Вопросы пространственного развития российских регионов

Abstract

The problem of institutional support for the regions development includes the presence of a large number of institutions (formal and informal), which rather than interacting with each other exclude the possibility of building a common institutional system of regional development, which determines the relevance of the study. The aim of this study was to analyze the spatial aspect of regions development, reflected in one element of the formal institution of spatial development — territorial planning schemes for the constituent entities of the Russian Federation. The subject of the study is the territorial planning schemes of the constituent entities of the Russian Federation, including master plans for cities of federal significance. The content analysis of regional territorial planning schemes showed that the spatial aspect appeared in these documents even before the development of the Strategy for Spatial Development of Russia. At the same time, there are significant differences in the used conceptual apparatus of territorial and spatial development, as well as in approaches to filling both the provisions of the territorial planning scheme and, to a greater extent, justification materials, despite the existing requirements reflected in the Urban Planning Code. The identified problem reflects the need to develop methodological requirements for filling in the documents of territorial planning schemes of regions in order to simplify interaction in the placement of objects on their own and in border areas with neighboring territories, including infrastructural ones.
