Abstract

One of the problems that have arisen in the past and have an inertial impact on the development of the Russian Federation is the problem of heterogeneity of the country’s socio-economic space. The large scale of the space of Russia predetermines the predominantly macroscopic nature of the regulatory impact, the object of which is large territorial formations: economic districts, federal districts, regions of the Russian Federation. Each separate region, each municipality is a complex system with a set of unique factors: geographic location, climatic conditions, resource potential, population, etc. The article presents the author’s methodology for assessing the differentiation of social and economic development of municipalities in the Voronezh region. In modern conditions, the formation of convenient and effective methods and tools for measuring sustainable social and economic development, which make it possible to give an unambiguous interpretation of the results, is of high value both from a research and management point of view. On the basis of the author’s methodology, an assessment of the differentiation of the social and economic development of municipalities in the Voronezh region has been carried out. The proposed method, having individual characteristics in limiting the number of basic indicators along with the existing approaches, contributes to obtaining more objective results and allows it to be used in the development of a regional social and economic Strategy. These indicators are among the most important areas of the region’s social and economic system.

Highlights

  • Differentiation is an inalienable property of the components of social and economic systems, traced by quantitative indicators

  • It is important to emphasize that the assessment of territorial differentiation, firstly, is always relative, and matters only in comparison, and secondly, it can be characterized by a multitude of heterogeneous indicators

  • No 607 “On the assessment of the effectiveness of the activities of local self-government bodies in urban districts and municipal areas” a list of indicators is provided on the basis of which this assessment is carried out. This is only an assessment of the activities of local self-government bodies, and not an assessment of the level of socio-economic development of municipalities. All this determines the relevance of this issue and the need for a qualitative assessment of the differentiation of socio-economic development of municipalities

Summary

Introduction

Differentiation is an inalienable property of the components of social and economic systems, traced by quantitative indicators. Territorial differentiation as a result, as a fact of economic and/or social reality, characterizes the regional system at a certain point in time and makes sense only in comparison with some standard, acceptable level or with another territorial system. It is known that the economic and social space cannot be completely homogeneous, and a certain level of differentiation of the social and economic space is natural and even useful. It "brings dynamism" to the development of the economy, creating a certain tension. The research of unevenness of territorial development involves the use of a set of indicators that consistently fix a particular feature of differentiation
