Problem statement and its connection with important scientific and practical tasks. In modern conditions the problem of economic security as part of national security, is characterized by the need of strengthening, which is updated not only at the level of individual entities, but also at the level of markets or industries.These industries include machine building that constitutes high-tech and knowledge-intensive industries, and the effective functioning of which depends on the rate of technological progress, the growth of social production and the country's defense.The problems of protecting national interests in the most important areas of engineering gain increasing importance due to the lack of innovation and investment activity in industry and the reduction of financial resources, low level of the domestic market with domestic products and its high energy content.Analysis of recent research and publications. The question of the nature of economic security, its
Introduction. Over recent years, Ukraine has made considerable efforts in shaping the current state policy for the development of regions, where priority development of the territories is a further reformation of the system, which together will ensure the country's economic growth. Therefore, it is precisely today that has never before been given special attention to the European innovation concept of the development of regions on the basis of smart specialization.
Aim and tasks. The purpose of the article is to study the peculiarities of the smart specialization approach to the development of the policy of regional development of Ukraine, namely: 1) studying the concept of smart specialization, its principles and essence; 2) determining the boundaries specialization as a tool in the development of the region; 3) development of recommendations based on the use of analytical methods to identify potential priority areas of smart specialization.
Results. The article analyzes smart-specialization, as an instrument of regional development, allows to integrate the key aspects of vital functions and development and instrumental in an active collaboration and co-operation of different participants of process of development for the sake of creation of general prospect, and also foresees creation of unique resources and possibilities on the basis of unique industrial, of a particular branch structures and proper base of knowledge. The use of smart-specialization, as to the instrument of development of regions, is regulated four simple rules: choice and critical mass; competitor advantage; interconnection and clusters; general management, - that behave to the sphere of researches and innovations which are also used in other spheres, and in particular to social, economic, protective environment and others like that.
Conclusions. For Ukraine, implemented models of smart specialization is an urgent task, and on its basis it is possible to unlock the regional potential for structural and technological changes, as well as industrial modernization of innovative principles. This is important in terms of overcoming the destructive tendencies of conservation of the inefficient economic structure of the regions of Ukraine based on the artificial identification of certain industrial regions as priority.
The role of human capital in the innovative development of the Ukrainian economy, which is formed through investment in the human being, is investigated. It is determined that an indispensable condition for sustainable development of the country is the implementation of the strategy of increasing the quality of human capital, which is actively involved in innovation processes and serves as a key resource for improving the competitiveness of the national economy. Emphasis is placed introduction of the model "lifelong learning" using modern technologies. A methodological approach to determining the level of innovative development of human capital is proposed and the value of the integral index of innovative development of human capital is calculated. The innovative-investment model of human capital development in the conditions of globalization is developed and the directions are defined. To overcome the problems of inefficient development of human capital and to improve its quality, a set of measures will be proposed that will contribute to the innovative development of the economy. The scientific novelty is to deepen theoretical provisions and to develop scientific and practical recommendations for improving the quality of human capital and its innovative development in the context of accelerating globalization processes.
