Abstract
The topic of regional inequality in socio-economic development is becoming more relevant every year. Ensuring the uniform development of the Russian regions is complicated by the high degree of heterogeneity of the country's economic space, which is expressed in socio-economic inequality between the regions. Currently, there is a differentiation of the subjects of the Russian Federation by the sectoral structure of GRP, by the level and quality of life of the population, etc., there are imbalances in budget security. This leads to a decrease in the attractiveness and competitiveness of the regions and generally weakens the national economy. According to the World Bank, Russia ranks 3rd in the world in terms of regional inequality. Government documents indicate that the state's goal is to reduce the differentiation of socio-economic development in regions with a reduced standard of living by 2022. The spatial development of most economic entities is characterized by significant differences. Economists point out that interregional asymmetryarises due to competitive advantages and features of the institutional environment. Reducing the inequality of regional development is possible if the standard of living in the depressed regions of the Russian Federation is increased. An important area for assessing the differentiation of regions is the development of a system of indicators that assess regional inequality. The assessment of the role of the region in the production of GRP can be obtained by calculating localization indicators and relative position indices, the dynamics, variation and depth of regional inequality are characterized by dispersion coefficients, as well as the differentiation of the population of regions by income, the analysis of the uniformity of the distribution of regions can be obtained from the analysis of income concentration indicators. In general, it can be noted that regional inequality in the socio-economic development of Russia tends to increase.
