The Article considers a problem of searching for the proper mechanism of leveling intra-regional development of the resource region. Imbalances of spatial socio-economic development cause unreasonable migration of population, along with the formation of depressed areas and unsustainable development of the region as a whole. This problem is particularly evident in resource regions with the developed sector of extractive industries, where mining companies do not invest in the territories of their presence, but mainly use rotational work. To solve the existing problem it is suggested to apply a project approach for territorial development, based on a private-public partnership. It allows providing sustainable financing for the project implementation and combination of economic and social goals for the development of the service territory. The aim of the research is to substantiate the mechanism of reducing an asymmetry in intra-regional development of the resource region using the project-based approach. An analysis of the project-based approach applied to reduce intra-region disproportions of economic and social development by the example of Krasnoyarsk Krai has demonstrated its high efficiency.

The article examines the problems of agglomerations management from the perspective of improving the territorial organization of the population. Various methods of allocation of agglomerations, including in foreign countries, are considered. Agglomerations currently play a key role in the socio-economic development of territories, forming innovative processes in large territorial systems. It is necessary to develop unified methodological approaches that can be used to develop legislation on the definition of agglomerations and their management within the framework of spatial development and territorial management. The authors propose basic principles that reflect the essence of agglomeration. The article considers the distribution of powers between the levels of government in the field of agglomerations development.

The article is an important study on the contribution of approaches to the theory of development to the development of agricultural economics. It presents the main achievements applied in approaches to the theory of stages of economic development, the theory of production and the theory of the relationship between growth and income inequality. The data are collected from publications of statistical offices of several countries around the world, as well as from scientific articles related to theories and empirical studies of economic development of farms. The research is based on traditional methods of historical science: problematic, comparative historical and systemic. The results show that there is no economically optimal agricultural structure; rather, it seems that it evolves depending on the stage of economic development. Today, when the world agriculture is experiencing a crisis in new conditions, it is important to objectively assess the experience of the development of farms in the countries of the world and draw the necessary recommendations from this. The key areas of development of the modern farming economy are: strengthening the role of agricultural cooperatives, stimulating the creation of procurement, supply and sales structures, the development of credit cooperation, facilitating the connection of farms to global value chains, implementation of digital transformation in agriculture.

The main purpose of the study is to develop a methodology for assessing the economic security of the region in the context of income security as the main component. The Russian approaches to the economic security of the region are generalized using the methods of content analysis, its components are highlighted – the state of the socio-economic system, safety, sustainable development, and external and internal threats protection. It is noted that the main criteria for measuring economic security is not the identification and neutralization of threats, but the maintenance of a decent standard of living and the availability of necessary and sufficient resources to ensure it. The author's hypothesis is that income security is a reflection of the level of economic security of the region. A regional index of economic security is developed. The quantitative measurement of the level of economic security of the region is based on data for 81 regions of the Russian Federation for the period from 2010 to 2019; the calculations were carried out using the methods of statistical analysis. Analysis of the level of economic security of the regions in terms of income security reveals a number of contradictory points that emphasize the differentiation of regions by the level of socio-economic development. Calculations show that subsidized regions are the leaders of economic security, while industrially developed regions are rated below average. Based on the results, it was concluded that the lag in the level of wages and pensions does not determine the correlation between the level of economic development of the territories and the level of income of the population.

Over the past several decades, China's Northeast has been a challenge for political leadership. Once the center of modern industrial socialist China, today the region lags far behind the rest of the country in terms of economic, social and environmental development. Over the past twenty years, the central and local governments of the PRC have made persistent efforts aimed at revitalizing and imparting a new dynamic to the development of the region. However, its economy is still depressed, and the social situation is difficult. This does not mean that the situation is not changing at all. The years that have passed since the beginning of reforms in the Northeast have been marked not only by a deeper understanding of the essence of the problems, but also by some positive practical changes. All this creates the theoretical and practical baggage that is necessary for effective management of the development of peripheral territories in the changing global and national conditions. The accumulated experience is of theoretical and instrumental interest for solving the problems of peripheral and / or depressed territories and in other national contexts. Last but not least, this concerns Russia, for which the task of «exploration and development» of its remote eastern territories has also remained relevant for many years. Even though the peripheral / border territories of Russia and China function in many different natural, economic and political conditions, they have different experience and traditions of economic development, the mutual exchange of experience in managing their development can be useful for developing more effective and efficient strategies for solving the problems of depressive and / or lagging regions.

The manifestations of the rank reversal effect in the study of ecological and economic objects are considered. This phenomenon occurs in various expert technologies when new factors are added and changes the order of their arrangement in the ranked series. This leads to a change in the significance of factors, their weighting coefficients and may, in turn, affect the ranking of alternatives when using some approaches and models. The problem of the occurrence of violations in formal logical constructions when using expert methods is discussed, for which the authors find explanations that are quite acceptable from a meaningful point of view. It is shown that one of the reasons for the appearance of the rank reversal effect when ranking a combined group of factors and alternatives may be the appearance of a "group expert", as a result of which significant changes occur in the initial order. Using a concrete example - the task of justifying the choice of the location of an industrial facility with associated infrastructure in the Arctic zone of the Russian Federation, it is shown how this can happen. A recommendation is given which order of factors established after the addition of new ones should be taken as final.

It is proposed to consider the dynamics of trends contributing to and hindering the achievement of the set goals and objectives as the objects of state regulation of the processes of socio-economic development of rural areas at the federal and regional levels. In the agricultural sector of the economy, one of the main goals of the rural areas development is the need to increase the income and employment of the rural population through an increase in the volume of sales of competitive agricultural products in domestic and foreign agro-food markets based on the activation of rural entrepreneurship, the formation of the necessary state support for this. In the article, for example, the results of the analysis are given, which made it possible to establish long-term trends of increase or decrease in the volume of grain and milk production in various categories of farms (agricultural organizations, farms, households). The focus areas for the functional tasks to regulate the activation of rural entrepreneurship at the federal and regional levels are outlined.

Socio-economic growth in accordance with the established targets is the province's competitiveness. However, the matter on how to strengthen competitiveness to help advance a sustainable economy in the future is a riddle, not only for every country but also for every province and city to consider and prioritize. In this regard, an analysis on the regional competitiveness concept has been executed. In addition, a practical study of the competitiveness of Da Nang Province is also presented, based on the assessment of the regional competitiveness index rating. The results show that although Da Nang is classified as a "very good" competitor, there are still many limitations in competitiveness related to transparency indicators and land availability. Especially during the Covid-19 pandemic, communication between the government and enterprises was untimely, which led to a weakening of leadership dynamism and restricting business support services. According to the results of the study, the authors substantiate proposals to increase the competitiveness of the region in the new economic conditions.

The economic space of the country and regions, which forms the living and living conditions of the population, has not yet become the object of management influences carried out by federal, regional and local authorities. A feature of the modern state of this space is the lack of stability and unprepared many, if not most, of its territorial segments to provide normal and accessible living conditions for the population living in them. The article considers the issues of formation and development of regional life support systems for the population and proposes approaches to the modernization of organizational forms and methods of regulation of life support conditions in regional systems of the country in the form of mass life service systems of various types of organizational form, legal status, goals, principles and criteria of functioning. It was shown that cooperative associations and cooperation in the field of life create conditions for the transformation of corporations into self-organizing systems and processes.

The purpose of the study is to test the hypothesis about the nature of the relationship between nature and society. In the article, the authors argue that there is no mutual conquest in the interaction of nature and society, but there is exchange. The study of the relationship between society and nature based on the model of exchange between nature and society has both theoretical and practical significance. The exchange between nature and society as a methodological method of a holistic view of the ecological relations of a society with its environment makes it possible to expand the categorical apparatus for solving environmental problems of a country, region, municipalities and organizations. Using exchange as a methodological tool for analyzing the relationship between nature and society, the authors reveal the main environmental problems of the Komi Republic of Komi; unsolved implementation of the polluter pays principle; unprofitable services for the collection and disposal of waste; improvement of environmental management at enterprises.

