Directions, tasks, tools reduction of spatial socio-economic asymmetry in regional development strategies

The growth of poverty and spatial asymmetry in the socio-economic development of territories contributes to the growth of social tension and the discontent of people living in these regions. The article presents a comparative analysis of regional strategies for seven constituent entities of the Russian Federation – the Vologda Region, Voronezh Region, Kostroma Region, Krasnoyarsk Territory, the Republic of Bashkortostan, the Republic of Sakha (Yakutia), the Republic of Tatarstan, based and updated in accordance with the requirements of the Federal Law of the Russian Federation of June 28, 2014 No. 172-FZ «On strategic planning in the Russian Federation». Regions have significant differences in geographical location, raw materials, infrastructure, and income level. The presence in the regions not only of an invariant, but also of a selective list of directions and tasks was revealed. A tool is proposed to reduce the spatial socio-economic asymmetry of the regions of Russia, selected taking into account the experience of the subjects in implementing strategies to smooth out spatial inequality in socio-economic development: a scheme for the development and distribution of productive forces (Voronezh Region): a strategy for the development of economic zones and agglomerations (Republic of Tatarstan ); development strategy of municipal districts and urban districts (Voronezh Region, Republic of Tatarstan); public-private partnership projects (Voronezh Region, Krasnoyarsk Territory, Republic of Tatarstan); geographic information system (Voronezh Region, Republic of Sakha (Yakutia), Republic of Tatarstan). The proposed strategies will make it possible to increase the effectiveness of measures implemented by the authorities of the constituent entities of the Russian Federation.
