Долина р. Ягноб в своей верхней части представляет собой пример изолированного периферийного района, типичного для высокогорных районов Азии и в особенности Таджикистана, где почти каждая высокогорная долина имеет свой неповторимый этнокультурный уклад и формы ресурсопользования с высокой степенью адаптации к природным условиям. Объективная природная изолированность Ягнобской долины способствовала сохранению в ее верховьях уникального народа – ягнобцев, язык которых близок к древнесогдийскому языку, относящемуся к восточно-иранской языковой группе. Жесткая зависимость характера природопользования от природных условий и процессов, а также удаленность и низкая доступность ограничили развитие и применение новых методов хозяйствования. В работе делается акцент на исследование пространства существования (экзистенциального пространства) ягнобцев, модель которого описывает характер использования земель, сопровождаемые при этом риски и возможные пути к их преодолению. В пределах нынешнего характера природопользования имеются четыре наиболее важных типа риска, угрожающих разрушению сложившихся природно-хозяйственных связей: агроклиматический риск, риск склоновых процессов, антропогенная деградация ландшафтов, социально-политический риск. The Yagnob Valley represents in its upper part an example of isolated peripheral area very typical for highlands of Asia and especially for Tadjikistan, where each mountain valley has its own unique ethnic and cultural style of life and land use structure highly adapted to natural conditions. The natural isolation of the Yagnob Valley was conductive to the preservation in its upper part of an unique ethnic group – the Yagnobis whose language is very similar to the Ancient Sogdian language attributed to the East-Iranian language group. A strict dependence of land use type on natural conditions and natural processes as well as the peripheral positions and low accessibility limited the development and application of new economic methods. The study is undertaken with respect to model of the existential space of Yagnobi community affecting land use, risks and possibilities for survival. Within the limits of the existing structure of the natural resources use there are four very important types of risks that threaten to destroy existing relationship between the natural environment and the local economy: agroclimatic risk, risk of slope processes, anthropogenic degradation, the social and political risk.