Relevance. Modern entrepreneurship is a new phenomenon in the contemporary history of Russia, it is not a revival of the pre-revolutionary entrepreneurship, which, having barely been rooted in the social structure of the Tsarist Empire, was destroyed in the first half of the 20th century by the Soviet power. We find it necessary to emphasize that the instability of the society during the transitional period is engendered by joint, but not co-organized actions of people, when the soviet system was already broken, while the other one – has not yet been created. In this situation, special social entities become relevant in the society, and the people, who form them, take part in the processes of social interaction. In Russia, entrepreneurship became such special entity, which very quickly was integrated into the social structure of the society. As early as 2002, the all-Russian population census recorded that a new social entity, which was not present in the soviet society, had in its structure the owners-employers numbering about 1 million persons and 2 million of private entrepreneurs [3].
Most characteristically this process can be seen in the example of the Far East of Russia, where as far back as the mid-1977, in the course of privatization, the assets were basically determined by the forms of property. Out of 143,855 enterprises and organizations, only 9,958 remained state-owned, which amounted to 6.95%, and 9,062 were municipally-owned (6,5%) [5].
Yet, under conditions of the economic and financial gravitational shift of the world to the Asia-Pacific Region, where 60% of the world’s GDP accounts only for 21 APEC member states, inhabited by more than 40% of the planet’s population [1], the Russian Federation critically faces a strategic objective of integration into the Asia-Pacific Region. The Far East proved to be a connecting link for such integration, because far-eastern entrepreneurs have already had the trade and investment connections with the business world of the Asia-Pacific region countries, the system of «co-development» was forming between the enterprises of the Russian Far East and the neighboring countries of the Asia-Pacific region. It has been shown that the Far East with its transit transport functions, taking into account the revival and development of the Northern Sea Route, availability of unique mineral raw materials having worldwide significance, fuel and energy, forest and marine biological resources on the territory of the region which occupies 36.4% of the entire Russian territory, which has practically been already a part of the space of the Asia-Pacific Region [6], proved to be a region, the future of which the President of the Russian Federation, V.V. Putin, has marked as «one of the key centers of the entire country in the twenty-first century»[13]. This became a basis for the Federal Purpose-Oriented Program «Social and Economic Development of the Far East and Baikal Region for the Period up to 2025» [15]. The state provided an unprecedentedly high level of financing – Ruble10.6 trillion, taking into account that the Far East is one of the most important regions of the country both strategically and in terms of its geopolitical position, being also a naval outpost of Russia in the Asia-Pacific region.
The article analyzes the reasons for mistakes and corruption in managing the realization of these strategic objectives. The conclusion was made regarding the initial stage of forming the new mission of the territories neighboring the countries of the Asia-Pacific Region.

When the methodology of the present research has been developed, the following principles have been used as its basis: the principle of determinism – to identify the general interconnectedness and causal dependence of all the phenomena related to modernizing the functions of the state for supporting entrepreneurs in their formation and determining the sphere of their activity; the principle of credibility – in the use of various types of sources for formation of the author’s concept by the results of the work on the topic; the principle of objectivity – for comprehensive representation of the specifics of the entrepreneurship development in the Far East under conditions of solving a strategic task – integration of Russia into the Asia-Pacific Region; the principle of contradiction – for identifying the essence of the entrepreneurship in the far-eastern vector, which had begun to form under conditions of remoteness from the center and disintegration between the far-eastern entities of Russia, which had become independent administrative entities, and the necessity to enter the market of the Asia-Pacific region countries in the context of Russia’s integration into the Asia-Pacific world.
Result. It was found out that as early as 1997, an economic structure ruling out the investments from the state budget was formed in the country. Thus, in 1998, the share of investments from the federal and municipal budgets was equal to 19.2%, whereas in 1994 it still stood at the level of 24.0% [5]. At that stage of historical development of the Russian Federation, performance of two national tasks was of great importance: the first task of the state was the formation of the positive attitude of the population to the entrepreneurial activity; the second one was a systemic application of the steering levers for raising the efficiency of the state support for business.
From the standpoint of the state, an entrepreneur was called to ensure realization of the high-order purposes and interests (growth of public welfare, employment support, strengthening national security, providing economic aid, etc.).
From the perspective of the entrepreneur, it is the state that must create conditions, under which he will be able to achieve his goals efficiently (maximization of profit, efficiency of investments, minimization of risk, protection of property and individual rights).
Conclusions. Formation of the comprehensive system of the state support for the entrepreneurship, which is a complex and long process, based on the following:
- a legislative and regulatory framework, which determines and takes into account the specific conditions of the regions, regulating forms and methods of its support and procedure for decision making;
- the mechanisms being applied, which generate observance of lawfulness and equal rights of the small business representatives in relationships of the government authorities with other economic entities;
- a need for creating «smart» (innovative and digital) economy, encompassing many aspects and fields of the activity being undertaken, which required the knowledge of business culture at the level of the businessmen from the Asia-Pacific region countries;
- a protracted search for the new models of the Far East advanced development (innovation model, «cluster» model, priority development areas (PDA), «cooperative development» with the business world of the Asia-Pacific region countries) had disoriented the entrepreneurs, which resulted in their remaining role as «suppliers» of raw materials from the natural wealth of the Far East to the developing nations of the Asia-Pacific region.

State programs are the most important tool for strategic management of territories. In terms of population, the Samara region ranks 11th among the regions of Russia and 4th among the regions of the Volga Federal District. In 2020, 50 state programs were implemented in the Samara region. Evaluation of the effectiveness of state programs as strategic planning documents was carried out on the basis of an analysis of the degree of achievement of strategic indicators (indicators), the planned values of which are established in federal and regional strategic planning documents, national and federal projects, long-term action plans, decrees and decisions of the President of the Russian Federation and the Government of the Russian Federation Federation. As a result of the study, it was revealed that in the Samara region we can talk about an effective regional policy in the relevant areas of the socio-economic development of the region, however, the assessment of the implementation of target indicators in the implementation of state programs of the Samara region made it possible to substantiate the need for an integrated approach and periodic refinement of the assessment criteria.

In 1992, several local markets for associated petroleum gas (APG) emerged in Western Siberia, the main oil-producing region of Russia. By their structure, all local markets were monopoly-monopsony. In countries where APG handling evolved with the development of oil production, there were no APG markets and APG handling was part of the oil producer's business. In the absence of an economic theory of the APG market and the ability to organize competition in the market, the state was forced to price APG using an empirical approach. Its use stimulated the demand for development of scientifically grounded theory of APG price setting. The first stage of the new approach was the development and introduction of the price scale based on ensuring the self-sufficiency of APG processing. The evolution of the toolkit developed on the basis of formation of the socially optimal price of APG is considered. The results of calculations of socially optimal APG prices at several local markets are given.

The article examines the global trends in the development and implementation of renewable energy sources. The world indices of the development of unconventional energy are compared with the Russian ones. The analysis showed that all over the world, the main trend in energy policy is the transition from non-environmentally friendly fuels to cleaner - renewable energy sources. Renewable energy supplies over a quarter (26%) of global electricity production. Over the past 20 years, the generation of electricity from renewable energy sources in the world has grown more than 10 times, and solar and wind energy are in the first place. Thanks to comprehensive policy measures, investments in research and development of unconventional energy in Europe, the United States, etc. renewable energy technologies are widespread. Due to the technological breakthrough in this area, in these countries, there is currently a downward trend in the cost of electricity generated with the help of renewable energy sources. Despite the world experience, the obvious advantages of renewable energy sources (inexhaustible energy resources, environmental friendliness, lack of a fuel component in the cost of energy produced) and their huge potential in Russia, the development of non-traditional energy is not widespread here. The share of renewable energy sources in electricity production in the country is 0.2%.

An important role in the preservation and development of democracy in the Russian Federation is assigned to local self-government bodies. But, within the framework of one municipality, financial and organizational difficulties arise in solving the problems of life support of the population and expanding the scope of municipal services provided.
The European Charter of Local Self-Government provides for the possibility of interaction of local self-government bodies to expand opportunities to meet the needs of the population through the introduction of inter-municipal cooperation, the main provisions of which are developed in Russian legislation.
It should be noted that the problems of the development of municipalities in the research literature are mainly aimed at studying the issues of the development of depressed territories, single-industry towns, and the directions of implementation within the regional policy of stimulating municipalities for the development of territories require additional study. This is especially true of considering the problems of applying mechanisms of horizontal interaction of municipalities to meet the social needs of the population.
The effectiveness of the use of various forms of intra-regional inter-municipal cooperation on the example of a subject of the Russian Federation is analyzed and criteria for determining the most rational combination of subjects of inter-municipal cooperation in terms of functions and powers performed are proposed.

