Russian North and Far East Regional pages

The Russian North and Far East Regional Pages was a joint web project initiated in 1997 by the Anthropology, Russian and Northern Studies Group, previously called the Social Sciences and Russian Studies Group, (Otto Habeck, Paul Fryer and Tanya Argounova) and the Library of the Scott Polar Research Institute.

The aim was to create a webpage for each district in the region, with common demographic data from published sources and associated text, together with links to current and recent SPRI research in these areas, and to other appropriate websites. Each page was to be written by a postgraduate student or research associate from SPRI.

Two webpages were written on the following districts:

• East Siberia
  • Respublika Sakha (Yakutiya) / Republic of Sakha (Yakutia)
    written by Tanya Argounova.
  • Evenkiyskiy avtonomnyy okrug / Evenki Autonomous District
    written by Joachim Otto Habeck.

• Links to other Russian North and Far East websites

Compiled by Joachim Otto Habeck in July 1998.
