Abstract
The subject of the research is spatially non-uniform innovative activity, carried out at the regional level (meso level) within the macroregion of the South of the USA, analyzed and assessed on the basis of the qualitative measures (indicators and integrated index) of the level of innovative capacity and innovative activity of the regional innovative systems which gained development and statistical accounting of the results of the stated activity within specific states. The identified combinations, high correlation dependence and interconnection of indicators of innovative potential and innovative activity of regional innovation systems of the states of the South of the USA, made it possible to substantiate a number of trends in the development of these systems, to assess the peculiarities of spatial integration and, at the same time, the different-level differentiation of these systems, reflecting heterogeneity and unevenness. development of innovation activity on the «center-peripheral» type. The final typology of regional innovation systems of the states of the South of the USA, based on the logarithmically normal distribution of the indices of innovation activity and the integral indicator of the level of innovative potential of the average values for the period 2015–2019, results in a qualitative spatial diversity of these systems, determined by the joint influence of both economic phenomena on the deepening heterogeneity and differentiation of the latter.
