Abstract

Spatial socio-economic and ekistical differentiation of the Russian regions will never lose its relevance due to their vast territories, significant differences in settlement systems, and socio-economic activities of their entities. The differences are clearly manifested in the border areas. A feature of the Belgorod, Voronezh, Kursk regions is their border position with the Ukraine, which has left noticeable imprints on the population of border areas and a number of socio-economic indicators. Therefore, the main goal of this paper is to establish and assess the socio-economic and ekistical spatial differentiation of the border areas of the Central Black Earth Region in the conditions of attractiveness of regional metropolises. To achieve the stated goal it is needed to identify and analyse the impact of regional metropolises on the polarization of socio-economic regional development as well as to determine trends in the development of socio-economic systems of the Central Black Earth Region. The assigned set tasks have been achieved with the use of methods of spatial-temporal, system, and statistical analysis as well as geoformation mapping (ArcGIS) and the results of expeditions in 2018–2020. The study has established that the high attractiveness of regional metropolises predetermined spatial polarization in the socio-economic development of regions and regional settlement systems of the territories bordering Ukraine in the Central Black Earth Region and that both the border areas themselves, except for the Belgorod one, and most territories of the Central Black Earth regions are located in the area of active depopulation and low population density. It is concluded that the laws of urbanization processes development and the coronavirus pandemic will strengthen settlement deconcentration, the growth of classical and structural suburbanization.
