Abstract

The study purpose is scientific and methodological substantiation of the effective use of cluster technologies in the strategic planning of sustainable development of rural territorial structures. The conceptual novelty of the research is that it provides an algorithm for clustering the socioeconomic development of rural areas by the critical target indicators based on the evaluating features (30 features) to make homogeneous clusters (four clusters). Also, the study established methodical approaches and guidelines for the use of cluster technologies to assess the prospects for sustainable development of the zone‐level system of rural areas as complex socioeconomic structures. The research used general scientific methods such as a monographic method, system and cluster analysis techniques, strategic planning tools, a computational and constructive method, and abstract–logical and graphical methods. A cluster approach should be used when designing strategic plans and programs for the socioeconomic development of rural municipalities. Cluster technologies should be used as a systematic tool for the development and implementation of a strategy for the sustainable development of rural areas. The key findings are based on the multidimensional grouping of rural areas and the formation of homogeneous clusters of rural areas at the zonal level. El propósito de este estudio es la fundamentación científica y metodológica del uso eficaz de las tecnologías de cluster (conglomeración) en la planificación estratégica del desarrollo sostenible de estructuras territoriales rurales. La novedad conceptual de la investigación es que proporciona un algoritmo para la conglomeración del desarrollo socioeconómico de zonas rurales por indicadores objetivo críticos basados en las características de evaluación (30 características) para hacer (cuatro) clusters homogéneos. Asimismo, el estudio estableció enfoques metódicos y directrices para el uso de tecnologías de cluster con el fin de evaluar las perspectivas de desarrollo sostenible del sistema zonal de áreas rurales como estructuras socioeconómicas complejas. La investigación utilizó métodos científicos generales como un método monográfico, técnicas de análisis de sistemas y clusters, herramientas de planificación estratégica, un método computacional y constructivo, y métodos abstracto‐lógicos y gráficos. Se sugiere utilizar un enfoque de cluster cuando se requiera diseñar planes y programas estratégicos para el desarrollo socioeconómico de municipios rurales. Las tecnologías de cluster deberían utilizarse como herramientas sistemáticas para el desarrollo y la aplicación de una estrategia de desarrollo sostenible de zonas rurales. Los hallazgos principales se basan en la agrupación multidimensional de las zonas rurales y la formación de clusters homogéneos de zonas rurales a nivel zonal. 本稿では、農村地域の構造の持続可能な発展の戦略的計画におけるクラスター技術の効果的利用を科学的および方法論的に実証する。本研究の概念的な新規性は、均質なクラスター(4つのクラスター)を作るための評価特徴(30の特徴)に基づく重要な目標の指標によって農村地域の社会経済発展をクラスター化するアルゴリズムを提供することである。さらに、本研究では複雑な社会経済構造としての農村地域のゾーンレベルシステムの持続可能な発展の見込みを評価するためにクラスター技術を利用する方法とガイドラインを確立した。研究には、モノグラフ法、システムおよびクラスター分析技術、戦略的計画ツール、計算的構築法、抽象的論理的および図式的方法などの一般的な科学的方法を用いた。農村部の自治体の社会経済開発のための戦略的計画やプログラムの作成する際には、クラスターアプローチを用いるべきである。クラスター技術は、農村地域における持続可能な発展のための戦略の開発と実施の体系的ツールとして使用するべきである。主な知見は、農村地域の多次元分類とゾーンレベルでの農村地域の均質なクラスターの形成に基づいている。
