In article in the context of studying of a problem of influence of agglomerative processes on formation of the general conditions of modernization of monotowns of the South of Kuzbass the system analysis of results of expert poll is carried out ( N = 137). Survey is conducted in 2016 for the purpose of assessment of processes and factors of an aglomerirovaniye in economy and the social sphere of the Kemerovo region increase in a konkurentosobnost and investment attractiveness of territories. Heads of local governments of municipal units which are a part of agglomerations, businessmen, scientists-economists of higher education institutions of Novokuznetsk and Kemerovo have acted as experts. Valid conclusion that advantages of agglomeration create necessary and additional conditions for the solution of problems of modernization of economy of monotowns of the South of Kuzbass. Agglomerative processes can be considered as the modernization potential of economy of monoprofile municipal units calculated, first of all, on internal sources of development of economy.
