Abstract

This article deals with some theoretical and methodological aspects of the study of trends and patterns of pro-spatial development of infrastructure of rural areas. The object of the research is rural areas of the Russian Federation. The subject of the research is the methods of scientific knowledge used in the process of studying the spatial development of infrastructure of rural territories. The aim of the research is to generalize theoretical and methodological provisions of the study of spatial development of infrastructure in rural areas of Russia for justification of adaptive solutions in the new reality. Methods of research of spatial economic systems, dialectical and empirical methods of knowledge were used as methodological bases. In the course of the research the postulates of the theory of spatial and regional economics were generalized, and also the stages of evolution of theoretical views of the leading figures of science about the purposes and tasks of development of rural territories, such as socio-economic, sustainable, spatial and spatial-branch development were systematized. The article considers reproductive, functional and spatial-branch approaches to the study of rural infrastructure and presents their classification. The main conceptual approaches to the development of rural infrastructure have been studied. The interpretation of the definition "infrastructure of rural areas" that reflects the role of rural infrastructure in reproduction processes, its spatial aspect and significance in the development of inter-branch and inter-territorial interaction was clarified. The considered theoretical and methodological aspects of the study of rural infrastructure in the context of spatial development allow improving the tools and methods of management with the development of appropriate adaptive mechanisms to the conditions of the new reality. The article is addressed to the scientific community and practitioners of regional and municipal management
