Abstract

This article examines the strategic importance of the mahalla institution in the processes of economic integration based on the theory of institutional economics, the concept of social capital, and modern approaches to local governance. The study considers the mahalla as a hybrid institution that coordinates interactions between the state, the market, and society.The role of the mahalla system in the targeted allocation of resources, development of entrepreneurship, promotion of employment, reduction of poverty, and stimulation of regional development is scientifically substantiated.

In addition, the strategic role of the mahalla institution in economic integration is revealed through a comparative analysis with international scientific approaches. The research findings indicate that the institutional potential of the mahalla in ensuring inclusive economic growth and social stability is high.
