Abstract:
The article is devoted to the implementation of the concept of "smart specialization" of regions for the purposes of sustainable development of the Russian Federation. The purpose of the study is to justify making adjustments to the issues of strategic planning and territorial management at the federal level for the effective implementation of the principles of smart specialization in the regions. The current macroeconomic conditions prevailing in Russia have led to the formation of a strategic course of socio-economic development of the state in the public administration system, which is based on diversified specialization and sustainable development of the subjects of the Russian Federation. This article offers recommendations on the formation of the concept of smart specialization of the subjects of the Russian Federation at the strategic level. The subject of the research is the concept of smart specialization for sustainable development and the possibility of its reflection in the strategic documents of the Russian Federation. The relevance of the research topic is beyond doubt, since the issues of sustainable development of the subjects of the Russian Federation are still topical. The present study is based on the dialectical method of cognition, which includes such methods as comparative, institutional analysis, synthesis, induction, deduction. This methodology provided an opportunity to study this problem through the prism of theoretical and practical aspects. It was concluded that "smart specialization" will make it possible to most effectively identify and implement the vector of regional development, select specific measures that are most effective for each of the subjects of the Russian Federation. One of the important tasks when using this approach is to minimize competition between regions, implement the transition from competition for investment and business to joint development of value chains by regions and strengthen interactions between enterprises. The necessity of developing and implementing institutional and methodological foundations for detailing and updating the most economically promising specializations of the regions was justified. The results of this study, the conclusions drawn and the formulated proposals can be used to improve the strategic foundations of territorial management with a view to their sustainable development. The scientific novelty of the research lies in the proposal to make changes to the fundamentals of strategic planning for the territorial development of the regions of the Russian Federation, which will contribute to the implementation of the principles of smart specialization in practice.

Abstract:
The COVID-19 pandemic was one of the first “black swan” for the global economy. Regional authorities in Russia were faced to support their regional economies but they were faced with uncharacteristic independence. The issue of assessing the effectiveness of regional anti-crisis industrial policy measures in Russia during the COVID-19 crisis is becoming urgent. The purpose of this study is to search for the most successful measures of regional support in Russia during the designated period. The study is based on the conceptual framework of the St. Petersburg School of Industrial Policy. Descriptive statistics, cluster analysis, and correlation analysis are used as statistical methods of analysis. 1196 anti-crisis industrial policy measures were classified in all 85 regions of the Russian Federation. A scatter diagram of regions was constructed with indicators of the scale for assessing the intensity of the anti-crisis industrial policy and the scale of the impact of the crisis on socio-economic indicators. Four clusters were identified: (1) regions that practically did not implement an anti-crisis industrial policy and suffered during the crisis; (2) regions that have significant economic stability and are less likely to resort to active anti-crisis policies; (3) regions, the values of indicators of the dynamics of socio-economic indicators of which are at an average and below level, but are pursuing, on average, a more intensive anti-crisis policy; (4) regions that pursued an active anti-crisis industrial policy and achieved good socio-economic indicators. Correlation analysis did not reveal a stable connection between the intensity of the anti-crisis policy and the crisis dynamics of socio-economic indicators. The study also presents leading regions and outsider regions in terms of anti-crisis industrial policy measures for each of the 4 clusters.

Assessment of the impact of socio-economic indicators of the Volga Federal District of the Russian Federation on the number of payers of the Professional income tax
// Finance and Management.
2024. ¹ 1.
P. 39-58.
DOI: 10.25136/2409-7802.2024.1.69891 EDN: ZUSAWD URL: https://en.nbpublish.com/library_read_article.php?id=69891
Abstract:
This article examines the impact of socio-economic indicators of the Volga Federal District (hereinafter – VFD) on the number of payers of the special tax - «Professional income tax (hereinafter – PIT)». The relevance of the article is due to the need to assess various socio-economic effects that cause an increase in the number of PIT payers in the regions of the Russian Federation. The purpose of this article is to identify these socio-economic indicators and then assess their impact on increasing the number of PIT payers in the region, which allows us to develop measures aimed at tax management in a particular region. Using econometric modeling methods, the authors assessed the impact on the number of PIT payers of such socio-economic indicators of the regions of the Volga Federal District as the number of individual entrepreneurs (hereinafter referred to as sole proprietors), GRP, the execution of regional budgets on PIT revenues, unemployment and nominal accrued wages. The materials used in the research process were obtained from open sources of official state statistics, consolidated tax and budget reports. The main results of this study are: - the indicator of the number of sole proprietors has a positive relationship with the number of PIT payers, which allows us to conclude that in regions with a larger number of individual entrepreneurs, the number of NPD payers is also growing; - the indicator of the number of unemployed has an inverse relationship with the number of PIT payers in the regions of the Russian Federation; Based on the results of an econometric study, the author concludes that a number of socio-economic indicators of the regions of the Volga Federal District have a significant impact on the number of PIT payers.

