В статье рассматривается одна из ключевых проблем, создающих барьеры для обеспечения устойчивого социально-экономического развития регионов и страны в целом, выраженная в наличии существенных межтерриториальных диспропорций, которая является актуальной уже на протяжении длительного периода времени. В связи с этим целью исследования выступили изучение и анализ межрегиональной дифференциации в разрезе наиболее значимых показателей социально-экономического развития. С использованием методов сравнения, статистического и логического анализов в статье проведена рейтинговая оценка субъектов ЦФО РФ по обозначенным индикаторам. На основе анализируемых данных выявлено наличие существенных межтерриториальных дисбалансов, в том числе путем определения соответствующих коэффициентов вариации, осуществлено исследование их уровня и особенностей. Представленные табличные и графические материалы, а также выводы могут быть полезны при разработке эффективных мер на федеральном и региональном уровнях по нивелированию межтерриториальной дифференциации социально-экономического развития. The article examines one of the key problems, which has been relevant for a long period of time, that create barriers to ensuring sustainable socio- economic development of regions and the country as a whole, expressed in the presence of significant inter-territorial imbalances. In this regard, the purpose of the research is to study and to analyze interregional differentiation in the context of the most essential indicators of socio-economic development. Using comparison methods, statistical and logical analyzes, the article investigates a rating assessment of the Russian Central Federal District’s subjects according to the selected indicators and reveals the presence of significant inter-territorial imbalances, including determining the corresponding coefficients of variation, and studying their level and characteristics. The presented tabular and graphic materials, as well as the conclusions can be useful in developing effective measures at the federal and regional levels to reduce the inter-territorial differentiation of socio-economic development.

This article presents the results of a cluster analysis of the regions of the Russian Federation in terms of the main parameters of socio-economic. The major objective of the article is to develop a method for the division of the Russian regions into clusters in order to improve the quality of the policymaking process. The authors studied and analyzed the domestic and foreign (Eurostat) methodology for assessing the socio-economic development of territories. The major results of the study are the determination of the main parameters of territorial differentiation and identification of the key indicators that affect the socio-economic development of Russian regions. The authors have carried out a classification of the constituent entities of the Russian Federation not in terms of territorial location and geographical features, but in terms of the specifics and key parameters of the socio-economic situation into 4 clusters. The results of the cluster analysis allow specifying specific areas, where state control and interference is needed in order to ease the economic and social inequity in Russia and cease social unrest.

The results of the study of the dynamics of some of the main indicators of the standard of living of the population in the federal districts of Russia are presented. The relevance of the article is due to the need to improve the standard of living of the population, reduce the differentiation of socio-economic development of the federal districts of Russia. The purpose of the article is connected with the study and analysis of long-term trends reflecting certain indicators of the standard of living of the population. In the course of the study, the methods of analysis, comparative, regression, and correlation were used. The novelty of the results is determined by the identification of links between indicators and trends that reflect the standard of living of the population and the peculiarities of their inter-regional differentiation. This made it possible to identify groups of federal districts of Russia that have stable patterns of dynamics of indicators of the standard of living of the population. The hypothesis that regions that create large volumes of GRP are able to provide higher living standards of the population has been confirmed, which requires a balance of elements of the functioning of the socio-economic system and a certain perfection of the market mechanism.

The author touched upon topical issues of inter-budget alignment, budget provision of regions with financial resources, focusing on factors that directly affect the stability of the budget system, as well as highlighting problems in the budget sphere that require urgent attention from the authorities. It is concluded that the level of interregional differentiation continues to increase, and the modern mechanism of budget equalization requires urgent amendments and adjustments. It is emphasized that the main goals of socio-economic development of the Russian Federation related to the transition to an innovative type of development, changes in the structure of the national economy, set out in strategic documents and messages of the President of the Russian Federation and declared since 2009, are not being implemented, and the effectiveness of state economic policy and Federal budget expenditures for its implementation remains low. This indicates the need to review the current system.

