Abstract
The purpose of this study is to examine the institutional approach to the role of the state in the modern economy. Based on the analysis of various approaches to the study of this phenomenon, the paper formulates the following conclusions. It has been established that the modern stage of economic development is characterized by a revision of the assessment of the role of the state in regulating the market. It is shown that the state at the same time stabilizes the institutional environment and initiates its changes. It is argued that the state form of management of large communities by establishing and changing the rules of economic activity by minimizing transaction costs is the most common today. It is determined that the key results of state regulation of the economy are the support of innovation activity, promotion of scientific and technological progress, creation of conditions conducive to a favorable investment climate, development of various social programs. It is shown that state participation in socio-economic processes should be balanced and effective, and excessive intervention can lead to corruption and restrict competition.
