INTERDISCIPLINARITY IN THE COGNITION OF THE PROCESSES OF DEVELOPMENT OF TERRITORIAL SYSTEMS

Abstract

Socio-ecological and economic processes and phenomena are revealed in the concepts and methods used in the regional economy. Unlike branch scientific approaches, which are focused on selective, more detailed study of the processes taking place in a particular area, the regional approach allows us to study them in interrelation and unity. Regionalism is a spatial form of integration of knowledge of several branch sciences. The regional economy is often considered on the general principles of traditional economic theory — defining the effectiveness of regional development as the sum of assessments of individual (corporate) economic activity, without taking into account the social territorial significance of the social and environmental components of development. To correct this situation, when making decisions, it is necessary to know and use the methodological foundations of regionalism, which have a number of interdisciplinary specific features. The article proposes scientific and methodological foundations for the search for effective spatial solutions for the balanced development of territories, which are based on the application of specific elements of the theory that reveal the essence of the study. A matrix model of the study of the processes of development of territorial systems is presented, which allows us to establish the sequence of transition from crisis to sustainable development and a new level of organization of the territory in achieving the set goals.
