Pyramid of Factors of Regional Socio-Economic Development

https://doi.org/10.32609/0042-8736-2013-2-121-131

Abstract

Basing on synthesis of earlier conducted research of regional development trends and factors the author offers a model of hierarchy of factors, similar to Maslow’s hierarchy of needs. The proposed pyramid shows that federal regional policy is needed when there is a significant difference in basic factors (e.g. underdeveloped infrastructure). The regional grass-roots policy becomes essential when the regional development starts to depend more on such factors as creativity of the population. The author concludes that in today’s Russia the regional policy from the top is of high priority.
