Comparative Analysis of Regional Development of Northern Territories

Asian Social Science, 2015

The analysis of northern regional development on the basis of the synthesis of comparative research and historical method is carried out in the article. The study of social and economic system enables us to understand better the roles of factors and methods of the governmental control of regional development as well as their position in social and economic and geopolitical aspect. The northern regions of such countries as Russia (Kamchatka Krai), Canada (Yukon), the USA (Alaska), Japan (Hokkaido), and Iceland and Greenland were chosen as an object of research. All these regions play a strategically significant role in social and economic development of own countries and have climatic similarities. The determination of common features of regional social and economic modeling makes it possible to compare the development of regions, having the same climatic, economic and geopolitical conditions but different levels of economic activity There is the statistics generalization, characterizing various activities of regions, including structure of economy, its infrastructure supply, demographical situation, and financial sphere, that enables to see the features of national models of regional economies development. It is also proved that ignoring the actual connection between regional system elements and external and internal factors leads to loosing historical and social and economic basis in research.

The Transformation of Economic Development in the Border Regions of Russia and Kazakhstan in the Post-Soviet Period

Studies of the Industrial Geography Commission of the Polish Geographical Society

The prospects and trends for the development of border regions of the former Soviet Union have become one of the profound research areas in the field of economic geography recently. In the conditions of planned economy in the Republics of the USSR, a vertical system of industrial complexes was formed, with the focus on performing national economic tasks. There have been some significant changes in the border regions of independent post-Soviet States in the process of transition to the market economy model. The analysis of the industrial and territorial structure is done on the example of Russia and Kazakhstan. The formation of a common market on the basis of the Eurasian Economic Union allowed the border regions to make the most of their competitive advantage in attracting investments. The unique geographical particularity of the research object is manifested in the fact that there are no analogues of the longest land border in the world as between Russia and Kazakhstan. The new for...

Frontier and peripherality as factors of socio-economic development of Russian-Belorussian border regions

2013

Russian Federation is one of the countries in the world where concentration of decreasing areas is the highest. Vast majority of such territories is located in the European part of the country. At the same time the state policy in the field of regulation of socioeconomic development still has unidirectional character and is expressed only in formation of the stimulating measures adapted for the most perspective areas (large cities, suburb, transport knots, seaside areas). Regions with uncertain prospects receive less not only private investments, but also the state measures for providing normal level of social and economic development. The identification of genetic factors of depression on an example of one of decreasing territories in the European part of the country-Russian-Belarussian borderlandwas made in the given work. Quiet negative situation in Russian-Belorussian border region calls into question its future development even under the influence of the integration effect of the union state creation. The social and economic depression of these areas can be explained by the different reasons. One of the major factor of negative dynamics is population decline. In some areas the economic decrease is connected with closing of city-forming enterprises. Areas near the large cities can apply for positive influence of agglomeration effect (occurrence of the new industrial enterprises, logistical complexes, recreational objects). For the areas which are not possessing resources of growth the most actual are preservation of social guarantees for the population, stimulation of moving of the most active population in other regions, etc. The results of the study proved that the main lines and nodes of the territorial structures of the border areas are at the same time the «corridors» and «centers» of transborder links. In other areas low intensity of communications doesn't allow to gain additional positive social and economic effect. The development of the differentiated mechanisms of regulation of social and economic development is based in the given work on the statistical analysis of socioeconomic indexes and 2 empirical researches in key areas. The research provides the typology of the border regions between Russia and Belarus (taking into account the influence of frontier and peripherality on socio-economical development and perspectives of transborder cooperation).

How to assess advantages of economic-geographical position for Russian regions?

The category of economic-geographical position (EGP) was formalized based on a review of the scientific literature. The developed method of international and interregional EGP potential assessment was based on the use of gravity models; it can further be widely used in regional studies to explore the benefits of the spatial location of objects (countries, regions, cities, etc.). These calculations for Russia's regions showed significant spatial differentiation. The maximum potential of interregional EGP potential have the regions located near Moscow and St. Petersburg agglomerations, the potential decreases uniformly to the east. The maximum international EGP potential concentrated in regions on the coast of the Black Sea, the Baltic Sea and the Sea of Japan. The potential of the Kaliningrad region 5.6 times higher than it is for the Tyva Republic. In addition, it was revealed a significant increase in the total EGP potential in the 2000s, and its shift to the southern regions of the Far East due to the growth of the Asia-Pacific economies. The results were also used to identify connections between the EGP potential and indicators of socioeconomic development. It was found that favourable EGP is one of the factors for GRP growth, investment, foreign trade, migration growth and spread of new technologies. Formalizing EGP as a category allows using it to predict the spatial changes in the socioeconomic development of Russia.
