UNOBSERVED ECONOMY AS A BARRIER TO SOCIO-ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT OF THE REGION
Abstract and keywords
Abstract (English):
The paper considers the structure of non-observed economy in the context of the system of national accounts. The conclusion about the identity of the concepts of non-observed and shadow economy is made and the leading role of crime in the formation of the shadow sector is determined. On the example of St. Petersburg the relationship between the growth of criminalization and the decline in living standards of the population is investigated. Particular attention is paid to economic incentives that determine the behavior of a “rational” individual in the choice of employment and can create obstacles to the achievement of strategic objectives of regional development.

Keywords:
