Institutional Changes in State Policy of Re-Industrialization and Industrialization of Regions in Russia: the Factor of Industrial Parks (illustrated by regions of the Central Federal district)

Abstract

Industrial and production parks in entities of the Russian Federation, on the one hand, act in research and managerial practices as the institution of sustainable development of the territory and as a mechanism of regional state industrial policy. On the other hand, they function as a project, which devises the institute of state and supports it on different stages of establishment and operation. In Russian regions industrial and production parks are integrated into the process of pursuing regional industrial policy by affecting through available samples and practices the federal policy in the industrial complex. Two-level state policy (federal and regional) itself obtains systematic and complex character, which fosters an increase in GDP, creation of highly-paid jobs and attaining competitiveness of manufactured goods of Russia on foreign markets. The article shows that the institute of industrial and production parks possesses both qualitative and quantitative estimation. In early July 2021 there were 179 industrial and production parks in regions of the Russian Federation and 99 parks were being established. In the process of institualization and development they became a key mechanism of productive changes in the industrial complex. Apart from that they were shaped as a mass phenomenon in pursuing state industrial policy. The authors proved that parks in view of regional state industrial policy can resolve three tasks: 1. Overcome negative consequence of de-industrialization; 2. Provide re-industrialization of the territory; 3. Pursue policy of new industrialization.
