The meta-systemic approach to evaluation of region’s level
The author invites to see the life of the modern society from a view of a meta-systemic structure consisting of three basic functional elements, i.e., natural environment, socium and economy. This approach to the current stage of social development means a qualitatively new perception of regional tendencies. It helps to apply general criteria of social progress to the concrete historical period. These meta-systemic principles are operative at any level of social structure. The regional level is looked at as the local initial link of sustainable life activity, and this opens new opportunities to interdisciplinary scientific research. It is on the regional level that tendencies forming the general picture of social and economic transformations leading the RF to the open market springs out.
