Развитие креативных индустрий рассматривается как одно из направлений структурной трансформации ресурсозависимых и монопрофильных городов, экономическое развитие которых ограничено сложившейся отраслевой специализацией и пространственной удалённостью. Цель исследования – выявить пространственные закономерности новой креативной индустриализации и изучить экономические факторы, влияющие на развитие креативных индустрий в ресурсоориентированных и моногородах, а также в отдельных региональных центрах Дальнего Востока России. Применены методы пространственной панельной эконометрики, глобальный и локальный индексы Морана, тесты множителей Лагранжа, модели SAR, SEM, SDM и GSPRE. Исходные данные сформированы на основе финансовой отчётности предприятий информационноаналитической системы СПАРК за 2013–2022 гг. Выборка включает 26 населённых пунктов (17 моногородов и 9 административных центров), или 260 годовых наблюдений. Модель SDM_fe1 (AIC = 913,0; BIC = 934,4) выявила положительные прямые эффекты динамики ИКТ (0.020) и концентрации основных средств креативных индустрий (1.131). Концентрация заработной платы характеризуется статистически незначимым прямым эффектом (0.215) и значимым отрицательным пространственным эффектом (−2.933). Результаты свидетельствуют о том, что деловой климат в моногородах, позволяющий предприятиям потенциально занижать заработную плату, используя свой статус малых и микропредприятий, становится негативным фактором пространственного развития, проявляясь в снижении темпов роста креативных индустрий в близлежащих моногородах.

The development of creative industries is considered one of the areas of structural transformation of resource‑dependent and single‑industry cities, whose economic development is limited by the existing sectoral specialization and spatial remoteness. The aim of the study is to identify the spatial patterns of new creative industrialization and to examine the economic factors influencing the development of creative industries in resource‑oriented and single‑industry cities, as well as in certain regional centers of the Russian Far East. Methods of spatial panel econometrics, global and local Moran indices, Lagrange multiplier tests, and SAR, SEM, SDM, and GSPRE models were applied. The initial data were compiled based on the financial statements of enterprises from the SPARK information and analytical system for 2013– 2022. The sample includes 26 settlements (17 single‑industry towns and 9 administrative centers), or 260 annual observations. The SDM_fe1 model (AIC = 913.0; BIC = 934.4) revealed positive direct effects of ICT dynamics (0.020) and the concentration of core assets in creative industries (1.131). The concentration of wages is characterized by a statistically insignificant direct effect (0.215) and a significant negative spatial effect (−2.933). The results indicate that the business climate in single‑industry towns, which allows enterprises to potentially understate wages by leveraging their status as small and micro‑enterprises, becomes a negative factor in spatial development, manifesting itself in a decline in the growth rates of creative industries in nearby single‑industry towns.
