Abstract. 

In the article it is emphasized that the current state of the national economy and regions is not depressive but it is defined as an integration association with a negatively catalyzing effect of synergy that does not promote the formation of the way of the modernization development. The author singles out a group of regions of the agrarian orientation with the economy of a peripheral character. Using as the example six regions of the Northern Caucasus and Kalmykia having territorial adjacency in the southern border-zone of Russia and a gnoseologically developed community in civilization signs and mentality the essence of a peripheral condition of their economy is displayed. As the opposition to the concepts “depressiveness” and “peripheral character” the intrinsic characteristic of a peripheral condition of regional economy is given. The author assumes that the peripheral character of the economy of regions is a more difficult problem, than the depressive economy. The measures directed not only on the institutional orientations in the improvement of the economic relations but also on the factors influencing the development of the economy (sociological, politological, judicial, informational ones) are necessary for overcoming the difficulties. The main sign of the peripheral character is a weakness of the impulses of the self-movement in the development of backward regions. The author pays special attention to the need of the creation of the conditions for the achievement of the ability of the self-movement for the development of regions, to their formation on the way of activization of the economic growth. Two main conditions for this situation are: diversification of the structure of the economy, creation at least of such number of the enterprises which will provide technical crops in the region; improvement of the condition of the public environment, grafting a practical culture. A key factor of providing the conditions for the self-development of regions “ outsiders is the modernization of the existing system of nation-wide and regional government. 

Key words: region, peripheral economy, regional economic complex, South of Russia, depressiveness, state regulation, strategy, growth points, development.
