Methods for Substantiating Indicators in the System for Controlling the Balance of Socio-Economic Development of Regions
Abstract
One of the dominant trends of the territorial development is seen as strengthening of imbalances, increase in the interregional differentiation, uneven distribution of capacity growth. The existing situation displays weakness of the mechanisms of the system for regulating the regional development, distortions towards the market mechanisms of regional development, necessity to improve the regional policies, mechanisms for ensuring the balanced development of regions, aimed at improving efficiency in the use of scarce resources, accelerating the return of the system to the trajectory of equilibrium growth. Among the main functional tasks for such mechanisms, the task of substantiation of a system of indicators for the socio-economic development of regions has been allocated. So far the issues of evaluating the informativeness of indicators, studying the sustainability of the system of diagnostic signs in the dynamics have remained underexplored. The publication proposes an algorithm, which is based on synthesis of the methods of principal components as well as canonical correlations, allowing to conduct analysis of the spatiotemporal variations of signs, structure of their relations, which increases the validity of the choice of indicators for monitoring in the system for controlling the balance of socio-economic development of regions
