Abstract
This article focuses on the concept of sustainable development in the Middle East using the fuzzy sets method, taking into account cultural, historical, social, economic, and political factors, as well as the presence of stable national traditions. The Middle East region is the largest supplier not only of oil and gas, but also of high-tech solutions in various fields: from military equipment to agriculture. The potential of the Middle East countries has a significant impact on global processes, affecting economic, social and environmental trends, which leads to the need to study the processes of sustainable development of the countries of this region. The use of quantitative methods such as the fuzzy sets approach in the analysis of the development of countries and the region as a whole, takes into account modern processes of digitalization and allows us to systematize the criteria and results of the study, tracking changes and analysing trends and forecasts. These indicators for the development of the Middle East enables national strategies for sustainable development to be developed, both for individual countries in the region and for the global community as a whole. The purpose of this study is to assess the level of sustainable development of Middle Eastern countries in the context of digitalization of the economy on the basis of a fuzzy sets approach. As part of the study, the criteria for the sustainable development of the Middle East countries were systematized in three directions in accordance with the global concept of sustainable development (economic, social, and environmental directions), five criteria (indicators) in each direction. After applying a fuzzy-multiple approach to calculate the level of sustainable development of countries in each direction, a rating of countries in the Middle East in accordance with the level of sustainable development was formed.
