Abstract

Serious conceptual and methodological problems, facing the implementation of federal legislation on strategic planning, clearly confirm the thesis that the main directions of such planning were not initially sufficiently and multisided justified. The latter is especially true for such a vector of strategic planning as strategic planning of the spatial structure of the Russian economy. Like in many other cases, the important priorities of spatial strategy have not been supported with the sufficient progress in institutional and instrumental foundations of the state policy of regional development, which is the main regulator of the spatial structure of the national economy. One of the most significant omissions in this regard is the lack of correlation between the spatial strategy and the regional development policy, which implements it and the improvement of the economic and legal foundations of Russian federalism. Meanwhile, in Russia, as a federal state, all the problems of spatial regulation in the economy can be effectively solved only on the basis of clear division of powers, interaction and the coordination of interests of the Federation and its subjects. The article concludes that in order to ensure successful implementation of socioeconomic reforms and the achievement of the goals of national projects, it is necessary to return to the tasks of federal reform and on this basis - to significantly strengthen the role of the subjects of the Federation as the actors of the entire system of strategic planning in the country.
