| Summary: | The large-scale development of the Russian Arctic is today combined with problems that have accumulated over the past decades. From the federal and regional levels to that of large corporations and small businesses, the search continues for effective ways of adapting to the complex realities of the region, using new methods of territorial integration and the interaction of industry, science, and education while activating the social sphere. At the legislative level, new territorial formations are being developed—these are called support zones and use existing clusters as powerful nuclei for the future socioeconomic development of the Arctic. Despite the expediency of support zones, their development has been fraught with the bureaucratization of the administrative process, insufficient attention to the lessons of Soviet territorial planning, and weak interaction between regional research centers and their methodological applications.
