Abstract

Objective: to determine the vector of changes for Russia’s recovery from the crisis and transformation of the innovation model in the context of trends of the 4th scientific and technological revolution. To this end, it is necessary to identify internal systemic problems that have worsened under the influence of sanctions and hinder the country’s scientific and technological development.

Methods: the system analysis of phenomena and processes in the scientific, technological and socio-economic spheres is based on the methodological approach by Academician D. S. Lvov to the study of Russia under reforms as a precursor of the systemic economic paradigm developed under the guidance of G. B. Kleyner, a corresponding member of the Russian Academy of Sciences.

Results: a decline in the economy, science and social sphere has been revealed, as was predicted by Academician D. S. Lvov, in case the problems of the transition period are not solved. The essential obstacles are revealed, which hinder both the country leaving the bifurcation point and economic growth based on intellectual factors and advanced technologies. Statistics are presented demonstrating the obsolescence of industrial equipment, the reduced investment in the knowledge economy, the stagnation of innovative activity of organizations, and the worsening social imbalances. Based on the analysis results, the conclusions of D. S. Lvov and other scientists and specialists, guidelines are proposed for changing the model of scientific and technological development; the leading directions for changing the state policy are given. Conclusions and recommendations refer to the fundamental factors not only of the model of scientific and technological development, but also of the economic model as a whole.

Scientific novelty: consists in a new format of an approach to the formulation of the problem of scientific and technological development of the Russian Federation and its solution through the prism of D. S. Lvov’s scientific heritage. Provisions of his teaching are actualized and their relevance for contemporary еconomy is substantiated in relation to identifying a crisis situation similar to the current one in scale and influence, as well as to determining the ways out of the crisis.

Practical significance: the results of the study can become the basis for expanding the system of knowledge within the problem of scientific and technological development, as well as be used in the practical activities of public authorities to develop solutions for crisis management of the economy.
