Legal priorities in the economic policy of modern Russia

Legal priorities are considered in the framework of the implementation of economic policy of modern Russia, due to the fact that this category has not only legal, but also political significance and is simultaneously aimed at political and legal results. We substantiate the position that legal priorities are especially significant in state policy and, above all, in economic policy, as they establish the development directions of the Russian economy and, above all, in the framework of innovation. The transition of Russia to digital technologies determines the development and formulation of legal priorities, which causes the intensification of statutory conditions creation to ensure this transition. We highlight the disadvantages in the legal support of the digital economy in Russia, namely: the minimum requirements for the digitalization process were not established, additional mechanisms that stimulate the introduction of digital technologies by market participants were not created, etc. We analyze the problem of the interdependence of states from each other in the context of the development of globalization and digital economy, which actualizes the value of state sovereignty. We emphasize that worldview change affects the understanding of state sovereignty and attitude towards it, but at the same time state sovereignty has absolute advantages and should not be limited by anyone. Modernization of the understanding of state sovereignty and attitude towards it actualizes the analysis of the state’s national interests, including national economic security, the well-being of population, the favorable dynamics of trade with specific partners, and the formation of a legal environment for entrepreneurship.
