Regional differentiation in the Russian federation: A cluster-based typification



determined by the price ratio and real incomes of the population. Regarding this
indicator, major emphasisis placed on the most critical consumer goods.

Price indices for consumer goods and foodstuffs. These indicators, which
directly signal an aggravated social well-being, serve at the same time to indirectly
measure the situation at consumer market.

Individual incomes. This indicator involves the rated personal incomes inferred
from all income-related sources including wages and salaries, business activities
and individual household, pensions, scholarships, allowances, social security
payments, government budgeted subsidies to set off the prices for staple
foodstuffs and services from nonproductive sphere. This is a substantial part of
social spendings, and their abolition is likely to directly affect the population
consumer budget. In fact, the averaged income indicators are of little value in trying
to explain their impact on the rise of social tension in community. Hence, a
differentiated approach is required both in sorting out the income groups on the
one hand, and the job skill rating on the other (remember miners’ strikes or
teachers and doctors unrest).

Integrated data on economic activity. This is a traditional set of economic
indicators characterizing the volume and dynamics of production and consumption
of goods and services in a region. The most important indicators here are the
estimates concerning growth and decline of production, as well as its structure
(needed to access the potentialities of an established economic complex).

Factors aggravating socio-economic tension. These are all the other factors
triggering any manifest bounds of the tension which are, first and foremost, latent
(or concealed) health hazards resulting from human activities along the road of
historical advancement, such as nuclear power stations, secret zones of
radioactive contamination (Chelyabinsk Oblast, Southern Altai, etc.). There are
some other factors prompting the unwantedcourse of events unrelated to the above
sources. These are: our nearby neighbors outside the RF territory undergoing the
processes that adversely affect our domestic situation. The effects exerted by our
neighbors could be estimated by experts in terms of eventual exacerbation or
mitigation of this particular factor and its role for our internal situation. To illustrate
the case, general stability estimates made for Omsk Oblast and Krasnodar Kray
