Within the framework of the study, a scientific approach was used, applying both general and special scientific methods, namely the method of systematization, theoretical generalization, and a comparison method using statistical analysis. The article studies the approaches to understanding such categories as space, territory, spatial and territorial development, analyses the spatial development of the Arctic territories as part of the study, allowing to identify further directions for the development of this territory. The applied value of the findings lies in the possibility of organizing a more efficient spatial development of individual territories, which is the key to the country's competitiveness and security in the future.Авторы:, Белоножко М.Л., Белоножко Л.Н.
