A Methodological Framework for Developing National Strategy Concepts (Mission, Priorities, and Competitive Advantages)

The presented study develops methodological aspects of forming the concepts of national socio-economic development strategies through the example of the Republic of Uzbekistan.

Aim. The study aims to improve the scientific and methodological framework for developing the concepts of national strategies for long-term socio-economic development.

Tasks. The authors examine the evolution of strategic thought through the lens of the balance between practical and theoretical principles in the content of strategy as a multi-faceted phenomenon; substantiate the need to make allowance for the influence of global and national trends in national socioeconomic development strategies; develop the methodological aspects of the formation of national development strategies.

Methods. This study uses general scientific methods of cognition and the modern methods of strate-gizing theory to present the methodological aspects of development of national long-term socio-economic development strategy concepts.

Results. Strategy has come a long way, from battlefields to economic competition, and later to public administration, becoming an efficient means of competition between corporations and countries. The authors reveal the role of global and national trends and patterns as generators of potential opportunities and threats, gradually transforming into internal characteristics of the objects of strategizing as strategies are implemented; characterize the most important elements and categories of the strategy concept; substantiate the demand for the modern methods of strategizing theory in the development of the national long-term socio-economic development strategy of the Republic of Uzbekistan.

Conclusion. The modern strategizing theory offers efficient methods that can be successfully used to develop concepts of long-term national strategies.
