Article Sidebar
Main Article Content
Abstract
The article is devoted to a research of a role of industrial policy in regional development and contains a list of the main measures for carrying out structural transformations in the former Soviet Union. The theoretical analysis of variety of approaches confirms the existence of unfair competition and proves the necessity of further empirical researches for assessment of efficiency of industrial policy. Use of complexity, limited rationality and social and economic dynamics provides application of cross-disciplinary approach. Process of reforming in regions depends on success of industrial policy which includes use of various measures, in particular, of support of national producers (granting subsidies, applications of protectionism in various branches and others). Researches of interrelation of trade and economic growth demonstrate the existence of correlation between growth rates of trade and indicators of an economic environment in regions. The assessment of regional imbalances is defined by indicators of a gross regional product per capita, regional employment and expenses for education.
