Problems Of Pensioners And Other Residents Of The Russian Arctic Monotowns

The paper presents the authors' vision of single-industry towns' residents' problems in the Russian Arctic. The methodological prerequisites for the research were reviews of approaches to assessing the state and development trends of single-industry towns, as we andic and foreign practices for solving their residents' problems. It has been shown that life in monotowns in the Russian Arctic is hampered, on the one hand, by systemic crises in the functioning of city-forming enterprises. On the other hand, by natural and geographical features of the northern territories. The paper reveals trends in the population size in monotowns in the Arctic. The Arctic zone of the Russia Federation and the monotowns located in it have been shown on the map. The reasons for systemic unemployment have been determined. The factors that form the systemic problems of single-industry towns' inhabitants in the Arctic have been revealed. Particular attention is paid to pensioners' problems since they are the least well-off category of single-industry towns located in the Arctic territories. It has been concluded that the problems cannot be solved by the forces of the population itself, local government bodies, and large mining companies without direct government control. The only way to solve the problem is government programs to help single-industry towns at the federal level. Such programs are available and are being realized now.
