| | | The article focuses on the implementation of the state policy of spatial development of Russia in terms of the development of large and the largest urban agglomerations, articulated in the “Spatial Development Strategy of the Russian Federation for the period up to 2025.” In the first part of the article, the theoretical basis of this scientific problem is systematized and analyzed, represented by 16 theories of production placement that were developed during the XIX–XX centuries by scientists from Germany, the USA, the USSR, Sweden, France and Great Britain. The author highlights four modern approaches to the development of agglomerations proposed by foreign researchers in the last two decades. Particular attention is paid to the theory of the “new economic geography” by P. Krugman and the World Bank Report “A New Look at Economic Geography” (2009), which formulates the major recommendations for agglomeration development in the countries with forming markets. The second part of the article analyzes the experience of the USA and the European Union in the allocation of agglomerations, shows the dynamics of their development in 2000–2020, and discusses specificities of the regional policy implementation in the European Union in 2950–2020. The author discusses spatial policy in Germany, specificities of solving the housing question in agglomerations in Western countries in comparison with Russia, and formulates a number of proposals aimed at resolving current problems related to the implementation of the spatial development policy of the Russian Federation. | | Key words: spatial development strategy, spatial development, new economic geography, city, agglomeration, metropolitan area, region, regional policy, individual housing construction | | Pages: 92 - 99 |
