Abstract

The article discusses the main approaches to the definition of a relatively new term for economic science – economic resilience of territories. The author made an attempt to assess the level of economic resilience of the regions of Belarus on the basis of the 2015–2016 recession resistance index. and the index of recovery of economic dynamics in the post-recession period (2017–2019). This is the first time an analytical work of this level has been carried out in Belarus. It has been established that the central regions of the country – Minsk and the Minsk region - have high economic resilience. The author outlines the prospects for the use and methodological problems of assessing the economic resilience of regions in statistical science.
