STRATEGIC PLANNING OF THE UNITARY STATE IN CONDITIONS OF DECENTRALIZED BUDGETING

The purpose of the article is to deepen the scientific foundations of strategic planning using the provisions of the theory of purposeful reproduction and the principles of systematic methodology. In modern conditions in Ukraine there is an increase in financial self-sufficiency of regions with a simultaneous increase in social responsibility of the Center and Regions for the achievement of balanced and sustainable socio-economic development at different levels of management. The main objectives of the study were as follows: clarification of challenges and problems of strategic planning; disclosure of the essence and content of strategic planning in a unitary state; system classification of purposeful reproduction processes at different levels of management; rationale for the limits of budgetary centralism with budgetary federalism in the harmonious proportions of the "golden section"; defining the powers of Central and Regional authorities in the strategic planning of a sovereign state. The research methodology was based on the following methods: historical, dialectical, structural and functional, system analysis and synthesis, hypothetic and deductive, and logical modeling. The subject of the research is the scientific and methodological support of the justification of strategic objectives, priorities and indicators for planning long-term socio-economic development at the national and regional levels of management in terms of decentralized budgeting. The powers of the Central and Regional executive bodies are based on the provisions and principles of state formation on the basis of coordinated and synchronous interaction of purposeful reproductive processes. The execution of strategic planning processes and procedures by the Center and Regions under decentralized budgeting conditions determines those components of the development of a sovereign, independent, legal, social and unitary state, which are regulated by the volume and structure of the Consolidated State Budget. The establishment of proportions between the state and local budgets of Ukraine within the framework of the Consolidated Budget of the unitary state was carried out using the harmonious proportions of the "Golden Section", which ensures the balanced and systematic functioning of the Center and Regions as a dialectically separated unity. Conclusions. The main result of the study is a methodological approach to determining the competence of the Center and Regions in the strategic planning of socio-economic development on the basis of achieving coherence and synchrony of purposeful reproductive processes of different scales of market economy of the unitary Ukrainian state. The results of the study formed the basis of the scientific paradigm "Stable and sustainable socio-economic development for the Ukrainian people". Implementation. The methodological approach to the strategy of Regions and the Center for socio-economic development of the administrative region and the state as a whole was developed by the Khmelnytskyi Regional State Administration in 2015–2016. Strategic goals and priorities of socio-economic development of Luhansk and Donetsk regions were defined for 2014–2020 as an alternative to the Antiterrorist Operation (ATO), which was conducted from February to August 2014 in the Ukrainian Donbass.

Impacts of the Policy "Khu Tru Mat" on Residential Space of Vi Thanh - Hoa Luu (1960 – 1963)

Khu Tru Mat is one of the important rural policies issued by the Government of the Republic of Vietnam (1955 - 1963). Through this policy, Khu Tru Mat was established in many strategically located areas in the Mekong Delta. Accordingly, the Vi Thanh - Hoa Luu area was both an important intersection in the transport connection system and a strategic political-military position of the Government of the Republic of Vietnam in the Mekong Delta. Therefore, the implementation of the Khu Tru Mat policy in the Vi Thanh - Hoa Luu area was not only the goal of building a strategic political and military area of the Government of the Republic of Vietnam but also had a great impact on the rural face here. The purpose of this study is to analyze the impacts of the Khu Tru Mat policy on the spatial change of residential areas in the rural areas of Vi Thanh - Hoa Luu by exploiting the values from the data source at Vietnam's National Archives in Ho Chi Minh city. The research results not only provide important references but also orient some historical experiences for contributing to the strategic planning of socio-economic development in the Mekong Delta region of Vietnam today.

Are there differences in the forces driving the conversion of different non-urban lands into urban use? A case study of Beijing.

Examining the heterogeneous factors behind the conversion of various types of non-urban land into urban use is of great significance for controlling urban land expansion and formulating reasonable land use policies. Taking Beijing as an example, this study identified the spatial patterns of urban expansion in China's large cities and then explored the different driving factors behind its various sources. The results showed that, from 2001 to 2010, Beijing's urban land presented a compound expansion mode in which multiple spatial modes coexisted. Urban encroachment contributed differently to the loss of different non-urban lands. Cultivated land and ecological land were the main sources of newly developed urban land, of which the conversion was driven jointly by topography, location, transportation, socioeconomic development, and spatial planning. Moreover, the main factors behind the conversion of various land types varied: closing to existing built-up area and infrastructures increases the conversion probability of most land types; socioeconomic development has common but differentiated effects; governments at different levels have their influences on the conversion of different types of non-urban land. Based on the results, this study suggested the importance of considering varied approaches in managing non-urban lands to better controlling their conversion into urban use and the different roles that could be played by governments at various levels.

