Summary / Abstract (Note) | In our article, we discuss development issues in a strategically important Russian territory—Khasanskii Raion (district). We focus on the implementation of infrastructure projects within the framework of establishing the International Transportation Corridor Primor'e-2, and on subjective assessments of modernization in terms of the common good. We conclude that an assessment of the rhetoric and practice of proposed projects reveals a close relationship with other experiences of post-Soviet transformation, showing that modernization itself is largely selective, nonsystemic, and controversial in its social consequences. |
