Research on sustainable and safe development of the region's socio-economic system: A cognitive approach

Abstract

Subject. This article discusses sustainable and safe development of the region's socio-economic system based on a cognitive approach. Objectives. The article aims to evaluate the appropriateness of applying the cognitive approach for researching and making decisions on the sustainable development of the regional socio-economic system. Methods. For the study, we used the methods of systems analysis and cognitive modeling. Results. The article presents a mechanism of the regional economic system functioning, and carries out a cognitive (impulse) modeling of the Republic of Dagestan socio-economic system. It also shows an instrumental method for scenario modeling of various cognitive structures. Conclusions. The application of the proposed method allows to construct a model of the socio-economic mechanism of the region based on the expert and statistical data on the Republic of Dagestan. An increase in industrial production can help achieve positive changes in the regional economy.
