Abstract. The Russian experience of regional governance includes the strategizing and programming of social and economic development as indispensable part. However the efficiency of the existing measures is assessed ambiguously which requires their correction taking into account the role of the large-scale business in the regions of Russia. The statistically based position of large-scale business in the world and in Russia is compared by means of the analysis of the legislation and the location of the sector in strategic (and methodological) papers. During the analysis of the legislation in the Rostov region, the objective character of business understanding in the regional strategy was stated. The absence of the analysis of numerous economic agents (only large “industries” were used) was shown. The attribution of economic goals of a region of Russia (administrative unit) was found out. The absence of the analysis of strategies of large-scale business located in the region, their position in the locality and the role of the region in the strategy of largescale business was stated. The risks of such an approach were shown. They include limitation of the strategy efficiency, absence of “feedback” of the region on the implementation of strategies by large-scale business and absence of the mechanism of the involving the resources of such business into the development and modernization. The measures of institutional and organizational character for the involvement of large scale-business resouces into the development of the regions on the basis of the account of the strategic positions of large companies are provided.
Key words: regional policy, region, strategizing, strategies of social and economic development, dynamics, Rostov region, large-scale business.