The vast majority of goods consumed by the population of any country in the world are transported using twenty-foot or forty-foot containers. More than 80% of container traffic is carried out using sea transport along transport routes formed under the influence of political and economic processes. This type of transport is generally recognized as the most optimal in the ratio of price and reliability factors. The onset of a new crisis, which entered an active phase in 2019 under the influence of the spreading Covid-19 pandemic, made it relevant to analyze the changes in the transport industry that took place in the global container transport industry from the beginning of the crisis to the present day, as well as how the events highlighted during the research can affect the further course of the field of international cargo transportation. The article analyzes the events that have occurred with the container shipping industry over the past 2 years, carried out by studying statistical information and conducting an expert survey, and also put forward a hypothesis regarding the future development of the transit railway transportation industry, due to changes in the pricing policy of sea transportation and ongoing political and economic processes.

The article analyzes the concept of sustainable development in the aspect of critical changes in the economic environment of the regions, caused by the impact of the pandemic coronovirus. The system qualities of the regional economy are revealed and the approaches reflecting the conditions and nature of ensuring the sustainability of regional development are systematized. The paper identifies indicators of resistance that ensure the adaptability of the system to the new economic reality. As a result, the author concludes that sustainability is determined by the nature of the relationship between the existing economic infrastructure of the region, state authorities and objective pandemic conditions, which act as the "context" of economic changes. The author identified the factors that form the anti-crisis potential of the regions in the context of constantly changing development contexts. These include structural factors inherited by the economic system, the adaptability of regional business structures to digital technologies, the diversity and quality of public administration tools.

The article is devoted to the problems of food supply of the population of Yakutia. The low bioclimatic potential of the agro-industrial complex of regions classified as inaccessible and remote territories, which includes the Republic of Sakha (Yakutia), determines the need for a special approach and support for food supply by the state.
In order to address the issue of food security in the northern and Arctic regions, the State should set targets for such regions with thresholds below which the availability of food stocks cannot be lowered. At the same time, the regulatory regulation of the provision of the missing part of food should be carried out at the expense of federal resources.
In addition, the entities of the Russian Federation themselves should pay special attention to food security. The agrarian policies of such regions should aim at implementing more effective measures and developing mechanisms that would improve their food self-sufficiency.
The purpose of the study is to offer recommendations to solve acute problems of food supply in the northern and arctic regions of Russia.

Latin American and Caribbean (LAC) belongs to the regions where Sars-Cov-2 coronavirus pandemic has become a true disaster. As estimated, the 8.4% of the world's population accounted for 27.8% of Covid-19 deaths. The pandemic burst forth in a complex economic, social and political scenario of low growth, rising poverty and growing social tensions, leading to a multidimensional crisis. As a result of the steep economic recession, the region’s GDP declined by 9 per cent in 2020. ECLAC estimates that the total number of poor people rose to 209 million by the end of 2020, this means that the poverty rate affected 33.7% of the population. Experts do not hide the fact that such consequences have jeopardized the implementation of the SDGs on most of the targets, primarily on “decent work and economic growth”, poverty reduction, achieving “good health” and “quality education”, and reducing social inequality. In the fight against the pandemic, Latin American governments tried to apply international experience, using measures acceptable in the LCA conditions in relation to displacement and isolation, health, education and social protection. On March 2021, dealing with priority tasks of recovery, Commission reiterates the need of big push for sustainability based on the core elements of the 2030 Agenda. This article aims to evaluate the main measures taking by Latin American governments to tackle the Covid-19 spread, as to analyze the action strategy proposed to them by the international think tanks. To achieve the goal set in the article, the author considered the latest reports of ECLAC, the World Bank and Inter-American Bank, the United Nations Development Program, etc. Digital databases regarding the current situation of key aspects of the SDGs in the LCA region was also tracking. An attempt was also made to compare the Latin American trends with the ongoing transformations in other parts of the planet. The author concludes that the incorporation of the SDGs into national plans to overcome the consequences of the corona crisis is justified in the conditions of Latin-Caribbean America, however, it requires closer interregional cooperation.

The implementation of the modernization agenda requires an increase in competencies and the intellectualization of the economy in conditions of increasing uncertainty in the management situation and systemic risks. The purpose of our research was to analyze the spatial distribution of the intellectual potential of Russian regions and their resilience. At the heart of resilience we consider the following competencies: the ability to train personnel of the highest scientific qualifications (HSQ) and to create and promote innovations. The study of the structure of relations in the educational and innovative sphere was carried out using factor analysis. It was aimed at studying the patterns of changes in the dispersion of economic indicators and assessing the dimension of variables by analyzing correlation matrices and identifying latent factors. The differentiation of regions according to the degree of residency of social systems is presented too. It is based on the balance of the influence of latent factors. It was concluded that it is necessary to pay attention to the development of national scientific schools (that train personnel of HSQ) and to stimulate the development of the entire system of knowledge reproduction, not only in the center, but also in the periphery. Moreover, it is important to coordinate the efforts of all interacting players and systematically approach the existing institutional matrix. This matrix is a system of strategic regulators of the subject of the Russian Federation (strategy, territorial planning scheme, state programs, etc.) in a single portfolio “strategy→ state programs→ budget”.

Recently, in the northern single-industry towns there has been an outflow of the population, while the working-age population is declining mainly. Despite public policies aimed at creating new jobs in single-industry towns, this problem is still the main one. At the same time, the outflow of the disabled population, although it is a natural process for the northern regions, on the contrary it happens very slowly. In order to accelerate it, a state program was created to relocate citizens living in the Far North to regions with favorable climatic conditions. However, due to the lack of budget funds, huge queues began to form from those who wanted to move. In addition, realizing the possibility of obtaining housing in another region at the expense of the state, many northerners took a passive waiting position, which also slowed down the process of restructuring the composition of the population of industrial single-industry towns. The aim of this study is to solve the scientific and practical problem of improving the program for the resettlement of disabled people from the regions of the Far North, including single-industry towns of the Arctic zone, through the introduction of a mechanism of counter-resettlement.

State regulation is a normative set of measures and other actions that the state uses to solve problematic issues in the areas of economics and to correct economic processes.
One such issue is the need to improve the food security of the country's population through sound agricultural protectionism policies.
The basis for food security in any country and region is its own agricultural production. No country can do without food imports, but food self-sufficiency is one of the main provisions of the Russian Food Security Doctrine. The role of the State in addressing the issue of improving the level of food security is to create stable reproduction on the basis of scientifically sound methods and mechanisms used in agriculture not only at the federal but also at the regional level.

The intellectual potential in the Russian Federation has actualized attention to the formation of innovation clusters. For the successful and sustainable development of an innovation cluster on the territory of the Russian Federation, it is fundamentally important to study foreign experience. The article provides an overview of the activities of foreign innovation clusters (using the example of a blockchain industrial park in China), the successful experience of which can be adapted in the Russian Federation. In the analytical part of the study, an analysis of the functioning of regional innovation clusters was carried out (on the example of China). The study identified the positive impact and promotion of transformation and modernization of the real economy through innovation and increasing the competitiveness of industry, and concluded that to implement the strategy of regional innovation development, it is necessary to move from the decentralized construction of innovative cities to the creation of regional innovation centers to further improve the efficiency of the distribution of regional innovation factors. At the same time, the key to the development of regional innovation centers is to create a competitive innovation environment for the territories.

Paper. The current situation requires the definition of a unified system of views on the functioning of regional socio-economic systems in conditions of uncertainty and risks, the development of a new methodology based on the principles of theories of adaptability and sensitivity. The main difference between regional socio-economic systems and other systems is that they consist of active subsystems that carry out targeted activities in accordance with preventive deterministic decisions and are capable of reflection. The ability of regional socio-economic systems to target increases the relevance of processes for responding to and adapting to changes in national macroeconomic parameters and institutional conditions. The approach to analysis of vital activity levels and sensitivities of adaptive regional socio-economic systems is proposed, the method of assessing vital activity and sensitivity is tested on the basis of a research analysis of a synthesized model of socio-economic systems of the regions of the Central Federal District, which forms optimal input parameters of the regional system relative to the given requirements for ensuring the vital activity of a person, society, state with conditions of rapid response and adaptation to changes of national macroeconomic parameters and institutional conditions.

