Abstract

Currently, there is a shift in the focus of socio-economic development from the macro level to the sectoral and regional levels. The need to study the trends and conditions of regional development, including the study of the features of the agglomeration effect, is of particular importance. Systematization of scientific ideas about the methodological aspects of the functioning and development of territorial entities is necessary, first of all, to justify decisions on the spatial distribution of productive forces in the context of the state, industry, region. The analysis of approaches to the definition of the content and essence of the concepts “territory”, “space” and “region” showed that these categories are closely interrelated with each other, but do not reflect all the modern requirements and features of regional development. Therefore, the authors justify the need to use the concept of “regional spatial system”, which allows for a deeper study of the synergistic features of the agglomeration effect within a specific territory. The study of the agglomeration effect in the Federal districts of the Russian Federation revealed a steady trend of growth in the urban population due to a reduction in the rural population. At the same time, there is a positive dynamics of the increase in large cities against the background of a decrease in medium and small cities. This circumstance can be considered as an actual manifestation of the agglomeration effect, which has both positive (from the point of view of the growth of productive forces) and negative sides (from the point of view of economic security). It is concluded that in order to solve the strategic tasks of effective and safe development of modern regional spatial systems, it is necessary not only quantitative growth (through further agglomeration), but also qualitative integration of all organizational, technical and socio-economic components of the system.
