Choosing a Priority Way to Increase the Level of Competitiveness of the Russian Economy in the Conditions of Uncertainty of the Global Conjuncture

This article is debatable and is devoted to the consideration of the problem of choosing ways to reform the Russian economy in the conditions of the crisis of the world economic system. The relevance of the proposed discussion is determined by the need to find effective instruments of economic regulation that allow the national economy of Russia to take a worthy competitive place in the changing geo-economic space. The article analyzes the main cause of crises in the world capitalist economy on the basis of the theory of K. Marx, which consists in the contradiction between the social nature of production and the private capitalist form of appropriation of the results of labor. The statistics of the world cyclical crises for the period from 1825 to the present are given. Cyclical crises, generated mainly by economic factors, are repeated periodically through 7-9-11 years with minor deviations. The author considers the cause of the US mortgage crisis and its impact on the economy of other countries, including Russia. Three possible ways of development of the Russian economy are shown: 1) pro-Western; 2) the development of the economy in the interests of the national bourgeoisie; 3) the NEP period of Soviet power, which is successfully used by China. The third way is objectively justified. This is evidenced by the statistics provided in this article. The necessity of changing in the near future the disastrous liberal course of managing the country's economy, of carrying out a left-centrist financial and economic course towards justified socialism, is justified. The conditions for the transition to a managerial revolution that provides a leap in the development of the country are outlined. The directions for reducing the dependence of the Russian economy on the conditions of the capitalist market are proposed.
