Abstract

The purpose of the study is to establish scientific rational for the use of the foresight methodology in the strategic planning of rural development. The scientific novelty of the study is determined by the development of an algorithm for strategic planning of rural development based on the foresight methodology and by the formation of a set of practical recommendations for the use of foresight tools at the municipal level of management in rural areas. The paper states that modern foresight methodology is quite flexible and multifaceted. It can be widely applied at different hierarchical levels of management. In our research, we consistently analyzed foresight projects and programs used in the rural management and development forecasting. The use of a systematic approach in combination with foresight technologies allows developing strategic plans for the rural areas development from the perspective of improvement of their economic and social component. The research presents the foresight algorithm of the rural development strategic planning and its implementation mechanism at the municipal level. The main components of the foresight testing procedure of the rural areas economic development were determined on the example of such a classic agricultural region of the Russian Federation as the Republic of Bashkortostan. The results of a comprehensive foresight analysis of alternative scenarios of the rural development have been formed. We summarized that the foresight technologies should be used as a system tool for the formation and implementation of the strategy of the sustainable rural areas development. The main results of the study include summarizing the experience of foresight studies on the rural areas development; design of an algorithm of strategic planning of the rural areas development based on the foresight methodology; the formation of alternative scenarios of the rural areas development at the regional level.

Highlights

Today, there is an increased interest of the scientific community to the problems of the use of foresight technologies in the strategic planning of the development of space territorial systems
General methodological principle of foresight and its development in foreign countries is the involvement of different social forces such as scientific community, business structures, civil society, and representatives of state municipal authorities in the process of promising strategies discussing and making forecasts for the rural areas development [3]. e main development imperative of the modern foresight concept determines a more active use of the knowledge of the expert community involved in the development of foresight projects [4]
In contrast to previous foresight projects presented after having studied publications of other scientists [20, 21], in our research we did not consider alternative scenarios of the territorial entities development based on model solutions
