Этот номер журнала «Муниципалитет: экономика и управление» необычный. Во-первых, он юбилейный, 55-й по счету, а это ко многому обязывает. Во-вторых, он тематический, сконцентрированный главным образом на вопросах муниципальной и региональной экономики, которые отражают и научную специализацию журнала, и его муниципальный профиль. В-третьих, он подготовлен с участием приглашенного редактора – директора Школы экономики и менеджмента, заведующего кафедрой теории, методологии и правового обеспечения Школы государственного управления и предпринимательства Института экономики и управления Уральского федерального университета, доктора экономических наук, профессора Ирины Дмитриевны Тургель. Именно она определила основной контент номера и его направленность. Но профессор Тургель не просто приглашенный редактор. Ирина Дмитриевна – основательница «Муниципалитета», его первый главный редактор, идеолог, лоббист и просто добрый друг нашей редакции. В-четвертых, номер отличает нестандартный формат рубрики «Слово редактора», составленной в этот раз в форме интервью с профессором И. Д. Тургель. Наш разговор – о XX Международной конференции «Российские регионы в фокусе перемен», состоявшейся в ноябре 2025 г. в стенах Уральского федерального университета имени первого президента России Б. Н. Ельцина (УрФУ). 

Introduction. The relevance of the work is dictated by the role of creative industries as drivers of territorial development, especially in the context of the «creative reindustrialization» of such macro-regions as the Ural Federal Okrug. Despite its significant potential, the district's film industry is characterized by high spatial heterogeneity and a lack of systematic economic analysis at the city level. The scientific novelty of the work lies in the fact that for the first time a comprehensive spatial and economic analysis of the district's film industry at the city level has been proposed: survival rates have been calculated and a financial ranking of leaders has been conducted, empirically confirming the hyper-concentration of creative capital and resources. The purpose of the research is a comprehensive spatial and economic analysis of the current state of the film industry in the Ural Federal Okrug basing on a continuous sample of cities.

Materials and methods. The empirical basis of the study was made up of microdata on the financial and economic activities of 507 organizations and individual entrepreneurs registered in six subjects of the Ural Federal Okrug in the period from 1991 to 2026. Information was collected through aggregators that accumulate data from the Federal Tax Service and Rosstat on specialized types of activities (OKVED 59.11–59.14). The methodology is based on a combination of spatial analysis (geocoding of legal addresses) and financial and economic profiling. The paper uses methods of descriptive statistics, calculation of survival rates and multidimensional ranking of market leaders in terms of revenue, profit and capital.

Results and conclusions. It has been established that the Ural Federal Okrug film industry market (507 organizations) is characterized by an extremely tough competitive environment: the liquidation rate reaches 48%. The total revenue exceeds 5.4 billion rubles and is unevenly distributed: hyper-concentration of creative capital has been revealed in three cores – Yekaterinburg, Chelyabinsk and Tyumen, accumulating more than 85% of the district's revenue. The Sverdlovsk Region is the leader in the number of organizations (45% of the market), while the Chelyabinsk Region is the leader in net profit due to the monopolization of the film screening segment. The highest business sustainability was recorded in the Tyumen Region (60.9%), which confirms the effectiveness of regional support programs. A special result was the allocation of the «northern model» (KhMAO): niche B2B production studios demonstrate profitability of over 40%.

Discussion. The results confirm the theory of the concentration of creative resources in the largest agglomerations and the risk of degradation of peripheral territories. Basing on empirical data, two stable regional models have been identified: the Tyumen incubator, which ensures record business survival, and the Northern Way (Khanty-Mansi Autonomous Okrug, Yamalo-Nenets Autonomous Okrug), where the film industry is transformed into a high-tech B2B service for raw materials corporations. The dominance of the screening segment over film production creates the risk of the macro-region becoming a «consumer colony» with a shortage of local symbolic capital. The practical significance of the work is to substantiate the need for a transition from the transit economy of distribution to the creation of cluster mechanisms for a full production cycle.

Purpose. Identification and description of stages of territorial planning system formation of municipal development in Russia in the Soviet and modern periods. Methods. Genetic techniques, logical, systematic and comparative analysis are used in the study. Empirical base of the study was the complex of normative-legal acts in the field of spatial planning and urban development in Russia in the Soviet and post-Soviet periods Results and practical significance. The paper reveals the stages of territorial planning system formation in the Rus-sian Federation taking into account the state of the real estate market and the key parameters of the existing models of legal regulation. Special attention is paid to the analysis of the territorial planning urban development in the system of strategic planning of the country socio-economic development. The obtained results can be implemented in the process of manage-ment decisions and used for improving territorial planning of urban development in Russia and other post-soviet countries. Scientific novelty. The specificity of interaction of state government and local self-government at different stages of system of urban development planning is revealed. The role and the place of spatial planning in the emerging system of strategic planning of socio-economic development is described. The problem of improving the territorial planning of urban development in the short and long term is discussed.

Purpose. To identify the stages Krasnoturinsk development in the post-Soviet period based on an assessment of the towns' population change dynamics. Methods. The study used quantitative methods of economic and statistical analysis and qualitative methods of genetic and comparative analysis. Results and practical significance. The paper presents a comparative analysis of population change between 1992 and 2014 of monocities of the Sverdlovsk region Krasnoturinsk and Severouralsk with the regional index. The authors identify the main stages of development of the urban district Krasnoturinsk and give them a brief description. Obtained results will be needed in the formation of management decisions and justification of recommendations for further development of monocities of the Northern Administrative District of Sverdlovsk region. Scientific novelty. The paper studies the relationship between population change of the monocity in the post-Sovet period and stages of development of the industrial city-forming enterprise.

Objective. Identification and qualitative assessment of dynamics of development data of inter-municipal cooperation on the all-Russian level. Methods. The research is based on the methods of an economic-statistical analysis (average and relative quantities, social-economic dynamics analysis, and degree of “presence”). Results and practical importance. The author identification of trends characterizing participation of the RF municipal entities in various forms of inter-municipal cooperation, including: inter-municipal entities, inter-municipal commercial and non-commercial organizations. The author makes a comparison of the data of municipal cooperation development on the all-Russian level and the level of the federal districts. The obtained results can be used practically for substantiation of the offers concerning the administrative barriers removal for development of inter-municipal cooperation in the RF. Scientific novelty. Dependence between the type of a municipal entity and the activity rate of its participation in various forms of inter-municipal cooperation has been determined. Spatial specificity of inter-municipal cooperation extension in view of federal districts has been revealed. Absence of direct dependence between the level of economic development of the RF subject and the participation degree of its municipalities in inter-municipal commercial organizations has been substantiated.