The purpose of the work is to substantiate the expediency of investment in the sphere of waste recycling in Russia, and also to offer practical recommendations contributing to activation of the investment process. As a result of research of structure and dynamics of a parity of formation, recycling, neutralization and disposal of production and consumption waste the urgency of development of ecological enterprise and attraction of investments into the sphere of waste processing is argued. The necessity of use of wastes as secondary raw materials arises from definition of their competitiveness and profitability in the oversaturated market of wastes. The expediency of investment in the sphere of waste management is also caused by the growing volume of waste burial, which damages the ecology of the country. The analysis of the current state of investments in the fixed capital aimed at protection of environment from harmful influence of production and consumption wastes has shown that such volumes of investments are insufficient for liquidation of consequences of "rubbish" crisis. As a result of the study, practical recommendations were proposed to increase investment activity in the sphere of waste management.

The article presents the problems of the power systems of Russia. Problems such as the aging of the existing energy systems, the lack of centralized power supply in remote areas of the country, the high cost of electricity and environmental pollution are highlighted. The article considers the barriers to the development of renewable energy sources as one of the most relevant today ways of solving the selected energy problems of the country. The factors contributing to the accelerated development of renewable energy sources in Russia are given. One of the main barriers to the development of renewable energy sources is their insufficiently studied economic efficiency. The approaches that exist in the scientific world are highlighted for substantiating the economic efficiency of energy facilities. On the basis of the selected approaches, a substantiation method was used, including the monetization of environmental and climatic effects. An assessment of the economic efficiency of three operating power plants is given on the example of the Khabarovsk Territory. The analysis showed that today none of the considered power plants is profitable in the existing market conditions. However, according to the initial technical characteristics, a solar power plant is already the most profitable compared to diesel and coal in decentralized areas. And when included in the carbon monoxide tax calculation, renewable power plants become even more attractive than conventional power plants.

The article is devoted to the study of the impact of tourism on the population of the Sochi resort destination in the context of the problems of the phenomenon of overtourism and the study of the tourist experience gained by visitors to the city. The definitions of the terms "overtourism", "carrying capacity", formulated by the UNWTO, are given. The authors clarify the concept of "capacity" and "perception of capacity"; "conflict", "satisfaction" and "loyalty". The main reason for overtourism is emphasized - the excessive tourist load on the destination. Attention is focused on the growth rates of international tourism, the number of tourist arrivals and the intensity of tourism in a number of European and Russian popular tourist centers in 2019; cases of protest actions of the population against tourist expansion, which increased the attention of experts to the problems of excessive tourism in the world. The results of determining the risk of overtourism in the Sochi resort destination in the before-COVID period are presented. It is concluded that this risk, investigated using different methods, is assessed in the range from "low" to "very high". There has been a significant increase in tourist arrivals in Sochi after the lifting of quarantine restrictions in 2020, as well as in 2021. It is suggested that the threat of the risk of overtourism for the Sochi resort in the period of a pandemic will increase in this connection. The factors that may affect the risk of overtourism in the Sochi tourist destination in the post-COVID period are indicated.

The purpose of the work is to identify the problems and tools of financial support for the main directions of development of housing construction in the region (construction of rental housing and individual housing construction). In the course of the work, the authors used: general scientific methods: comparisons and analogies, analysis and synthesis. As a result of the study of the dynamics of the commissioning of residential buildings, the main indicators of the development of mortgage lending in the Vladimir region, it was concluded that in 2020, the increased availability of mortgages, the low profitability of alternative ways of saving, as well as the deferred needs for the purchase of housing due to the spring "lockdown" led to an increase in demand for it in the second half of 2020 and with limited supply (a decrease in the volume of housing commissioning in the Vladimir region in the second and third quarter of 2020), this caused an increase in prices in the housing construction market. As areas of financing of individual housing construction in the Vladimir region, the need to increase the number of banks that use mortgage lending for the construction of their own homes and reduce the interest rate on this type of lending compared to lending to apartments is determined. As directions for the development of the rental housing market, the authors propose the use of a financial mechanism of public-private partnership, which includes significant financial guarantees for developers in order to ensure the availability of this type of rental housing in comparison with commercial rental in the conditions of technological, institutional and financial constraints in the region. The results obtained can be used by the state authorities of the region in the development of state housing policy, as well as by specialists studying this issue.

The main purpose of this study is to develop approaches to assessing the industrial development of the Arctic territories in conjunction with the financial balances of municipalities.
The paper summarizes the Russian experience in the development of the Arctic territories, starting with the planned economy and ending with modern research in this area. The author proposed to consider the dynamics and directions of the formation of financial flows of municipalities using the methodology of the System of National Accounts. The objects of research were the Yamal municipal district and the city of Novy Urengoy (Yamalo-Nenets Autonomous Okrug), as well as the Turukhansk municipal district of the Krasnoyarsk Territory, since they are in different phases of industrial development.
Calculations of the added value of the Arctic municipalities were carried out on the basis of tables on wages of all territories and regional tables of value added. This made it possible to compare the dynamics and volume of value added in the Arctic territories for 2013-2018. An analysis of value added by types of economic activity has been carried out, which allows both to determine the contribution of industries to the development of municipalities, and to compare the structure of value added at different stages of development of hydrocarbon deposits. The financial balances of municipalities for 2016 were formed, in general for all economic entities, more than 423 billion rubles were withdrawn from the economy of Novy Urengoy, almost 136 billion rubles were withdrawn from the economy of the Turukhansk region, and the Yamal region attracted financial resources in the amount of more than 373 billion rubles.
Based on the results of the work carried out, it was concluded that the public sector is a significant channel for the outflow of financial resources, and the use of the rotational method of attracting workers for the development and operation of oil and gas fields does not allow the territories to “restart” household financial resources into the service sectors.

This study focuses on the need to use state social standards in the system of state regulation of rural development to determine the priorities of rural development policy and monitor the effectiveness of its implementation. The development of rural areas as a subsystem of the country's economy as a whole needs to be modernized. However, despite a number of measures taken in recent years to improve the situation in their development, the scale of their depopulation, social degradation and impoverishment of the population is progressing. At the state level, there should be clearly defined targets and indicators of a decent standard of living for rural residents in the form of social standards of life and life support for rural residents, which are legally fixed. Social standards, being uniform for the entire territory of the country, can also serve as a reference point for the spatial development of Russia, contribute to the alignment of social space, concentrate resources on priority areas of social policy, which will smooth out interregional differentiation, level the level and quality of life of rural residents throughout its territory.

The article analysis of socio-economic development municipalities of the Arctic zone of the Russian Federation (on the example of Arkhangelsk region) since 2010 to 2019. The author substantiated and proposed indicators of socio-economic development municipalities of the Arctic zone of Arkhangelsk region. The author propose to carry out: sociologic development by indicators - population, natural growth, migration growth, the average number of employees in organizations, the number of unemployed, the number of doctors of all specialties, the provision of the population with doctors per 10000 people; economic development by indicators – average monthly nominal accrued wages of employees of organizations, the average amount of assigned monthly pensions, provision of the population with their own cars per 1000 people, housing stock, provision of housing per person. The analysis made it possible not only to determine the drivers of economic development in the Arkhangelsk region as a whole and the territory of the Arctic municipalities in particular, but to identify the problems associated with the optimization of the medical industry and the environment, which led to a decrease in the number of the population for natural reasons, and as a consequence, having a restraining effect on the economic development of the Arctic municipalities of the Arkhangelsk region.

This article examines the investment attractiveness of Russian financial markets during the implementation of the Marketplace project on all trading platforms. The main goal of this work is to study at all levels of the modern state of individual segments of the financial market such as stock, currency (precious metals), monetary and determining the rating of investment attractiveness of the domestic market, particularly at the regional SFO. To achieve this goal, we have studied publications on the digitalization of the financial market by both foreign and domestic authors, and studied institutional and statistical data from the Ministry of Finance of Russia, the Bank of Russia, and Moscow exchange. In the study of the currency market, UN statistics were studied, and in determining the share of Russia's participation in the formation of world GDP, data from world financial institutions were studied.
In the process of analyzing individual segments of the financial market by comparing and comparing statistical data from reviews and collections, the world's TOP 20 largest companies in the stock market for 2019 were identified and investment attractiveness factors were determined. In the domestic stock market, the dynamics of securities issuance by credit institutions for the period 2017-2019 was revealed and also identified the main trends after the 2020 pandemic, taking into account the regional level. When studying the statistics of the currency market and the precious metals market, the reserves of the National Welfare Fund (NWF) were identified and their rating at all levels was determined. The prospects for the development of money markets, which are reflected in the regional budget, are identified on the example of the NSO, as well as the volumes of the deficit (surplus), internal and external public debt. At the last stage of the study, the functions of ESMA – the global regulator of financial markets - in the implementation of the project of transition of financial institutions to a single electronic format for submitting annual financial statements are considered.
The article concludes with the main conclusions on the investment attractiveness of certain segments of the financial market, which also affect the regional aspect.

