The mechanism for managing the balanced development of the region

Abstract

The relevance of the problem of balanced regional development in modern Russia is due to a combination of factors: increased geopolitical pressure, structural imbalances in the economy, and growing demands for the quality of life. The effectiveness of regional governance is directly reflected in the pace of socio-economic development. Currently, there is a conceptual gap between the declared goals of regional development and the actual practice of governance. Despite the recognition of the importance of a strategic approach, many regions face challenges of inconsistent actions by authorities, businesses, and society, inefficient use of resources, and a lack of comprehensive solutions. Despite the diversity of scienti fic approaches, there is currently no unified system for managing the balance of regional development. This methodological uncertainty leads to significant differences in the practice of managing the socioeconomic development of territories. The purpose of the study is to develop and substantiate theoretically a comprehensive mechanism for managing the balanced development of a region that meets modern challenges. The mechanism is characterized by the integration of all its elements into a single management system that ensures coherence between different levels of government, the participation of business and civil society, adaptation to changing external conditions, and the achievement of targeted socio-economic development indicators.
