Subject. This article deals with the theoretical and methodological issues of assessing the investment attractiveness of the advanced development areas. Objectives. The article aims to clarify the economic essence of the category Investment Attractiveness of Advanced Development Areas and related categories, and improve the methodological support to assess the investment attractiveness taking into account the characteristics of these areas. Methods. For the study, we used the methods of analysis and synthesis, generalization, analogy, classification, grouping, and systematization. Results. The article presents a methodology for assessing the investment attractiveness of the advanced development areas, taking into account indicators classified under three groups, namely investment potential, investment environment, and investment risk. It also offers recommendations to determine the type of investment attractiveness. Conclusions. Investment attractiveness, as a complex characteristic of the advanced development area, gets formed in the context of the influence of internal and external factors that are quantifiable and qualitatively assessed. To meet the needs of investors, a methodology that includes current assessment and forecasts is needed, indicating the areas of possible investment risk.

The deficit of subnational budgets and deceleration capital investments in multiple Russian regions increase the relevance of research aimed at improvement of tax incentivizing practice of the regional investment process. The studies focused on determination of the impact of socioeconomic and institutional factors upon the efficiency of investment tax expenses obtained wide circulation within the foreign scientific literature. The subject of this article is the assessment of sensitivity of the efficiency of regional tax expanses towards investment attractiveness of the types of economic activity carried out by the residents of territories of advanced socioeconomic development, created in the subjects of Far Easter Federal District. The scientific novelty and practical values of this research consists in substantiation of the reasonableness of assessment of investment attractiveness of the types of economic activity that are stimulated by tax incentives. Methodology for assessing investment attractiveness is proposed and tested. The conclusion is made that in case of low investment attractiveness of the type of economic activity, which was planned to support by tax incentives, it is required to conduct and additional analysis to avoid unjustified tax expanses.

The article proves the need to "return" the state to the economy in order to implement digital mobilization and form a new mechanism of public administration, including the article analyzes the key conditions for Russia’s transition to the path of "advanced development", reveals not only the content of the levels of the digital sphere, but also its end-to-end digital technologies, all the challenges and threats generated by the development of the digital economy, examines the need and possibility of Russia’s movement to the sixth technological order, provides an algorithm for the transition to the phase of a new long wave (the big or Kondratiev cycle).

S., & Guise, P. G. (1999). 40Ar–39Ar dating of alkali basaltic dykes along the southwest coast of Greenland: Cretaceous and Tertiary igneous activity along the eastern margin of the Labrador Sea. Geology of Greenland Survey Bulletin, 184, 19-29. https://doi.org/10.34194/ggub.v184.5227 _______________ A 380 km long coast-parallel alkali basalt dyke swarm cutting the Precambrian basement in south-western Greenland has generally been regarded as one of the earliest manifestations of rifting during continental stretching prior to break-up in the Labrador Sea. Therefore, the age of this swarm has been used in models for the evolution of the Labrador Sea, although it has been uncertain due to earlier discrepant K–Ar dates. Two dykes from this swarm situated 200 km apart have now been dated by the 40Ar–39Ar step-heating method. Separated biotites yield plateau ages of 133.3 ± 0.7 Ma and 138.6 ± 0.7 Ma, respectively. One of the dykes has excess argon. Plagioclase separates confirm the biotite ages but yield less precise results. The age 133– 138 Ma is earliest Cretaceous, Berriasian to Valanginian, and the dyke swarm is near-coeval with the oldest igneous rocks (the Alexis Formation) on the Labrador shelf. A small swarm of alkali basalt dykes in the Sukkertoppen (Maniitsoq) region of southern West Greenland was also dated. Two separated kaersutites from one sample yield an average plateau age of 55.2 ± 1.2 Ma. This is the Paleocene–Eocene boundary. The swarm represents the only known rocks of that age within several hundred kilometres and may be related to changes in the stress regime during reorganisation of plate movements at 55 Ma when break-up between Greenland and Europe took place.
