Internal Resources of the Trajectory of the Leading Meso-level Economic Development

Abstract

The article examines the possibilities of using the internal resources of the meso-level economy for the purpose of advanced development. The strategy of advanced development for the Russian Federation today seems to be a search for the most optimal combination of intensifying innovation and recreating classic production facilities, which necessitates the need to initiate additional demand for the latest technologies. The article substantiates the dependence of the technological growth of the subject’s economy not only on the volume of investments, but to a greater extent on the effectiveness of their diversification between proven and the latest functional developments. An analysis of the problems of implementing the concept (strategy) of advanced development in the scientific works of Russian and foreign researchers results in the historical origin of leadership in the economy (science, the latest technologies, public standards in consumption), the internal commonality of leadership with advanced development, and time as an economic good. The purpose of the study is to study and analyze the state of the internal resources of the meso-level economy in order to formulate a strategy for advanced development in the context of a change in technological structures. In conclusion, this study presents possible vectors for the participation of internal resources in the rapid development of one of the constituent entities of the Russian Federation - the Kabardino-Balkarian Republic.
