摘要:The article analysed and systematized the theory and the paradigm of regional development. Opportunities for the optimum development of the regional economy in Ukraine are identified because the functioning of the market system is accompanied by crisis phenomena and requires deep scientific study of the contemporary economic theory and practice of going out of the crisis using the latest concepts of region development. Polarized space concept in the economy of the regions of Ukraine with the identifying of measures for its implementation is an important and insufficiently developed scientific research. The result of the transformation of economic transitions in the national economy is the dominance of so-called “point development”. Despite the positive effect of the presence of the growth poles in a separate area, this situation reinforces the asymmetry in economic development in comparison with the other regions. A result of this is the differentiation of the main economic and social indicators of regional economic development. In this regard, the study of regional concepts and theories of regional economic development is urgent theoretical and practical task, because the lack of a unified approach to the foundations of the theory of economic space, and especially its regional component, does not allow to start solving some of the practical issues of systematic formation of common economic space of the country. These issues raise many questions of applied character, which economic theory may not always give a definite answer. Such questions are certainly of theoretical interest but, most importantly, their answers can contribute to the formation of an effective competitive economy in the region. The object of the study is the regions of Ukraine, with their resource potential and absence of a polarized space. The main objective is the formation on this basis of anti-crisis measures of region development. The subject of research is theoretical principles and methodology of formation of a polarized space with the low quality of economic space. The methodological base of this research is the dialectical method of cognition, systemic approach, fundamental provisions of economic theory and the theory of the polarized space. The following research methods are applied: logical generalization, systemic and structural analysis, comparison, statistical, expert, etc. The aim is to study the imperatives for the effective development of the locally-spatial system, taking into account its resource potential, determination of possible ways of its implementation with the aim of regional economic space development and ensuring strategic guidelines and goals for socio-economic development. The obtained results gave a possibility to determine necessary methodological bases of the improvement of regional development, to focus on the most influential directions in the theory of the economic development of a region, to substantiate the conceptualization of an optimal model of economic development of the region.
