The article analyzes the early works of famous Professor V.G. Tyukavkin. In particular, it reveals issues of research methodology, presents the conceptual vision of the problems of social and economic development of Siberian village of the early twentieth century. V.G. Tyukavkin was a supporter of the theory of a sufficiently high level of development of productive forces in agriculture of Siberia. Analyzing the questions of land tenure, land use, farming systems, cooperation, differentiation of the Siberian peasantry, he within the dominant methodology concludes that the region ripe for revolution. The article at the same time shows impartiality of the researcher, who, despite existing views, studied a vast array of dataand showed that Siberia had been turned into a granary of Russia demonstrating high performance and European quality (and oftensurpassed it, i.e. in oil production). The author for the first time in Soviet historiography raised the question of new forms of the organization of peasant production in Siberia – cooperation.

Aim. The aim is to assess the sustainability of the social and economic development of the municipalities in the Voronezh Region.Material and Methods. A systematic approach to an integrated, structured and dynamic study of the level of social and economic sustainability of municipalities in the region. This approach uses the classification method, which defines and restricts existing conceptual approaches to the interpretation of conflict as an economic category, and the comparative analysis method, which compares the selected approaches with each other. The statistical database covers the period from 2014 to 2018. The integral index of social and economic sustainability of the municipalities in the region has been calculated.Discussion. The results of calculations of the integral sustainability index allowed us to identify 5 groups of municipalities, characterized by a certain degree of social and economic sustainability: a group with a high level of socio‐economic sustainability, a group with an above‐average level of socio‐economic sustainability, a group with an average level of socio‐economic sustainability, a group with a low level of socio‐economic sustainability and a group with a crisis level of socio‐economic sustainability. A crisis situation in a number of municipalities necessitates the development of certain anti‐crisis recommendations that contribute to the effective use of existing potential and directly develop the internal resources of the municipalities.Conclusion. The work resolves an actual practice‐oriented issue in the field of socio‐economic and geographical research ‐ the calculation of the sustainability of the social and economic development of municipalities in the region. Assessment of the sustainability indicators of the regional municipalities made it possible to comprehensively and adequately reveal the "strengths and weaknesses" of the regional social and economic system of the Voronezh Region and to identify the principal strategic tasks in moving towards a single strategic aim – improving the population level and life quality.

UNTIL recently the tendency has been to look at African population largely in terms of crude density. From this standpoint tropical Africa was often rated as ‘underpopulated’, and even the recent and prestigious Pearson Commission, although noting the overall effect of population growth on development, stated blandly: ‘In Africa and Latin America…settlement is so sparse that it is impossible to speak of overpopulation.’1Yet two years before, by synthesising a number of land-use studies and by demonstrating that, in terms of available land suitable for agriculture and pastoralism, there was pressure on rural resources, a prominent geographer had attacked, and one would have thought, had laid to rest, this argument. I do not wish to reiterate his case.2Instead, using his article as a base, I will attempt here to make very crude prognoses and predictions and then to look at their policy implications, both for the sector discussed by him and for other sectors of social and economic development.

We analyze social-economic models of countries with developed information econ¬omies using group method of data handling. We identified the determinants of optimal model for social and economic development of countries with developed information societies. The experience of countries with developed information economy show that their success and high level of competitiveness rely on adequate determination of prospective development direc¬tions and effective implementation of innovations in production. Countries-leaders by IT-in¬dustry, show higher indicators of competitiveness and living standards. The high employment rates guarantee the dynamic economy and civil society. Implementing strategies for social and economic development of countries with developed information economy maximally ensure the protection of national economic interests. Therefore, the models for sustainable social and economic development objectively form the basis of economic security.

Today, the new conditions and opportunities for sustainable tourism development on the territory of municipalities are formed. Structural changes, involving the use of scientifically grounded approaches in the management of a tourism complex of territories, are taking place. Scientific researches, which are of key importance today, related to justification of priorities, prospects and mechanisms of tourism development, designing of tourism and recreational land use prospective plans and consolidated investment plans of the development of tourism and supporting infrastructure, creation of municipal tourism development programs. One of the main directions of such work is development of new methodological approaches and instruments that form the methodological basis of studies, their practical use and adaptation to modern conditions of social and economic development of municipal entities.

В работе рассматриваются задачи описания социально-экономического развития регионов. Сам характер существа рассматриваемых проблем указывает на то обстоятельство, что единственным и незаменимым инструментом здесь являются технологии математического моделирования. В работе применение подходов математического моделирования на основе высокопроизводительных вычислительных технологий рассматриваются на примере решения модельной задачи об управлении развитием регионов. Представлены результаты расчетов поведения динамической модели региона, проходящей через иерархию неустойчивостей (соответствие одних и тех же стационарных точек модели различным параметрам), в которых развиваются все более и более сложные структуры. The article deals with the problem of describing social and economic development of the regions. The nature of the merits issues points to the fact that the only and indispensable tool here is the technology of mathematical modeling. In the paper, the application of mathematical modeling approaches based on high-performance computing technologies is considered on the example of solving a model problem on the management of regional development. The results of calculations of the behavior of the dynamic model of the region passing through the hierarchy of instabilities (the correspondence of the same stationary points of the model to different parameters) are presented in which more and more complex structures develop.

