Abstract

The border regions of the Russian Federation play a very important role in the territorial structure of the country, as well as in ensuring its foreign economic relations with neighboring countries. Meanwhile, it is the border regions in our country that have an extreme degree of heterogeneity of economic development and sectoral specialization, an insufficient level of economic diversification and the effectiveness of territorial development. Therefore, the study of the main determinants of economic development of the economies of border regions is of particular importance. These determinants include, in particular, indicators of foreign trade of border regions. Thus, the purpose of this article is to assess the impact of foreign trade on the socio-economic development of border regions. The analysis showed that this influence is insignificant. It can be assumed that attempts to develop foreign economic activity of border regions may lead to an even greater differentiation of territorial development in Russia. This result is very important for adjusting the leveling regional policy of the federal center and developing regional development strategies.
