This article analyzes the contribution of regional airports in Colombia to the development of the domestic air transport network, and with it, to the connectivity of the regions and their social and economic development. The growth and evolution of Colombian regional airports are supported and driven by a set of public and investment policies, designed exclusively for the air sector and implemented, almost continuously, since the liberalization of the air transport industry in the country in the early 1990s and are still in development. Having said this, this work analyzes how the network of regional airports have been able to develop in two and a half decades through public policies, and later, how these airports have positively impacted connectivity and socioeconomic development in the territories. All this is done through the presentation and analysis of related indicators.

The results of analyzing the approaches, concepts, programs, as well as the practices of strategic management of regional development, existing in Russia and abroad, are presented. Based on the revealed trends and taking into consideration the factors of global instability in the world, a complex of scientific provisions is worded with regard to forming of a relevant management strategy for social and economic development of regions in modern-day Russia. The suggested approach includes 10 provisions. 1. The strategy of the region social and economic development should be considered as an integral structure of subsystems taking into account the whole range of its natural, economic and social components, which constitute a unified territorial complex with multiple intricate internal and external relations. 2. It is necessary to analyze the social and economic status of the region in the totality of the fields of its production-and-economic activities; and compare the relevant set of indicators, provided by the state and regional statistics, to the available data obtained as a result of monitoring the functioning of the industrial enterprises. 3. The strategic priorities in the social and economic development of industrial enterprises in the Russian Federation entity should be formed through a system of supporting the making of managerial decisions on the region’s development, which would include the earlier mentioned methods, models and program complexes of the information-and-analytical system. 4. Russian Federation entities should elaborate the strategies of their social and economic development in compliance with the Forecast of the Science and Technology Development in the Russian Federation for the Period till 2030. 5. Since Russian Federation entities, in their essence, are integral formations with a unified wide range of natural, economic and social components, and are interested in proportionate and well-balanced development of those, it means that in order to ensure the strategic industrial and economic priorities of these regions, it is necessary to perform a complex analysis of the supporting infrastructure subsystems (engineering and technical facilities and communications, resources of all kinds, etc.) for the industrial enterprises being developed. 6. The concepts and programs of the social and economic development of regions should not only be properly elaborated and informationally tied to relevant federal programs. 7. No matter the scale of the regional development plans and the ambitions within those, as formed by the regional departments of state authorities, all of that can only be fulfilled by the population of those entities. 8. The strategy of social and economic development of any region, as a rule, comprises the programs for development of the secondary and higher professional education, the forming of which should be based on the forecasts of the demographic increase of population, development of industrial enterprises and organizations located on the region’s territories, etc. 9. It is impossible to fulfill the strategies of the development of Russian Federation entities without such an important component as public healthcare. 10. Various social programs and social protection of the population in general should be one of the crucial aspects when forming the strategies of development of Russian Federation entities

Education Needs

Around the Millennium we experienced the worldwide development and the growing importance of the role of higher education played in the social and economic development. A few years later, however, a crisis appeared in the situation of higher education (Kadocsa, 2002). The Hungarian higher education system faces the perspective of serious changes in its fundamental principals – such as its main activities and the economical ways which are used to finance these activities – even if only parts of the new educational scheme come into effect. Considering this fundamental activity aspect of the issue, there are new challenges which make necessary to rethink the role and aim of higher education and to define the new tasks needed in connection with education, research and other services. Hungarian Education needs to be renewed and improved to avoid a completebreak away; therefore, future priorities and tasks in order to fulfill these priorities need to be defined (Vincze and Harsányi, 2011). The new conception seems to be based on restrictions of the budget as it is experienced recently: a new structure available for a smaller part of society with a restricted budget has been under development. However, not even a battle, let alone a war can be won without money, horses and arms. The recent financial restrictions as well as the parts of the Széll Kálmán plan concerning education prove that serious amounts of governmental funds is taken away from education. The international improvement tendencies contradict to basically all of these Hungarian priorities.All in all, no reform or change – no matter how much wanted – can be achieved without appropriate funds.

Research background: Social and economic development involves a broad spectrum of social, economic and spatial phenomena. The multi-faceted nature of regional development arises directly from the fact that it is shaped by multiple factors. Current discourse emphasises the role of endogenous factors, which indicate the specific nature and the distinctive features of the given territory. Mobilising the endogenous potential ensures stable regional development dynamics. At the moment, one of the fundamental economic problems are the increasing differences in the development of specific regions. Purpose of the article: The purpose of this study is to assess the differentiation of the social and economic level development of Polish Voivodeships, applying the selected assessment methods for the years 2010 and 2015, draw up a rank list of regional units according to their development levels, and identify the groups of Voivodeships sharing similar development levels. The indicators used in this study, characterising the level of the social and economic development, have been systematised according to the following areas: demographics and labour market, regional entrepreneurship, local economy structure, innovation and research & development activities, technical infrastructure, social infrastructure, and the condition and protection of the natural environment. Methods: The level of the social and economic development of Polish Voivodeships was assessed using Zdzisław Hellwig’s development pattern method, which made it possible to rank them according to the level of development of Polish Voivodeship. The methodology is supplemented by Ward’s agglomerative clustering method, which made it possible to distinguish other Voivodeships according to the analysed phenomenon. The Voivodeship clustering method used Jenks' natural breaks classification method. Findings & Value added: Pursuing the research aims, the authors focused in particular on clear spatial differences. Through the analysis we were able to identify the changes in the social and economic development processes of the Polish regions. The Voivodeships were divided into groups according to their development level: the highest, high, low and the lowest.
