THE ANALYSIS OF PRACTICE OF APPLICATION OF THE CONCEPT OF STAKEHOLDER ENGAGEMENT TO DEVELOP STRATEGY OF DEVELOPMENT OF TERRITORIES AND THEIR EASYNESS TO IMPLEMENT THE POLICY OF IMPORT SUBSTITUTION

Abstract

The article considers the concept of involvement as a possible effective mechanism for the integration of Russian regions in order to substantiate and understand the interests of regional enterprises in the development of import substitution. Since the concept of involvement of stakeholders for the development of regional development programs is relatively new for science and for the practice of state and regional management, now most of the practice in this area is presented in a descriptive format: what and how to do, for what, what happened. So far, most of the research is focused on the involvement of residents for the development of territories, but recently there has been a significant interest in the involvement of business and corporations in the development of territories and the development of coordinated strategies. In this regard, the analysis of secondary data and describes the experience of the Netherlands in the development of urban management. The article also presents the Russian experience (St. Petersburg, the Republic of Tatarstan and Sverdlovsk region) in attracting residents and business representatives to participate in the development and competitive selection of regional programs and projects. The analysis identifies two levels of interaction between potential stakeholders and the region: the level of the consultant and the level of the partner, which, in turn, involve different integration of joint activities. Also some problems of integration of Federal plans and programs with regional development programs, in particular, on development of import-substituting productions and technologies are designated. In particular, it is weak communication and inflexibility of regional strategies in terms of their updating to the current tasks and priorities.
