Abstract: After entering the 21st century, the Russian Far East energy began recovery and its main macroeconomic indexes went up quickly, but some structural proportion turned for the worse. Through a comprehensive assessment of the economic returns, growth patterns and manpower of the Far East’s federal bodies, we found out that the social and economic development of the north and south of the Far East began polarity. The federal bodies in the north which were the main raw material produced areas took the lead in economic structure. An analysis proved that the Far East’s acceleration development based on the high-effi ciency and creatively-mining projects was workable. Meanwhile, a price factor, ie. market quotations of foreign economy, played a key role. The second direction of
the Far East’s acceleration development was taking the processing transformation to substantiate resource mining industry. In the respect of communications, the construction of the second branch of the Baikal-Amur mainline (BAM) was put in the first place. However, the Far East’s investment projects in an all-round way made labor resource problem even more acute. The Far East’s economic acceleration development will depend on economic cooperation with its neighboring countries such as China, Japan and the two countries of the Korean Peninsula above all else.
Key words: Russia; Far East; northeast part of China; cooperation in Northeast Asia
