Purpose of the study. The possibilities for the implementation of national and regional strategic objectives depend on the compliance of the measures taken with the chosen development path. The set of measures includes managerial decisions in the field of labor market regulation and concerning the legalization of informal employment. To make managerial decisions on the regulation of the labor market at the regional level, an objective statistical assessment of the relationship between informal employment and indicators of socio-economic development is required.The information basis for the regulation of informal employment should be quantitatively assessed stable regularities of the relationship between the parameters of informal employment and the structural and dynamic characteristics of economic growth and development. To identify and evaluate these statistical patterns, based on data from the Federal State Statistics Service in a regional context, a system of statistical indicators has been developed and significant factors of informal employment and socio-economic development have been identified. Given the heterogeneity of the constituent entities of the Russian Federation in terms of the scale and structure of informal employment, the distribution of regions into homogeneous groups is required. The article describes the approaches to the classification of Russian regions, taking into account the level of socio-economic development and the structure of informal employment.Materials and methods. The article examines an approach to the distribution of regions into homogeneous groups using the methods of cluster analysis based on a group of indicators characterizing those employed in the informal sector, which is based on the assumption that the indicators of informal employment are causally related to indicators of socio-economic development.Results. Five groups of regions are obtained, homogeneous in terms of the structural characteristics of informal employment and generalized factors of socio-economic development. For the purposes of further interpretation, the selected groups are assessed and ranked relative to the average Russian level of socio-economic development: low level (8 regions), below average (26 regions), average (41 regions), above average (8 regions), high level (2 regions) ...Conclusion. The resulting classification of Russian regions is a transitional stage to the construction of an econometric model of the relationship between informal employment and indicators of socio-economic development. Further analysis will allow us to assess which indicators have the greatest multiplier effect on the regional economy and to obtain a quantitative assessment of this impact on its growth.

Socio Economic Development

The aim of the study, the results of which are presented in this article, was to study the socio-economic asymmetry of Russian regions. The relevance of the research topic lies in the fact that regional asymmetry in the system of socio-economic relations is considered as one of the main threats to the regional development of Russia. At the level of the federal state and its regions, certain territorial differences in the use of their resource potential can be traced, which leads to significant interregional and intraregional asymmetries in the levels of socio-economic development of territories. Among the priorities for minimizing the manifestations of regional development risks in modern conditions is the introduction of a new regional economic policy, the basis of which should be recognized the formation and activation of “growth points” and using effective tools that can reveal the potential of regions for creating the “multiplier effect” in the socio-economic development at the interregional level. Analyzing socio-economic indicators, the author was able to identify a general positive trend in the increase of the average monthly nominal wages, the volume of tax revenues, fees and other obligatory payments to the regional budgets, as well as the turnover of trade and the volume of paid services to the population in the previous year. The author proposes a refined concept of “asymmetry”, studies the causes and consequences of asymmetry in the socio-economic development of regions, and determines the indicators characterizing the inequality of regional development. The article provides a comparative analysis of the socio-economic development of individual regions of the Central Federal District; it gives recommendations for leveling the socio-economic development of Russian regions, which will allow the Government of the Russian Federation to reduce in the future the lag of economically less developed regions from more developed ones. These recommendations are: development of transport infrastructure, increasing the electricity and gasification of areas remote from the center of the country rich in minerals, a significant increase in the housing stock, through preferential mortgage lending with government support and in the development of agglomerations, calling in them, mainly, the Russian-speaking population from neighboring countries, by issuing passports and citizenship in a simplified procedure.

The article deals with the problem of the influence of the level of socio-economic development of Russian regions on demographic and migration processes. The relationship between economic indicators, the total population growth in the regions and its components-natural and migration growth during 2000-2017 are analyzed. The authors reveals the relationship between the dynamics of the gross regional product (GRP) and the population of the regions, as well as the factors that determine these processes. For the purposes of the study, a sample of “typical” regions was formed. In the process of its formation, national autonomies and remote territories with a more severe climate were excluded from the total number of subjects of the Russian Federation, where the development of demographic and migration processes may be determined by "atypical" factors for other regions of the Russian Federation (national-cultural, climatic, etc.). The article analyzes the causes of internal migration and features of socio-demographic development of subjects of the Russian Federation. The role of the Moscow region as an object of migration attraction is investigated, and the factors that deter and stimulate internal migration are considered. The official data of the Federal state statistics service for 2000-2017 were used as an information base for the study.

The review outlines the connection between E. Reinert’s book and the tradition of structural analysis. The latter allows for the heterogeneity of industries and sectors of the economy, as well as for the effects of increasing and decreasing returns. Unlike the static theory of international trade inherited from the Ricardian analysis of comparative advantage, this approach helps identify the relationship between trade, production, income and population growth. Reinert rehabilitates the “other canon” of economic theory associated with the mercantilist tradition, F. Liszt and the German historical school, as well as a reconside ration of A. Marshall’s analysis of increasing returns. Empirical illustrations given in the book reveal clear parallels with the path of Russian socio-economic development in the last twenty years.

Typologization of rural areas, taking into account differences in population density and level of socio-economic development, is necessary to identify “growth points” and strategic sustainability benchmarks. The method of integrated assessment of the level of socio-economic development of rural territories is proposed, according to which the grouping of Russian regions is carried out. Applying data on rural population density to the results of calculations allowed us to identify 12 typological groups, in the context of which unified recommendations on sustainable development of territories should be formed.

Most research that has examined the international variation in homicide levels has focused on structural variables, with the suggestion that socio-economic development operates as a cure for violence. In Latin America, development has occurred, but high homicide levels remain, suggesting the involvement of other influencing factors. We posit that government effectiveness and corruption control may contribute to explaining the variation in homicide levels, and in particular in the Latin America region. Our results show that social and economic structural variables are useful but are not conclusive in explaining the variation in homicide levels and that the relationship between homicide, government effectiveness, and corruption control was significant and highly pronounced for countries in the Latin American region. The findings highlight the importance of supporting institutions in improving their effectiveness in Latin America so that reductions in homicide (and improvements in citizen security in general) can be achieved.

Subject. The modern economic development strongly depend on a powerful regulator, such as grand challenges, which have become a critical barrier, requirement, level that should be attained. Considering the grand challenges, the country set up goals and tasks for the coming period and adjusts operations of economic agents. Therefore, it is necessary to assess the gap between the absolute and current market potential with reference to qualitative and quantitative indicators. The study is called to assess whether Russia is prepared for the existing and arising grand challenges. We also determine risk mitigation methods and the probability of negative scenarios. Objectives. We determine and evaluate the level of socio-economic risks for Russia to respond to the grand challenges. We also pinpoint key directions for the Russian regions to continue their socio-economic development in order to promote their further economic growth. Methods. The study presents the economic-mathematical modeling of the nexus among factors that determine socio-economic risks of the GRP dynamics to find their mitigation methods. In the study, the logit-model with dummy variables that attribute the regions to certain clusters. Results. We analyzed and classified risks of the Russian regions by 10 integral indicators. The article shows homogeneous regional zones exposed to similar socio-economic development risks. We also carry out the multivariate classification of the Russian regions by the risks assessed. As the findings show, the Russian regions strongly differ by socio-economic risks. The article spotlights priorities of the socio-economic development of the constituent entities of the Russian Federation. Conclusions and Relevance. As their key development vector, the Russian regions need to overcome the technological gap, mitigate the S&T potential risk and a drop in the innovative activity of the economy.
