The Transformation of the Structure of Economic Space of North-West Federal District as a Prerequisite of the New Model of Interaction between Government and Business

In the conditions of Russia the complex of internal factors, including geographic extent and spatial differences determines the specificity of the economy transformation processes and the nature of interaction between government and business. In the context of the theory of evolution, transformation of the spatial organization of the economy could not be managed without a massive redistribution of state resources. During post-Soviet period the structure of the economic space of the North-West macroregion was influenced by the implementation of the foreign economic relations of Russia with the European Union. It determines the impact of transport and energy infrastructure on the processes of transformation and international relations in the macroregion. Objectively existing factor of regionalization of the Russian economy assumes emerging of specific interaction models between state, society and business.
