The paper is devoted to characteristic of new industrial cities as a new type of industrial cities, formed under the new industrialization and digital economy. The authors developed and tested their own methodology for their selection based on the use of available data as well as the nature of the object of the research. The methods, applied for the research are statistical methods and methods for expert evaluation. Twenty-eight Russian cities could be regarded as new industrial ones. Most of them have more than 250,0 thousand people. The results may be used in investigation of new industrial cities from the economics, management, urban planning and others points of view. The presented methodology may be test for others countries except for the Russian Federation.

The article seeks to identify the features of creative industries in Japanese cities with a population over 1 million people. Since there is no universal definition of creative industries in Japan and no officially adopted classification, we analyzed and aggregated various sources of information to develop a classification of creative industries, which takes into account specific features of Japanese culture and traditions. The analysis of creative industries in the largest cities has revealed that the advanced creative industry, i. e. "IT and computer services", is the most developed creative sector in Japan. The most widely spread traditional industries include "crafts and applied arts" and "architecture". For all 12 cities included in the analysis we calculated specialization coefficients, i.e. the ratio of the share of creative organizations and employed in the creative industries in a city to the corresponding shares of the industry in the country, and built petal diagrams for all creative industries. As a result, we have obtained an understanding about creative profiles of all largest Japanese cities. We applied a comparative-geographical method to identify territorial differences in the development of creative industries in Japanese cities, and a cartographic method to reveal the territorial structure of creative industries at the national level. The study has shown that the creative industries are unevenly distributed over the country and the territorial structure of creative industries in Japan is monocentric with hyperconcentration in Tokyo, the "creative hub" of the whole country, which is intended to become a creative center of Asia. Our study revealed that as the city's population decreases, the number of creative organizations and people employed in creative industries is declining quite steadily. The progress of the creative sector is an important component of the "Cool Japan" national policy, which views Japanese traditions and cultural heritage as innovations for economic growth and the development of creative industries. Depending on the number of found creative industries we identified first-, second-, and third-order "creative cores" which have a potential to become creative centers in their regions.

The study of intraregional migration in Russia is complicated by short time series and a limited set of published data, particularly at the municipal level. The publicly available data allow only general evaluation of migration parameters, e. g. the migration turnover, the net migration features, etc. More complete data, for example, on movements between municipalities, could be obtained from the regional statistical offices on special requests. Based on such data on intraregional migration in the Altai Krai in 2014-2018, the hinterlands of the urban okrugs were identified, and some characteristics of those hinterlands were revealed.The migration turnover with ten urban okrugs of the region was calculated for urban and rural settlements of the Altai Krai. A settlement was attributed to the hinterland of a particular urban okrug basing on the maxi-mum migration turnover with it. The hinterlands were delimited in two ways, i.e. with and without considering the capital city of Barnaul. By this we evaluated how the exclusion of migration to/from the regional capital, which dominates the system of intraregional migration links, affects the migration preferences of settlement residents.The results of the study showed that the Barnaul hinterland includes more than half of the Krai's territory with approximately 60% of the region's population. The hinterlands of other cities are proportional to the population of their centers and are also influenced by their location in relation to the regional capital. Without considering Barnaul, several cities, such as Rubtsovsk and Slavgorod considerably expand their influence, while the hinterland of Biysk, the second-largest city in the region, changed only slightly. Despite the importance of the size of cities, the mutual disposition of subcenters and their location in relation to the regional center play a critical role in the intraregional migration. The study gives an idea of principal directions of inter-settlement migration in the Altai Krai.

The article presents the results of the investigation of a system of criteria that reflect economic content of the concept of «single-industry city» and take into account, on the one hand, the change in their role in the system of urban settlement and, on the other hand, the specific conditions and challenges of urban development in emerging markets; the outcomes of the approbation of the criteria identified for assessing the status and trends of the labor market of single-industry cities in Chelyabinsk region of the Russian Federation are presented.

After the proclamation of Ukraine's independence in 1991, local self-government in Ukraine is not regulatedseparately for such administrative-territorial units as cities (exceptions are cities with a special status). Most authorsonly state this fact, but do not make constructive suggestions aimed at improving the situation.The purpose of the article is to consider and analyze the modern laws of Ukraine, which implemented the legalregulation of local self-government in the cities of Ukraine.The study of the laws of Ukraine regulating local self-government gave grounds to note that the peculiarities of localself-government in cities are fragmented in the Law "On Local Self-Government in Ukraine", Electoral Code and arecompletely absent in such important laws-sources of municipal law as Law "On Voluntary Association of TerritorialCommunities", "On the Status of Deputies of Local Councils". Regarding the latest act, the following directionsof amendments aimed at differentiating the status of deputies of local councils of rural and urban settlements areproposed: differences in the rights and responsibilities of deputies of local councils and taking into account differentquantitative composition of local councils (depending on the number of members); accordingly – more or less complexinternal structure of local councils, their executive bodies.It is noted that with the adoption on February 5, 2015 of the Law "On Voluntary Association of TerritorialCommunities" at the present stage of municipal reform began to follow the trend of refusing to unify local governmentin urban and rural areas (in connection with the introduction of the institute of elders). Proposals for amendments toArt. 7 of this Law "Preparation of decisions on voluntary association of territorial communities" and on supplementingArt. 8 "Formation of a united territorial community" paragraph 1-1 in the proposed wording. ; Після проголошення незалежності України в 1991 р. місцеве самоврядування в Україні саме для таких адмі-ністративно-територіальних одиниць, як міста, не регламентується окремо (виключеннями є міста з особливимстатусом). Більшість авторів тільки констатує цей факт, але не висуває конструктивних пропозицій, спрямова-них на покращення ситуації.Метою статті є розглянути й проаналізувати сучасні закони України, в яких здійснено нормативно-правовурегламентацію місцевого самоврядування в містах України.Дослідження законів України, що регламентують місцеве самоврядування, надало підстави зазначити, щоособливості місцевого самоврядування в містах фрагментарно закріплені в Законі «Про місцеве самоврядуван-ня в Україні», Виборчому кодексі й повністю відсутні в таких важливих законах-джерелах муніципального пра-ва, як Закон «Про добровільне об'єднання територіальних громад», «Про статус депутатів місцевих рад». Щодоостаннього акту, запропоновано такі напрями внесення змін, спрямованих на диференціацію статусу депутатівмісцевих рад сільських і міських населених пунктів: наявність відмінностей у правах та обов'язках депутатівмісцевих рад і врахування різного кількісного складу місцевих рад (залежить від кількості членів територіальнихгромад) і, відповідно, більш або менш складної внутрішньої структури місцевих рад, їхніх виконавчих органів.Зазначено, що з прийняттям 5 лютого 2015 р. Закону «Про добровільне об'єднання територіальних громад»на сучасному етапі муніципальної реформи почала простежуватись тенденція щодо відмови від уніфікації місце-вого самоврядування в міських і сільських населених пунктах (у зв'язку з введенням інституту старост). Сфор-мульовано пропозиції щодо внесення змін і доповнень до ст. 7 Закону «Підготовка рішень щодо добровільногооб'єднання територіальних громад» і щодо доповнення ст. 8 «Утворення об'єднаної територіальної громади»пунктом 1-1 у запропонованій редакції.

