| Summary: | Abstract The article reveals the current problems of the development of the indigenous peoples of the North. The problems are especially acute in places of intensive development of oil and gas resources of the Arctic zone of Russia. To preserve the indigenous peoples of the North, as an ethnic group, a prerequisite is the sustainable development of traditional industries in their traditional places of residence. The article proposes a differentiated approach to the formation of the most gentle mechanisms for preserving the traditional economy and the original culture of the indigenous peoples of the North in places of development of natural resources. For a population that has not lost its distinctive features in the economic structure and worldview, and does not want to change anything in its lifestyle, it would seem that the idea of creating ethnoparks would be suitable. The second, the main part of the population employed in the traditional economy, will live and work on the territories of patrimonial and communal lands. To enter the market (or coexist alongside it), it is necessary to develop efforts in two directions. The first is marketing, which includes the entire arsenal of tools necessary to identify, create, promote a northern product or service on the market. The second direction is production, containing the organization of production or services. In the production area, in this case, the role of factorories is obvious. For the third part of the ethnos not employed in the traditional economy, such activities are necessary that would be associated with the traditional economy, being its continuation, and thereby do not destroy the unity of the ethnos. |
