Competitiveness is one of the most frequently used concepts in the economic literature. Russian scientific journals have accumulated a large stock of research on approaches to the empirical assessment of competitiveness and competitiveness enhancement policies. However, so far there has been no attempt to carry out a comprehensive review of these studies. This paper is aimed to describe the current state and dynamics of Russian research on the topic of competitiveness, indexed by the most important in Russia scientific electronic library: eLIBRARY.ru. The key result of the article is the systematization of the main directions of studies performed by Russian researchers in the field of competitiveness from 2000 to 2020. The article shows that the dynamics of publications on this topic corresponds to the general trends of growth in the number of materials with a gradual decrease in the share of high-quality articles as well as the distribution of publications on the topic of competitiveness by journals and affiliations of authors. The evolution of trends in the choice of tools for improving competitiveness in Russian science is considered. The main practical use of this paper is a comprehensive review of Russian research on competitiveness, which can be beneficial for researchers who conduct empirical competitiveness assessments

Natural resources extraction, industrial and social development of the Eastern regions of Russia is associated with great costs and takes a long time. These costs are due to both natural and climatic conditions, and poor-developed infrastructure of the territory. Use of the project approach may accelerate regional development. The project approach assumes the achievement of goals in a short-time period and the use of various investment sources. The Krasnoyarsk Krai applies the project approach for natural resources extraction and industrial development. In the region, large-scale investment projects have been implemented for 20 years. These projects have huge socio-economic effects. The Krasnoyarsk Krai has unique features that make it possible to implement large-scale investment projects based on the principle of public-private partnership, where private investments make up the bulk of the total investment. The regional advantages are its geographical position; huge reserves of hydrocarbons, coal, gold and other minerals; involvement in natural resources development of large companies and investors, such as MMC Norilsk Nickel, Rosneft Oil Company, Rusal, Sberbank and others. Significant industrial and scientific potential also contributes to the successful implementation of large-scale investment projects in Krasnoyarsk Region. The purpose of the study is to assess the socio-economic effects of large-scale investment projects implemented in the Krasnoyarsk Krai. The paper analyzes investment projects for the integrated development of the Lower Angara region, the Arctic zone of the Krasnoyarsk Krai and «Yenisei Siberia». The results demonstrate that projects of natural resource use result in the infrastructure development, new jobs creation, an increase in tax revenues, and the acceleration of economic growth. The paper also identifies problems, bottlenecks and risks of the investment projects, which enables the planning and economic authorities of the region to correct investment decisions and prevent negative social, economic and environmental consequences

The topic is time-relevant, since today there is a strong need to find indicators showing a development path for countries after the pandemics of 2020 in specific regions of the world. This paper makes an attempt to create an indicator that is different and more representative of the BRICS than the indexes already in existence. The BRICS index offered here is a capitalisation-weighted average of daily quotations for the listed stocks which dynamics highly correlate with each other. The purpose of developing such an index is to monitor a general growth pattern of the BRICS’ economies and their corporations on the financial markets, both domestically and regionally, since they are at the core of the regions, they are in. The introduction of the BRICS index to the financial market can help increase investors’ appetite for the assets. It will make it easier to analyze the stock markets of the BRICS as well. The significance of such a rating is that it may lay the foundation for working out a trading strategy to deal in the stocks of the BRICS companies to get optimal returns. The BRICS stocks index can also be an indicator of regional development for countries dependent on the BRICS, as well as the product of financial engineering which may help attract investors and other professionals working on the financial market to accumulate growth and recovery funds for the trouble countries of the region

The paper describes the current state of agent-based modeling of geographical space and spatial economic systems. We explore reasons why this approach to modeling spatial phenomena is of particular interest. Agent-based models (ABMs) allow accounting for agents’ spatial heterogeneity, the existing structure of the space, locality of interactions between agents. A survey of approaches to introducing space into the models and examples of the existing spatial models is presented. There is a great variety of spatial ABMs, but they relate predominantly to the local and city level, rather than to the economy as a whole. Spatial ABMs at the level of large regions and countries are not yet sufficiently developed, but have good prospects in the future. With increasing availability of geodata and technological development in general the number of applications and coverage of spatial ABM will grow

