Abstract
The paper deals with international research initiatives devoted to studying the indigenous peoples of Yakutia, living in the Arctic regions. It is noted that scientific studies resulted in defining two oppositely directed factors which affected the activity of indigenous peoples — the desire to strengthen the role of the elements of traditional way of life along with growing influence of various modernization and assimilation processes.
