Current Condition and Prospects of the Spatial Development of the Northern Areas of The Krasnoyarsk Territory

Abstract

The article studies the peculiarities of spatial peculiarities of the northern areas of the Krasnoyarsk Territory, using three approaches: latitudinal (north-south), longitudinal (west-east) and the development type (intensive, extensive or nature preserving). Each of the approaches characterizes certain aspects of the regional policy aimed at the northern territories. The analysis reveals the main tendencies and trends in the prospective development of the northern areas, and facilitates formulation of the issues that require a regulatory-legal and organizational-administerial consideration. It is concluded that there is a need for a differentiated regional policy concerning separate zones of the northern territories and also on expediency of consideration of the northern macroregion as an independent strategic planning subject at the regional level
