Description
Summary:Abstract The article substantiates the strategic role of Arctic territories for ensuring security and sustainable development of the Russian Federation. The authors analyze renowned and contemporary research in the field of social development management, as well as determine similar features of the Arctic policies of Arctic zone countries, separately considering the specificities of Russia. Particular attention is paid to social quality, which is presented as the main element of social development. The authors identify six key elements of social quality: social and economic security, social inclusion, social cohesion, social activity, social justice, and social authority. An interpretation of these elements structure is given. The material of the Yamalo-Nenets Autonomous Okrug (YANAO) presents the results of a sociological study of social quality components assessments. The highest rating is given to the level of regional socio-economic security (sense of personal security, protection of interests and values, resources for self-realization, etc.). While the level of social inclusion receives the lowest rating (desire to participate in regional social, economic, cultural life, satisfaction with social services system, quality of social infrastructure, territory’s comfort for living, etc.). Authors conclude that the obtained estimates correspond to the average level, but are below the normative value. The paper presents recommendations for improving social development management on the example of specific Arctic region of the Russian Federation.
