Abstract
An analysis of changing diet patterns during the Soviet and post-Soviet periods was carried out among sea mammal hunters (villages of Lorino and Lavrentiya) and reindeer herders (village of Vaegi) of Chukotka. Economic and ethnic factors in the choice of food were investigated. The results show that both studied groups are developing diets that substantially differ from both the traditional and the “Soviet” ones.
Résumé
Une analyse des changements des régimes alimentaires durant les périodes soviétique et post-soviétique fut effectuée parmi les chasseurs de mammifères marins (villages de Lorino et Lavrentiya) et les éleveurs de rennes (village de Vaegi) de la Tchoukotka. Les facteurs économiques et ethniques dans le choix de la nourriture furent examinés. Les résultats démontrent que les groupes étudiés sont en train de développer une alimentation qui diffère considérablement de celles des périodes traditionnelle et soviétique.
