“…Socio-economic infrastructure, people, and authorities on either side of a border are engaged in more or less active collaborations. Researchers have identified various spatial forms of сross-border cooperation: euroregions, associations of local authorities and regions, large regions, growth triangles, arches, development corridors, mega-corridors, cross-border corridors and bridges, cross-border districts and clusters, bipolar and tripolar cross-border systems, and cross-border cities (Association 2004;Druzhinin 2017;Kaledin at al. 2008;Kivikari 2001;Klemeshev at al.…”

The problems of the formation of international regions on the borders of Russian Federation and EU countries after the deterioration of relations between them in 2014 became more complicated due to the reduction of mutual economic, social, political and other cross-border ties. However, such links remain, especially at the local level, as both sides benefit from them. Polish and Russian authors are trying to find common approaches in assessing the situation and explaining the need in the development of relations between cities, territories and businesses located on both sides of the border, which contributes to the formation of cross-border regions. The authors use literature, materials of cross-border cooperation programs and their own research experience, identifying factors and features of cross-border interactions at the Russian-Polish border. The article presents a SWOT analysis of the formation of the Russian-Polish cross-border region – a comparison, on the one hand, of strengths and weaknesses, and on the other, opportunities and threats to its development. It is shown that in 2014–2019 political factors prevailed over socio-economic ones, which negatively affected the development of the regions along the border. Nevertheless, in 2018 the implementation of joint projects within the framework of the Russia-Poland cross-border cooperation program co-financed by the EU and both countries continued. Although the number of mutual crossings of the border has decreased, it remains quite important. In Kaliningrad, there is a Polish visa center that promptly issues Schengen visas, free of charge for scientists and teachers, students and some other categories of the population. In the summer 2019, free electronic visas were established in Kaliningrad region, which increased the influx of tourists, including Polish. The authors hope that the objective laws of the world market will lead to the intensification of mutual relations and the formation of the Russian-Polish cross-border region, which would contribute to increasing the international competitiveness of its parts on both sides of the border.

“…The explosive development of the port economy in Russia manifested itself not only in an increase in the turnover of seaports (8 times over the period , but also in the general restructuring of the Russian economic space. The new balance of interaction between inland and coastal territories was also reflected in the change in the vast areas of influence of large seaports (hinterlands), which included the leading export-oriented regions of Siberia (Dets, 2017;Druzhinin, 2017).…”

“…Numerous studies have considered individual aspects of the socio-economic and innovative development of urban settlements in the Leningrad region of Russia and the city of St. Petersburg as coastal areas with metropolitan status (Druzhinin et al, 2017;Druzhinin et al, 2018;Kuznetsov et al, 2017;Lachininskii and Semenova, 2015). In particular, it is noted that the Leningrad region is one of the few regions of Russia with a prolonged and large-scale impact of the marine factor on the settlement system.…”

Coastal regions are generally conceived as highly advanced in terms of socioeconomic and innovative development. Acting as international contact zones, coastal agglomerations are described as gateways for absorbing new knowledge, technologies, business cultures, etc. Yet, this perception is based on studies of large coastal cities and agglomerations. In our study, we focus on coastalization effects manifested in rural settlements and evaluate the innovation capability of the economies of coastal rural areas. The research scope covers 13 municipalities of the Leningrad region, including 134 rural settlements. The research methodology is structured into three main blocks: the evaluation of the human capital, assessment of the favorability of the entrepreneurial environment, and analysis of susceptibility of local economies to innovations. The list of analyzed innovation dynamics parameters includes the geospatial data for the distribution of population, companies and individual entrepreneurs, localization of specialized support and innovation infrastructure, sectoral analysis of the economic structure, digitalization aspects, et cetera. The data coverage period is 2010–2019 with variations depending on the availability of individual indicators. The research findings reveal particular features of the countryside as compared to urban settlements. Strong asymmetries are observed between the development of rural settlements cross-influenced by coastalization, near-metropolitan location, and national border proximity.
