Annotation

The article seeks to reveal promising approaches to sustainable development of rural territories on the back of state-of-the-art achievements of the scitech revolution. Social and economic territorial systems make the subject of research. The article focuses on recessionary state of rural territories in the Russian Federation that evolved due to destruction of their economic and social potential. The article views the contemporary state of rural territories, the fundamental flaws in the existing program of their development, and substantiates the need for allocation of settlement areas that are free of agricultural production, offer high cultural and natural potential. Such areas would be proper for development of individual housing construction, recreation and farming businesses that manufacture high-value products for tourists and shape an attractive rural landscape. Large-scale agricultural production shall be developed in well-suited environmentally sustainable areas. If considered through the prism of the occurring scitech revolution, the problem of rural territories reveals a new development line that contributes to reviving the harmony between the Human Being and the Nature, and is effective, for their economy and community, and generally for the state. It opens opportunities for offsite or out-of-office employment for a wide array of professions not directly engaged in production. The exchange of tasks and results is set to be accomplished via the information environment amidst quick rotation of products and technologies. This boosts the significance of rural areas as the most convenient and eco-friendly environment for work and habitation of people in the upcoming economy. Integrated solution to the problem of developing rural territories requires a foresight project addressing the future of rural settlements and towns of Russia, elaboration of the road map, an action plan and strict control of their implementation.
