Sectoral Strategic Planning: Features of the Modern Stage

Abstract

The presented study examines the role of sectoral strategies as a set of measures for ensuring the sustainable functioning of major sectors of the national economy and regional economies of the constituent entities of the Russian Federation. Aim . The study aims to assess the process of sectoral strategic planning from the perspective of achieving stable development of the national economy. Tasks . The authors analyze sectoral strategies to see how they address the challenges and threats to sectoral development, examine the distribution of production of strategic priority sectors in the context of the constituent entities of the Russian Federation in order to determine its concentration, and systematize the major avenues for discussion regarding the role, place, and quality of sectoral strategic planning. Methods . This study uses analysis to present various scientific opinions on strategic planning, identify its problem areas typical for the modern stage, and draw attention to the format of goal-setting for sectoral strategies and the results of their implementation. Results . Five major directions of research on the problems of sectoral strategic planning are determined. The approach used in the development of sectoral strategies and the results of sectoral strategic planning are assessed. Low requirements for the formulated goal are identified as a characteristic feature of the modern stage of sectoral strategic planning, which leads to low indicators of sectoral development. That said, the issue of making allowance for the risks and threats to sectoral development is not sufficiently investigated. Conclusions . The problem of sectoral strategic planning has many aspects for consideration, which serves as a basis for objective assessments of the current situation. The current results of the development of economic sectors indicate that there are significant problems both in the organization of strategic planning and in its implementation. The lack of clear progress in economic development and the majority of strategically important industries being concentrated in the European part of Russia encourages discussion and scientific search for solutions to the problem of updating the model of sectoral strategic planning.
