Abstract

This article summarizes the authors’ report at the All-Russian Science to Practice Conference, “Russian Economy: on the Way of Structural Transformation,” which took place in Krasnoyarsk on March 1, 2023. It discusses the challenges that Siberian regions are facing in adapting to the new economic and geopolitical situation and explores the possible outlines of a new economic development model. The authors examine changes in transboundary interactions in modern Russia and identify the important role that Siberia plays as the core of the country’s new configuration within the Eurasian economic, scientific, and technological network. The report highlights problematic issues in implementing the so-called “eastern vector” of Russia’s spatial development and concludes that the Strategy for Socio-Economic Development of the Siberian Federal District till 2035 has become a mere formality within an inefficient system of state regulation of spatial development and state regional policy and its institutions. The authors argue that, in the new geopolitical and economic context, the focus of regional strategic planning in Siberia should shift towards problem-oriented program documents, which provide justification and mechanisms to support priority regional investment and innovation projects. These may include programs for reindustrialization, import substitution, and the formation of new regional growth points
