The article is devoted to analysis of the specifics involved in implementing the State Strategy for Regional Development in Ukraine, and monitoring of its implementation. Methodological, organizational and economic recommendations on improvements of the regional development strategy formulation in the context of decentralization and the increasing importance of territorial and administrative setting in Ukraine are elaborated. The specifics involved in elaboration and implementation of the State Strategy for Regional Development in Ukraine till the year of 2020 are analyzed from the perspective of the strategic goals included  in it: (і) enhancement of the regions’ competitiveness; (ii) territorial socio-economic integration and spatial development; (iii) effective public administration of regional development. A review of existing theoretical approaches to studying socio-economic development of regions is made, with outlining the existing drawbacks in monitoring. The emphasis is made on improvements in the system for assessment of the effectiveness of the achievement of goals and objectives of the regional development strategy, which will enable to make the decision making process in this field better grounded and improve control over its implementation It is argued that the system of statistical indicators needs to be constructed by the principle of consistency and informativeness, meaning that it has to be complete and capable to assess the development of Ukrainian regions in conformity with the fundamental provisions of regional policy The statistical tools selected and formed in timely and adequate manner have critical importance for practical implementation of the regional policy provisions. It follows that the statistical indicators have to be systematized in a way to be capable for assessing quantitative and qualitative specifics of macroeconomic and regional development. The system of indicators for assessment of the Strategy goals is formed, which expected estimates are targets of its implementation. It covers the indicators designed to assess the achievement of a result (such as number of finished projects), characterize the qualitative conditions of the regulated object (number of small enterprises per 10 thousand of the population), and the effectiveness of resource utilization (energy capacity). Also, the conceptual areas for improvement of the system for assessment of the effectiveness of the achievement of goals and objectives of the State Strategy for Regional Development are formulated.

During the years of independence in Ukraine, a certain set of investment instruments of state governance for regional development has been created: state and regional target programs, regional development agreements, agreements on implementation of interregional projects, programs for overcoming the state of depression, the State Fund for Regional Development (DFRD), and others. However, their level of performance is quite low.Notwithstanding the provisions of the State Strategy for Regional Development for the period up to 2020, regional development agreements and programs to overcome the state of depression of the territory are not implemented at all. The use of the DFRR in the "manual mode" reduces the role of the fund in solving the tasks of regional policy of the state.One of the main investment instruments of state governance for regional development are regional target programs. The analysis of target programs of the Odesa Oblast, which operated in 2015, showed that most of them did not meet the priorities of the economic and social development strategy of the Odessa region and (or) have other defects.Agreements on the implementation of interregional projects, the implementation of which contributes to the improvement of socio-economic development of two or more regions, have not been used at all. The same situation with regard to programs to overcome the state of depression of the territory.The inadequate institutional support of the DFRD leads to its underfunding, non-compliance with the rules for distributing its funds between regions, and non-compliance with the priorities of regional development.The article proposes: to return the practice of using agreements on regional development as a mechanism for coordinating the interests of central executive and local self-government bodies in relation to the implementation of strategic tasks of regional development; based on the principle of subsidiarity, delegate to the regional level the authority to develop programs to overcome the state of depression of the territory; to implement methodological recommendations for the evaluation of regional target programs.

The subject of the research is theoretical foundations and practical aspects of the State-based regional development in Ukraine, which is influenced by the process of decentralization. The article describes the status and characteristic tendencies of unification of regions of Ukraine. The problems of «duplication» of administrative functions of subjects of the State-based regional policy, as well as establishment of interaction of the State bodies with local self-government are considered. Negative results from delegation of powers to local public authorities and transfer of financial resources to city budgets are disclosed. The article researches reasons for the imbalance of regions and its consequences according to different indicators, as well as the mechanism of the State-based regulation of balanced development of regions. It is determined that the regional development strategy should solve the real problems of the functioning of amalgamated hromadas and effectively implement decentralization processes. The place of information policy in the system of making effective managerial decisions is defined. The authors substantiate the objective need to form a more practical strategy and its possible impact on the development of local units and the country in general. The instruments of public administration in the process of abuse of power at the regional level are examined. A number of top-priority problems are specified, which should be solved in the process of implementation of the decentralization reform. In particular, the issue of «local oligarchy», abuse and corruption in the context of decentralization of budgets are considered. According to the results of the research, promising directions for improving the regional development strategy for the effective functioning of the capacity of territorial hromadas for the purpose of social and economic development of society are defined.

