Abstract (AI)
The article raises a number of scientific and practical problems, actualized by the widespread use of the «agglomeration» category in the text of «Spatial development strategy of the Russian Federation for the period up to 2025». The author presents his views on the place of agglomerations in the spatial structure of society, the difficulties of their interdisciplinary study, the methods for identifying agglomerations and describing their structure, the approaches to regulating agglomeration processes in Russia and its Far Eastern region. Attention is drawn to the risks associated with the high uncertainty of the consequences of strategic transformations of the Russian space
Key Findings
1
Agglomerations occupy a significant but complex place in society’s spatial structure and require interdisciplinary study.
2
Existing approaches face methodological difficulties in identifying agglomerations and describing their internal structure.
3
Strategic transformations of Russia’s spatial structure entail substantial risks because their consequences remain highly uncertain.
4
The article examines approaches to regulating agglomeration processes in Russia, with particular attention to the Far Eastern region.
5
The widespread use of “agglomeration” in Russia’s Spatial Development Strategy raises scientific and practical problems requiring clarification.
Research Object
Russian urban agglomerations, particularly those in the Far Eastern region, within the spatial structure of society
Research Subject
The interdisciplinary identification, structural description, regulation, and transformation risks of agglomeration processes
