The circumpolar regions worldwide are facing new challenges and are developing themselves on the background of a turbulent present, which imposes changes in the environment and everyday life of the local communities. These lead to the emergence of new regimes of governance and coping strategies in the circumpolar regions worldwide, including in Russia.