The article deals with topical issues of the development of small cities in Central Russia. The focus is on the spatial growth of small cities and the factors that determine the process. Examples of the spatial development of expanding and shrinking cities are discussed separately. All spatial growth factors were divided into two large groups, i.e. endogenous and exogenous. In the first case, the principal growth factor is the local population, whose efforts expand the urban space. In the second case, the external forces are of key importance, generally the decisions of higher authorities or the activities of large developers. The spatial expansion is quite logical for the growing cities. Most of them are located in the suburbs of regional centers, resulting in the peculiarities of their development due to construction of new multistorey housing complexes, cottage settlements and townhouse complexes. Interestingly, the spatial growth is characteristic of declining cities as well. Moreover, the factors of their spatial growth are more diverse. Therefore, subgroups were distinguished in each group of factors depending on additional causes and agents of change. The endogenous causes of growth include the construction of new housing for the well-off segments of the population, the construction of new social housing, the construction of new housing for the military and the employees of large industrial enterprises, etc. Administrative incorporations of nearby settlements (villages, station settlements, military towns) and the activities of external developers are among the exogenous factors. The study showed that many small towns expand their space under the influence of various factors, this leads to the complication of their urban structure.

The article is meant to analyze various strategies and models for the development of smart cities, as well as the concept of project financing of smart cities, proposed by Pietro Doran, one of the founding partners of the world's first smart city built from scratch in South Korea — Songdo. The authors believe that Songdo's financing model, based on P. Doran's Project Model can be considered as an effective way to attract investment in greenfield projects for the development of «smart cities» in Russia on the basis of public-private partnership.

More than ten years ago in the world has emerged the concept "smart city" and till today smart cities have developed in many countries of the world.A smart city is a place where traditional networks and services are made more efficient with the use of digital and telecommunication technologies for the benefit of its inhabitants and business [1].Any smart city, in turn, consists of a huge amount of cyber physical systems (CPSs).Cyber physical systems are smart systems that include engineered interacting networks of physical and computational components [2].The essential requirements to functioning of these systems are safety, security, reliability, resilience, confidentiality. Automated decision-making, including profiling in the personal data processing constitutes a significant part of cyber physical systems as components of smart cities.As the personal data is processed automatically, computations are performed in the "cloud" in the network of distant servers, there is a risk of various cyber threats and real cyber attacks on certain cyber physical system (as part of a smart city) which may cause a damage or losses to the personal data subject as a result of unlawful destruction, use, alteration or disclosure of the personal data.The Ukrainian legislation does not contain the concept "smart city". The unsolved problem in the Ukrainian legislation is the recognition of the personal data subject as a central element of any cyber physical system (as part of a smart city) and the necessity of ensuring balance between the fundamental rights and freedoms of the personal data subject and the rights of the data possessors, data processors, data protection officials, the authority of the Commissioner of the Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine on human rights who gain access to the personal data by means of personal data subject consent.The comparative analysis of the Regulation (EU) 2016/679 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 27 April 2016 on the protection of natural persons with regard to the processing of personal data and on the free movement of such data, and repealing Directive 95/46/EC (Regulation) [5] with the Ukrainian Law [4] which refers to various elements of the processing of personal data in different processing systems, to the rights and obligations of the data controller, the data processor, the supervisory authority with regard to ensuring lawful, secure, confidential processing of personal data is made.

Development strategy of the world's largest cities in recent years "turned green" substantially and include as priority the maintenance of the quality of the environment and reduce the risks posed by global climate change. The article analyzes the Sustainable Development Goals of the United Nations (2016-2030) from the standpoint of sustainability and quality of life of communities, primarily in the big cities. Proceeding from these positions the authors consider the relationship and interaction between different Goals, targets and indicators for their implementation. Particular attention is paid to international indices of city prosperity and cities outlook, the global cities index. Constructive methodological and instrumental basis for solving urban problems is the concept of ecosystem services and payments for these services. The largest cities and megalopolises should be prioritized and pioneer objects in the system of payments for ecosystem services or compensation for the loss of the quality of these services, which eventually should become nationwide and provide a sustainable long-run development of the country.