Abstract Background The most commonly cited argument for imposing or lifting various restrictions in the context of the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic is an assumed impact on the reproductive ratio of the pathogen. It has furthermore been suggested that less-developed countries are particularly affected by this pandemic. Empirical evidence for this is lacking. Methods Based on a dataset covering 170 countries, patterns of empirical 7-d reproductive ratios during the first months of the COVID-19 pandemic were analysed. Time trends and associations with socio-economic development indicators, such as gross domestic product per capita, physicians per population, extreme poverty prevalence and maternal mortality ratio, were analysed in mixed linear regression models using log-transformed reproductive ratios as the dependent variable. Results Reproductive ratios during the early phase of a pandemic exhibited high fluctuations and overall strong declines. Stable estimates were observed only several weeks into the pandemic, with a median reproductive ratio of 0.96 (interquartile range 0.72–1.34) 6 weeks into the analysis period. Unfavourable socio-economic indicators showed consistent associations with higher reproductive ratios, which were elevated by a factor of 1.29 (95% confidence interval 1.15 to 1.46), for example, in the countries in the highest compared with the lowest tertile of extreme poverty prevalence. Conclusions The COVID-19 pandemic has allowed for the first time description of the global patterns of reproductive ratios of a novel pathogen during pandemic spread. The present study reports the first quantitative empirical evidence that COVID-19 net transmissibility remains less controlled in socio-economically disadvantaged countries, even months into the pandemic. This needs to be addressed by the global scientific community as well as international politics.

This article focuses on the analysis of the impact of socio-economic development indicators of Altai region and Oyrot autonomous region on the eve of the Great Purge (1935 — first half of 1937) on the regional intensity of repression. Employing statistical methods (regression analysis), the author verifies the hypothesis that in the areas with the highest level of well-being of the population, the level of repression was also higher. It is established that the turnover and expenditures per capita compared with other economic indicators had the greatest influence on repression levels in Altai and Oyrotia regions. Based on the results of the analysis of regional statistics, the author of the article puts forward a theory that the thesis proclaimed by the Bolsheviks to justify the failure of economic development by the actions of the “enemies” in practice seems untenable, since economically lagging regions were characterised by a relatively low level of repression. In the second part of the article, the author presents a typology of districts of Altai and Oyrotia regions based on the results of cluster analysis of various groups of socio-economic development indicators. Additionally, she substantiates the hypothesis about the influence of the spatial factor on the intensity of repression: the groups of regions of each individual cluster consist mainly of adjacent regions.

The article is devoted to the problems of socio-economic differentiation of municipalities, the excessive manifestation of which forms a threat to the integrity of the socio-economic and territorial space of the region. In order to avoid crisis manifestations of intraregional inequality, it is necessary to constantly monitor the state and trends of socio-economic development of the territories, which will ensure the timely elimination of growing imbalances. To this end, the article proposes a methodological approach to assessing the level of differentiation of socio-economic development of municipalities in the region, which determines the stage of unevenness and analyzes the nature of changes in the processes of interterritorial inequality in the region. The proposed methodology provides for an assessment of the depth and scale of territorial differentiation by individual indicators, which allows us to identify the «pain points» of the socio-economic development of the region. To assess the overall level of socio-economic differentiation, an integral indicator is calculated that reflects the degree of deviation of the main parameters of the municipality from the regional average. Based on the results obtained, the territories are grouped according to the degree of differentiation, which makes it possible to justify the choice of measures and tools of regulatory influence on the development of individual municipalities by regional authorities. The methodology was tested on the example of the municipal districts of the Khabarovsk Territory. The study showed that the territories of the region are characterized by a critical level of the gap in the state of their socio-economic parameters, which is constantly growing. The results of the study can be used in the activities of the executive authorities of the region.