The article deals with the current state of use of agricultural lands irrigated and drained agricultural lands in the Republic of Buryatia. Most of the agricultural lands privatized in the 1990s (more than 850 thousand hectares) are not used for its intended purpose, in fact, they are abandoned. The share of actually irrigated land is only 39% of the total area of registered irrigated land. According to official statements, over the past five years, the process of reducing the area of agricultural land has been suspended, but it is still too early to talk about the full use of the potential of agricultural land, reclaimed land in the republic. Since 2014, the government of Buryatia has started to introduce a procedure for the seizure of land in the ownership of municipalities, so we can hope that the issues of abandoned lands in the republic will be resolved.

Relevance and objectives of the study. The strengthening of the globalization processes and the spread of new technologies in the world economy are closely interconnected with the trade in objects and intellectual property rights
Currently, the problem of the relationship that is developing in the field of intellectual property is gaining incredible popularity around the world. This is due to new stages in the life of society, characterized by the entry of mankind into a new information era, in which there is a struggle for information in all its manifestations. This struggle has not spared the BRICS countries either. According to experts, the global economy is shifting towards the East, where the economies of the BRICS countries are becoming a new development factor. The economic growth of the BRICS countries can play one of the essential roles in ensuring economic and financial stability at the global level and contribute to the pace and effectiveness of overcoming problems in the functioning of the world economic system.
The aim of the work is to identify the peculiarities of the position of the BRICS countries in the world market for intellectual property objects.
Materials and methods. The World Intellectual Property Organization pays great attention to the protection of intellectual property rights, as well as the related infrastructure problems and the formation of an appropriate attitude towards intellectual property. However, the registration of data on registration of objects of copyright and related rights is not kept by WIPO, identification of the peculiarities of the situation of countries in the world market of intellectual property is carried out on objects of industrial intellectual property.
When writing the work, depending on the characteristics of the tasks being solved, various methods of economic research were used: abstract-logical - when setting the goal and objectives of the research; system analysis - identifying the peculiarities of the position of countries in the world intellectual property market; comparative analysis - when determining the position of countries in terms of industrial intellectual property in the world market and other problems considered in the work; inductive and deductive methods - in identifying the goals of the strategy of developed countries and the BRICS member states to achieve leading positions in the world market for intellectual property objects.
Results. The paper analyzes data on the dynamics of industrial property objects, in particular, patents, trademarks and industrial designs, in each of the countries under consideration; identified the goals of the strategy of developed countries to achieve leading positions in the world market for intellectual property; the position of the leading countries and the BRICS countries in the world market of intellectual property objects was determined.
Findings. It has been established that China, a member of the BRICS, is the undisputed leader in the world market for intellectual property objects, ranking first in all categories: patents, trademarks and industrial designs.
India, a member of the BRICS, closes the top 10 countries in the world market for intellectual property objects. Russia occupies 11th place in the world market of intellectual property objects.
The leading positions are occupied by the most developed countries, which indicates the importance of intellectual property for the competitiveness of enterprises and states in the world market.
An analysis of the dynamics of filing applications for registration of industrial property objects in developed countries showed that the predominant part in almost all of them is occupied by foreign applications, with a large share of applications coming from Chinese residents, which indicates the development of the national R&D system and the use of new technologies in all spheres of the economy.
In the BRICS countries, residents of the countries occupy the largest share in filing applications for registration of industrial intellectual property, which indicates that improving cooperation in this area is carried out through the development of innovations and R&D at the national level.

The article presents a methodological approach to identifying differences in the assessment of administrative and economic barriers between municipalities of the Komi Republic. It is focused on the development of measures to support entrepreneurship at the mesolevel and to reduce existing barriers. The approach is based on the discriminant analysis of municipalities and operating in their territories enterprises in the context of their fields of activity. At the same time, special attention is paid to the Arctic zone. Based on the identified through the discriminant analysis barriers that contribute most to the differences in the estimates between the municipalities, a comparative analysis of municipal formations was carried out; the most typical barriers for enterprises of different spheres and scale of activities, and the peculiarities of the estimates of barriers by the representatives of the Arctic territories were identified. According to the results of the analysis, the areas of the regional authorities’ activities for the development of competition in the municipalities of the Komi Republic are proposed. The materials of the article may be useful for specialists dealing with the problems of public management of the competitive environment in the industrial and consumer markets.

The paper considers the use of econometric models and models of system dynamics to assess changes in the average annual number of people employed in the regional economy of the Yamalo-Nenets Autonomous District, which is one of the key resource-extracting regions of Russia. When using econometric methods, the specified macroeconomic indicator was estimated as the average between its estimated estimates obtained using the combined model of the corresponding time series and the regression model for the time series of macroeconomic indicators that have the greatest impact on the number of employees in the regional economy under consideration. In the system dynamics model, a modification of the method for assessing its key components is carried out, which takes into account the specifics of the region under consideration in the demographic aspect. The calculated values of the number of employed were compared with the corresponding statistical data in the regional context, published by the State Statistics Service.

The article is devoted to the inclusive development of the resource region on the example of the Krasnoyarsk Territory. The relevance of the study is determined by the existing inequality in the distribution of material goods between resource and non-resource regions, which leads to decrease of the quality and standard of living of the population of most regions with specialization on mining. Thus, according to the Life Quality Rating 2020, the Krasnoyarsk Territory ranks only 38th out of 85. At the same time, the region's contribution to the development of the country's economy is significant. This determines the need to apply new indicators for assessing the socio-economic development of the territory, one of which is the indicators of inclusiveness. The purpose of our research is to assess the inclusiveness of a resource region to identify the most "painful" points of its socio-economic development. For this purpose, we propose a system of indicators of inclusive growth, which is based on the "Methodology for assessing the inclusiveness of the economies of the member States of the Eurasian Economic Union" in five areas: "Poverty and inequality", "Economic growth and employment", "Infrastructure", "Education", "Life expectancy and health", adapted to regional development. The author proposes a method for calculating the integral index of inclusiveness at the regional level.

In the system for assessing the sustainable development of the timber industry complex in the region, there is currently no mechanism that would take into account existing companies or, as in a specific case, economic clusters. Accordingly, it is also necessary to take into account the impact on the sustainable development of the region and the influence of this cluster, which is proposed to be done in the article, which provides indicators characterizing the sustainable development of the cluster. The article proposes a system of indicators of sustainable development of the timber industry cluster and forestry complex on the example of the Arkhangelsk region. Further, a complex index of the level of sustainable development of the region is calculated using the method of multidimensional comparative analysis, as a result of which it becomes possible to assess the relevance of supporting the development of the cluster from the point of view of state regional policy, compare the competitiveness of participants and determine the degree of its impact on the sustainable development of the region as a whole.

Development of the Arctic zone regions is closely connected with the geopolitics of the state to provide the population living in the Arctic and in the Far East with the supply of companies operating there and extracting basic resources. The resources that are mined there are precious metals, such as gold, platinum, diamonds and nickel, as well as the major part of oil and gas. Creating a comfortable environment, ensuring good work and decent wages – these are the main criteria for successful development of business and territories with natural resources. First, it refers to the need to strengthen integration processes of territory development on the basis of partnership between business and regions, as the population living there feels discomfort from the impossibility to use modern transport services, telecommunication, information and recreation services. Also, it is necessary to develop educational and medical services, recreation and sports infrastructure. In this article the author analyzes and proposes the concept of development and use of natural resources for the development of the Arctic zone regions. The country's economic development depends on the possibility of expanding production, extraction of precious metals, their use and mineral exploration. It is necessary to organize new production facilities for development of already explored natural resources and carry out new exploration works. It is also important to create transport infrastructure so that people can go there to work, have decent health care and be provided with school and preschool facilities. It would be possible to attract young people to work in the northern territories, but they must be motivated. The Russian Arctic regions have different economic opportunities, so Khanty-Mansiysk and Yamalo-Nenets autonomous areas have huge oil and gas reserves. Yakutia, Magadan Region and Chukotka Autonomous District mine about 30% of gold. The Krasnoyarsk Region extracts over 60 tonnes of gold and has a famous Norilsk Mining and Processing Plant where palladium, nickel, copper and other associated precious metals are mined.
Precious metals mining in the Arctic and Far East regions is one of the main priorities for the territory's development. Most precious metals, such as gold, platinum, palladium and silver are mined here. The main volume of mining of precious metals that replenish the Russia's gold reserve, which reached 2300 tons. This year Russia allowed gold mining companies to sell part of their gold abroad. The Russian gold reserve is aimed at implementing the financial policy of the state and meeting the country's urgent needs in case of emergency situations.