Problems and prospects of strategic planning Of regional development

Problem setting. In the direction of balanced regional development, the state has the opportunity to use such a direct lever of influence on the process as strategic planning. At present stage of reforming of the system of public administration of regional development, its role and importance are especially growing, because strategic planning makes it possible to predict the further development of territories. General purpose of strategic planning is to move to indicative forecasting, information support for objective management decisions at the regional, local and national levels, including concerning increase and effective realization of resource potential of the region, overcoming of depression of territories, realization of structural transformations.
 Recent research and publications analysis. Issues related to regional development are covered in works of such scholars as E. Alaev, G. Balabanov, P. Bubenko, Z. Varnalii, S. Haluza, Z. Herasymchuk, А. Holikov, H. Huberna, M. Dolishnii, L. Zaitseva, U. Ipatov, B. Kliianenko, V. Kravtsiv, O. Krainyk, N. Kuznetsov, L. Kuzmenko, A. Mazur, T. Maksymova, A. Marshalova, S. Melnyk, І. Mykhasiuk, N. Mikula, Y. Navruzov, O. Novoselov, V. Symonenko, D. Stechenko, H. Stolbov, L. Taranhul, S. Tiahlov, V. Khodachek, L. Chervona, М. Chumachenko, B. Shtulberh, M. Yankiv and others.
 Taking into account the significant achievements of the scholars in the field of regional studies, insufficiently complete and in-depth study of the issues of strategic planning of regional development is still worth emphasizing.
 Highlighting previously unsettled parts of the general problem. The main purpose of the article was to present a wide range of results of the study on the analysis of the problem and to justify the prospects of strategic planning of regional development.
 Paper main body. Public administration of regional development in Ukraine should take into account basic trends of reforming processes in the European Union. Like in European countries, in Ukraine there are normative documents, which frame the strategic planning, i.e. there is every reason to talk about the functioning of the regional development planning system. The main components of this system include: strategic plans for socio-economic development; spatial plans of territorial development (schemes of planning of the territory of the region, general plans and town-planning documentation of settlements); medium-term plans for socio-economic development of the region and targeted development programs for certain areas of activity; short-term programs of socio-economic development.
 Strategic, medium-term and short-term program documents of socio-economic development of the region are related to creating a favorable environment for the development of the regional economy and citizens’ life, meeting basic needs of business sector and people in various services, forming competitive advantages to enter outer markets, stimulation of entrepreneurial activity, active attraction of investments, development of various sectors of economy, etc. Spatial plans of different levels relate to the development of the territory as an object of implementation of urban policy of local authorities, they are tied to a specific space. Therefore, we can talk about two types of program documents. Both types are closely interrelated, contribute to improving the efficiency of the territory, but differ from each other.
 Today, in the field of strategic planning of regional development in Ukraine there are many problems resulting from the lack of a comprehensive system of strategic planning of regional development in the country. In particular, these are the following: inconsistencies between different strategic and planning documents; lack of clear links between planning documents and the budget; lack of a unified approach to planning, uncertainty of the status of sertain strategic documents, political and legal consequences of their non-implementation; inefficient system of public policy evaluation; lack of responsibility for making ineffective management decisions.
 The main directions of strategic planning were identified: intellectual growth of territories, which involves economic development based on the growing development of production infrastructure, knowledge, research, inventions, patents and innovations, i.e. reorientation of regional economies to an innovative model of development; sustainable and continuous growth of territories for creation of an economy based on the efficient use of resources, in particular, environmental resources, and increasing the efficiency of use of natural resources, economic potential of the region; comprehensive growth of living standards through the development of social infrastructure, increasing employment, human resources development and achievement of social well-being; increasing the investment attractiveness of regions and intensifying innovation activity therein, as well as increasing the competitiveness of regions.
 Conclusions of the research and prospects for further studies. Strategic planning of regional development is a powerful tool to unite the interests of the public, local business and local authorities, which has a positive impact on the business climate, community welfare, and competitive position of the territory. It is a creative process of defining strategic directions and agreeing on realistic goals and objectives, implementation of which will help to achieve a better future.

