There is a gradual formation of a system of zones with special economic regimes in Russia. The beginning of the rational streamlining of the activity of such zones was laid by the “Federal law on special economic zones of 2005”. Actual practice of working of special economic zones revealed positive and negative aspects in their activity. It allowed to pass to normative-legal preparation of territories of advanced social and economic development as type of the zones more adequate to a present state of economies of the Russian regions.The adoption of a federal law on such territories in 2014, their testing in the Far East allowed us to proceed to their creation, distribution throughout the country. They have not and cannot become regional locomotives of social and economic development of the country. They still perform secondary functions in this process. But the functions are important and have a positive impact on the regional development. Serious work needs to be done to monitor their effectiveness, to improve the regulatory framework of Russian zones with special economic regimes and to link their priorities with the priorities of social and economic development of the regions.
