Brief Description of Research Activities

The transition of national economies of the industrially developed countries towards innovative economy of knowledge requires formation of a relevant governance model which will provide effective incorporation of intangible assets and intellectual products into economic circulation. The formation of such a model and its successful application to socioeconomic management practice has become one of the key factors of innovative competitive success of countries and of their corporate structures.

 

This calls for the development of a relevant Russian model of post-industrial management. To accomplish this task it is necessary to analyse the interrelations of the universal development of the world theory and practice of socioeconomic management, on the one hand, and historical nationally-determined experience of Russia, on the other. On the basis of this to elicit universal post-industrial features and national aspects of economic system management in Russia in the context of its current transition alongside the world community towards automatised knowledge-intensive production and information-industrial economy.

 

Conceptual elaboration of the Russian model of post-industrial management as a national key factor of innovative competitive success involves, firstly, understanding of the main historical peculiarities of the current economic epoch in comparison with other epochs and also setting the priorities for the national strategy of developing the innovative competitive advantages of the Russian economy and its corporate industrial structures. Secondly, new conditions of competitive economic management call for the development of adequate technologies, mechanisms and tools of socioeconomic management taking into account the national and historical peculiarities of the given countries. It is essential to elicit the basic trends of the historical process of formation of the Russian model of post-industrial management and its distinctive features.

 

The Russian post-industrial model of economic systems management should in the XXIth century become a key factor of growth of the country's national innovative competitive ability and of its corporate structures' dominant competitive positions in the national and international markets.
