Old-age insurance pension for indigenous peoples of the North: an analysis of law enforcement practice

Abstract. The article proposes an analysis of different pension provision features for the indigenous peoples of the North, and a pension law enforcement practice, which is regulating a right and the procedures for early retirement pension for them. It is shown, that legal uncertainty throughout the interpretation of the concepts of “hunter” and “fisherman”is leading to violation of indigenous peoples social rights, including a right to a social pension. Significant contradictions between legal regulations and enforcement practice are found in certain subjects of the Russian Federation whose territories are places of traditional residence and traditional economic activities of indigenous small-numbered peoples of the Russian Federation. In conclusion,it is justified that systemic change in situation aimed at the improvement of the social status of this group of people is possible only when the changes in the labor and social legislation of the Russian Federation are amended.
