Abstract
Border Position as a Factor of Strategic and Territorial Planning in Russian Regions in the Baltic
Highlights
Russia is a part of the VASAB (Vision and Strategy around the Baltic Sea) initiative, which coordinates the spatial planning activities of its 11 member-states and promotes sustainable development of the Baltic Sea region though strengthening its transnational character [28]
For the border regions within the Russian Federation it is necessary to include the recommendations for the development of joint trans-border projects into the guidelines for strategic and territorial planning at the federal, regional and municipal levels
Its qualities should be reflected in the documents regulating strategic and territorial planning of the Russian border areas and their municipalities
Summary
In the conditions of globalization, Russian border regions can form transborder regions through cooperation with the neighbouring territories of other states. The optimisation of spatial organisation of economy, social sphere, and nature management using the tools of spatial planning is fully justified in the case of trans-border regions as well as in that of national ones. In Russia, spatial (strategic and territorial) planning does not imply joint development of documents with the border regions of neighbouring states. The Baltic macroregion has vast experience in developing joint Russia-EU programmes. This experience of coordinating activities in the economic and sociocultural spheres, as well as international spatial planning innovations (German landscape planning, etc.), can be adopted in Russia
