Redevelopment of the Arctic Area of Russia as an Objective of Systems Research and Special-Purpose Program Management Methodological Issues

Summary/Abstract: The paper substantiates the methodological foundations of implementation of the rules and regulations of the development ofthe Arctic region of Russia, which relies on the hypothesis interpreting such development as the biggest integrated megaproject inthe history of Russia. The substantiation involves both the project-oriented approach to identify the subject-matter of the researchand the systems approach to assess the key opportunities of providing the integrative structure of the megaproject in the conditionsof drastic differences between the areal components of the Arctic region, and to study the internal and external factors’ impact onthe character, drivers and pace of the region redevelopment. The set of consistent methodological positions concerning their policyimplementation by responsible governmental agencies in the foreseeable future of the Arctic is developed. The most importantposition involves the identification of the objective of the public administration of the Arctic region development as a systemicallyorganized entity of multiple coordinated actions of the federal, regional and municipal authorities, corporations and civil societyinstitutions integrated by the unique policy target and economic, social and infrastructure links. Implementation of the publicadministration requires the principles of systems approach, the reasonable trade-off between centralization, decentralization andcontinuity of governance focused exclusively on the Arctic issues. At the same time, the integration of the projects of the region’sareal components development to insure the common targets of the Arctic’s megaproject accompanied by the reconsideration ofthe earlier developed programs turns into a genuinely new methodological issue. In the article, recommendations to provide suchintegration are introduced.
