Expeditionary Research

From the very beginning the sphere of the scientific responsibility of the Institute included Siberia and the Far East. This is an understudied region but very reach in resources and development perspectives. Therefore, in 1960-1980-s complex economic and sociological expeditions became an effective method of studying the possibilities of potential development of the territory. Back then the fellows of our Institute, together with colleagues from the regional divisions of the Siberian Branch of the Russian Academy of Sciences (SB RAS) and also with the colleagues from Moscow and St-Petersburg and from abroad, participated in a range of pre-project research.

By our today’s standards, at that time grand visiting projects have been performed such as expedition along the Baikal-Amur railway which was a project under construction at that time (1976), expedition on river Lena (1984), expedition on the basins of rivers Ob and Irtysh (together with the Academy of Sciences of Kazakhstan, 1986), expedition on the Northern sea route (2000).  Also, huge amounts of field work have been carried out by the Novosibirsk economic-sociological school on collecting and updating the information within their studying the budgets of time.

Nowadays the traditions of complex expeditionary research are reviving: interdisciplinary groups are created, large-scale tasks are set up, relations with the bodies of power of the Siberian (and not only Siberian) regions and municipalities   are established; youth is attracted. In 2010-2015, the spectrum of the scientific problems under study with the use of information achieved in the course of the field research has been quite wide as well as the geography of the expeditionary trips. Diverse research has been carried out in regards to labor market, market of additional education, problems and perspectives of developing the regions of the Asian Russia, individual business activity in rural areas, rural models of consumption, role of big investors in rural territories, practices of trans-boundary relations, development of the human potential of youth, factors of sustainability in the rural development.