Labour productivity is a driver of national competitiveness, economic growth, and living standards. Labour productivity of the Russian economy is significantly lower than that of developed countries, and the gap is increasing. Labour productivity for most Russian regions tends to be lower than the average across the country. Those regions, where it is higher than the average, are resource-abundant. This article studies the drivers of regional labour productivity across a particular resource-abundant region and its sectors. We used regional statistical data from the Krasnoyarsk Territory (Krai) statistical service. We evaluated the contribution of labour productivity across industries to the regional average and studied the impact of human capital quality, capital-labour ratio, and multifactorial productivity. Our results showed the predominant contribution of the export-oriented and mining sector to regional labour productivity growth. Moreover, we found that a significant driver was physical capital. A notable result was the increasing impact of multifactor productivity for many sectors

This article analyses the background, origins and elaboration of the Extreme North development plan 1977–1990. This plan was another attempt by the Soviet state to elaborate a programme for the development of the Far North territories, involving local, indigenous peoples in economic activities. Such an attempt had first been made under Nikita Khrushchev, but it was eventually abandoned due to the reform of industrial and construction management in 1957. In the late 1970s, with the changed foreign trade balance in the country, the need to develop the northern territories, integrating the indigenous population into the existing economic processes, arose. The state wanted to ensure that the traditional rural economy of the indigenous peoples of the North could reach the level of an industrial society. To this end, a new plan was drawn up. However, no indigenous people participated in the drafting process. The plan embodied the main characteristics of Soviet management: agency, planning and centralism. It envisaged an extensive modernization of all aspects of society in these areas. Its implementation was prevented by the reforms of 1980s and the following break-up of the USSR

The European and Asian parts of Russia are very different: in the former, the climate is milder, the population is many times larger, there are many jobs, high incomes. The latter is losing population – educated youth and qualified personnel leave for European Russia, or even further away, the de-industrialization of Asian regions of Russia continues – processing industries are closing. The Russian government is allocating almost 900 billion rubles for seven priority projects, the goal of which is the infrastructural development of a stagnating economy. About half of these funds will go for the development of Asian Russia. This will undoubtedly give an impetus to the development of new industries, and it is important to understand which ones of them will become the industries of specialization of the region, and which ones will contribute to higher levels of diversification of the regions of Asia (subject of research). Can the region itself influence the change in the structure of its economy, if its main specialization loses its relevance (de-industrialization, depletion of sources of natural resources, etc.)? To do this, it is necessary to assess the current state of the region and determine a new vector of its development. One or two selected industries of specialization should be supported by a set of related industries that can help balance the situation and make the region sustainably diversified (goal). Assessment and comparison of the spatial characteristics and potentials of the economies of Asian and European regions of Russia are based on the comparative analysis of current regional statistics of Russia and the analysis of publications on this issue (method). Comparative analysis of the sectoral structure in European and Asian regions of Russia in the territorial context confirmed significant differences in the specialization and diversification of their economies, which led to a steady slowdown in growth rates in the Asian part of the country over the past 10 years. For a greater effect during the restoration of the destroyed sectoral structure, the active participation of the regions themselves in the formation of a new structure of the economy (results) is necessary

Taking into consideration investigated approaches and advantages and disadvantages identified in the course of the research, the author developed an assessment approach of the efficiency of the regional sustainable innovative development from the perspective of sustainability. The assessment mechanism is based on the calculation of the integral index for two projections (innovative potential and innovative development efficiency). Testing of the current approach is implemented on the example of the resource-type regions of the Russian Federation. The research results can be used by regional government to monitor risks and threats in the innovation sector, as well as to adjust existing regulatory and strategic documents and improve mechanisms to ensure sustainable regional innovative development

The rapid growth of cities all over the world has inevitably led to the aggravation of economic, social and environmental problems. In this regard, developing «green», low-carbon, circular and other new economic models is necessary. Transport sector is an important source of greenhouse gas emissions and air pollutants. The purpose of this work is to assess the impact of urban public transport, especially electric buses, on the air quality. The authors have analyzed international and Russia’s experience of the low-carbon development of urban public transport and evaluated the environmental effects of transitioning to electric buses in Moscow using a regression model and data visualization tools. The results have shown that integrating electric buses into an urban transport system can be considered as a step towards the low-carbon development of the transport sector. The authors have identified a decrease in carbon monoxide (CO) pollution in the districts of Moscow where there are electric bus routes. Although the authors managed to demonstrate positive aspects of using e-buses instead of traditional ones, the proposed hypotheses were not fully confirmed due to limited data and a small number of electric bus routes at an early stage of the project. The results of the work can be used both in theoretical studies of sustainable development and practical implementation of programs for the low-carbon development of an urban transport network
