Региональная торговля на пространстве СНГ: предпосылки для производственной кооперации

     В статье анализируется внутрирегиональная торговля на пространстве СНГ и в рамках Таможенного союза Белоруссии, Казахстана и России. Методологией служит Классификация по широким экономическим категориям (ШЭК), разработанная ООН (1971 г.), и метод Б. Баласса по выявлению конкурентных преимуществ. Авторы приходят к выводу, что у стран СНГ есть экономическая заинтересованность в углублении интеграции на постсоветском пространстве. Региональный рынок СНГ начинает играть все большую роль для производителей полуфабрикатов и готовой продукции из бывших советских республик, хотя динамика развития совокупного экспорта демонстрирует все большую ориентацию на внешние рынки (за счет сырьевых товаров).
     Ключевые слова: СНГ, Таможенный союз, Белоруссия, Казахстан, Россия, международная торговля, интеграция.

Trade in the CIS Region: Conditions for Further Production Cooperation

Irina Gurova*, Maria Efremova

     Authors affiliation: Ulyanovsk State University. * Corresponding author, email: email@domen.ru

     The article deals with the trade in the CIS region and in the Customs Union of Belarus, Kazakhstan and Russia. The methodology of the analysis is based on the UN Classification by Broad Economic Categories (1971) and B. Balassa model for detecting competitive advantages. The authors conclude that the CIS countries are interested in further integration in the post-Soviet area. The regional CIS market plays a greater role for semi-manufactured and final goods producers from the former Soviet republics. But the dynamics of the whole export shows that the CIS economies get more and more oriented on external markets in the sphere of primary goods.
