The article discusses the role of the pulp and paper industry (as a key part of the timber industry) in economic and spatial development of modern Russia. The authors identify main trends in the economic and spatial development of the pulp and paper industry of European Russia, draw the conclusions on the expected industry trends and give recommendations for strategic management decisions to respond to industry challenges. The authors claim that the industry needs liberalization and stabilization, primarily through moratoriums on policy changes. The role of the use of big data, and in particular of text mining in economic and geographical research for reasonable and objective conclusions formation that can be used to make timely and balanced management decisions in the timber industry and the pulp and paper industry, is emphasized.","PeriodicalId":148240,"journal":{"name":"Regional nye issledovaniya","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124411247","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The degree of economic diversification of the regions and the level of their innovation potential were of key importance. As the result, the largest cities (Moscow and St. Petersburg) were in a relatively favorable position, where restrictions in certain types of activity were offset by an increase in demand for a number of complex services (in the IT sphere and others), the accelerated introduction of online formats of activity and remote employment. The specialization of the regional economy also mattered: the decline in the automotive industry was the highest, which is typical for crises. The general decline of the world economy hit the regions with large-scale extraction of fuel and energy resources. In 2020, the traditional factor of regional development was also significant – the capacity of sales markets, which also contributed to the growth of production in the largest cities and regions working for their markets and slowed down the development of manufacturing industries in the Far East. The border position of the regions did not have a clear impact on their development. It is assumed that the state anti-crisis policy allowed to slow down the decline in problem activities,while the increase in the production of goods and services in demanded activities was associated with the objective advantages of the territories.","PeriodicalId":148240,"journal":{"name":"Regional nye issledovaniya","volume":"70 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122587690","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

First of all, the role of L.S. Berg and the entire school of Russian naturalists, of which he was a representative, in the first period of Saushkin's formation as an encyclopedic geographer should be totally reconsidered. It seems that the ideas and achievements of this stage of the «early» Saushkin, as well as the whole concept of anthropogeography, cultural landscape, «landscape» evolution, etc., may be of significant interest for the modern development of Russian economic geography, in response to the challenges facing our science. The departure of Yu.G. Saushkin from a landscape integration paradigm to a rayon-type one, and a radical change in the creative credo at the second stage of his scientific biography was absolutely inevitable and objective. But this does not mean that we do not need to look for a constructive potential for the development of our science, which is contained in his early works and the works of L.S.

The hypothesis is being tested that development poles may arise in the capital regions, reducing the economic potential of the regions located between them. Close proximity to the capitals, relatively low time and financial costs of moving, attractive offers on the labor market in the capital regions, differentiation of the breadth and depth of the assortment on the goods and services market – these and other features characterize the economic system of the intercapital. In this study, the goal is to consider the dynamics of the statistical indicators of the consumer market of the Russian-Belarusian intercapital in comparison with national indicators. The retail trade turnover and the volume of paid services to the population were chosen as the main indicators of the consumer market. The lag of the analyzed indicators in the intercapital region from the national values is proved. It is also confirmed by the indicators of the solvency of the population, which are discussed in the article. Graphically shows the differentiation of some regions of central Russia and Belarus in terms of average per capita indicators of the consumer market. Comparison of statistical indicators shows that the inter-capital position is a factor that can have a destructive impact on the consumer market of such regions.","PeriodicalId":148240,"journal":{"name":"Regional nye issledovaniya","volume":"15 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123174485","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Egorov","doi":"10.5922/1994-5280-2022-1-4","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.5922/1994-5280-2022-1-4","url":null,"abstract":"Period 1970–2019 characterized by a decrease in the number of rural populations of the Republic of Tatarstan by 1.7 times with an increase in the urban population by 1.9 times. Depopulation processes in the rural periphery led to the transformation of settlement through changes in the structure