Strategic management is aimed at socio-economic development of region at the effective use of his potential. Questions of development of strategy of increase of stability of regional development and forming of mechanism of its realization are actual. Transformation of the territorial systems, development and acceptance of the administrative decisions aimed at providing of their competitive edges and stability of development must be reasonable mathematical and instrumental methods. In this research the methodical approach to prognostication of basic indicators of steady development of the regional systems and ground of administrative decisions on the increase of stability of development of region are worked out, the integral indexes of stability of socio-economic development of subjects of Russian are built, complex estimation is conducted with the use of econometrics design (systems of simultaneous equalizations). Attained results of research allow using the worked out model for an estimation, comparative analysis and prognostication of the regional systems on the level of stability of their development.


Formulation of the problem. Kharkiv region has recently been increasingly positioned as a "smart region" and Kharkiv as a "smart city". Moreover, the emergence of "smart economy" and the availability of people with jobs is one of the strategic objectives for the city development by 2020. The formation of Kharkiv region as an "intelligent region" with "smart economy" implies, among other objectives, a comprehensive development of innovation and investment activities in the region, its transformation into a Ukraine's leading innovation and investment center. A mandatory condition of the region’s progressive socio-economic development is the economy of innovation type, which is impossible without investment. The purpose of the article is to analyze the innovation and investment potential of Kharkiv region as a factor of its smart transformation, to identify the features of its formation and use in the aspect of the formation of Kharkiv region as a "smart-region". Results. In this paper positioning of Kharkiv region and the city of Kharkiv as a smart region has been defined. The key goals and objectives of development towards a "smart economy", as well as basic factors of becoming "intelligent (smart) economy" are given. The authors analyze innovation and investment potential of Kharkiv region as a factor of its smart transformation; reveal the features of its formation and use in terms of Kharkiv region’s formation as a "smart-region". The place of Kharkiv region in the national dimension was determined according to individual indicators of innovation and investment activity and, in general, according to the innovation and investment potential with the help of the mathematical and statistical analysis. In particular, it is noted that Kharkiv region occupies the 2nd place in Ukraine in terms of the integral indicator of the formation and use of innovation and investment potential yielding only to Kyiv. According to the results of factor analysis, the factors of formation and use of innovation and investment potential of the Kharkiv region (socio-economic, resettlement, housing and trade and socio-demographic), their content (factor loadings) and intraregional peculiarities of influence (factor scales) were substantiated. Using a cluster analysis (Ward’s method, Euclidean distance), grouping of cities and districts of Kharkiv region was conducted based on the similarity of their innovation and investment activities (4 groups of cities and 5 groups of districts were identified). The results of cluster analysis made it possible to conclude that Kharkiv region is characterized by considerable territorial differentiation of the peculiarities of the formation and use of the innovation and investment potential of its administrative and territorial units, which is primarily due to the specifics of their socio-economic development. The undisputed leaders are the city of Kharkiv and Kharkivsky and Dergachivsky counties, which are characterized by the highest investment attractiveness and innovative activity, and in general, the largest innovation and investment po-tential. Thus, clustering allowed defining the features of innovation and investment potential in territorial distribution of the region, identifing problems and outline prospects for further use of the region’s available resources.

The study is devoted to the investigation of the educational determinants as components in shaping the level of socio-economic development of countries around the world, including assessment of the impact of national higher education system development indicators on the determinants of economic development, in particular macroeconomic, innovation, and technology determinants.Based on the grouping of 50 countries, a matrix of relationships between the Universitas 21 index and global competitiveness index was constructed. It is determined that despite the close correlation between the indices as a whole (0.96), there is a certain differentiation of influence in groups. The high impact of education on global competitiveness (0.76) was found in the group of countries with a medium level of competitiveness, moderate impact (0.54) – in the group of highly competitive countries, weak impact (0.38) – in the group of countries with a low level of competitiveness. Based on the correlation-regression analysis, the study proposes a structural-logical graph of the relationship between educational and economic indicators and quantifies it accordingly. The results show that the level of higher education competitiveness is closely correlated with such indicators as the level of global innovation development (0.8 over the period 2012-2020), the level of the knowledge intensity of GDP (0.73), and the level of socio-economic development (0.75). The results will allow changes in education indicators to be taken into account in the context of their impact on economic development and global development strategies.
