Macroeconomic dataset for comparative studies on coastal and inland regions in innovation space of Russia

摘要

This article presents regional-level data that can be used for comparative territorial studies on innovation dynamics. The dataset covers a series of 50 indicators grouped into a matrix of 5 elements of regional innovation system (human resources – HR, infrastructure, research & development sector – R&D, innovative milieu, framework conditions) and 5 components of innovation security (economic, scientific and technological – S&T, social, political, geo-ecological). This complex set of interrelated data enables to grasp the catalyst and inhibitor factors that have a significant impact on the sustainable development of a particular regional innovation system. The innovation security approach used enables to consider the locus of innovation processes, account for the relationship between individual components of regional innovation systems and acknowledge for the unique properties of the regions. The database includes statistics for a total set of 85 regions of the Russian Federation over a period of 2015 and 2016. Spatial differentiation is made on to coastal and inland regions. This enables to identify the development patterns as influenced by the global trend of coastalization.
