The Kaliningrad Region as a coastal border region of Russia
Abstract
The article studies the sectoral structure of employment and the gross regional product, the similarities and differences of the region from other bordering coastal regions of Russia through the economic and statistical analysis of indicators of population dynamics. The benefits of the coastal and borderline positions are not fully exploited by the region, that is, those types of economic activity and production that could successfully develop are relatively poorly represented here. Conditioned by objective economic laws, inevitable Russian entry into the international division of labor will contribute to the accelerated development of the Kaliningrad region, as well as other bordering coastal regions.
