development programmes, which have been introduced in the Republic of Belarus
since 1997 [14].
In general, the study of the practical experience of international organizations and
individual countries shows that today the function of the “management” component is
realized in various ways and in different directions, taking into account the problems
of globalization through economic, political, environmental and other social forms.
From these positions, the manifestation of a new wave of interest of scientists and
politicians by the phenomenon of “glocalization” deserves attention (gloсalization, the
term synthesizes the notions of “globalization” and “localization”) [15] regarding the
convergence of innovative economic systems, networks and sectors. The driving forces
of this trend are more and more complex, non-linear dynamic processes of creating,
disseminating and using knowledge. They set the task for scientists and practitioners
to revise the ways and means of production, use and update of knowledge, its storage
and access to it. In particular, today, transnational corporations affirm globalization as
a strategy that calls for the creation of new industries in the regions, or the tactics of
adjusting to the needs of consumers and the tastes of consumers from specific
territories.
In addition, the processes of globalization in the transition to sustainable
development management and the emergence of global governance are closely
interrelated, progressing in one direction. More often effective subjects of these
processes, apart from states, are international and global organizations, global cities,
transnational corporations, to which a number of powers are gradually transferred from
states. With the emergence of global governance, power authorities, among which is
stimulation of the progress of the new technological revolution results, are gradually
“transferred” from a specific territory to the territory of the entire planet [16].
The prevailing scientific idea in the development of the sustainable development
theory is the idea of an integrated, systematic approach to solving the problems of
interconnection and balancing social, economic and environmental development
factors, especially in the context of regional development. That is, the issue is raised
that in the present conditions of scarcity of natural, material, financial and other
resources and the complexities of the social, economic and environmental situation, it
is necessary to create a reliable basis for the sustainable reproduction and development
of territorial systems. Undoubtedly, the effectiveness of such work will depend on the
management, clarity of the distribution of powers between the various levels of
government, national and regional development of institutions to coordinate activities
towards the implementation of sustainable development strategic goals.
Sustainable development management of regional socio-economic systems is
carried out within the framework of regional policy, which is a formalized system of
legal, organizational, institutional, financial and economic measures that determine the
