Big data analysis and changes in customer preferences in post-pandemic global tourism
The list of leading big data holders, whose market intelligence has the most authority for forecasting and planning in global tourism, as well as the reports based on big data analysis are of high importance to be verified. The study reveals a lack of attention to the big data potential for forecasting in tourism and use of traditional limited methods of consumer preferences research published in the annual reports and then circulate in media. Nevertheless, big data analysis implemented by various companies reflects a dramatic change in consumer priorities of the post-pandemic period and captures the demand for authenticity, variety, increased concern for physical and mental health, intangible luxury, and, in general, understanding that traveling is beginning to be perceived as one of essentials of healthy lifestyle. Given these limitations, the list of consumer preferences based on the reported tourism trends for 2023 is of practical relevance to all stakeholders in the industry

Development of the North 2.0: challenges of making a new theory
It is proposed to create a new theory of economic development of the North on three primary sources — the Soviet development school, the European school of regional studies, the North American school of frontier studies. Each of these schools relies on a broad conceptual foundation (location of productive forces, endogenous economic growth, innovative search), the fusion of which is capable of radically and positively transforming the theory of modern time. Comparison of the nature of the development process today and in the Soviet times reveals significant differences: an increase in spatial and temporal irregularity (polarization), multiactorism, glocalization, and the role of the grassroots “design” level. Numerous projects of new development implemented in the Russian Arctic and the North have common features in the form of an experimental nature, pilot-clone schemes for saving on experience, a plurality of equal status supply and training bases, etc. Large resource corporations that lead the world are directing actors of the territorial structure of the process of new development, and it depends on the internal organizational and institutional structure of the company itself