of the network of rural settlements. Main trends: reduction in the total number of rural settlements; rapid polarization, i.e., an increase in the relative share and absolute number of the smallest rural settlements. This process is largely due to the loss of population by small and medium-sized rural settlements. There was a process of “flowing” of rural settlements from one category in terms of numbers to another, lower in rank. At this stage, only the number of large villages with a population of more than 1 thousand people is stable. Since the beginning of the 2000s. In Russia, the Program for Optimizing the Network of Educational Institutions began to be implemented. In rural areas of the Republic of Tatarstan, the most intensive restructuring of the school network has been carried out since 2008, and by 2015 the number of schools was approximately 46% of their number in the 2001/02 academic year. After 2015, there has been a noticeable slowdown in the network optimization process, with only a slight negative trend. The dominant factor established - the level of occupancy of students in an educational organization when deciding on its reorganization or liquidation provides a rationale for making a forecast for the further course of the transformation of the school network. If we take the occupancy rates of rural schools as conditional criteria, then as of today, about 57% of secondary and 53% of basic educational organizations do not enroll the required number of students.","PeriodicalId":148240,"journal":{"name":"Regional nye issledovaniya","volume":"62 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125386004","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Kagansky","doi":"10.5922/1994-5280-2022-3-1","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.5922/1994-5280-2022-3-1","url":null,"abstract":"A summary of the author’s scientific achievements in general and geographical limology over 40 years is provided. The category “boundary” is placed among categories: dialogue, identity, map, compromise, conflict, landscape, position, space, wayfaring/journey, diversity, reflection, etc. Boundaries span the entire spectrum of “arbitrary lines---active symbols---corporeal/physical edges---active axes.” The logic of boundary-making as partitioning and the novel types of boundaries are examined. Boundary-making as partitioning is distinguished from boundary-making as separation. Symmetric and asymmetric boundaries are also distinguished. The logical status of boundaries is specified from the standpoint of the logic of regioning (as distinct from regionalization). The special character of boundaries and working with boundaries is stated with reference to cultural landscape. The relationship between boundaries, transition zones and ecotones is considered. The fundamental duality of boundaries in research and application is defined as the duality of corporeal/physical edge of place (region) versus sign of place. The status of the problem of borders and the status of the borders themselves in different regionalization practices are clarified. Differences and connections of borders outside the districts and inter-district borders are indicated. The meaning of the border as distinguishing and dismembering is shown. A number of well-known semantic border paradoxes are summarized and new ones are formulated. A new general idea of the map is given. Ideas about nomogenic regions and borders, limogenic and limocentric systems are introduced. Atypology of border zones based on “contact - barrier” is developed. A general typology of borderline identities is given. The ecological and cultural-semiotic meanings and functions of boundaries/ecotones and the meaning and value of boundaries in landscape are defined. A summary of limological analysis of a series of places is given: ribbon (tape) forests, “opolyes— polesyes” (as geographical concepts somewhat related to Opolye and Polesye areas), Inner Periphery, Urals, etc. The scientific field of limology is distinguished from the applied sphere of “limonautics.”","PeriodicalId":148240,"journal":{"name":"Regional nye issledovaniya","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129986521","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

From the author’s point of view, this will be possible when solving a number of conceptual and applied problems. This is a clear articulation of a multi–scale approach in state spatial policy in general and in relation to the formation of the settlement system in particular - a clear statement of goals and objectives at the level of macro-regions, regions (subjects of the Russian Federation), municipalities, determining the balance of these partly inevitably contradictory goals. In order to justify the decisions taken, it is important to radically advance the quality of municipal statistics: the approval of the official methodology for calculating the gross municipal product, the active use of the resources of the Federal Tax Service, ensuring comparability of data on municipalities and subjects of the Russian Federation. In order to transform municipalities into real subjects of spatial development, it is necessary to study, within the framework of the upcoming reform of local self- government, the issues of differentiation of the powers of local self-government bodies of municipalities of different population and type, the expansion of the powers of local authorities, especially large