Tools For Strategic Development Of The Far East

Abstract

The social and economic development of the territory is largely determined by the effectiveness of the use of spatial planning tools in the development and implementation of regional development strategies. Special attention is paid in the article to the analysis of the practices of the application of program methods and tools of strategic development for the Russian Far East, as well as to the identification of the reasons why the implementation of the specified parameters, targets of the macroregion development programs in full was not achieved. The hypothesis is put forward that the socio-economic situation of the territory depends on the effective use of strategic regional development tools. The duality of the influence of state programs on the regional development of the Far East, the inconsistency of spatial development models with national and regional strategic priorities is shown. A retrospective analysis of the concepts of the spatial development of the Russian Far East for socio-economic alignment is presented. The problems with an effective goal-setting system in state programs and with violation of the unshakable requirements of the SMART principle are identified. The mechanism of long-term planning laid down in government programs did not give the necessary response, unlike strategic planning, which takes into account the dynamism of the external environment. An ambiguous approach to the organizational and financial management mechanism was criticized, which, with the necessary degree of centralization, would coordinate the goals of functioning and development of business entities, control the distribution of resources between subprograms.
