Abstract

Diversification of the economy, the transition from the export of simple goods to more complex ones, is a fundamental approach to economic development. If there is a consensus on economic development through diversification among representatives of the academy and representatives of the authorities, then there is no such agreement as to which sectors should be chosen in the first place. The identification of new export industries is often not based on a fundamental scientific approach, and often reflects the desire to create as many new industries as possible, filling all cells in the input-output table in the shortest possible time. World practice does not know such precedents, while world experience points to other, gradualist and more successful export diversification strategies. This work will consider the approach to regional diversification, based on world historical experience and modern scientific methods.
