The article presents the results of an analysis of the possibilities for the transition of the region’s economy to a circular economic model. According to the aim of this article the main economic activities and tools for making such a transition in Kamchatka Territory have been identified. The principles of the circular economy and its advantages over the traditional “linear” model have been analysed. On the example of the Kamchatka Territory, the preconditions and prospects for the region’s transition to a circular economy model in terms of the existing structure of production of goods and services have been analysed. Using MS Excel tools, the structure of the gross regional product has been analysed, according to the results of which the main economic activities that are promising for the transition to a circular model have been identified. Regional indicators for waste recycling and neutralisation have been analysed, and chain coefficients have been calculated for growth in the share of recycled and neutralised waste for Russia as a whole, for the Far Eastern Federal District and Kamchatka Territory. Based on the results of the calculation, it has been concluded that the coefficient values for the Kamchatka Territory lag behind those for the whole of Russia and the Far Eastern Federal District. A number of financial and economic, technological, legal and informational tools have been identified, the use of which makes it possible to implement the transition to a circular economic model. Fisheries, energy, tourism, recycling and waste management have been identified as the most promising economic activities for such a transition. The findings conclude that it is important to continue research into the various aspects of the transition to a circular economy, as well as continued coordinated efforts are needed to implement it.

The circular economy (CE) is a popular concept in the European Union (EU) space, which has been the subject of numerous research and substantiation activities. In the last years, there has been a growing interest in Romania regarding the characteristics of this new economic model and the principles on which it works. Referring to Romanian specialized literature currently available regarding the submitted topic, we consider that the theoretical part is insufficiently structured. In addition, by pointing out the applicability of the circular economy in Romanian space, we consider this to be represented mainly by the fragility of its effective and practical implementation. The examples of Romanian successes in the field of circular economy are limited, a fact that can be explained—from our perspective—through the aspect that in other EU countries, the process of development of CE has some precedents, a stronger background and a ”self-constructed” history in the topic. There is undoubtedly a necessity for adopting this new economic model, considering that, for the most part, Romanian economy is still dependent on the linear economic system. Starting from these arguments, the proposed article uses a thematic debate of the notion of circular economy, presenting, at the beginning, an incursion into the predominantly European variety of theoretical approaches. The selection of definitions and conceptualization is continued with an analysis of the stage of implementation of CE in Romania. The purpose of this approach is to investigate a niche identified in the Romanian space, not covered in the specialized scientific research and to expose the specificity of the process of transition of Romania to a circular economy, of the barriers encountered—namely, the problem related to the attitude and mentality regarding this new concept. We also point out that the intention of the study is to integrate a ”different” contemporary and very current economic concept into a real economy, and at the same time, to increase the visibility of its application at the level of a member country of the EU. The challenges encountered in the context of the increasingly present tendency in Romania of assimilating and complying with the precepts of the circular economy are also detailed, proposing, at the end of the study suggestions for improving the gaps identified at this level. The most realistic implementation of the circular model in Romania represents a qualitative plus for the human-society factor, as well as for the environment. In conclusion, we note that, despite the evolution of the number of theoretical approaches and concerns, the field of circular economy and the perspectives it proposes, continues to offer a favorable ground for further research.

В 2014 г. в Правительстве РФ был разработан новый инструмент развития Дальнего Востока – создание территорий опережающего развития (ТОР). Был принят специальный федеральный закон (ФЗ). К настоящему времени в Дальневосточном федеральном округе во всех субъектах, кроме Магаданской области, определены 20 ТОР, под которые выделяется компактная территория с наличием благоприятных условий социально-экономического развития и ряда крупных инвестиционных проектов, благодаря чему эта территория может стать точкой роста и способствовать развитию района в целом. В статье приводится общая характеристика ТОР Дальнего Востока, обобщены проблемы, проявляющиеся на стадии их создания. Дается детальная характеристика одной из первых ТОР – Надеждинской, формирующейся вблизи Владивостока. Для этой ТОР был разработан План перспективного развития, включающий оценку основных предпосылок и конкурентных преимуществ ее формирования, обоснование приоритетных видов деятельности, обобщенную оценку экономической эффективности и перспектив пространственного развития. В будущем на Дальнем Востоке возможно образование новых ТОР по глубокой переработке природных ресурсов суши и моря на основе новейших инновационных технологий. В ряде случаев целесообразно создание ТОР регионального значения с введением местных преференций, что будет стимулировать местные инициативы. При этом будут использованы имеющиеся благоприятные условия комплексного пространственного развития. In 2014, the Government of the Russian Federation has established a new tool for the development of the Far East by forming a territory of advanced development (TAD). A specific Federal Law (FL) has been passed. Today, 20 TADs have been determined in all federal units of the Far Eastern Federal District, except for Magadan Oblast. TAD is allocated on a compact area with favorable conditions for socio-economic development and a number of large investment projects, stipulating its conversion into a growth point and input to the development of the region as a whole. The article provides a general description of the TADs in the Far East with their schematic maps, generalizes the problems that appear at the stage of their creation. A detailed description of one of the first TAD, Nadezhdinskaya TAD, near Vladivostok is given. A long-term development plan, highlighting and justifying the priority economic activities and resident companies was developed for this TAD under the supervision of the author.

