“…indicate that under the interaction of specialization agglomeration and diversification agglomeration, the impact of industrial agglomeration on urban economic resilience depends on the type of dual industrial agglomeration, showing significant heterogeneity. Gamidullaeva et al (2022) utilized econometric methods based on the extended exogenous growth model to confirm the impact of territorial specialization factors on industrial economic growth. Fritsch and Slavtchev (2008) found that in high-tech industries, there exists an inverted U-shaped relationship between innovation and industrial agglomeration; that is, excessive specialization or diversification will lead to low efficiency of regional innovation.…”

Studies have shown that industrial agglomeration has a facilitating effect on carbon emission reduction. However, discussions on the impact of manufacturing agglomeration on emission reduction have not simultaneously considered spatial correlation and temporal continuity. Addressing this gap, this study develops a dynamic spatial econometric model rooted in agglomeration economic theory to simultaneously assess the spatial and temporal impacts of manufacturing agglomeration on carbon emission reduction. Utilizing panel data from 17 major South Korean regions from 2013 to 2019, the research investigates the internal mechanisms and spatial effects of manufacturing agglomeration on reducing carbon emissions. The findings reveal that the relationship between manufacturing agglomeration (specialization and diversification) and carbon emissions in South Korea shows an inverted U-shape. Moreover, regarding the temporal continuity of carbon emissions, in the short term, specialized agglomeration is beneficial to reduce local and neighboring carbon emissions. In the long run, the effect of specialized agglomeration on the overall carbon emission reduction is still obvious. However, diversified agglomeration can only reduce local carbon emissions in the short term, but the spillover effect on neighboring areas is not obvious. In the long run, diversified agglomeration can effectively reduce local carbon emissions, but the spillover effect on neighboring areas is still not obvious. These nuanced insights are crucial for policymakers aiming to leverage industrial agglomeration for carbon emissions reduction effectively.

“…Сложность решения этой проблемы заключается в том, что решать ее необходимо комплексно, учитывая внутреннее состояние экономики региона [7], факторы инноваций, цифровизации, транспортной инфраструктуры [8] и внешний контекст: экономическую интеграцию, изменения в мировой торговле, демографические изменения, экологические вызовы и транспортную инфраструктуру. Некоторые авторы отмечают особую значимость решения миграционного вопроса для конкурентоспособности приграничного региона, поскольку в условиях низкой рождаемости миграционные перетоки с соседней страной могут служить важным источником пополнения трудовых ресурсов [9].…”

Improving the competitiveness of a border region is a scientific problem connected with the peculiar position of these regions on the front edge of the country, which, on the one hand, puts them in a hard dependence on the current state of relations with the neighboring state, and on the other is determined by special factor conditions created by the border. The purpose of this study is to identify the determinants of the competitiveness of the border region and offer recommendations for improving the sustainability of its economy. To do this, the authors developed a methodology that takes into account the specifics of the boundary position, and tested it on the example of the Samara region — one of the geostrategic regions of the Russian Federation, which has a common border with the Republic of Kazakhstan. In accordance with the logic of competitiveness as a set of characteristics that provide advantages of one object (a border region) over another one (others), the conducted assessment is made on the materials of eleven subjects of the Russian Federation, located along the perimeter of the territory adjacent to the Republic of Kazakhstan. The conducted analysis allowed to identify two priority competitiveness determinants of the Samara region, ahead of influence of other factors — national priority and financial attractiveness, and to form a list of specific factors of the geostrategic potential of the Samara region, showing the possibilities of entering the world market using the resource «border». The recommendations formulated based on the results include the consideration of specific «border» factors and the determinant of regional competitiveness in the process of working out the strategy for the development of the border region. The results of the study are addressed to the state authorities of the Russian subjects — border geostrategic territories and can be used in the development of strategic documents aiming at regional development concerning the analytical substantiation of regional priorities in border trade and economic and socio-cultural cooperation with the neighbouring territory.
