... integration functions of the Russian regions
Since the distribution of quantitative indices (Table 2) for the Russian regions differs from the normal one, the direction and tightness of the paired correlation between them were estimated using the Spearman Rank correlation coefficient. The analysis results identify four pairs of indices with a very tight correlation on the Chaddock’s scale (Table 4). All identified relationships are statistically significant at p < 0.05.

Geopolitical regionalisation of the Baltic area: the essence and historical dynamics

Several levels of regionalisation are distinguished according to the geo-spatial scope of regionalisation. There are two applicable ranking methods: one based on the physical (metric) size of a territory (which identifies macro-, meso-, and micro-regions), and the other based on political features. At the supranational level, macro-regions may be socio-geographical or civilizational,...

The two-party tendency in Poland’s political system: manifestations, causes and prospects

This aspect is closely related to the analysis of the problem of enhancing urban identity and local patriotism, as well as identifying...