Specifically, in the second phase, the scenario of a municipality that does not have a collection center or classification and utilization station is proposed. The investment in locating, adapting and building a collection center with different sizes is calculated. In the third phase, a scenario is proposed where a municipality already has a collection center, so the investment for its operation is calculated.</p><p>In the fourth phase, the scenarios proposed with the reference value are evaluated.

Circular Model

The shift from a linear model to a circular model can significantly reduce the negative pressures on the environment and contribute to restoring biodiversity and natural capital in Europe. In this view, research and innovation (R&I) play a relevant role in setting the modalities of this transition. Therefore, the European Commission (EC) recently promoted dedicated research activity instruments in this vital area of the economy and in society as a whole. This paper aims to shed light on current public efforts on R&I supporting the transition to the CE (circular economy) model, opening a critical debate on the actual relevance of the CE in current R&I policy with its major research policy schemes in the recent programming periods of 2007–2013 and 2014–2020. Looking at the most significant EC programs sponsoring R&I, it seems that the will to increase the sustainability of the agri-food system and to foster the socio-technical transition towards circularity is evident but not very relevant. The data presented leaves some open questions concerning the effective commitment of European countries to promoting resource efficiency via R&I.

Наиболее важной социально-экономической проблемой, стоящей перед регионами Российской Федерации, является низкий уровень развития производственной и социальной инфраструктуры. Слабое развитие инфраструктуры в Дальневосточном федеральном округе в значительной степени ограничивает возможности эффективного использования богатейшего природно-ресурсного потенциала территории и акватории региона. Наличие же развитой инфраструктуры в регионах предоставляет возможности обеспечения необходимого уровня услуг производственным и конечным потребителям, таким образом, во многом определяя пространственное развитие существующих и перспективных видов экономической деятельности. Под влиянием совокупности экономико-географических факторов на территории Дальневосточного федерального округа сложились два типа социально-экономических (инфраструктурных) зон. Во-первых, широтные зоны: 1) северная – в составе Республики Саха (Якутия), Чукотского автономного округа, Магаданской области, Камчатского края; 2) южная – Приморского и Хабаровского краев, Амурской, Сахалинской областей и Еврейской автономной области; 3) юго-западная – Республики Бурятия и Забайкальского края. Во-вторых, меридиональные: 1) прибрежная (Тихоокеанская) в составе Чукотского автономного округа, Магаданской области, Камчатского, Приморского и Хабаровского краев, Сахалинской области; 2) континентальная – Республики Саха (Якутия), Амурской области и Еврейской автономной области, Республики Бурятия и Забайкальского края. Все зоны отличаются по уровню развития инфраструктурных видов экономической деятельности. При этом наиболее высокий уровень развития инфраструктуры отмечается у субъектов южной широтной и прибрежной меридиональной инфраструктурных зон Дальневосточного федерального округа. Внутри инфраструктурных зон выделяются субъекты округа, которые заметно различаются по обеспеченности услугами производственной и социальной инфраструктуры. Повышение качества и уровня жизни населения возможно, в первую очередь, за счет экономического роста в регионах на основе рационального использования имеющихся в регионах благоприятных факторов, в том числе создания развитой инфраструктурной базы для развития всех видов деятельности. The most important socio-economic problem facing the regions of the Russian Federation is the low level of development of industrial and social infrastructure. To a large extent, poor infrastructure development in the far Eastern Federal district limits the ability to effectively use the rich natural resource potential of the region’s territory and water area. The spatial development of existing and prospective economic activities is also largely determined by the availability of infrastructure facilities in the regions and their ability to provide the necessary level of services to production and end users. Under the influence of a combination of economic and geographical factors, two types of socio-economic (infrastructure) zones have developed on the territory of the far Eastern Federal district. First, the latitudinal zone 1) Northern part of the Republic of Sakha (Yakutia), Chukotka Autonomous district, Magadan region, Kamchatka region; 2) southern Primorsky, Khabarovsk, Amur, Sakhalin regions and Jewish Autonomous region; 3) southwest – the Republic of Buryatia and Zabaykalsky Krai. Secondly, meridional: 1) coastal (Pacific) – as part of the Chukotka Autonomous Okrug, Magadan region, Kamchatka, Primorsky and Khabarovsk territories, Sakhalin region; 2) continental – the Republic of Sakha (Yakutia), the Amur region and the Jewish Autonomous region, the Republic of Buryatia and the TRANS-Baikal territory. All zones differ in the level of development of infrastructure types of economic activity. At the same time, the highest level of infrastructure development is observed in the subjects of the southern latitudinal and coastal meridional infrastructure zones of the far Eastern Federal district. Within the infrastructure zones, the subjects of the district are distinguished, which differ markedly in the provision of industrial and social infrastructure services. Improving the quality and standard of living of the population is possible primarily due to economic growth in the regions, on the basis of rational use of favorable factors available in the regions, including the creation of a developed infrastructure base for the development of all types of activities.

