Abstract

The article is devoted to the development of a differentiated approach to assessing the development of single-industry towns. This type of territory, taking into account the dependence on the city-forming enterprise, is most affected by external (crises) and internal factors (the proximity of the territorial system to the center (core) of regional development). The object of the study is single-industry towns of the Republic of Kazakhstan. The purpose of the study is to identify the features of the development of various types of single-industry towns based on their distance from the center (large city). The research hypothesis - proximity to the center (large city) is a significant factor in the development of single-industry towns and it should be taken into account when planning their development. Tasks: to consider the essence and main approaches to the concept of a single-industry city; develop a typology of single-industry towns based on their center-peripheral position; verify the proposed method at single-industry towns of the Republic of Kazakhstan; highlight the peculiarities of the development of various types of single-industry towns; develop practical proposals for the development of single-industry towns of various types. The authors proposed an approach to the distribution of single-industry towns along the center-periphery axis and the isolation of single-industry towns of the near, middle and far periphery.

Key words: Keywords: single-industry towns, typology, socio-economic development, center-periphery
