Transition to the innovative type of reproduction; in the Far East of Russia as the objective necessity; and the opportunities realization

Abstract

The solution of socio-economic problems of Russia in the Far East, is possible by forming an economic system in this macro-region, the core of it will be the innovation economy. An innovative type of social reproduction, a transition to it, substantiated in this work, cor-responds to the current state of the economy of the developed coun-tries. Furthermore, and this is more important, only this state of pro-ductive forces and business relations will allow to resolve the contra-diction between economic growth and socio-demographic degrada-tion observed from the beginning of the 21st century. The empirical analysis of the social and economic efficiency of the regional innova-tion system (RIS) functioning in the Republic of Sakha (Yakutia), es-tablished in the early 2010s, proves that interconnected working of all subsystems of the innovation economy can achieve significant eco-nomic results not due to degradation of the human factor, but due to its development. Success of RIS, created in a short period of time, can be repeated in other regions of the Russian Far East.
