State-of-the-art on current methods and practices for evaluation the potential of regional development

Original language description

The question of how to measure development has attracted the attention of economists and other social scientists as well as non-government organizations and policy-makers for many decades. Nowadays, the problem of determining the internal reserves of socio-economic development of region becomes more important, the solution of which requires development of new approaches to the definition of essence, structure, methods for assessing the socio-economic potential. Regional development policies based on local potential triggers a shift in the economic structure of territories. Developments are conducted in the form of planned changes in various aspects of social life by exploiting all the potential of human resources, natural resources, and institutions available in the area. This process has however proven difficult as contemporary views on measurement of regional development are presented as multi-dimensional concepts. Measurement of territorial progress with regards to achieving the developmental potential plays a crucial role in improving the prosperity and quality of life in any territories. Several methods of evaluating the level of development exist, most of methods have their own limitations. The aim of the paper is to review the existing and relevant approaches to evaluate the potential of regional development based on comprehensive analysis of scientific literature.
