... residents. The study con­cludes that, despite the extensive legal framework, the effectiveness of implemented measures in Saint Petersburg cannot be unambiguously assessed. First, negative trends are identified—such as declining marriage and birth rates, an increase in serious crimes among minors, and a rise in divorces—coexisting with positive developments, including the growth of large fami­lies, the maintenance of high educational achievements among schoolchildren, and the high status of ...

For a long period, the Karelians have occupied a leading position among the titular peoples of the republics of Russia in terms of the rate of population decline. The aim of the study is to identify trends and main factors in the change in the concentration of Karelians at the level of Russian regions in the period between the 1959 and 2021 censuses, broken down into two time intervals ...

The article focuses on methodological tendences in urban language research. Authors, meanwhile, substantiate rationality of its spoken and written varieties as separate fields of study. These studies are marked with a high rate of activity and they highlight a new concept of the «regiolect» — a regional variety of the national language. The analysis of the scientific results of linguo-urbanistics reveals the dominance of the onomastic vector and obvious lack of research ...

The experience of determining the ethnic contrast of the borders of the republics in the Ural-Volga region is presented based on a methodology that relies on assessing interethnic marriage rates between the titular nations of the republics and the Russian population. To achieve this, the study introduces an indicator called the Ethnic Contrast Coefficient, or the Soroko coefficient. The calculation of the coefficient is based on the assessment ...

... This study explores a novel freshwater microalgae isolate, Chlorella sp. B1, as a potential platform for biomass production. The research evaluated the isolate’s ability to grow in mixotrophic media. The results reveal a relationship between growth rate and dynamic changes in biomass composition. The use of granulated forms of the fertilizer “Fertika Universal” as a nutrient medium significantly increased the optical density of the initial solution to 0.087, more than doubling the results compared ...

... population censuses (both national and all-Union since 1959). The methodological foundation of the study includes general scientific methods (generalization, analysis, comparison), as well as statistical and cartographic methods. The study finds that the rate of decline in the number and share of Russians significantly increased after 2021, particularly in Estonia — by a factor of 10 in 2021 compared to 2020. Negative trends are observed across all regions. The highest representation of Russians in ...

The article describes the results of a socio-psychological research of as­sumptions about the future of participants of the World Youth Festival (2017). The authors used the method of associations, which allowed them to reveal structural elements of reality in the future, in 10 years time, as it is im­agined by youth, including the expected changes in society and personality. The authors analyse the data describing gender-specific assumptions about the future. The analysis of international data made...

... “our country”. The press emphasised that residents of the Kaliningrad region were a part of the Soviet people and along with the rest of the citizens of the USSR were involved in the overall development of the country. At the same time, the high rate of emigration from the region in the post-war years suggests that the work of the local media could not mask the problems that existed.

There is an increasing need for the assessment of urban development rates in the world. In modern Russia, this need is reaffirmed by the transfor­mation of regional economies, the economic acceleration of many major cities, and by the active introduction of strategic management tools (KPI, etc.). The article anal­yses ...

During the period of implementation of the policy of import substitution in Russia, the level of production of basic agricultural products is gradually approaching the rational rate of their consumption. The biggest gap in provid­ing the population with basic food remains in the production of milk. Only 71.0 % of the recommended norm of dairy produce is consumed. At the same time, in 2017, the level of self-sufficiency of Russia ...

The economic and demographic situation in the Kaliningrad region is better than in most regions of the country. The dynamic economic deve­lop­ment results in high employment and low unemployment rates. The demand for labour force is partially satisfied through high net migration rate. Ho­we­ver, there are obvious distinctions between municipalities. Having analyzed the statistical data on the situation in urban districts, the authors identified ...
