АНАЛИЗ СОЦИАЛЬНО-ЭКОНОМИЧЕСКОГО РАЗВИТИЯ РЕГИОНОВ УКРАИНЫ

В течение длительного периода времени с 1991 по 2016 год социально-экономическое развитие регионов Украины характеризовалось усилением дифференциации и сохраняющегося неравенства. Постоянное сохранение разрыва между максимальными и минимальными значениями показателей социально-экономического развития регионов, в частности ВРП на душу населения (в 8,8 раза в 2014 году); доходов населения (10,3% в 2015 году); уровня безработицы согласно методологии МОТ (в 2,8 раза в январесентябре 2016 года), объема реализованной промышленной продукции (38,9 раза в январе-сентябре 2016 года) свидетельствуют о сохранении центр-периферийных отношений между регионами в экономическом пространстве страны. Такая ситуация снижает общую эффективность экономики, что отражается в снижении позиций Украины в рейтингах международных организаций. В соответствии с глобальным индексом конкурентоспособности в 2015 году Украина переместилась с 76 на 79 место по сравнению с 2014 годом.

1. Introduction

Socio-economic development of Ukraine is based on the substantial positive changes in the regions. So, transition processes in Ukraine were differently marked on the development ofits regions: some of them managed to mobilize their capacity and gradually adapt to difficult economic conditions, while the others, as before, are currently in the state of deep economic stagnation, which has led to an increase in regional inequality.

To crown it all, taking into account the complexity of modern processes of Ukrainian regions' socioeconomic development, the total assessment of

determination of Ukrainian regions' levels of socioeconomic development is required.

2. Literature Review

Modern processes of the socio-economic development of Ukrainian regions' are complex and poorly defined and, therefore, require a detailed analysis to determine the factors of their irregularity.

In the scientific economic literature, there are three main approaches to the survey of socio-economic processes, which are based on: modelling, analytical

schemes or a combination of both directions together (Piermartini, 2005; Ostashko, Voloschenko-Hold'em, 2011). Each of the abovementioned approaches has certain advantages and disadvantages, which are thoroughly analysed in the work (Tochilina, 2012).

Analysis of a number of studies [5-11], which studied the processes of the regions' socio-economic development, allows offering a certain identification stage of problematic concerning the country's regions socio-economic development.

3. Analysis of the economic development of Ukrainian regions

One of the main indicators determining the economic development level of the country regions is GDP per

person. Fig. 1 shows the distribution of Ukrainian regions on this indicator in 2013.

As can be judged from Fig. 1, the leader in the country in terms of GRP per person is the city of Kyiv - 109402 UAH, which is far ahead of the second region in the range, namely, Dnipropetrovsk region -46333 UAH. The following areas are Kyiv region -39988 UAH, Poltava region - 39962 UAH, Donetsk region - 37830 UAH, and Kharkiv region - UAH 31128. Outsiders of GRP per person in the country are the following regions: Chernivtsi - 15154 UAH, Ternopil -16819 UAH, Rivne - UAH 19003 and Kherson -UAH 19311.

In accordance with GRP indicator per person to the average rate within the country, regions were divided as follows (Fig. 2).

Obviously, the structure of Ukrainian regions according to this indicator has slightly changed. Only Kyiv region was replaced from the second group to the first while Zaporizhzhia and Odesa regions were replaced vice versa, from the first group to the second.

The biggest increase of the GRP indicator per person to the average rate in Ukraine in 2013 in comparison with 2001 was detected in Kyiv region - 26,4%, Dnepropetrovsk region - 17,4%, Donetsk region -13,8%, and Poltava region - 12,0% (Fig. 3).

Meanwhile, a decrease of the GRP indicator was present in Sumy region- 23,3%, Zaporizhzhia - 18,0%, Rivne region - 15,1%, and Odesa region - 15,0%.

4. Analysis of the regions' social development

While scientists characterize the economic development of the regions by one indicator - the GRP indicator per person, several indicators characterize the social development. Thus, the analysis of some works (Omarov, 2014; Gaiman, 2009; Dobkin, Chernov, Kernes, 2010; Hranberh, 2001; Kuznetsova, 2014; Klebanova, Kizim, 2012) gives an opportunity to offer the following set: the income per capita, the unemployment rate and migration coefficient.

According to the rate of income per capita, Ukrainian regions in 2013 were distributed as follows (Fig. 4).

Fig. 4. Diagram of Ukrainian regions' distribution according to income per person in 2013

As can be judged from Fig. 5, the leader in terms of the income rate per person in the country is Kyiv city -UAH 65672,8 which is far ahead of the second value of Dnepropetrovsk region - UAH 33352,1.

At the following places are Zaporizhzhia region -31106,2 UAH, Kyiv region - 29361,5 UAH, Kharkiv region - UAH 27516,7 and Poltava region -26998,5 UAH. Outsiders by income per person in the country are Zakarpattia region - 17789,7 UAH, Chernivtsi region - 18984,8 UAH, Ternopil region -UAH 19273,0 and Luhansk region - UAH 19920,6.

The unemployment rate of Ukrainian regions' population in 2013 was as follows (Fig. 5).

Subject to Fig. 5, the leaders of the unemployment rate in the country are Kyiv city - 6,7%, Odesa -6,7%, and Kharkiv region - 7,8%, while the outsiders are Zhytomyr - 11,5%, Poltava - 11,5%, and Luhansk - 11,4% regions.

According to migration coefficient, Ukrainian regions in 2013 were distributed as follows (Fig. 6).

As can be judged from Fig. 6, the biggest positive migration coefficient has Kyiv region - 6,4%, Kyiv city - 6,0%, and Kharkiv region - 3,0%, while the negative migration coefficient has Luhansk region (-3,6%) and Donetsk region (-2,5%).

The results of integral estimation of Ukrainian regions' social development index (IC), which is offered in the work (Omarov, 2014), are described in Fig. 7.

According to Fig. 7, the city of Kyiv (1,0) is significantly ahead of other regions of the country subject to the integral indicator of social development. Kyiv region is in the second place - 0,6346, it is followed by Odesa region- 0,5065, Kharkiv region - 0,4338, and Dnipropetrovsk region - 0,3725.

It should be stressed that the above-mentioned indicators of Ukrainian regions' social and economic development have different nature and have no

threshold, which could identify their problematic, and the need for the state support.

5. Conclusions

A significant number of half-peripheral and peripheral regions requires support from the state, aimed at aligning trends of the socio-economic development of top regions and problem regions, as well as the introduction of a mechanism to promote economic activities in the growth poles. The implementation of these measures requires regional support from the state, aimed at

aligning trends of the socio-economic development of the regions.

However, the problems of reducing the inequality among socio-economic development of the Ukrainian regions, grounding of the current concepts of socioeconomic development of the country's regions require

in-depth development. The main purpose ofthis article is to analyse the processes of socio-economic development of Ukrainian regions. The system of fractional indicators is justified and, on its basis, the integral and generalizing indicators of economic and social development of the regions of Ukraine are calculated.
