Abstract: The article examines issues related to the population, demographic processes and population of the world Arctic. It is noted that many problems have accumulated in the Arcticfrom socio-demographic to settlement. Each country solves these problems in its own way, using both universal and specific approaches. The article analyzes the approaches used in Russian and foreign practice in studying demographic processes and settlement of the World Arctic: demographic zoning, gender, geopolitical, qualitative, combined, intersectoral, descriptive and historical, statistical, network, systemic, socio-psychological, sociological, technical and economic, ecological and biological and a number of others. Using these approaches, the process of settlement/colonization, the system of population settlement, demographic trends in the World Arctic were studied. It is noted that the colonization of the European North of Russia took place from the 10th to the 17th centuries, Siberia and the Far East - from the end of the 16th to the middle of the 19th century. The settlement was carried out by its own people, Russia did not need to attract settlers from other countries. Based on the demographic approach, it was concluded that by the beginning of the 20th century the colonization process had been completed, natural demographic development and further development of the outlying territories had begun. In the foreign Arctic, colonization was initially of a commercial and industrial nature, then raw materials were extracted. Since the first half of the 20th century, military interest began to dominate, while today economic interest prevails in the development of the Arctic. Two opposite trends are observed in demographic development: the declining dynamics of the population in the Russian Arctic and its constant growth in the foreign one. The settlement network of the Russian Arctic was formed by cities of different sizes, in the foreign Arctic, small settlements were created in the initial period, and now the network of medium and large cities is expanding. In recent years, the shift method has become more widely used in the World Arctic.
Key words: World Arctic, population, demographic processes, settlement territories, approaches, features.
