The Soviet settlement system--current issues and future prospects.

"A survey of current urban issues and trends in the Soviet Union sets the stage for an analysis of the problems of the urban system of the USSR and discussion of recent efforts at planning and policy development for a national settlement system. The General Scheme of Settlement, issued in 1975 and revised in 1982 to guide the development of such a national system, is examined as is the ensuing debate between two opposing schools of thought as to the best approach for restructuring the urban system."

Population distribution problems and policies in Asia.

"The main purposes of this paper are (1) to identify the primary population distribution problems in Asia, and (2) to identify the range of explicit population policy instruments or packages designed to alleviate or solve existing maldistribution. As a corollary to these main goals, attempts are made to classify types of spatial population problems and policies and to compare them across nations. Additionally, a qualitative analysis is made to assess the effectiveness of population distribution policies in those cases where there are reasonable data available."
