“…«The number of countries with a national development plan has more than doubled, from about 62 in 2006 to 134 in 2018. More than 80 per cent of the global population now lives in a country with a national development plan» [18].…”

This article addresses the phenomena of sustainable development of national economies driven by global inconsistency between nature resource intensive material production and severely limited natural resources. As a result, there is an increasing need for transition to global environmentally sound production. The article tests out the hypothesis about the mixed revolutionary and evolutionary nature of the sustainable development of the Russian economy. This type of sustainable development implies considerable fluctuations of its level depending on the scale and intensity of innovation activities. The results of the factor research and comparative cross-country analysis of the integral stability of the Russian economy are presented. The article provides the rationale for using more differentiated factors to rate national economies by the level of their dynamic sustainability. Dynamic sustainability factors that were identified made it possible to rate Russia’s economy among other national economies by the level of its sustainable development. The article suggests causes for the potential decrease in the sustainability of the Russian economy in the context of the deployment of the ‘Industry 4.0’ global production and technology platform. It also sets out conditions as well as measures to reduce the risks of considerably unbalancing functional systems of the Russian economy.

“…This initiative action is relevant to community vision on economic-agricultural and education-human resource development. Development plan is vital for rural development as it provides development pathway (Battaglia et al, 2019;Leekwa-Teemane Local Municipality, 2014), need identification to achieve goals (Shapiro, n.d.), weakness analysis (Mikovits et al, 2018), new environment challenge response (Chimhowu et al, 2019), clear ways to achieve goals (Government of the Sultanate of Oman, 2016; Shapiro, n.d.), preparation process and decision making guidance (Bakır et al, 2018;Filho et al, 2019), development areas prioritization (Mouzughi et al, 2014), tools, techniques, ways to develop determinant strategy (SMS Research & Marketing Services, Inc., 2010), coordinated efforts guidance (Apanavičienė & Šalnienė, 2010;Pea, n.d.) and assurance (Conroy & Berke, 2004).…”

Rural development is a social process. It involves local community in all stages of development. Community dialog is a means for facilitating community involvement in determining a development direction, potential development plan and development sus-tainability in the future. Frequently, local community is considered as the development target. This position puts them just being development watchers, spectators, silent and passive recipients. Moreover, these silent roles make them remain unempowered since they do not know how to determine their future, how to take part in collective decision and feel being neglected. This study examines potentials of community involvement in dialog. A qualitative research paradigm is adopted. The data are collected byrecording, transcribing and analyzing community dialog at Klagen, Nganjuk, Jawa Timur. The study finds that community dialog offers considerable potentials. The first potential of community dialog is generating local community commitment, awareness, sense of belongingness and supportive character to build their own homeland. These positive development psychological states,characters and ethos are soft human dimensions which can be critical drivers in rural development. The second is creation of local knowledge and scientific knowledge joint enabling innovation and collective learning process. This joint-knowledge allows the combination of local wisdom and scientific insight. The third is building shared or collective development vision and plan. This plan and vision allow the development prioritizing process and development of rural strength, potential competitive advantage and resource building. The fourth is expanding rural networking and exercising rural people capacity to build wider internal and external social relationship.

“…Various studies have attempted to fill the gaps in our understanding of the governance systems required for the SDGs and the challenges countries face in improving their governance performance and effectiveness. These studies have mainly focused on defining governance challenges (Allen et al 2018;Bowen et al 2017;Stafford-Smith et al 2017) and the institutional conditions necessary for the implementation of the SDGs at the national and local levels (Biermann et al 2017;Chimhowu et al 2019;Fenton and Gustafsson 2017;Gustafsson and Ivner 2018;Biermann et al 2017) set out several broad institutional conditions for the implementation of the SDGs from the global level to the local level that include adapting global ambitions to national circumstances and priorities. Allen et al (2018) identified the key gaps in implementing the SDGs, which include assessment of interlinkages, trade-offs, and synergies between targets, and policy evaluation and design, by analyzing 26 countries' efforts.…”

“…While the literature on developing a systematic approach to governance system analysis for the SDGs is sparse, there have been attempts to understand the governance systems that can contribute to achieving the SDGs by systematically evaluating the planning system (Cumming et al 2017;Chimhowu et al 2019). Chimhowu et al (2019) analyzed 107 new national development plans based on their type and content, categorized them into various functional classifications, and identified their implications for the implementation of the sustainable development agenda.…”

“…The majority of the literature on the implementation of the SDGs has focused on approaches to policy development, implementation, and practice, including evidence-based approaches (Schmidt-Traub et al 2017) and science-based approaches (Allen et al 2016), with little focus on approaches to governance. Of the few existing studies on national governance for the SDGs, most are based on reviews of previous studies and national experiences in implementing past initiatives (Allen et al 2018;Chimhowu et al 2019;Fenton and Gustafsson 2017;Gustafsson and Ivner 2017), scenario forecasting using existing governance indicators (Joshi et al 2015), and/or examinations of global research programs such as Future Earth and a series of international workshops (Bowen et al 2017;Biermann et al 2017;Stafford-Smith et al 2017).…”

Analysis of national and local governance systems to achieve the sustainable development goals: case studies of Japan and Indonesia

2019

To achieve the sustainable development goals (SDGs), all countries' efforts are essential, and each country needs to recognize their level of achievement in terms of the SDGs, identify the goals and targets that require more effort, and build more effective and well-performed governance systems to accelerate their efforts toward achieving the SDGs. This study identifies different governance system structures for achieving the SDGs and the challenges they face in improving their performance using a new matrix tool to evaluate governance systems for the SDGs. We use Japan and Indonesia as case studies to provide perspectives from countries at different levels of economic development. The results show that the governance systems for the SDGs are structurally and functionally different in the two countries, which face different challenges. Japan has relatively well-structured "vision and objective setting", "research and assessment", and "strategy development", but faces challenges in relation to "implementation" and "monitoring, evaluation, and review", while Indonesia has relatively well-structured "research and assessment", "strategy development", and "monitoring, evaluation, and review." However, Indonesia faces challenges in relation to "vision and objective setting" and "implementation." We found that the differences in the governance systems for the SDGs have arisen in relation to three key elements: differences in the development of governance systems for the SDGs, differences in the lead ministries, and the existence or otherwise of a supportive legal framework. We argue that the proposed matrix tool is useful in identifying the structure of governance systems for the SDGs and the challenges that must be overcome to improve the performance of these systems. However, some analytical limitations must be overcome before the tool can be applied to other countries.