The main priority areas of increasing the competitiveness of agricultural products and diversification of the rural economy are considered in the article as a really feasible mechanism to increase income and employment of the rural population. It is shown that in the territory of the rural population dwelling where the zonal natural and climatic conditions allow producing competitive products with minimal government costs, it is more expedient to use market regulation mechanisms in the agricultural production processes. In absence of such opportunities, mainly state regulation methods are to be there. At the same time, the main task of the state is reduced to expansion of territories where, with appropriate financial support from the state, one can also produce certain types of competitive agricultural products. To increase the efficiency of state regulation at all its levels, it is proposed to form and use a system of collective and personal responsibility to solve the strategic tasks of increasing the competitive agricultural products.

The organization of sustainable forest management is of particular importance in sparsely forested areas, where forest ecosystems are not only a source of production resources, but also perform essential ecological functions. The anthropogenic influence is complex, not only the amount of resources is decreasing, but the ecological conditions of plant growth are also changing. As a result of these processes, the productivity of ecosystems decreases. We have identified the main negative changes in the forest cover of the Altai Territory, which belongs to the West Siberian subtaiga-forest-steppe and Altai-Sayan mountain-taiga vegetation regions. A decrease in the productivity of forests in the first region is associated with irrational felling, forest fires and the impact of pests. Here, the decrease in forest cover is especially evident.

In the modern global world, one of the development trends and priorities for improving the competitiveness of States is environmental responsibility. Russia is ranked 56th out of 180 countries in the international environmental performance rating (EPI) in 2019. The index evaluates the national environmental situation by 24 indicators, as well as by ten categories of environmental health and ecosystem viability of the country. In many ways, this place is due to the lack of use of PR communications while maintaining the reputation of the brand of Russia as an environmentally friendly territory. The Russian Federation does not rationally use the potential of PR communication when informing the international community about the results of positive changes related to the implementation of new environmental programs and projects.

Managing the profitability of the regional economy becomes a key task for all levels of management: operational, tactical, and strategic. The author proposed a method for managing the return on assets by decomposing the return on assets coefficient into factors that reflect various aspects of the regional economy. The article describes the author's methods of factor analysis, which allow you to make a conclusion about changes in the financial position in an accessible and relatively simple way, as well as to assess the degree of influence of factors on changes in the studied indicator. This article reinforces knowledge in the field of economic analysis theory, acquisition of skills in using methods of modeling factor systems, evaluation of the influence of quantitative and qualitative factors on indicators that characterize the final results of activities and their effectiveness. The Filatov model (return on assets Model) allows you to determine which factors caused the change in profitability or make a factor analysis of profitability. The author's transformed methods of factor analysis presented in the article in comparison with the most common traditional methods allow reducing the labor intensity for several iterations by entering the author's comparative coefficients. In addition, the author's methods of deterministic factor analysis complement the process of understanding the functioning of economic systems, revealing the existing economic laws and objectively existing cause-and-effect relationships between the phenomena of economic life. Analysis based on the Filatov model and the use of author's methods of factor analysis for specialists in the field of Economics and management will help them form a base for developing economic thinking, understanding the essence of economic processes and phenomena occurring within the framework of economic entities, and most importantly – developing skills for their quantitative assessment, economic interpretation and search for reserves to improve the efficiency of functioning.

Assessment of the territory's natural and resource potential allows implementing the most rational planning of activities within the territory. Charyshsky District is characterized by unique natural conditions and has high cultural, historical, tourist and recreational potential. In order to conduct a resource assessment of Charyshsky District territory, we developed an algorithm that includes a certain sequence of activities. The suggested algorithm consists of six stages. The first four stages are aimed directly at conducting a resource assessment. The final stages are devoted to the classification of district’s territories based on the values of calculated resource assessment indicators and determination of prospects for the use of specific territories based on the values of their natural resource potential. The last stage was characterized by identification of resource assessment efficiency as management system’s element. Lands were transferred from the category of lands for agricultural use to settlements, specially protected natural areas and industrial lands.

The Russian Federation ranks first in the world in terms of territory being over 17 million square km. The maximal outstretch of the territory in the longitudinal direction is 4 thousand km; in the latitudinal direction, 9 thousand km. This, undoubtedly, has influenced the nature of the population settling and the difficulty in organizing social services for the population living in small and often scattered and remote settlements. Natural-and climatic conditions for agricultural production are also significantly different. All this complicates finding an optimal balance between the market and state methods of regulating macroeconomic processes, including the ones in the agricultural sector of the economy. Unlike other systems and subsystems of socio-economic development of territories, rural territories as an object of state regulating their development have their own characteristics defined by significant regional differences in natural-and climatic conditions and the nature of the rural population settlement.
The article discusses regional features as objects of regulating the processes of socio-economic development of rural areas, priority orientations of this development. The role and importance of rural entrepreneurial ecosystems as one of the main and real mechanisms for increasing income and employment of the rural population has been investigated. By the example of individual factors to increase the agricultural products competitiveness, the need to improve the processes of state regulation is shown, including the one in terms of strengthening collective and personal responsibility for solving complex strategic problems of socio-economic development of rural areas.

The article deals with the experience of social entrepreneurship development in the European Union countries. Our analysis has shown that social entrepreneurship is actively developing and functioning in many socially useful areas, contributes to the effective interaction of fundamentally important areas of the economy in addressing socially important issues. The main activities of social enterprises can be divided into three groups. The first group is focused on providing socially important goods and services, the second group is focused on employment and socialization of people with disabilities, and the third group is focused on addressing broader social issues related to sustainable development goals. Nevertheless, assessment of the overall state of the social entrepreneurship sector is a rather complicated task. This is due to the legal status of social entrepreneurship and the diversity of its organizational and legal forms, which causes certain difficulties in its monitoring.

The classification of Russian regions by the ranks of investment potential and investment risk and their ratio is proposed, which allows us to identify both the most attractive and the most problematic regions, and which can be taken into account when developing development plans and identifying the main indicators of sustainable development. An analysis of the components of the investment potential and investment risk of the industrial regions of Russia shows that the most critical for most of them are social and environmental risks. Consequently, the fundamental basis for increasing investment attractiveness and ensuring the sustainable development of these regions is the optimization of environmental risks and the main specific indicators of their sustainable development can be considered, in particular, indicators characterizing environmental safety and socio-environmental risks of the population. However, at present, there are practically no methods for a quantitative statistically reliable assessment of technogenic socio-environmental risks of harming the health of the population of a particular region, taking into account factors specific to this region. To assess and predict socio-environmental risks, it is proposed to use methods and models of data mining, the construction of which uses data from long-term observations of the state of the environment and statistical data on the health status of the population of these regions.

Regional investment projects (RIP) are implemented in accordance with the strategy of regional development. Such projects have a significant impact on the socio-economic parameters of the region. The federal government is interested in supporting such projects to reduce spatial differentiation. Public resources are limited, so it is necessary to select the most effective RIPs. Correct selection of RIPs determines the effectiveness of support programs.
The article researches the programs of state support of RIPs in the Russian Far East. Development if this macro-region is one of the most important goals for the Russian Government. Consequently, a wide variety of investment support programs have been launched in the Russian Far East. Funding support programs have been analyzed in terms of project selection methodology. As a result, the shortcomings of these methodologies have been identified.
The article suggests a methodology based on forming a portfolio of RIPs. The advantage of this methodology is increasing the effectiveness of support programs. Hence, using of this methodology increases the probability of achieving the planned socio-economic indicators, that the government relies on while providing funding for RIPs.

The article considers methodological approaches to the transition to the extraterritoriality of providing social services and the impact of digital initiatives on ensuring the availability and efficiency of pension provision.
Based on a comparative analysis of the principles and methods of providing social services, the advantages and disadvantages of the experience of implementing standard digital platforms, the authors substantiate the possibility of implementing elements in the field of pension provision that allow for personal and operational communication of providers and consumers of pension services without reference to the territorial aspect.
To move to an extraterritorial format for providing pension services, it is necessary to use artificial intelligence to create the necessary conditions for the development and implementation of modern technologies; to create conditions for increasing the income and quality of life of the population; to change the structure and quality of pension services.
The results of the research can be implemented in the practice of state and non-state systems of providing pension services both in the traditional format and in the post-pandemic period.

