Conceptual approach to identifying the centro-periphery of “maritime” transboundary regions

Abstract

The increase in the role of the “maritime” component of the Russian economy and the cross-border regionalization associated with the development of coastal regions are factors in the transformation of central-peripheral relations in Russia and at its borders, which makes the analysis of factors and trends of relevant processes relevant. The purpose of the article in this regard is to conceptualize the center-periphery in the “maritime” transboundary regions, to identify the features of their center-peripheral structuring, and to form approaches to organizing a monitoring system for relevant processes. The subject of research in this regard was the prerequisites and format of transboundary regionalization, their refraction in the conditions of marine transaqual regionogenesis, and approaches to the identification and formation of a monitoring system. The article substantiates the differentiation of transboundary interaction and transboundary regionogenesis, proposes a system of indicators of a “mature” transboundary region, and takes an analysis of the relationship between the central-peripheral status and positions in transboundary interaction. A system of projections of cross-border interaction and cross-border regionalization on cross-border forms of cooperation and a spatial center-peripheral structure is proposed. Features of centro-peripheral structuring of transaqual transboundary regionogenesis were revealed, taking into account the specifics imposed by marine basins. Sections and indicators of the system for monitoring central-peripheral dynamics in “offshore” transboundary regions are proposed. The development of a system for monitoring and modeling the formation of central-peripheral structures of “marine” (aqua) regions is designed to be “integrated” into the system of federal and regional management in order to long-term increase the efficiency of using the marine potential and resources of transaqual regionasilation.
