Introduction. The strategic imperative of the Republic of Adygea’s development policy is to leverage intangible resources such as cultural and historical heritage, human capital, institutional capital, and reputational capital. Adygea has unique development conditions, including close economic integration with the Krasnodar Krai, a unique historical and cultural heritage, and an agriculturally focused economy. Over the past five years, the republic has demonstrated mixed performance in its socioeconomic indicators. While certain indicators (tourism and investment) have shown growth, structural problems (population outflow, low share of the innovative economy) persist. An analysis of official documents and statistical data allows us to assess the effectiveness of the current development policy and identify opportunities for improving the effectiveness of intangible resources. Purpose. To study the potential of the Republic of Adygea’s intangible resources and develop evidence-based recommendations for their integration into regional development policy. Methods. The study utilized systems analysis, a comparative method, a statistical analysis of socioeconomic indicators, and a SWOT analysis of the region’s intangible resource potential. Results. It was found that the Republic of Adygea’s intangible resources (cultural and historical heritage, human capital, institutional capital, and reputational capital) are underutilized. Problems and barriers to the use of intangible resources were identified. A classification of the region’s intangible resources was developed, and strategic directions for their integration into development policy were proposed. Practical Relevance. The study’s results can be used by government bodies of the Republic of Adygea when adjusting the Socioeconomic Development Strategy until 2036, as well as in developing regional programs to support creative industries and ethnotourism. Conclusions. For the first time in the Republic of Adygea, a comprehensive assessment of the potential of intangible resources from a regional governance perspective was conducted. The need to include intangible asset indicators in the region’s strategic planning system is substantiated. The key to a targeted development policy for Adygea is interdepartmental coordination, partnership between government, business, and civil society, as well as systematic work to preserve and enhance the region’s cultural and historical heritage, human capital, institutional capital, and reputational potential in the digital age.

Introduction. In modern Russia, where sustainable development policy is becoming one of the key tasks for many regions, the Constitutions of the constituent entities of the Federation play a special role in the formation of political and legal foundations that promote sustainable development. The Constitution of the Republic of Adygea is the most important political and legal document that defines the foundations of the state structure of the region and serves as a guarantee of the rights and freedoms of its citizens. The Constitution not only recognizes the supreme legal force of federal legislation, but also creates a political and legal framework for the implementation of civil initiatives, which makes it a key element in shaping the future of Adygea. Purpose. Political and legal analysis of the reflection of the principles of sustainable development in the Constitution of the Republic of Adygea. Methods. A combination of an integrated method, a comparative legal approach, systemic and political and legal analysis. Results. The political and legal nature of the Constitution of the Republic of Adygea is determined by its basic principles, including the protection of human and civil rights and freedoms. The Basic Law of Adygea is the political and legal basis for sustainable development of the region. The Constitution of the Republic not only establishes the political and legal basis for the foundations of the constitutional system, but also predetermines the foundations for the formation of a responsible civil society, which is a prerequisite for the sustainable development of the region. The provisions of the Constitution of Adygea generally correlate with the goals of sustainable development. The Basic Law of the Republic serves as the basis for the formation of a political and legal order that promotes economic growth, socio-political and environmental stability. To ensure sustainable development of the region in the future, it is important to develop the mechanisms provided for by the Constitution of the Republic of Adygea, which requires the active participation of government agencies, civil society institutions and the scientific community. Conclusions. The Constitution of the Republic of Adygea reflects the main provisions of sustainable development and creates a political and legal basis for their achievement, which proves the commitment of the region to the UN Agenda for Sustainable Development.

Discussions about specific substantive markers of macroregional identity are gradually becoming part of spatial projections of identity and new contours of the identitarian research field. The article reveals the essence of such concepts as intangible development resources, spatial/territorial identity and macroregion. A review of the authors' publications devoted to the designated problem is conducted, on the basis of which the author argues that there is no generally accepted interpretation of the phenomenon in Russian science. Based on the constructivist approach and proceeding from the identification of the concepts of spatiality and territoriality, the author understands macroregional identity as a constructed level of spatial-territorial identification, occupying a middle place between regional and national identities, built into the identification matrix, characterized by an understanding of belonging to a macroregion, conditioned by geographical, natural and climatic parameters and historical and cultural homogeneity, which contribute to interregional integration. It is concluded that innovative practices of positive strengthening of the macro-regional level of territorial identification contribute to strengthening of Russian national identity and influence consolidation processes at the macro-regional and national levels.

The article analyzes the main vectors of sustainable development of Adygea, which occupy an important place in the Strategy of socio-economic development of the Republic of Adygea until 2030.

Special attention is paid to the analysis of the development of the tourism cluster and the trends of the branding of the territory. The contribution of scientists of the region to the development of the concept of sustainable development is noted. The conclusion is made about the need for further harmonious cooperation of regional authorities, civil society institutions and representatives of the scientific community in achieving the goals of sustainable development of the republic.
