Abstract
The purpose of socio-economic policy at any level is to improve the standard and quality of the population life, which is possible with the maximum implementation of the existing territory’s potential. There are many approaches at modern science to both defining the concept of the territory’s potential (municipality, region, state) and its assessment. A lot of researches are about the innovation, investment, economic potential of regions, but there isn’t assessment of the impact of territories’ spatial development on their potential, which determined the interest in conducting the study presented in the article. The purpose of the study was to develop a methodology for assessing the potential of a region, based on the impact of spatial development of the analyzed territory in the previous period of time. The purpose was achieved by solving a number of problems, such as disclosing the content of the territory’s potential concept, determining the constituent elements of the region’s potential structure, formalizing the approach to assessing the potential of the territory, analyzing the potential of 13 Volga regions, based on the influence of the correction coefficient of spatial development. The research methodology included the use of the following scientific methods: content analysis, formalization, statistical analysis, comparative analysis. The information base of the research was made up of data from the Federal State Statistics Service (Rosstat). There is an assessment of the potentials of 13 subjects of the Russian Federation located on the Volga River as a result of the conducted study, which based on the influence of the spatial development of these territories in previous periods of time – 15 and 30 years.
