Abstract
Changes in the geography of industrial sectors associated with new industrial construction in Russia in the post-Soviet period are revealed. The features of the territorial structure of modern industry, manifestations of its inertia and dynamism, primitivization and growth of volatility, deepening of specialization and strengthening of the complexity of territorial units are considered. The influence of foreign economic conditions on the spatial structuring of Russian industry has increased. The mining involves in the turnover the deposit of the resources demanded in the world market, and the exploitation of resources for domestic consumption is reduced. Mining of mineral resources is moving to more remote and environmentally sensitive areas with more severe natural conditions. The new manufacturing industry discovers two vectors of primary orientation: the capital and the seaside, primarily to the Baltic, Azov, and Black seas’ coasts. Industrial new buildings are mainly localized outside regional centers, a significant part of them are in small towns. A new phenomenon has appeared on the industrial map of the country–“village industry.”
