The pro-competitive and anti-competitive practices of industrial policy are identified by the economic and historical analysis, the reasons for the application of differenet types of measures and their impact are identified and assessed. The author shows that despite the long tradition of selective industrial policy, the pro-competitive instruments have also been an important element of the Russian government's policies in different historical periods and often led to relatively successful results.