Annotation. Introduction. Strategic management of the region – management activities aimed at achieving the goals in an unstable competitive market environment, including diagnostic analysis of the region. Purpose. The aim of the article is to study the management of regional development in the system of state regional policy at different levels, which is the prerogative of functional management of the region, identifying problems and forecasting socio-economic development of the region, developing strategies and ways to improve state regional policy in transformational conditions. Results. State regional policy in Ukraine allows to consider the composition of subsystems of the region on the basis of the theory of organization, can serve as a basis for systematic analysis of the region depending on the scale of management, production capacity, population and market infrastructure. The basis of regional planning is a reasonable formation of its goals and criteria. The development strategy of the region should be based on the theory of program-target management and provide for setting strategic and tactical goals, as well as criteria for achieving them – quantitative indicators that determine the extent or composition of the assessment of the goal compared to other possible options for regional development. Conclusions. At present, the sphere of the state regional policy is being reformed, which should take into account the provision of balanced development of the state and its regions. Asymmetry and problems of development of the territories of Ukraine are connected with many negative phenomena. The state regional policy should be aimed at creating a single integrated space, taking into account the European experience and new approaches to its improvement. Difficult economic situation in the region; budget problems do not allow for expanded production, so it is advisable to apply strategies of “fire extinguishing”, “retreat”, “guerrilla warfare”, “reduction” and “elimination”. Keywords: Regional development, state regional policy, region, management system, strategic management, strategy, planning, concept.

The most important task of the successful development and implementation of the regional development strategy is the adoption and implementation of well-grounded and timely management decisions aimed at increasing the attractiveness of the territory for target audiences. One of the directions of this realization is the creation and development of the competitive advantages of a particular territory. The steps taken in this direction in the regions of Ukraine are of a non-systemic nature and, as a rule, do not solve the problem comprehensively. This is due to the lack of both theoretical groundwork, on the basis of which it would be possible to develop a comprehensive strategy for the region, and an effective toolkit that ensures the systematic participation of stakeholders in the development and implementation of such a strategy. An important research topic is the consistency of the selected priorities with the goals of sustainable development, corresponding innovations within the framework of technological progress, which makes it relevant to use marketing tools to expand the analytical and communication tools of smart specialization. The purpose of this study is to analyze the possibilities of using strategic marketing for smart specialization tasks. Strategic marketing must be seen in the context of smart specialization, which is an innovative approach aimed at stimulating growth and job creation, allowing regions to define and develop their own competitive advantages. In the context of the practical implementation of the components of smart specialization as a process, strategic marketing can be considered as an active process with a long-term orientation, aimed at exceeding the average indicators in other regions by systematically pursuing a policy of creating a system of solutions that ensure the satisfaction of the needs of (current and prospective) stakeholders (current and potential) territories in a more efficient way than is possible in other regions. In the course of the study, it was determined that strategic marketing in the context of the practical implementation of smart specialization should be considered as a process of planning, developing and implementing strategic steps to gain a competitive advantage in selected areas. This process is necessary to map out the main goals of the region and find the most effective ways to achieve them.

The relevance of this study is determined by the need to improve the tools for developing strategies for the development of territorial socio-economic systems, taking into account the realities of the current stage of development. Among these realities are the formation of the economic space of the region and the limited resources for development, which determined the logic, goal and objectives of this study. The purpose of this study is to develop theoretical, methodological and practical recommendations for the formation of a regional development strategy taking into account the spatial component. To achieve this goal, the following tasks were formulated and solved: clarification of the essence and content of the category "economic space" as the basis for accounting for this category in strategic developments; identification of the features of regional development, taking into account the spatial component; development of principles and prerequisites for regional strategy taking into account the spatial component of development; formation of a scheme for accounting for the spatial component in the development of strategies for multi-level territorial entities; development and testing of a modified model of resource provision for territorial development strategies as an updated toolkit for regional strategy. The novelty of the results of this study lies in the development of theoretical, methodological and practical recommendations for using the spatial component in the formation of a regional development strategy, which, unlike existing developments, allow taking into account the properties and characteristics of economic space when developing a block for the distribution of territorial resources and thereby provide conditions for increasing the resulting parameters multilevel territorial entities and the region as a whole.
