For the first time since independence, economic planners in India are experiencing a serious crisis of confidence. Although there has always been some debate on alternative policies and programs, the central assumptions of development planning have remained unchallenged since the 1930's. Now, in contrast, the very core of economic development strategy has become the target of open and bitter criticism. The final draft of the Fourth Five Year Plan has been delayed for more than a year, and the end of fundamental disagreements seems nowhere in sight.

The study was targeted at developing a methodology for constructing a macroeconomic performance index at a provincial level for the first time in Vietnam based on 4 groups of measurements: (i) Economic indicators; (ii) oriented economic indicators; (iii) socio-economic indicators; and (iv) economic - social – institutional indicators. Applying the methodology to the 2011 - 2015 empirical data of all provinces in Vietnam, the research shows that the socio-economic development strategy implemented by those provinces did not provide balanced outcomes between growth and social objectives, sustainability and inclusiveness. Many provinces focused on economic growth at the cost of structural change, equality and institutional transformation. In contrast, many provinces were successful in improving equality but not growth. Those facts threaten the long-term development objectives of the provinces.

The main task that determines the effective functioning of the country is the formation of a strategy for its socio-economic development based on a long-term innovation strategy. An innovative development strategy of the country is defined as a fundamental, basic element of the overall strategy of socio-economic development. The purpose of the article is to develop the conceptual foundations for shaping the country's socio-economic development strategy in modern conditions, adjusting the priority directions of the strategy and the peculiarities in using the means of achieving the goals, taking into account European experience. The article examines the European practice of developing and implementing the strategy of socio-economic development of the country as the most important instrument of the state's influence on social and economic development. Recommendations on the use of advanced strategic planning tools are developed. It is proved that without the scientific and methodological support of the plan of socio-economic development of the country it is impossible to count on the successful solution of important tasks and the democratization of public relations. The concept of strategy formation is designed to take into account the interests of economic entities and territory and to cover not only the traditionally used sectoral aspect of development, but also the territorial, which includes the creation and development of clusters and special economic zones. European experience shows that transition of a country to an innovative socially oriented type of development requires an increase in the efficiency of the state strategic planning process, the achievement of which is possible only with the co-ordinated activity of state authorities, business structures, science and society. It should be emphasized that in the prevailing conditions there is a need to form a single integrated system of social and economic development planning that optimally combines both the use of strategic planning and the program-target method for solving urgent problems.

<p>What are the most important factors related to economic development? This paper explores the essential variables necessary for destination development and inward direct investment. These variables include: quality of living, quality of infrastructure, and quality of workforce. Quality of living is considered the most important of these to spur on economic development. Many business operators would rather live where they invest making quality of place an equally important variable that is intrinsically linked to quality of living. Destination development through place-building techniques, informed by the concept of <em>baukultur,</em>is assessed using quality of living, economic development and economic diversification as markers. Quality of living and quality of place are inherently connected when attracting business and growing employment, therefore, these two terms will be referred to as QLP throughout this paper..  Intended to help program and policy planners understand these concepts, this paper will explore cases of successful exercises of destination development that involve recreation and culture-oriented place building. The paper will then look at how to apply learned QLP concepts toward a culture- and recreation-led economic development strategy for the small foothills community of Sundre, Alberta. </p><p><strong>Keywords: </strong>place building, quality of place, quality of living, <em>baukultur</em>, QLP, development, economic development, destination development, inward direct investment, creative class</p>

The complex spatial and economic planning of development of territorial communities on the conditions of their combination which will promote effective management of territories and ensure integrated sustainable development of territories for the future generations is investigated. The peculiarities of the legislation on new provisions of spatial and economic planning of territorial communities are covered, the main approaches to the development of the Comprehensive Spatial Development Plan of the Territory of Territorial Community, the Concept of Integrated Development of the Territorial Community and the Territorial Community Development Strategy are compared. The scheme of connections of elements at formation of the specified Comprehensive Plan, Concept and Strategy is constructed. The legislative level acceptance of the provisions on joint approaches to the formation of key documents of spatial and economic planning of territorial communities, the unity of land management documentation and urban planning documentation at the local level is established. It is shown that the Concept of Integrated Development of the Territorial Community is the basis and a certain “bridge” for combining the principles and indicators in the formation of the Comprehensive Spatial Development Plan of the Territory of Territorial Community and the Territorial Community Development Strategy. The formation of the Concept is proposed to be carried out on the basis of preliminary conceptual and structural modeling of endogenous potential of territorial communities that will establish the features of the existing potential by its elements (natural resources, production and infrastructure, labor, socio-cultural, etc.) that have a place in each community depending on its specific and general characteristics. It is proved that the modeling of the potential of territorial communities is carried out on the basis of establishing, integrating, uniting, combining, interpenetrating of connections and dependencies in the present time and their interpretation (design, transfer) to the appropriate time perspective (five, ten and more years).
