Description
Summary:The multifaceted impact of globalization on nature and the environment became even clearer in the 21st Century, when physical changes on the world's geography were also triggered. Explorations and regional surveys of the world at the poles have been evolved into policies on a global, regional and national scale, with changing and differentiating geographical events. The Arctic is a new area of life, including not only countries within the Arctic circle at the North Pole and riparian to the Arctic Ocean, but also extraterritorial and international organizations. This article examined a chronological time-line on the core of Arctic Zone of the Russian Federation (AZRF), aims at carrying out a comperehensive research on Russian regional and international Arctic policy within the Post-Soviet period. Russia's sea/ocean policy in the Arctic, which it has worked hard for the last thirty years, and its policies that it has implemented quickly in recent years, are plained by D.Medvedev's ‘Modernisation of Russia’ reformist approach. This theoretical approach arose from the addition of the Russian Federal administrative structure and political culture to its IR-neo-liberalist and neo-realist policies. This article also discussed in Russia’s new ‘Modernisation’approach. Russian and English scholarly sources were used in this article.
