Abstract

Significant heterogeneity of the level of development of the Russian border, including in the field of recreation, imposes requirements for differentiation in the regional policy. Definition of the types of territories helps to solve applied management tasks more effectively. In this context, the factors by which these types were formed are important. To solve this problem, the authors conducted a factor analysis through the principal component method using oblique factor rotation. Three blocks of variables were analyzed that characterize the subjects of the Russian Federation that have land borders on the mainland (including river and lake borders) and sea borders with neighboring countries located on the map clockwise from Norway to the United States (border regions of Russia) for the period from 2010 to 2018. As a result, five factors were identified: the factor of the demand for the services of the recreational system, the factor of the development of the infrastructure of the recreational system in climatic conditions, the environmental safety factor, the factor of investment in the development of the recreational system infrastructure, the factor of the location at the border. The results of the study can be used as a practical tool for developing recommendations in the field of regional policy aimed at development of a recreational system, taking into account the factors determined for each identified group. The results of the study were obtained in the framework of the state task of the IE KarRC RAS on the topic “Institutions and social inequality in the face of global challenges and regional restrictions”.

Highlights

  • In the spatial development strategy of the Russian Federation for the period until 2025, the territories specializing in the development of tourism and recreation are identified as the regional centers of economic growth

  • The analysis shows that traditional investment motives provide a limited explanation of what attracts or deters Russian acquirers abroad

  • The basis of a recreational system are the subjects of tourism, and the target function is the most complete satisfaction of recreational needs

Summary

Introduction

In the spatial development strategy of the Russian Federation for the period until 2025, the territories specializing in the development of tourism and recreation are identified as the regional centers of economic growth. The conditions in Russia are characterized by imbalances in socio-economic development that manifest themselves to varying degrees, affecting the aspects of the development and formation of economic systems. One of such factors is the bordering position of the region, which has an impact on the regional systems. The high recreational potential of the territory does not guarantee the successful development of tourism and the manifestation of the corresponding positive social and economic effects. Spatial organization of territorial recreational systems is associated with attempts to achieve economic goals, and with environmental and social aspects and compliance with science-based exposure standards. The spatial patterns of the formation of recreational systems in the context of a socio-economic regional space are a relevant applied task
