Different regional legislation frameworks, path-dependent practices and company policies have resulted in a broad-spectrum of negotiated arrangements. This study shows that indigenous opinions are often ignored in areas where resource extraction is prioritized. In Russia's illiberal context, indigenous communities receive significant opposition from extractive companies, whose capacity and expertise in the negotiation process are far more extensive. Extractive industries in the Russian Arctic that are inspired by new possibilities involving developing natural resources are ill-prepared to engage in benefit-sharing commitments. This paper concludes that, in the context of the Russian North, agreements involving oil and gas companies downplay the uneven landscape in which indigenous rights are largely ignored.}, pages = {68--74}, title = {Indigenous peoples and extractive industry encounters: Benefit-sharing agreements in Russian Arctic}, volume = {21}, year = {2019} }
