On the basis of historical and economic studies and analysis of the experience of spatial development of the national economy of the USSR, the conclusion is made about the relevance and necessity of creating and developing new organizational and institutional forms of functioning of the Arctic economy, the formation of trade routes of the XXI century and their innovative and industrial belts both in the direction of «East-West» (the Northern Sea Route, the Great Northern Way) and «North-South» (the Arctic Ocean - Indian Ocean transport corridor).
