Abstract

The article contains reasoned proposals on solving the most important problems of perspective development of the Arctic zone territories of the Russian Federation (Russian Arctic) - the consolidation of the population as the main productive force for implementation of the objectives of the state policy of the Russian Federation in the Arctic and the Strategy for socio-economic development of the Russian Arctic and ensuring national security up to 2020. Above mentioned documents as well as the State program of socio-economic development of the Russian Arctic up to 2020 are aimed at achieving a high indicators of a macroregion development, including science and technology development, improvement of the effectiveness of resources utilization of the Arctic zone and continental shelf of the Russian Federation in the Arctic and efficiency improvement of the state management of socio-economic development of the Arctic zone and the quality of life of the population of the Arctic zone. The implementation of the state program should create conditions for accelerated socio-economic development of the Arctic zone, the achievement of the strategic interests and national security of Russia in the Arctic. Among the main tools of its implementation is the creation of economic growth points - index zones. It is obvious that to achieve ambitious aims in production sphere it is necessary to relay on the labour resources of appropriate magnitude and professional training. However, the statistical information analysis on dynamics and factors changes in the population base of subjects of federation and the Arctic municipal formations allowed to detect a systematic outflow of labour resources of the macroregion during the last 10 years. Only in 2015 it amounted 22 835 people of working age. Sociological surveys allowed to discover the main reasons for sustainable migration from the Russian Arctic areas. They are: reduction of labor application area and extreme dissatisfaction with the living conditions (quality of housing and lack of opportunities to improve housing conditions, low level of social sphere development). The criteria for "comfortable living", is at a forefront of the population migration from even large settlements - index zones of the Arctic development.
