Regional clusters and regional production complexes as forms of regional structure of industry
The paper analyses the approaches to identifying regional clusters and industrial complexes as the forms of a regional structure. Although a comprehensive approach to regional problems and to planning regional industrial complexes used to be widely spread in the USSR, the present process of transforming the former regional industrial complexes into regional clusters goes too slow. The economic privatization has disrupted the inter-industry relations in regions and therefore - the complex development of economies. We should build not only a cluster policy, but also a policy aimed at complex planning of the development in regions in the sense we used to imply in the soviet time.
