Abstract
The paper studies the spatial proportions of Russian development and their change since the beginning of the XXI century. Several indicators of economic activity are used: population, employment, fixed assets and GRP. Several directions of transformation are considered: West-East, "center" - "periphery", regions of mining and processing specialization. The methods of research are the Theil index and estimates of regression equations. The analysis showed that there is a movement of economic activity from East to West, from the "periphery" to the "center" and from resource to manufacturing regions, the combination of these processes leads to higher concentration and growth of interregional differences in the country. Spatial changes in modern Russia are influenced by factors of market and agglomeration nature, such as the capacity and availability of markets, the presence of large cities, acting as centers of development.
