| Summary: | The paper presents an analysis of current socio-economic and environmental aspects of the industry imbalances
in the regional economy by the example of Ural Federal District and Siberian Federal District. The
main aim of it is to identify the actual socio-economic problems in the development of the regional economies.
The authors analyze the economic, ecological and social aspects in the development of regional economies
by the examples. They investigate the specifics of the correlation between industrial development, ecological
problems and health problems of the local population. Particular emphasis is placed on the analysis of correlations
between the mortality of the population and industrial pollution of air and water.
The analysis has resulted in making proposals for optimization of the regional policy in the field of investments,
manufacturing and ecology. The special attention is given to environment-oriented projects.
The most practicable way in solving the problem of these regional industry imbalances would be the development
of regional diversification programs of the Siberia and the Ural economies. It has to support manufacturing
and the largest public-private investment projects for the foundation of enterprises in agriculture,
food and other industries. The most prosperous among them is the direction of bioenergy and forest-engineering-oriented
businesses.
The results of the research can be useful in solving the problem of the industry imbalances in the regional
economic policy of the Russian Federation. |
