“…The paper [40] studies the inclusive development of 16 Russian resource regions, using an adapted version of the indicators proposed by the Asian Development Bank. A more recent study [41] develops a regional inclusive development index that is also close to the proposal of the Asian Development Bank and shows a gap of 2.6 between the most inclusive region (Moscow) and the least inclusive one (the Republic of Tuva). Comparing the results of the only study that uses the WEF at a regional level [41] with those achieved in this paper reveal similar trends.…”

“…The authors suggest that the position of each region in the rankings can be explained by the effectiveness of regional policy and the particularities of the development of mineral resources. A more recent study [41] develops a regional inclusive development index, which is close to the proposal of the Asian Development Bank, based on four blocks: economic growth and its opportunities, poverty and inequality, social inclusion intergenerational equality, and sustainability. This study shows a gap of 2.6 between the most inclusive region (Moscow) and the least inclusive one (the Republic of Tuva).…”

Regional Inclusive Development: An Assessment of Russian Regions

The concept of inclusive development is gaining momentum in both the academic and policy-making arenas. There are a plethora of definitions and several indicators with which to monitor its progress at the national level. However, the regional level has been relatively overlooked in the analyses carried out by academics. This is particularly serious for large countries marked by deep regional disparities. The aim of this paper is to address this gap by proposing and applying a framework to assess inclusive development at the regional level. Drawing on a critical analysis of the concept and existing indexes, the paper proposes an index of Regional Inclusive Development and applies it to the regions of the Russian Federation. Moreover, it compares the suggested index with established indicators of regional socio-economic development, namely quality of life and gross product. The results support the idea that at the regional level, there is a significant correlation and interdependence between all dimensions of the sustainable development concept—environment, the economy, and society—and that inclusiveness should not be ignored or undervalued in the analysis of development processes. Furthermore, the results show significant differences in the positioning of the regions in terms of the inclusive development rankings as compared to their positions in the quality of life and gross product rankings. The results also reveal small interregional differences among Russian regions, which are unexpected given the size of the country.

“…This result does not support the findings of Yu (2022) and Zhang et al (2021). The probable reason could be that the interregional difference in GRP in Russia is very high, and high capita GRP does not necessarily mean inclusive development of the region (Mikheeva, 2020). The impact of the share of small companies on the new specialization industry does not support the findings of Hannah and Kay (1977).…”

The purpose of this article is to assess how internal and external complementarity linkages are responsible for the emergence of new specialization industries in the context of Russian regions in the period from 2005 to 2015, taking into account other factors that are significant for the emergence of such industries. The internal complementary linkages are measured by the share of new specialization industries related to existing specialization industries in the same region. External complementarity linkages are measured by the share of new specialization industries related to existing specialization industries in neighboring regions. Our data show that internal and external complementarity linkages have a strong positive effect on the emergence of new specialization industries, with a greater effect had by external ones. The number of specialization industries, the number of employees, market potential, gross domestic expenditure on research and development (R&D), domestic patent applications, working population with a higher education, and the distance from the administrative center of a region to the nearest million‐plus city also influence the emergence of new specialization industries, while gross regional product (GRP) per worker, the share of companies using the internet, and special economic zones do not. In addition, we assess the models that predict beginning of the process of diversification in a region. Finally, some policy measures are suggested for the creation of new specialization industries for Russia.