Local self-government is characterized on the one hand by the expansion of local issues and on the other - by the lack of tax and non-tax revenues to solve them. Decisions taken at the Federal and regional levels have a significant impact on the development of the municipal economy. This dependence is even more pronounced in closed administrative-territorial formations (CATF). In recent years, there has been an evolution of forms of state support for the socio-economic development of the COUNTRY. This article analyzes and proposes comprehensive measures to increase the competitiveness of the local economy and its structural diversification, improve living conditions through sustainable development of the CITY and the emergence of new quality services for people, to form an open system of urban resource management using digital technologies and the transition to new quality standards. This is possible when using all possible tools of Federal support, as well as the adoption of changes to Tax legislation.

The article proposes a methodology for analyzing the mobilization capabilities of high sensitivity systems. The methodology includes a comparative analysis and a process of modeling a synthesized model of socio-economic systems of a number of regions of the Central Federal District, taking into account the mutual influence of social, economic, technological, political and other regional subsystems in order to solve the problems of preserving basic vital values in the conditions of changing national macroeconomic parameters and institutional conditions. Properties of systems previously undescribed in the scientific literature have been investigated, such as: trigger behavioral effect, unity and continuity of economic relations, network emergence. The principle of "perseveration of sustainable development" is proposed.
Paper. The international community recognizes that there is currently no alternative to sustainable development. Moreover, there is currently no single methodology for measuring and predicting sustainable development at the regional level. Today, the issue of interdisciplinary description and interaction for discussion of scientific problems of sustainable development is acute. In this regard, the aim and subject of the article was to find and analyse the scientific foundations of the design and management of sustainable development in the regions. The methodological basis of scientific research is the methodology of project management of sustainable development in terms of aggregated values of parametric management of systems. The algorithm of regulation of methodological tools of assessment by the socio-economic system of the region from the point of view of its sensitivity to external influences is proposed. New properties of systems characterized by increased sensitivity and reaction have been identified, such as: trigger behavioral effect, unity and continuity of economic relations, network emergence. The graphic principle of "perseverers" and the hypothesis of "perseverance of sustainable development" are proposed.

The implementation of strategic planning processes in the constituent entities of the Russian Federation occurs with a high level of differentiation, documents on strategic development are not given in a single template, which makes it difficult to unify the system of indicators characterizing the socio-economic development of a particular region. The work has proved that the strategies of the Central Federal District entities need to be updated, and the technological route for implementing social and economic development measures requires significant refinement in the methodological plan. In view of this circumstance, the second article proposes an organizational and economic mechanism for implementing the development strategy of the region, which allows solving geographical issues of placing the production of the specialization industry and is convenient for understanding potential users, reflecting the main stages of the strategy development process. it was concluded that the development strategy of the region should be integrated with the provisions of the relevant document on strategic planning at the federal level and be a logical continuation of the generally accepted methodological structures of space strategy.

The purpose of the study was to analyze and evaluate the effectiveness of methods and financial tools for supporting and stimulating green economy projects used in the world practice. The article highlights the features of the system of state support and incentives for foreign countries that pursue an active policy in the field of environmental protection and stimulating innovation in the field of "green" economy. The leading role of States in supporting environmental programs is defined and the problems of restraining the "green" growth of the world economy are highlighted. It is shown that elements of the Russian system of support for eco-projects correspond to world practice, and the system itself is at an early stage of development. The assessment of the effectiveness of the Russian system of support and stimulation of the "green" economy did not reveal an adequate model for the dependence of pollutant emissions on the state policy, but the decoupling analysis on indicators of pollutant emissions and economic growth showed the presence of a decoupling effect on the emissions of air pollutants and the volume of wastewater discharge, which indicates the effectiveness of a set of methods and tools of environmental and economic policy of the state, but the absence of the decoupling effect in terms of waste production and consumption speaks about the problems with this area.

There are many theories, opinions and researches about influence of factors fluctuations on food prices, including essential goods. Will food prices and the Russian economy as a whole change with the growth of the USD and the corresponding drop in the ruble exchange rate, and if so, how much? The problem is the diversity of opinions and facts, so it is difficult to give an unequivocal answer to this question. In modern economic conditions, price is becoming the leading market category, as well as the most important indicator of the population's standard of living. We can say that in market conditions, prices for goods and services determine the purchasing power of the population as a whole. Most important economic decisions are made under the influence of prevailing market prices. In this article provides a regression analysis of consumer prices for food products from 2016 to 2020. So, the purpose of this article is to analyze the factors that affect consumer prices for food products in the Perm region.

Structural changes in agriculture of the Volgograd region are analyzed and their economic assessment is given. The increase in the production of certain types of agricultural products did not lead to an adequate increase in the provision of producers with financial resources. So in 2016 the level of profitability in agricultural enterprises was 30.9%, then in 2017, 2018 and 2019 it decreased to 20.2%, 19.7% and 21.7%, respectively. For this reason, their profit from economic activities in 2019 compared to 2016 decreased by 13.9%, while revenue from sales of products in current prices increased by 17.0%. In this regard, it becomes necessary to develop and master a regional program of specialization and concentration of agricultural production, as well as additional measures to increase the competitiveness of food products when selling them in the domestic and international markets.

The purpose of this research is to analyze approaches to the interpretation of the term "socially-oriented non-profit organizations" and their analysis as subjects of the regional economy. International practice and experience of existing socially-oriented nonprofit organizations shows that the most significant social effect of their activities is achieved through: the use of new technologies; ensuring financial stability; scalability of the results achieved; transparency of operations; and honesty of managers and employees. The authors have shown that the Russian non-profit sector is now an active participant in the social and economic process, which is not only at the federal level but also at the regional level, because socially- oriented non-profit organizations take part in the regional reproduction process, contribute to the implementation of civil initiatives in the region, promote charitable and volunteer activities in the region and implement socially important regional projects. The authors present the aspects of the characteristics of socially-oriented organizations in the context of the regional economy.

The Arctic is a complex geographical area to govern sustainably due to strong geopolitical and socio-economic interests, high ecological vulnerability and importance, and significant legal and institutional fragmentation. Intensifying human pressures in this area necessitate an ecosystem-based and adaptive governance approach, an approach that enables managing socio-ecological resilience in the Arctic. As the Arctic is a large geographic area crossing multiple national jurisdictions and maritime zones, including high seas areas, regionally coordinated and coherent governance approaches would be desirable.
The purpose of this article is to examine the issue of ecosystem management in the Arctic in light of the potential implications of the ongoing negotiations on a new global treaty on the conservation and sustainable use of biodiversity in areas beyond national jurisdiction for the management of Arctic ecosystems. The new approach to managing the Arctic is not straightforward, given that much of the Arctic is located in areas beyond national jurisdiction. The article explores the problems and options for formulating an effective ecosystem approach to the conservation of Arctic biodiversity against the backdrop of diverging negotiating positions on the role of the global compact in filling gaps in governance and regulation; on the role of regional and sectoral bodies in the implementation of global rules; and in reviewing the work done in the context of the Arctic Council on the ecosystem approach. The ecosystem approach formulated by the Arctic Council is analyzed and some of the problems associated with its implementation are outlined and various options for solving such problems are considered.

The article discusses the stages of the development of the urban environment from industrial cities to smart cities in the context of the formation of a digital urban environment and the introduction of digital technologies in various areas of urban economy. The purpose of this study is to structure the stages of digitalization of urban space. The analyzed data were scientific studies reflected in the periodical press, as well as the author's results in the study of the digitalization processes of modern cities. The research method is a systematic logical analysis of the various stages of digitalization and the development directions of modern cities. As a result of the study, four stages of urban development are identified, their significant differences are shown in the context of digitalization of the urban environment, their main features are identified in the framework of the formation of a digital society. The paper substantiates that the basis for the development of modern cities is industrial cities, which represent the infrastructure for the development of post-industrial agglomerations. Informatization of society has significantly transformed the urban environment, making it possible to develop informational, and later digital and smart cities. The paper notes that different types of cities require different approaches to management due to their economic, social, infrastructural and other features. The main difference between the post-industrial type of cities is the use of advanced digital technologies for the most efficient organization of economic activity. Based on digital innovations, new tools for socio-economic interactions are being formed, such as digital platforms, social networks, crowdsourcing platforms, etc. Such innovations are actively being introduced into the city management system, involving the population in decision-making processes. It is shown that the stages of digitalization of the urban environment are nested sets, each of which includes other technologies and socio-economic models of interactions. It is concluded that the development based on digital technologies is one of the most effective areas for solving the problems of modern cities.

