Optimization of the Mechanism for Strategic Planning of Socio-Economic Development of the North Caucasus Federal District

Abstract

Determining the path of socio-economic development in the context of total progress requires a comprehensive analysis of the features of the development of Russian regions, taking into account political, economic, social, environmental and other priorities and goals of sustainable development. The role of methodological support for the formation and implementation of the strategic development of the region as a socio-economic system is growing. Partially, such methodological support has been formed, however, problems and disproportions in the field of managing regional strategic development remain. The program of social and economic development of the North Caucasus, which has been implemented in recent years, has not brought tangible results. One of the most important problems is recognized as the problem of the quality of planning the socio-economic development of the territory, which does not provide the goal of overcoming the chronic backlog of the economy and the social sphere. According to the Accounts Chamber of the Russian Federation, the estimates obtained indicate problems in organizing the activities of development institutions. The current mechanism of strategic planning for the socio-economic development of the North Caucasus Federal District as a priority geostrategic macro-region of Russia requires a revision of the fundamental aspects of the development and implementation of documents and emerging institutions, the demand for special mechanisms of state support.