SPATIAL DEMOGRAPHIC DATA FOR PLANNING AND RESEARCH

In Malaysia, spatial demographic studies are lacking due to data paucity. This exploratory study illustrates the relevance of spatial demographic data for development and business planning at the local level. Data for this study came from Malaysian population censuses, vital statistics reports and social statistics bulletins. Bivariate analyses were performed to present some examples of the potential use of spatial demographic data for more target-oriented planning. Data show that the population in several densely populated districts continues to grow rapidly. Hence, development planning should aim to forestall the exacer-bation of the regional imbalance. Localities with high birth rate and rapid population ageing must be prepared to cope with the changing demographic scenario. The wide variations in pupil-teacher ratio across districts indicate the need for resource reallocation. The under-reporting of births and deaths in the remote areas may result in misallocation of health and educational resources. Comparisons of indictors from different data sources demonstrate data inconsistency and deficiency. This study aims to present a strong case for collecting and disseminating small area statistics to enhance spatial demographic research for socio-economic development, infrastructural, regional and business planning.

Stakeholder Expectations of Future Policy Implementation Compared to Formal Policy Trajectories: Scenarios for Agricultural Food Systems in the Mekong Delta

The development of a coherent and coordinated policy for the management of large socio-agricultural systems, such as the Mekong delta in southern Vietnam, is reliant on aligning the development, delivery, and implementation of policy on national to local scales. Effective decision making is linked to a coherent, broadly-shared vision of the strategic management of socio-agricultural systems. However, when policies are ambiguous, and at worst contradictory, long-term management and planning can consequently suffer. These potential adverse impacts may be compounded if stakeholders have divergent visions of the current and future states of socio-agricultural systems. Herein we used a transferable, scenario-based methodology which uses a standard quadrant matrix in order to explore both anticipated and idealized future states. Our case study was the Mekong delta. The scenario matrix was based upon two key strategic choices (axis) for the delta, derived from analysis of policy documents, literature, stakeholder engagement, and land use models. These are: (i) who will run agriculture in the future, agri-business or the established commune system; and (ii) to what degree sustainability will be incorporated into production. During a workshop meeting, stakeholders identified that agri-business will dominate future agricultural production in the delta but showed a clear concern that sustainability might consequently be undermined despite policy claims of the contrary. As such, our study highlights an important gap between national expectations and regional perspectives. Our results suggest that the new development plans for the Mekong delta (which comprise a new Master Plan and a new 5-year socio-economic development plan), which emphasize agro-business development, should adopt approaches that address concerns of sustainability as well as a more streamlined policy formulation and implementation that accounts for stakeholder concerns at both provincial and national levels.

Goal-Setting Model in Multilevel State Strategic Management of Socio-Economic Development

In the context of the deployment of transient processes and the exacerbation of crisis phenomena in socio-economic systems of various types, the importance of a reasonable setting and correction of development goals increases. For the current situation in the Russian Federation, when the implemented program of constitutional amendments creates the preconditions for the subsequent reform of public authorities and the mechanism of multi-level strategic planning, it is especially important to conduct research in the field of substantiating scientific approaches to the development of mathematical methods for solving the problem of strategic goal-setting. One of the key points in the modernization of the methodological support of strategic planning in the context of the constitutional transformation of the system of public authorities is consideration of the value foundations of activities in the systems of distributed management of socio-economic development, analysis of the problems of formalizing the setting of goals by the participants in the multi-level strategic planning process and substantiation of the structure of the theoretical model of goal-setting. The article considers the general characteristics of the functioning of the system of state strategic planning in the Russian Federation from the point of view of goal achievement. The institutional and conceptual foundations of goal setting are presented. The relationship between the concepts of “goal”, “target indicator” and “target function” are shown. The interrelation of the tasks of goal-setting and programming of the activity of an economic agent is characterized. An approach to formalizing goal-setting based on a theoretical scheme of mutual development planning tasks is proposed. The general structure of the strategic goal-setting model in the organizational mechanism of multi-level long-term planning determined. A possible approach to the algorithmization of the solution of the linear formulation of the goal-setting problem in the multisubject development control space based on the methods of target programming and multicriteria optimization was proposed. The formation of an operator of iterative management of the potentials and development priorities of interacting economic and social agents on the horizon of strategizing substantiated. To introduce a theoretical model of goal-setting into the practice of strategizing in the context of the formation of a digital platform of public administration, it is necessary to develop appropriate algorithmic support, as well as the formation of a regulatory and information base and the definition of an organizational and technological basis. Further improvement of the analytical and methodological tools for supporting the activities of strategic planning participants at the goal-setting stage is associated with the description and analysis of the corresponding applied tasks of goal setting at various levels and areas of socio-economic development planning.

