Relevance. Monotowns, or single-industry settlements, are pivotal in the economic and social landscapes of former Soviet countries. This systematic literature review explores monotowns, examining their evolution, challenges and implications of these unique urban formations from the 18th century to the present day. The study’s relevance lies in its comprehensive analysis of these towns, which have been significant yet underexplored in academic discourse. Research objective. The objective of this review is to critically examine the multifaceted nature of monotowns, focusing on their socio-economic dynamics, challenges, and potential transformation. The review aims to elucidate the complex interplay of economic, social, and political factors that shape these towns and to identify unexplored areas in this field of study. Data and Methods. To achieve these objectives, the study employs a systematic review protocol comprising four phases: search query, document type, publication stage, and language. This approach involves analyzing a wide range of sources from international and regional databases, ensuring a holistic view of monotowns that captures both historical and contemporary perspectives. Results. Monotowns exhibit considerable resilience amidst economic fluctuations and confront distinct socio-economic challenges, including issues specific to mining monotowns and issues related to public health. The findings underscore the importance of adaptive strategies, corporate social responsibility, and proactive government intervention in addressing these challenges. Conclusion. This review provides a comprehensive exploration of monotowns, contributing valuable insights for future research, particularly in understanding their socio-economic dynamics and the challenges they face. The study is significant for scholars in economic development of the territories and business studies, offering a foundation for further exploration of these unique urban formations.

The purpose of the study is to analyze the state of socio-economic development of the city of Khromtau, the only single-industry town with high potential in the Aktobe region, and use marketing opportunities in further developmentMethodology – general scientifi c research methods, such as analysis, comparison, generalization Uniqueness/ value of the study.Originality / value of the research. It can be used in the development of a roadmap for the development of the region, a comprehensive development plan by socio-economic assessment of the pace of development of the monotown Khromtau.Findings. As a result of the study, based on the results of the study of the socio-economic state of the monotown of Khromtau, it was determined that the economic, social sphere, and infrastructure situation are at an average level. Chromite ore mined and exported to Khromtau is competitive in the world due to its rich ore content and has special properties of the hardest chemical element. Chrome ore makes the city of Khromtau a potential monotown for the coming decades. Nevertheless, the production left over from Soviet times and the level of deterioration of some infrastructure facilities in the city remains high. Despite the largescale work in this direction, in general, there are common problems characteristic of single-industry towns in Kazakhstan. The main goal of the development of single-industry towns should be the creation of new industries, improving the level and quality of life of people. Therefore, it is fi rst necessary to create enterprises as a point of growth, and then develop the infrastructure for revenues from these enterprises to the budget. To do this, it is recommended to form the image of a single-industry town.
