Download or read book The Russian Far East In Transition written by Mark Valencia and published by Westview Press. This book was released on 1995-06-04 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Russia, and especially the Russian Far East, has reached a political and economic crossroads as the trans-Pacific economic axis - so prominent in the Cold-War era - gradually expands to include broader intra-Asian relationships. Multilateral economic interaction across ideological and political boundaries is creating a "soft" regionalism in Northeast Asia that offers the Russian Far East unprecedented scope for collaboration with its neighbors. Indeed, the contributors - leading scholars and experts from private industry - argue that the future of the Russian Far East will be molded by its economic and political relations with the rest of Northeast Asia. Long known to be a rich storehouse of natural resources, the Russian Far East now faces the challenge of utilizing those resources in a manner that is sustainable and that is empowering to its people. Exploring the opportunities for and obstacles to multilateral ties within the region, the contributors analyze the prospects for economic cooperation in labor supply, minerals and energy resources, transportation, and fisheries.

This book was released on 2003-09-05 with total page 44 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Middle East and North Africa (MENA) is an economically diverse region. Despite undertaking economic reforms in many countries, and having considerable success in avoiding crises and achieving macroeconomic stability, the region’s economic performance in the past 30 years has been below potential.

Download or read book Estimating Potential Growth in the Middle East and Central Asia written by Ms.Pritha Mitra and published by International Monetary Fund. This book was released on 2015-03-20 with total page 27 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Middle East and Central Asia’s economic growth potential is slowing faster than in other emerging and developing regions, dampening hopes for reducing persistent unemployment and improving the region’s generally low living standards. Why? And is it possible to alter this course? This paper addresses these questions by estimating potential growth, examining its supply-side drivers, and assessing which of them could be most effective in raising potential growth. The analysis reveals that the region’s potential growth is expected to slow by 3⁄4 of a percentage point more than the EMDC average over the next five years. The reasons behind this slowdown differ across the region. Lower productivity growth drives the slowdown in the Caucasus and Central Asia and is also weighing on growth across the Middle East (MENAP); while a lower labor contribution to potential growth is the main driver in MENAP. Moving forward, given some natural constraints on labor, total factor productivity growth is key to unlocking the region’s higher growth potential. For oil importers, raising physical capital accumulation through greater investment will also play an important role.

Download or read book Trade Potential and Trade Integration of the Russian Far East written by Kiril Tochkov and published by . This book was released on 2019 with total page 18 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over the past decade, the Russian government has embarked on an ambitious program of economic development in the Russian Far East (RFE), envisioning the transformation of the region into a hub for trade with the Asia Pacific. This paper explores the extent of RFE's trade integration with both key partners around the world and the rest of Russia. In particular, we calculate the region's trade potential on the basis of mean predicted values from a gravity model using three samples that offer different perspectives. Actual trade flows are then evaluated relative to the potential and the resulting index is analyzed for various years and countries. The results suggest that RFE exports to Northeast Asia have intensified over the period 2008-17, allowing the region to surpass its potential, although there is room to grow with respect to China. Moreover, the deepening integration with the Asia Pacific has been achieved at the expense of trade links with the rest of Russia. Lastly, imports from Japan and Korea are shown to be far below potential, although these two countries could be useful in promoting the economic development of RFE.

Book excerpt: This monograph presents an integrated concept of workforce development strategy for the Far Eastern Federal District of Russia. This concept is based on the strategizing methodology developed by Vladimir L. Kvint. The concept takes into account contemporary global, national, and regional development trends in workforce, employment, and labor market issues, including the active influence of information and communication technologies and the appearance of numerous novel forms of employment. The Russian Far East is a region of geostrategic importance for the whole world, rich in minerals that can be extracted provided that the region has the necessary—and correctly applied—workforce. This volume shows the uniqueness of the region’s workforce and factors that impact workforce development. The author identifies strategic factors influencing workforce development, namely, migration, education system, income sources, and business climate. The monograph identifies, with allowance made for global trends, the main components of workforce development strategy for the Far East: mission, vision, strategic advantages, and priorities. The measures proposed are evaluated in terms of public and economic efficiency. The conclusions and proposals in this work are built on the analysis of this wide range of analytical data. Workforce development programs, from the Tsarist era until the present, are analyzed in this work, and creative approaches to the workforce provision problems of the Russian Far East and appraisal criteria for the strategy’s public and economic efficiency are proposed. Applying the information provided in this book will help to improve efficiency of investments in the economy of the Russian Far East using its labor potential. This book belongs to the Strategy of the Russian Far East Library developed under the editorial supervision of Sergey Darkin and Vladimir Kvint.

Download or read book Development of the Russian Far East RFE written by U. S. Military and published by . This book was released on 2018-06-09 with total page 111 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the face of Western sanctions after Russia's invasion of Ukraine, President Putin has shifted the Kremlin's focus toward Asia to stimulate Russia's economic development. To aid in this process, he has prioritized developing the Russian Far East (RFE) by populating the region through multiple incentives, including a federal law granting a hectare of free land to those willing to relocate to the RFE. However, the plan has met several challenges, due to inadequate infrastructure to attract citizens from developed western regions of the country, limited employment opportunities, and a lack of domestic and foreign investment. These problems are closely related to one another and must be resolved simultaneously for development to succeed. Russian policy reforms, better incentives, more favorable immigration policies for foreigners (including neighboring Chinese), and a closer working relationship between the Kremlin and the local administration to decrease corruption will all be needed if Russia is going to have any hopes of deriving meaningful benefits from its pivot to Asia.