HISTORICAL ORIGINS OF THE FORMATION OF THE CHINESE ECONOMIC MODEL

The article analyzes the history of formation, main features, characteristics and stages of development of the Chinese economy, which has been demonstrating economic growth over the past decades. The country's economic success is updated by research on the historical origins, place and role of the Chinese economic model in global economic development. In the historical context, the origins of the Chinese model of economy are seen in the main features of the Asian mode of production, the constant presence of the state in the regulation of public life and in economic development. It is characterized that the formation of the Chinese model of the economy began with the economic reforms of 1978, the features of which were focused only on economic changes with an unchanged political system; the absence of any privatization and the creation of private enterprises from scratch during market reforms; the leading role state regulation and national economic plans in the development of the economy. The characteristic features of the modern Chinese model of the economy include: a strong state with a large-scale public sector of the economy; active state intervention in macroeconomic regulation, planning and forecasting of socio-economic development; a multi-layered economy, an effective combination of various forms of ownership, a combination of traditional and modern ways of life; the implementation of the Confucian model of a just state, which should create equal opportunities for self-development of everyone; the special role of national mentality, traditions and Customs; a high level of disciplinary culture and stable organization of society; the dominance of pragmatism and rationalism. It is investigated that the most important feature of the Chinese economic model is the development of the real sector of the economy, and the main tools of global competition are considered here new technologies and innovative industries that are supported by government programs.

Turberas en Valle del Alto Mayo, Perú: importancia, amenazas y perspectivas de conservación

Los palmares de Mauritia flexuosa (aguajales) son considerados las principales turberas tropicales amazónicas que contribuyen al mantenimiento de la biodiversidad y del ciclo hidrológico, además de su aporte en el secuestro y almacenamiento de carbono. Mediante una revisión bibliográfica y observaciones de campo, se identifica la importancia, factores de amenaza y oportunidad para estos ecosistemas. Las turberas almacenan más del doble de carbono que todos los bosques del mundo en conjunto y conforman un grupo objetivo para el estudio del cambio climático. El acceso a sistemas de extracción no destructiva para la cosecha de los frutos debe estar articulado con planes socioeconómicos de desarrollo. Es imprescindible la aplicación de políticas participativas de educación ambiental e incentivos económicos a las comunidades que protegen estos territorios.

Designing the Participation on Local Development Planning: From Literature Review to Adaptive Framework for Practice

This exploratory review of the literature provides a comprehensive overview of the settings that are available to the planner when managing participatory strategic planning of spatial socio-economic development on the local level. We contextualize individual potential configurations of participation in local development planning practice, documented in a number of case studies from different parts of the world, in order to reflect the multidimensionality of the participatory planning process. These reflections are used to build a participation plan model, which aimed to help local planners, especially local governments, to optimize the participation of local stakeholders, according to the specifics of the local environment. The paper evaluates the options of planners to manage the participation from perspective of the organization of participation, the determination of its scope, selection of stakeholders, methods and techniques of communication, decision-making and visualization, as well as the deployment of resources, or the possibility of promotion and dissemination of information. As a practical implication of this review, we compose a participation matrix, which is intended to be an auxiliary tool for planners to establish own locally-specific participation plans and that can serve as tool for education, or life-long learning of planners.

ВЛИЯНИЕ ИЗМЕНЕНИЙ КЛИМАТА НА ЛЕСНЫЕ РЕСУРСЫ РЕСПУБЛИКИ БАШКОРТОСТАН

The paper deals with the impact of climate change on the forest resources of the Republic of Bashkortostan. The basis of forest cover is formed by stands with a predominance of pine, spruce, birch, linden, alder, aspen, and oak. Climate changes directly or indirectly affect the state of forest ecosystems and, as a result, the development of the entire forestry complex of the Republic. The climate affects the productivity, species composition of forests, as well as their resistance to destructive natural and anthropogenic factors. One of the most pressing issues today is the assessment of the significance of the ongoing climate changes for forest ecosystems, both in the field of fundamental research and in the planning of socio-economic development of regions. Indicator plants confirm ecological displacement of the distribution areas of plant species due to changes in temperature and hydrological regimes, as well as anthropogenic factors. Proceeding from the fact that the type of forest is derived from climate, terrain, groundwater level, soil conditions, there is a problem of forecasting the climatically determined dynamics of the forest based on the current relief of the area and soils in the Republic of Bashkortostan
