Abstract
Among the tasks that the Russian Federation needs to solve at the present stage is the formation of a system of mechanisms for the entry of new regions into its composition. One of them is the Donetsk People’s Republic. In turn, the development of such mechanisms is impossible without a thorough analysis of the socio-economic situation in the region. Otherwise, there are high risks that the limitations of the process of integrating its economy, social sphere and society into the all-Russian economic and legal space will be ignored. The article attempts to carry out such an analysis. Based on it, the author formulates some proposals for the development of the economy of the Donetsk People’s Republic.