Перспективы социально-экономического развития субъектов Дальневосточного федерального округа (ДФО) связаны с решением ряда проблем, одной из которых является необходимость перехода от преимущественно добывающей («сырьевой») экономики, к обрабатывающей, выпускающей продукцию с высокой долей добавленной стоимости. Для этих целей была разработана и недавно утверждена Национальная Программа развития Дальнего Востока России. Помимо решения социально-экономических проблем, Программа призвана решать и вопросы национальной безопасности, за счет обеспечения устойчивого развития государства, а также субъектов ДФО на долгосрочную перспективу. При этом, отмечается, что экономический рост необходимо обеспечивать, прежде всего, путем развития инновационной системы, модернизации приоритетных видов экономической деятельности и совершенствования межбюджетных отношений. The prospects of socio-economic development of the Far Eastern Federal district (FEFD) are connected with the solution of several problems, one of which is the necessity of transition from a predominantly extractive ("raw") economy and manufacturing, which produces products with high added value. For these purposes, the National Program for the Development of the Russian Far East was developed and recently approved. In addition to solving socio-economic problems, the Program is designed to solve national security issues by ensuring the sustainable development of the state, as well as the subjects of the Far Eastern Federal District for the long term. At the same time, it is noted that economic growth should be ensured primarily through the development of the innovation system, modernization of priority economic activities, and improvement of inter-budgetary relations.

Subject. This article deals with the issues of environmental preferences in the field of functioning of the priority social and economic development areas in the Far Eastern Federal District of Russia. Objectives. The article aims to show the current situation in the formation of priority social and economic development territories on the basis of a brief analysis of the green economy conceptual provisions, taking into account the region's particular nature. Results. The article presents the results of a brief analysis of certain provisions of the concept of green economy from ecological position. It shows that the perspective plans of development of the Far Eastern regions practically ignore the principles of green economy. The article considers the actual situation in the development of priority social and economic development areas in the Khabarovsk Krai. Conclusions. The development of a green economy of regions with a high share of raw materials in the structure of the economy introduces fundamentally new approaches to the formation of a strategy for their development, focused on strengthening the importance of the ecosystem organization of economic activities. At present, the priority social and economic development areas are the basis for solving the government's problems in diversifying the region's economy. The first results of realization of the projects of creation of the priority social and economic development areas in the Khabarovsk Krai allow to note the progress in transformation of the production structure.

The analysis of macroeconomic indicators of the results of solid mineral extraction (TPI) in 11 subjects of the Far Eastern Federal district (DFO) was performed. The total value of production of all types of minerals (DPI) in terms of money at DFO is about 2.4 trillion rubles (45% of total gross regional product (GRP) of the region is equal to 5 trillion rubles.). More than 63% of the volume of DPI is achieved at the expense of fuel and energy resources of the Sakhalin region and the Republic of Sakha (Yakutia). In the dynamics of the region, there is a significant increase in GRP, production and value added for the DPI in general, and the production of fuel and energy minerals, but slower growth in the production of solid minerals. Ore (metal) raw materials of the region’s subjects in its total GRP is about 21%, in value terms-500 billion rubles. The region produces 16-18 types of ore mineral raw materials, including 12 types of raw materials as the main components of production, 4-5 types-as associated components. The main one is gold production (in 2019 more than 170 tons), silver (more than 930 tons). In the Far Eastern Federal district, reserves and resources of the main TPI for the long term have been identified. It is possible to significantly support the mining industry of the region in the case of exploration of new deposits with high-quality ores. Ore mineral raw materials of the leading geological and industrial types are currently insufficiently studied. It is necessary to develop intra-regional use and processing of raw materials to final products, create metallurgical industries, this will give new incentives to the development of the region’s resources. The analysis is of practical importance for evaluating and selecting directions in the deposits of subsurface use.