Integrated MSW management system in the Russian Federation: problems of interpretation and formation
// Finance and Management.
2024. ¹ 1.
P. 59-71.
DOI: 10.25136/2409-7802.2024.1.70175 EDN: LXBYNM URL: https://en.nbpublish.com/library_read_article.php?id=70175
Abstract:
The object of the study is the formation of an integrated MSW management system within the framework of the national project "Ecology" and the federal project "Integrated Solid Municipal Waste management System". The subject of the study is organizational, methodological, legal, financial, economic, industrial and technological problems that make it difficult at the federal and regional levels to achieve the annual and final planned indicators of these projects in 2024. The purpose of the work is a general description of the integrated MSW management system being created, as well as to identify the main problems of its formation in the new financial and economic environment reality. The author considers the planned target indicators of the federal project and their correlation with the indicators achieved in 2019-2022. Special attention is paid to the three-fold decrease in the initial planned indicator for recycling, which occurred due to insufficient development of the MSW recycling infrastructure, and the threat of non-fulfillment of the utilization indicator in 2024, which persists even after that. The methodological basis of research is an integrated approach that allowed the use of methods of systematic, comparative, factorial and economic-statistical analysis, content analysis, and also synthesis. The scientific novelty of the work lies in the disclosure of an integrated system as a set of methods for handling MSW, located among themselves in a certain hierarchy of applications, the last of which is waste disposal, and the smaller its scale and the damage caused to the environment, the greater the level of consistency the system demonstrates. Neutralization and energy utilization do not fully solve the problem, since they leave a lot of harmful combustion products. Recycling is much more environmentally friendly, the degree of development of which should be considered as the second important criterion for the development of an integrated waste management system. The reduction by the curators of the MSW management reform of the initially stated recycling targets for 2024 by three times is actually an official recognition of the global underdevelopment of the domestic recycling and processing industry and the lack of real state participation in its formation and development.

Prospects for replacing Russian fuel with Latin American fuel in the European market
// Finance and Management.
2024. ¹ 1.
P. 72-85.
DOI: 10.25136/2409-7802.2024.1.70192 EDN: OPZMYO URL: https://en.nbpublish.com/library_read_article.php?id=70192
Abstract:
The subject of the study is the potential of the Latin American energy market in the context of the demand of the European Union market for the replacement of Russian energy resources. The object of the study is the energy resources market of the European Union, Latin America, and Russia. The purpose of the study is to identify the possibilities of Latin American countries in replacing Russian energy resources in the energy market of the European Union. The author examines in detail such aspects of the topic as the dependence of the EU economy on Russian energy resources, changes in the conjuncture in the fuel and energy sector of the European Union, and also touches on the consequences for European economies in connection with the abandonment of Russian energy resources. Special attention is paid to the opportunities of the Latin American region in the development of the European energy market. The prospects of the Latin American energy market are being explored from the point of view of the availability of natural resources, as well as from the point of view of real opportunities for exporting energy resources. The methodological basis of the research is a systematic and comparative analysis, a method of generalization, methods of grouping and classifying quantitative and qualitative data, methods of analyzing quantitative data. The main conclusions of the study are that in the short and medium term, the role of Latin America in Europe's energy security is small due to geographical remoteness and the lack of technological opportunities for Latin American countries to increase production capacities in the shortest possible time to increase energy production. For this reason, in the near future, the countries of the Latin American region will not be able to significantly replace Russian fuel in the European market of traditional energy resources. However, European companies are interested in the potential of the Latin American region in the field of "green" energy. In the long term, cooperation between the EU and Latin America in this area seems to be the most mutually beneficial for both sides. A special contribution of the author to the research of the topic is the study of the conjuncture of the EU fuel and energy complex in the context of energy imports. The novelty of the research lies in the fact that for the first time in the domestic literature the question of the prospects of the Latin American energy market as a substitute for the Russian energy market for the European one is raised.
