Abstract: This paper discusses the shortcomings of estimates of the level and quality of socio-economic development of the countries and regions of indicators due to excessive aggregation indicators taken into account that reflect various aspects of the social process. A modified human development index is suggested, which allows more clearly distinguish regions on levels and trends of their development, on the basis of a more complete and detailed calculation of different sides of the social process in its composition. With use of this index of cluster analysis a stable classification of regions of the Russian Federation on the characteristics of human development and their changes for 1994-2012 was obtained on the basis of the published official statistics. On the basis of the results were generated homogeneous groups of regions by values of human development index components taken into account and were identified the most important for their development directions of social and economic policy.
