Role of the Government in the Development of Special Economic Zones and Industrial Parks in Russia

This paper investigates the process of developing and implementing special economic zones (SEZs) and industrial parks (IPs) in Russia. Russian government used these initiatives to develop and diversify exports, increase employment, attract foreign direct investment (FDI), and launch technology and knowledge sharing processes. The neoclassical approach, political economy approach, heterodox school, and industrial cluster model have been relied on to evaluate the role of the state in the implementation of these initiatives and identify essential factors for sustainable development. This study reveals that government approach in developing SEZs and IPs implied high state interference into the business processes preventing healthy competition and collaboration within the economic zones. Also, lack of funding, political instability and overall business uncertainty were the main prevent factors for the sustainable growth of the economic zones. The paper suggests that for the development of SEZs and IPs in the Russian context, the important factors are personal networks between private investors, regional managers and federal government, as well as appropriate state regulations and general investment climate of the country

Priority Directions of the Regional Food Complex Effectiveness Increase

In the article, the modern trends of management integration as a solution of food and sectoral problems are considered. On the basis of national and foreign experience of development of integration, the classification of integration in economic systems is developed. Based on the given classification, the concept of integration is conducted. In the article, much attention is given to the food problem solution, which depends more on the agro-industrial complex based on metaintegration. The leading place of a food complex in the system of agro-industrial complex is caused by a role of food and food raw materials in life of the population of the country. The ratio of the sectors participating in the food production and consumer goods makes the sectoral structure of agro-industrial complex. In the conditions of the resource limitation necessary for the production and food delivery to the domestic market, the role of trade will increase not only in agro-industrial complex, but in all national economy. Also, in this article, the phenomenon of clusters is studied. The attention to clusters as to innovation systems reflects a rising tide of interest of economic science to the questions of economics functioning in regional level and understanding of a role of specific local resources in stimulation of innovative opportunities and competitiveness of small and medium business. Creating a cluster, participants develop the spatial and organizational integrated structure, in interaction of legal entities the status is saved and cooperation provides competitive advantages with other business entities. The role of the state in integration of cluster formations in the Russian Federation is more significant, than in any other country. The state represented by regional authorities actively participates in decision-making process by the business located in its catchment area not only through membership in governing bodies of large joint stock companies

INTELLECTUALLY-INNOVATIVE CLUSTERS AS THE BASIS OF INDUSTRIAL POTENTIAL DEVELOPMENT

The purpose of the paper is the formation of a new type of industrial clusters as a modern basis for the spatial development of industrial potential. Methodology. The methodological basis of the article is methods of scientific cognition, which allow revealing the essence of the clustering process. In particular, the following methods are used: fuzzy cluster analysis – for the construction of intellectual-innovative industrial clusters; grouping – for the determination of types of intellectually-innovative industrial clusters; systematization – for studying foreign experience; abstraction – for the formation of theoretical generalization and conclusions. Results. Foreign experience of effective cluster structures creation in the industrial sector of the economy is analysed and the necessity of establishing cooperation between education, science, and business structures is proved. By means of the indistinct S-averages method, taking into account indicators of development of industrial potential intellectual and innovative components, measures matrices of Ukraine’s administrative-territorial units belonging to four clusters have been developed, each of the clusters differs by the development level of corresponding component (very high, high, average, and low). On the basis of the achieved results, the conclusion is made that it is necessary to create intellectually-innovative industrial clusters in which administrative-territorial units with the high development level of intellectual potential will act as a catalyst of innovative development of the industrial potential. The role of the state is defined as an activator of establishing cooperation between education, science, and business structures. It was offered to work out the conception of cluster policy and distinguish pilot projects in the industrial sector of the economy taking into account modern directions of the global economic development. Global practical experience of stimulation of industrial potential innovative development is generalized on a cluster basis. With the aim to institutionalize the activity of intellectually-innovative industrial clusters creation, it is offered to use a cluster passport with the introduction of such sections as innovativeness of a project and relevance to the strategic targets of the state economic development. Practical implications. Practical implications are related to the possibility of establishing an effective dialogue not only between business structures but also with educational establishments, scientific institutions, and government bodies. Value/originality lies in the development of a typology of industrial clusters taking into account indicators of development of intellectual and innovative components and the formation on this basis of the cluster concept of the development of industrial potential

Ключевые слова: государственное регулирование, промышленность, промышленная политика, стратегия развития, целевая программа, неоиндустриализация.The article covers the issues of conceptual modernization of national industrial policy of Ukraine. The timeliness of problem is determined by widespread deindustrialization induced by ineffective state regulation of the process of market-oriented reforms. At the same time, under the influence of the newest trends in global economics, in industrialized and faster growing countries an upsurge in interest in active state policy, based on new industrialization approach, is observed. Its idea consists in strengthening the own industry on the ground of the new technological base with the priority development of advanced industries. The expedience of new industrial scenario of industrial development in Ukraine is determined by changes in production and markets structures in the world, shifts in international division of labor, development of new forms and practices of international competition and cooperation, and widespread changes in technology revolution. Keeping out of these trends Ukrainian industry risks to intrench itself between global industrial outsiders. It is proposed to solve that problem within a framework of matrix-type industrial policy. It allows combining efficiently the horizontal measures related to the development of favorable conditions for doing business in whole and specific forms and practices of their use for each industry. The new policies, such as the creation of favorable conditions for industrial development and development of high-quality institutional environment, promotion of innovations and development of advanced industries, maintenance of updated structural and sectoral goals of industrial development, are considered. The partnership between state, business, science and society in the process of development of strategy of industrial development is reasonably required. The most acceptable form of its realization can be Nation-wide purpose-oriented program of industrial development. As efficient organizational tools of innovation processes acceleration it is proposed to apply the European experience regarding the development of Technology Platforms, Joint Technological Initiatives, scientific and production structures of cluster-type. We substantiate the applicability of measures to facilitatethe entrance of domestic producers to global value chains in order to competitive growth. Among actions aimed to ameliorate the conditions of doing business we emphasizedthe priorities of taxation improvement, long-term lending, venture capital financing, facilitation of SME’s development, and maintenanceof the system of professional staff training.

Why design matters? Making the case for the smaller companies in the automotive industry

This research focuses on industrial design and strategic management and more specifically on the way the development of design capabilities can influence the strategic product market position of the Portuguese small and medium supply companies for the automotive industry. Industrial design is not usually highlighted as a cornerstone skill of most small-scale automotive supply companies. Instead, it is usually established as a process in resource-capability combinations due to the highly dynamic environments that characterize this industry. Practice suggests a double bias either in the definition of design, sometimes emphasized as style and associated with carmakers, or in design’s role in developing the position of small and medium enterprises in supply networks. This line of reasoning supports the lead research question: why design matters for smaller companies in the automotive industry? The theoretical constructs and context field supported through the literature and the automotive industry profile (international and Portuguese) review reveal a research procedure supported on an interdisciplinary work process. The exploratory nature of this study calls for a qualitative type of research to be conducted as the use of case studies is the most appropriate research strategy. Three firms from the Portuguese automotive cluster were selected for the case study representing an appropriate automotive industry supplier sample for cross-case analysis. The analysis of the gathered data required three phases: analysis and report of individual cases; analysis and report of cross cases; and the conclusions and implications of the cross cases for both theory and practice. As a result, it is revealed the importance of the development of design capabilities for a determined business strategy. The development of design capabilities is key for the development of high added value products for the supply of complex parts or modules. Hence, a list of suggested positive and negative industrial design practices are proposed
