Gerasimenko T.I., Semenov E.A. ECONOMIC-GEOGRAPHICAL AND GEOPOLITICAL POSITION AS INTEGRAL SPATIAL CATEGORYThe role of economic-geographical and geopolitical position in the development of territories is extremely high; it is not a coincidence that there exists the term "pressure of location" or "positional pressure", introduced by B.B. Rodomanov. The positional principle lies as a fundamental one in geography. Properties of economic-geographical and geopolitical position as the important integral spatial category, their peculiarities allow estimating the location of a particular region or a country in the geo-economic and geopolitical space. EGP and GPP are not only important categories; they underlie some central teachings of the economic and geographical science. Classical scholars of Russian economic geography — N.N. Baransky, V.V. Pokshishevsky, I.M. Maergoiz — developed the foundations of the doctrine of EGP and methods of its evaluation. The doctrine was further developed in the works of contemporary authors, being reflected in the submitted article. Considering these categories is necessary when creating strategies for socio-economic development of territories and territorial planning schemes, as well as the choice of geopolitical and geo-economic preferences. In addition to such important elements of EGP as transport and geographical, industrial and geographical, recreational and geographical, geo-demographic and other characteristics, such new features as financial and geographical, innovative and geographical, agglomerative and geographical position take on special significance in terms of modern post-industrial economy, the rise of globalization and integration, modernization and diffusion of innovations, economic space compression, increasing importance of institutional factors and mobility production. The main properties of geographic location are, first of all, its historic character. It is subject to the dynamics under the influence of various factors. Secondly, it is potential (probabilistic) nature of EGP, which gives opportunities for development, but does not predetermine it. Thirdly, the remote nature of EGP optimizes logistics schemes. The influence on the EGP and GLP on territorial structure, the nature and direction of the external socio-economic relations in the region is great.Key words: economic, geographical and geopolitical location.
