Данное пилотное исследование направлено на изучение круизов в Арктику глазами туристов, то есть через призму их отзывов. Благодаря отзывам туристов мы можем посмотреть, что для туристов важно в круизах в Арктику и что производит наибольшее впечатление, на что туристы обращают внимание. Благодаря их опыту у нас есть возможность сравнить, совпадают ли ожидания от туров (маршрут, природа, животные, питание, обслуживание, профессионализм команды) и реальность и найти поле для развития.
Подход, использованный в нашем пилотном исследовании, позволяет выявить тренды в поведении туристов и восприятии ими арктических круизов. Полученные результаты можно использовать для повышения качества обслуживания туристов и уточнения маркетинговой стратегии круизных компаний.
Tajikistan is one of the main migrant origin countries in the post-Soviet space, with about one million labour migrants living and working in Russia. The country also represents one of the most remittance-dependent economies in the world. By exploring how and why the Tajik government has been seeing and engaging with labour migrants since 1991, this article analyses the development of emigration policy in this country. In doing so, the article proposes to de-reify the state and account for complex policy processes, with many actors directly and indirectly involved in both policy-making and implementation. Four aspects are analysed: shifts occurring in emigration policy-making over time and under the influence of different domestic actors; the actual assistance offered to labour migrants; the impact of Russia as the main host country; and the influence of international organisations in the context of the nascent global migration governance. This complex environment explains why over time Tajikistan’s emigration policy moved from a laissez-faire phase, through a proactive, then a “messy”, to a reactive one; why the Tajik authorities have followed often contradictory pathways of (non)involvement with labour migrants; and why there is a distinction between declared policies and informal practices performed by the state.

This article considers the activism of a range of youth activist groups that seek to uphold the ‘moral order’ in contemporary Russian society. They promote strict adherence to a healthy lifestyle including avoidance of alcohol, drugs and sexual promiscuity and oppose those whose choices and behaviour do not conform to their own values and moral attitudes. Such ‘pro-moral order’ activism is associated with traditionalist, conservative, right-wing nationalist movements fighting for the morality of the ‘ethnic Russian’ population but also attracts young people engaged in movements formerly sponsored by the Russian state. The article traces the composition of this complex activist terrain, examines the motives of participants in a range of movements, identifies the ideas and principles underpinning participants’ social mission and reveals intra-movement conflicts. The article explores the fine line activists tread between conflict and cooperation with the state and its law enforcement agencies and considers how some activist groups become stigmatised in public discourse. Drawing on a relational approach to morality, it demonstrates the importance of interaction – including conflictual interaction – to shaping what is considered permissible and valued and how the struggle for ‘moral order’ is a site of both community and conflict for young people in contemporary Russia.