and largest cities, as well as issues of management and strategic planning in urban agglomerations. As part of the development of measures of state support for the development of rural areas and small towns, the author suggests paying special attention to the issues of motorization of the population.","PeriodicalId":148240,"journal":{"name":"Regional nye issledovaniya","volume":"226 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133480375","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Depending on the balance of these two functions, a certain type of cross-border cooperation is formed and, as a result, the type of border regions. From this point of view, the author proposes to distinguish five theoretical types of border regions. At the same time, this typology can be applied both in the territorial and temporal aspects. Using a comparative geographical and analytical method of research, a functional-temporal typology of the Russian-Polish and Russian-Lithuanian state borders was carried out from the moment of their formation to the present. Time stages were identified, in which a certain balance of the contact and barrier functions of the border was established. The results of the study show that the Russian-Polish border changed the balance of contact and barrier functions more often than the Russian-Lithuanian one, and these changes were multidirectional. The Russian-Lithuanian border changed in one direction, towards the gradual growth of its barrier function.","PeriodicalId":148240,"journal":{"name":"Regional nye issledovaniya","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128629661","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Medvednikova","doi":"10.5922/1994-5280-2022-2-3","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.5922/1994-5280-2022-2-3","url":null,"abstract":"The article presents a structured review of foreign theoretical approaches to explaining the inequality of cities in terms of socio-economic development. The purpose of the article is to fill the lack of knowledge about these approaches in the Russian-language scientific literature, as well as to popularize their use in Russian urban studies. The article shows that the bulk of theories explaining the emergence and dynamics of inter-urban inequality have been developed only since the 1970s–90s. The evolution of theories of inter-urban inequality poorly corresponds with the general course of paradigm shift in geographical research: although there is an increase in attention to the consideration of human factors in later theoretical approaches (as in the humanistic paradigm in geography), they do not prevail over approaches based on economic theories and continue to develop along with the last ones. Several economic theoretical approaches of the XX century get a new reading in the studies of the 2000s and 2010s (the theory of allometric scaling of cities, the theory of agglomeration advantages, etc.). The newest theoretical approaches of the 2010s–20s, in comparison with ones of the 1990s–2000s, are characterized by a concentration of attention on a smaller number of more specific factors (for example, regulation of the housing market, the implementation of «smart city» elements), the assessment of which requires the expansion of the use of qualitative methods. There is no dominance of any of the invented theories – both old and new theories are used by foreign authors in modern studies of intercity inequality. The emergence of new approaches in the 2020s underlines that the theoretical framework of research in the field of inter-urban inequality still continues to develop.","PeriodicalId":148240,"journal":{"name":"Regional nye issledovaniya","volume":"31 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125230424","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Three periods of changes in the distribution of the rural population were identified: soviet (1970–1991), de-urbanization (1991–2000) and suburbanization (weakly expressed in the 2000s and clearly pronounced since the 2010s). The first period under consideration fell on the peak of the decline in the rural population, but the pole near the regional center depopulated less intensively than the distant periphery. The de-urbanization period did not have clear territorial trends in changes in the number of inhabitants. In the 2010s. There is a steady increase in the population in the areas of neighbors of the largest cities of the republic. A more detailed study showed that this increase is largely associated with the settlement of urban-type residential complexes. 1970 to 2019 the share of rural residents living in areas bordering the city of Kazan and Naberezhnye Chelny increased from 15.1 to 25%. Similar polarization processes are taking place at the municipal level. The period considered from 2002 to 2019 showed the process of increasing the share of the population of the administrative center from the total population of the district. In more than half of the cases, this process took place due to population growth in the centers of municipalities and the decline of the rest of the population. The population in other municipalities decreased in the administrative centers less intensively than outside them.","PeriodicalId":148240,"journal":{"name":"Regional nye issledovaniya","volume":"47 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131566411","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
