Abstract

ABSTRACT The food security model envisions food supply from industrial agriculture, food production from smallholders, and food imports. The food sovereignty model emphasizes locally-sourced food from sustainable agriculture and implies self-sufficiency while being silent on the role of imports. This article argues that neither model fits Russia’s Far North well. Residents of the Far North are generally food secure based on consumption, but their food security is insecure because of questions surrounding the reliability of food supply. The article suggests four additional factors to the food security model to sensitize it to the Russian Far North.

俄罗斯远北地区粮食安全不安全

粮食安全模型设想粮食供应来自工业化农业，粮食生产来自小农，粮食进口。粮食主权模式强调来自可持续农业的本地食物，意味着自给自足，同时对进口的作用保持沉默。本文认为，这两种模式都不适合俄罗斯的远北地区。根据消费情况，远北地区的居民总体上是粮食安全的，但由于围绕粮食供应可靠性的问题，他们的粮食安全是不安全的。文章建议在粮食安全模型中增加四个因素，以使其对俄罗斯远北地区敏感。

期刊介绍： Polar Geographyis a quarterly publication that offers a venue for scholarly research on the physical and human aspects of the Polar Regions. The journal seeks to address the component interplay of the natural systems, the complex historical, political, economic, cultural, diplomatic, and security issues, and the interchange amongst them. As such, the journal welcomes comparative approaches, critical scholarship, and alternative and disparate perspectives from around the globe. The journal offers scientists a venue for publishing longer papers such as might result from distillation of a thesis, or review papers that place in global context results from coordinated national and international efforts currently underway in both Polar Regions.