The modern reform of control and surveillance activity determines the main direction of verification measures addressed to persons engaged in unscrupulous entrepreneurial activity, thereby reducing the administrative weight on conscientious entrepreneurs. The modern essence of the principle of conscientiousness is set out in paragraphs 3 and 4 of Art. 1 of the Civil Code of the Russian Federation: in establishing, exercising and protecting civil rights and in the performance of civil duties, participants in civil relations must act in conscientiousness. No one has the right to take advantage of his illegal or unfair behavior. The application of the “conscientious” criterion in relation to enterprises engaged in foreign economic activity is due to the transition of customs authorities to the implementation of a subject-oriented model of a risk management system. In October 2017, the Charter of Conscientious Participants in Foreign Economic Activity was signed in Russia, where Russian and foreign legal entities and individual entrepreneurs conducting their business in the field of foreign economic activity (hereinafter FEA), said on the establishment of bona fide forms of carrying out their foreign economic activity, as well as interaction with partners, contracting parties and government bodies. The categorization system of the Federal Customs Service of Russia is set up in such a way, that the fewer violations the organization makes, the higher the probability of classifying it as a low-risk category. At present, the categorization of participants in foreign economic activity is carried out in industry and automated form. Moreover, the main number of participants in foreign economic activity of a low risk level is determined using an automated categorization form.

The article presents the results of a survey of entrepreneurs operating in regional forestry systems from the perspective of assessing the effectiveness of forest management in Russia. It has been established that the activity of more than half of the number of entrepreneurs surveyed in forestry is low profitable. Entrepreneurs incur significant reforestation and forestry costs. The reasons for the low efficiency of activities in forestry are the lack of support measures for entrepreneurs implemented at the state level. The necessity of forming a set of measures to support entrepreneurs is proved.
A mechanism for supporting tenants of forest plots, built into the forest management system, is proposed. The mechanism is a whole complex of work, incentive and control nature, aimed at ensuring the high-quality implementation of activities in the framework of forestry activities, with optimal production costs. The use of the mechanism at the regional level makes it possible to provide support to tenants of forest plots that perform quality forestry operations.
Differentiated measures of motivation for forest users based on the results of forestry operations are justified. Measures include financial support, business oversight, and penalties. The necessity of creating forest funds in the regions of Russia for the financial support of forest tenants has been proved.

Over the past ten to fifteen years, digital services have been actively developing in the system of providing insurance services on the Russian market. If you compare the late nineties of the twentieth century and the zero years of the twenty-first century, insurers used not funded form of insurance for citizens and legal entities, as required (e.g. insurance) and voluntary insurance (e.g. property insurance), which did not require serious integration of information and digital services. During this period, the consolidation of non-state pension funds was just beginning. Systems of compulsory medical, pension, and personal insurance (for example, workers ' insurance against accidents at work) required a lot of state support and regulation. The regulations of the mandatory medical insurance Fund (Federal and its territorial divisions) were formed only with the adoption of the law "on mandatory medical insurance in the Russian Federation", and the development of digitalization of its work and the digitalization of other participants in medical insurance in Russia continues today. Over the past few years, the sector of accumulative and investment insurance has started to grow rapidly, for which it is very important not only to develop digital platforms for interacting with customers, but also to attract citizens to conclude insurance contracts. However, with all the innovations in the insurance sector, insurance in the Far Eastern Federal district is currently experiencing great difficulties related to the redistribution of insurance premium flows in favor of the Central part of Russia.

The world economy with its resource potential is part of a complex, open single global socio-economic world system. The prices of the resources of the world economy as a whole, as well as of each individual country, determine world economic growth of varying degrees of intensity. This article provides an empirical assessment of the dependence of investments and private consumption of commodity exporting countries on the volatility of world commodity prices, which is extremely important for interpreting the current state of the world economy and forecasting future potential. The results of empirical analysis showed that rising world prices for raw materials limit investment, and this applies both to industrial countries and countries with lower incomes; in most cases, we found a negative dependence on the price index, which was combined with a similar reaction to its volatility. In the studied countries, a predominantly inverse relationship was found between the increase in world prices for raw materials and private consumption.

In the context of the digitalization of the economy, the subjects of the Russian Federation have problems of their innovative and investment development. The main problems are related to the insufficient number of strategic development programs for the regions, the shortage of highly qualified personnel, and the low investment attractiveness of the regions. In this regard, the need for transformation of the regional economy, namely the development of territories of advanced social and economic development (TASED), becomes obvious. Territories of advanced social and economic development are created in order to create favorable conditions for attracting investment, ensuring development and creating comfortable conditions for the life of the population.

In recent years, a clear tendency has appeared for curtailing the production of milk and meat at the rural population households which leads to decline in these products self-sufficiency among the rural population. Following the decline in real incomes of the rural population this trend aggravated the problem of physical and economic accessibility of the rural population to the nutritionally most significant products in many regions of the country. At the state level, a socially significant problem of food supply to the rural population was identified. In this regard, it is proposed for the system of food security of the rural population to be dealt with separately in the current system of food supply to the population of the country. The structure of the system of socio-economic development of the rural territories that exists in the research methods and includes economic, social and environmental blocks should additionally include the fourth block (subsystem) - food security of the rural population.

The author describes the role of global problems in global economic relations, which are changing rapidly in the active world that affects the structure of global problems. This process is ongoing: in the course of it, some global problems lose their former importance and are reduced to the level of regional in scale and private in importance and the importance of others, on the contrary, increases. Moreover, new global problems are constantly arising and conceptualizing and some of them grow (upon reaching global, planetary proportions) from regional and private problems, the danger of which was underestimated, at one time. Others arise as a response of the system to sharp changes in its development accompanied by inevitable distortions, errors, miscalculations, modernization, carried out through the destruction and breaking of previous structures and etc. All this creates a kind of cycle of global problems in nature, which makes it difficult to identify and classify them. In the present article, the concept of classification of global problems of the Arctic in the system of world economic relations of the world. The author proposed a methodological approach and its classification of global problems of the Arctic.

For Russia, with its variety of climatic, geographical, national religious, socio-economic characteristics of the regions where the government and society operate in the markets for addictive goods at the regional and local levels, this is an actual field of economic research. The purpose of the article is to develop a methodology for assessing the state and development of regional markets for addictive goods. We used methods of expert assessments, analysis, synthesis, analogy, comparison, monographic, indicative, statistical. The competitive model of the functioning of the Russian markets for addictive goods does not allow focusing on government tasks in government regulation. Russia is building a regulatory model based on economic interests. In the Scandinavian countries close in consumption patterns, at the national level, a state monopoly model with the leading role of public authorities in the field of health and social policy is effectively functioning, projects are unifying the government, business, youth, parents, the media, and efforts are focused on demand regulation. It is recommended to build in Russia a model of local regulation similar to the Finnish PAKKA. In the domestic practice of public administration of regional addictive markets there is no systematic assessment of the socio-economic consequences of their functioning. For state authorities for the rating assessment of the state and development of the alcohol situation in the regions, a methodology has been developed and tested that includes social and economic indicators. For its regular use, it is recommended to increase the transparency of information collected by public authorities, to develop consumer behavior research by independent organizations in the field of social, political and marketing surveys.

The purpose of the work was to study the prospects for the development of industrial tourism in the old industrial region and develop approaches to its organization on the example of the Tula region. We used the survey method by conducting semi-structured interviews with experts associated with the organization of industrial tourism, SWOT analysis of the development of industrial tourism in the region, the EFAS form for analyzing strategic environmental factors, the scenario method, as well as a survey of potential consumers of industrial tourism services. The research has shown that old industrial regions with rich cultural and historical heritage can use it to create a comprehensive tourist product that is of the greatest interest to the modern consumer. The tourist product must include both existing businesses and other cultural objects, such as museums. For the success of industrial tourism in the region, active assistance from regional authorities and the availability of educational institutions that train personnel for tourism and hospitality are important factors. Promising directions of industrial tourism development have been identified for the Tula region and a model of its organization has been proposed.
