Abstract

The disparity of indicators of the development is a factor hindering the stable socio-economic development of the regions and forms a number of threats to create a consolidated economic space within the country, so they need to be evaluated in order to develop the tools influencing them. The problem of determination of factors influencing the disparity of regional development is considered in the paper. Published scientific works do not fully meet the needs for research on disparities due to the failure to take into account the levels of influence of individual indicators on dynamic development of regions. The aim of the study is to identify the main indicators that are socio-economic catalysts of the uneven development of regions based on a comprehensive assessment of the achieved level of socio-economic development of regional systems in Ukraine. There are some methods used in the study: taxonomic, grouping, cluster analysis, quartimax, correlation analysis. The paper proposes the mechanism that allows us to identify the key factors that determine the degree of disparity in the socio-economic development of regions. To describe such factors, the definition of a socio-economic catalyst and a retarder of development have been introduced. The calculated weighting factors are used to determine the force of influence of social and economic catalysts on the degree of uneven development of regions. It is revealed that the difference in the development of regions is more determined by economic factors and indicators that represent the welfare. The results of the research can be used to formulate a strategy for regulation of disparities in regional socio-economic development. The implemented methodology for assessing and analyzing interregional socio-economic unevenness and regional disproportions allows us to identify the key factors that determine the imbalance in socio-economic development of regions. Investigation of the factors that form the disparities in regional development allows us to form the systematic tool for influencing them
