Post-industrial paradigm of industrial policy in modern Russia: prospects and contradictions of re-industrialization

The article analyzes the contradictions and prospects of the process of re-industrialization as an expression of industrial policy in the modern Russian state. The article compares the conceptual approaches to the interpretation of the essence of post-industrial economic development that have been developed in the Western tradition. The concepts of “post-industrialism” and “re-industrialism” are characterized as close in meaning and origins, but at the same time containing fundamental differences. They are related to the globalist neoliberal orientation of the theory of post-industrial society, which questions the value and content of the sovereign national way of economic and political development. The author of the article proposes  a number of imperatives of re-industrialization, following which will ensure the continuity and efficiency of import substitution, as well as the restoration of industrial potential, taking into account the introduction of the latest scientific and technological domestic developments. The key point of the state industrial policy, based on the understanding of the role of knowledge in production and social sphere, is to provide institutional conditions for reindustrialization, its legal strengthening and development of a system of risk mitigation for private business as a way to stimulate investment in innovation.
