On the Strategy for Implementing the Import Substitution Policy and Ensuring Technological Sovereignty of the Russian Federation

The article examines the issues of developing a policy in the ï¬ eld of import substitution and ensuring technological sovereignty. The prerequisites for the emergence of the need to solve them are considered. Sanction pressure on the Russian economy led to the departure of investors from the domestic market from states that pursue an unfriendly policy towards the Russian Federation. This, in turn, led to the rupture of economic and technological ties. It forced us to look for a replacement for imported goods from these countries, to implement an import substitution policy. Further escalation of sanctions pressure required the development and implementation of a policy to ensure technological sovereignty. This required a new look at the issues of innovative development. Russia has experience in implementing a policy aimed at building an innovative economy. Based on its analysis, conclusions are made about the risks of ensuring innovative development by borrowing foreign technologies, the need to implement a technological development policy based on our own resources. The article considers the Strategy for Scientiï¬ c and Technological Development of the Russian Federation and the Concept of Technological Development for the period up to 2030 as strategic planning documents related to the implementation of policies in the ï¬ eld of import substitution and ensuring technological sovereignty. The article considers the problems of the functioning of the strategic planning system, proposes approaches to coordinating the strategy for ensuring technological development with industry strategies and the strategy of spatial development. Options for carrying out these agreements are proposed and compared.
