【 摘 要 】

In recent years, the attention of the world community to the Arctic has increased significantly. Moreover, not only the so-called Arctic States, but also countries that do not have direct access to the Arctic territories are showing active interest. What is the reason for such interest? It's simple, the Arctic contains the main reserves of natural gas and oil, which are so necessary for the further development of energy-intensive economies of most countries. The Russian Federation is no exception, the strengthening of sanctions pressure, as well as the processes of globalization create prerequisites for the most effective use of both the Arctic territories themselves and the natural resources they possess. Decrees of the President of the Russian Federation defined the boundaries of the Arctic zone of the Russian Federation and the Strategy of economic security of the Russian Federation and national, are in the active stage of implementation. One of the features of the Russian Arctic territorial systems is that almost all of them are coastal regions. These regions have specific features in the development due to the prevalence of marine economic activity and severe natural and climatic conditions of life. At the same time, regional public authorities, for making objective administrative decisions, are interested in taking into account the designated specific features in the development of subordinate territories. However, the coastal Arctic regions, from the point of view of ensuring economic security, as an object of study, are not currently allocated to a separate category. In this paper, the authors identify specific features in the development of coastal Arctic regions, and propose to use a number of indicators that take into account this specificity.