The author revealed the injustices in the territories formation of the united territorial communities (UTC) under the local self-government reform, which are manifested in different, uneven volumes of their land use and the resource basis in general for local socio-economic development. The methodological approach used by the authorities in determining the capacity of united communities in their formation (in terms of compliance with the criteria – the area and the population density), led to the fact that in rural areas with low population density they had to form large UTCs to reach specific parameters by population. The hypothesis that territorially large UTCs are capable is ambiguous: on the one hand, land tenure and land use is a resource for socio-economic development of communities, on the other – in a large area the cost of providing essential services to the population in remote villages increases together with the administrative and other costs. Paper proves that large-scale rural UTCs should become objects of the state support as the “rural areas in unfavourable conditions” under the State Strategy for Regional Development for 2021–2027. The author justifies injustices in the centralization of powers on disposal of land resources. The land decentralization as a transfer of relevant powers to UTC local governments will be finally completed, according to the Decree of the President of Ukraine “On some measures to accelerate reforms in the field of land relations” № 449 from 15.10.2020, which will contribute to orderliness in this area and filling local budgets. It is also advisable within the UTCs to give internal communities the right to dispose of their economic territory’s land resources in these communities’ interests. The paper shows discriminatory aspects of administrative reformatting of 120 voluntarily formed and functioning UTCs, according to the Government’s long-term plans for 2020: by recognizing them as insufficiently capable, they should join other communities or unite into larger UTCs.

Present land use and tenure of a country is a result of the social norms and regulations. Land use manifests a country's priorities with implications on the economic development. Land tenure has implications on the investment decisions on land and hence efficient allocations of land. Sri Lanka, a country with a history of king's reign, colonial rule and then an elected government has its unique journey in the evolution of laws and regulations and institutions governing land and the resultant land use. This chapter chronicles the evolution of laws and regulations and institutions governing agricultural land and the resultant land use and tenure arrangements. At present, the governance of agricultural land is complex as it involves many regulations and many competing institutions.

The formation and development of partnerships between the  authorities and society in the process of selecting strategic guidelines  for social development have recently become the top  priorities for many states. Modern trends and transformations of management practices actualize the use of social partnership  technology in solving problems of social and economic development  of the territories. The novelty of the material presented in the article is revealed in the analysis of the limitations of the formation  and development of social partnership in contemporary Russian  conditions, the results of which allow a fresh look at the causes and  factors initiating a high level of alienation of the population from  local self-government. The results of the expert survey allowed us to  uncover the conditions for the formation of social partnership at  the new institutional level in the context of building a constructive dialogue between local authorities and the population. It  is concluded that institutional changes should be focused on  strengthening the functions of strategic management, the formation  of investment orientation of local authorities, ensuring the real autonomy of local government.

The problem of excess mortality in Russia has not lost its relevance. The situation is complicated by the high level of spatial inequality in health, which is usually measured at the regional level in our country. This work is one of the first attempts to look at the dynamics and extent of spatial inequality in health in Russia at the sub-regional level, by contrasting the "center/core" (in our case, represented by the largest Russian cities) with the "periphery" (the rest of the country). Cities with a population of over a million people were chosen based on the spatial hierarchy that exists in Russia, according to which the highest level of social and economic development is concentrated in the largest cities. As a rule, a higher level of development of human capital corresponds to lower mortality. Using data provided by Rosstat, we calculated life expectancy at birth for Russian cities with a population of over a million people in 1989-2016. The results fully coincided with our expectations: the polarization in the health levels between the largest Russian cities and the rest of the country has significantly increased in the last twenty-five years, which is a reflection of those centripetal processes that have been taking place in our country during this period. Russian cities with a population of over a million people are attractive destinations for both internal and external migrants, and thus acquire, among other things, a much more educated population. Since people with higher education take better care of their health, having a more educated population is undoubtedly an essential advantage of bigger cities over the periphery when it comes to the overall health level. Without solving the structural problems that restrain social and economic development outside the largest agglomerations, convergence in mortality rates between cities with a population of over a million people and the surrounding territories is hardly possible.

The representation of spatial issues in the texts of municipal strategies of administrative districts was studied using an original technique. On the basis of samples of 30 Russian and foreign strategies, it was found that spatial issues (in this study these were: economic and geographic location, population distribution and economic activity in the district, comfortability of the environment, connectivity, transport accessibility, migration flows) in the majority of municipal strategies are taken into account in one way or another and in half of the cases spatial issues are presented at a good level. The depth and quality of the analysis of spatial issues are significantly differentiated (ranks range fr om 3 to 18). A high level of presence of spatial issues correlates with the overall quality of strategic documents and is shown in the strategies of the districts of Tatarstan, Bashkortostan and the Leningrad oblast, wh ere there are strong traditions of strategic planning at the regional level and professional consultant teams are involved in the strategy development. An attempt to test quantitatively the hypothesis that there is a relationship between the degree to which spatial issues are taken into account in the strategy and the success of social and economic development did not give reliable results due to a small sample size and low quality of statistical indicators at the municipal level. Nevertheless, the introduction of three-point scales made it possible to compare roughly the distribution of districts into three groups for the assessment of spatial issues inclusion into the strategy and into three groups according to the success of social and economic development. The highest average assessment of the manifestation of spatial issues is in the group of successful districts. The share of districts that are successful in terms of social and economic development is higher in areas whose strategies feature an average or high degree of presence of spatial issues.
