Survival is conditionally divided into several sections. For example, they distinguish between survival in extreme situations (accidents, catastrophes) and life in conditions of autonomous existence. In the first case, it is assumed that a person enters an unfavorable environment without a tool. And in the second case, they mean that a person lives in a harsh unfavorable environment, isolated from civilization, but he takes risks consciously and intelligently plans his life, and for this he has certain skills, supplies, weapons, means of communication and tools that make life easier. It is believed that the slang term in the world of survivalists " bushcraft " refers to autonomous existence."(The term is of Australian origin, as it originally referred to Australian aborigines who adapted to live in unfavorable, by the standards of European colonists, desert conditions).

1. Survival
As a wise man once said, “The history of the world, my sweet, is
who gets eaten and who gets to eat.” That’s survival in a
nutshell. It’s the act of continuing to live, usually when others
fail.
As the Bee Gees put it in disco’s heyday — survival means
“staying alive.” If you look closely, you’ll spot viv in the middle
of survival. That’s part of the Latin verb vivere, meaning “to
live.” You might recognize it from words like vivid "lively" and
vivacious "full of life." Combine it with sur- (over) and you’ll
grasp the essence of survival: to keep existing despite hardship
or after others die. Charles Darwin’s term survival of the fittest

2. means that only the best equipped live will reproduce and
survive.
Survival is the struggle of a person for life with a sharp
change in environmental conditions, in the absence of the usual
household amenities. Basically, survival skills solve specific
tasks related to maintaining the vital functions of the body -
satisfying hunger, quenching thirst, protection from bad
weather and health-threatening dangers, as well as treatment
and heating. Special training in safety and survival skills gives a
person useful skills that can be used, a common vision of the
picture of the current situation, allows faster and more
thorough analysis of risks, opportunities and behavior
strategies.

Sometimes books and publications on survival are difficult to
attribute to any particular category. Survival with some
detachment also includes the subject of the school life safety
course and various manuals on general personal security.
Survival in war zones is also a separate category. A lot of
survival manuals have been published in the world based on
the experience of various paramilitary special forces units (such
as the GRU , SAS ). Such books also should not be
unambiguously confused with the subject of survival. Since in
this category there may be separate benefits for both the
sniper and entire armored divisions.
There is also a category of survival on the edge with fiction
from films related to the post-apocalypse (a code name, for
example, for the consequences of a global nuclear war). This
area of survival has its own range of tasks and its own theory of
survival, close to stalking , and life in abandoned cities, with
their degrading and aggressive population, in the face of a long-

Shelter can range from natural shelters such as caves or fallen
trees, to an intermediate form of man-made shelters such as
rubbish, a hut, tree, pit, shelter, or caves in the snow, to
entirely man-made structures such as a tarpaulin , awning , or
wigwam.

7. Shelters also include the Protective Structures of Civil Defense
(ZSGO). As a rule, the WWPS are designed to shelter a large
number of people for a short period of time. Separate
operating rules have been created for them, including control
over the quality and composition of the air.
Single-family private bunkers are usually designed for long-term
autonomy.
sychological survival of the individual

8. A separate aspect of human survival is psychological survival in
a new reality (technical, informational, social), in a constantly
changing society. A person needs to adapt himself to new
conditions, while not losing himself, maintaining his personal
integrity and internal stability. [1] .
Risk factors for survival that are psychosocial in nature:
Complication of social and economic conditions of life
Long-term emotional stress
A set of negative events that affect a person's lifestyle
Continuous life changes
Criminal environment, including terrorist acts
Uncertainty and unpredictability of life prospects
Satiation with social interaction
The threat of man-made disasters
Man's survival in the world is connected with his ability
