Abstract

The multidimensional impact of globalization has greatly changed spatial development around the world. As a result, many territories have fallen behind the leading ones. Contemporary science describes them as “left behind places”. The purpose of this paper is to analyze their theoretical foundations, as well as to identify the main directions of their research. The study made it possible to single out two large groups of factors in the formation of “left behind places”, including the situational and fundamental ones, and to trace the connection with the “geography of discontent”. The multiscale manifestation of “left behind places” is associated with the combined influence of such spatial processes as polarization, metropolization, and peripheralization. The author stresses that “left behind places” are not renamed peripheries, but neo-peripheries of modernity that emerged as a result of various factors. The paper provides a visualization of the “left behind places” use frequency, demonstrating their increasing relevance. Seven main themes of the research are discussed in detail: theory, methodologies of definition and typology; problems of internal (neo-endogenous) development; the relationship of “left behind places” to the rise of political populism and opposition forces; policy measures to solve the issue of “left behind places”; “left behind places” of the Global South; and selected research topics.
