Despite some developments in the study of social innovation, there is a need to move to a new theoretical understanding of the phenomenon of "social innovation", which arises in response to understanding the role of innovation in the model of interaction of self-government and self-organization, as a tool for prompt resolution and smoothing of the consequences of modern socio-economic problems. Analysis of recent research and publications. The relationship of the phenomenon of innovation with the economic development of society, identified by N. D. Kondratiev and J. A.

The above circumstances determine the feasibility of determining the role and effective forms of social innovation in the interaction and cooperation of stakeholders for the development of communities and territories.
