Аннотация:ABSTRACTThe territories of “New Moscow,” were annexed 1 July 2012,a move that more than doubled the size of the Russian capital.The federal and city governments were supposed to move toNew Moscow, which was meant to be in the avant-garde oftwenty-first century urban design. However, soon NewMoscow’s role was reduced to helping to make GreaterMoscow more “livable” and channeling growth to the southwest.The present study sketches the historical backgroundand current context of New Moscow, identifies the main factorsshaping the pattern of growth, and provides an empirically-based investigation of current trajectories of change “onthe ground;” i.e. with respect to population distribution, housing,commuting, land use, and the environment. The goals ofthis paper are to assess the extent to which directed suburbanizationin New Moscow represents a radical departure fromthe past and to gauge its contribution to the effort to make theMoscow agglomeration more livable.
