THE LEVEL OF DIGITAL ECONOMY DEVELOPMENT IN THE REGIONS OF RUSSIA
Abstract
The article attempts to assess the development of digital economy in the regions of the Russian Federation basing on available statistical indicators and taking into the account the existing international practices, in particular the index of the digital economy and society I-DESI, published by the European Commission in 2016. Indicators that characterize infrastructure, human capital and the digital government were used for assessment. As a result, a deep digital inequality of the country’s regions is revealed, which is comparable to the inequality between the developed and developing countries.
