CREATIVE INDUSTRIES IN RUSSIA: TRENDS IN DEVELOPMENT AND GROWTH POTENTIAL
https://doi.org/10.38050/01300105202215
Abstract
In this paper we study the distribution of creative industries in the regions of the Russian Federation, build models of correlation between indicators of creative industries development among themselves, as well as models of correlation between indicators of creative industries development and socio-economic indicators characterizing the development of the regions of Russia. We argue that the distribution of creative industries in Russia’s regions is quite uneven, with a small number of leading regions having the largest number of creative enterprises that provide the largest contribution of creative activities, while in other regions the creative industries are less developed. We present the hypothesis explaining this specific distribution and construct the typology of the regions drawing on the level of creative industries development. To assess the influence of different factors on the degree of development of creative industries we built a number of models that allow to draw conclusions concerning the decisions to be taken at regional and federal levels to provide the conditions for the development of creative industries in Russia’s regions.
