Subsection: THEORETICAL ISSUES OF REGIONAL ECONOMICS
Abstract
The paper proposes a technique to measure differences in socio-economic indicators for regions. The author applies this technique not only to assessing changes in distance of regional socio-economic indicators but also to describing the nature of shifts and how each indicator defines a relative position of a region. The allowance for measures of inaccuracy of the statistical data used was made.
