Abstract

The purpose of the article is to determine the problems and perspectives for humanization of transport under the conditions of globalization and integration. Methodological basis of the research includes the method of regression and correlation analysis, which authors use to study dependence between the level of its integration into the global economy and the level of humanization of economic system’s transport by the example of the USA, Germany, China, South Africa, and Russia. The authors determined the following main problems in the sphere of development of transport infrastructure in modern Russia: main attention is paid to the development of only material and technical infrastructure, with determination of general directions only—interested parties are not involved, with participation of just the state and investors. As a result of the research, the authors come to the conclusion that one of the main reasons for ineffectiveness of efforts in the sphere of development of domestic transport system is their fragmentarity, caused by lack of orientation at transport humanization. Perspectives of increase of projects’ effectiveness in the sphere of development of transport infrastructure and increase of international competitiveness of Russian transport system are viewed. For this purpose, the authors have developed the concept of humanization of transport under the conditions of globalization and integration.
