic of Karelia entering the Arctic zone of Russia (AZRF): on June 27, 2017, Loukhsky, Kemsky and Belomorskydistricts became part of the AZRF, on July 7, 2020 –. A number of key aspects determine the relevance of this issue: ­ the need for an objective analysis of the present conditions and resources for the implementation of projects and programs in these territories (natural resources, industrial potential, infrastructure provision, human capital) ­ the importance of assessing the level of awareness of local government representatives and regional authorities about the existing instruments for regional development of the territories of the Russian Arctic. ­ the need to identify priority development projects for these territories, the specifics of the regulatory impact on them, the amount of allocated budget funds in order to maximize the systemic effect of the implementation of projects of integrated development of the Russian Arctic
