Memories of the Future: Traditional Russian Economic Practices in New Foreign Policy Conditions. Article one. Industrial Policy

Abstract

Economic and managerial practices of the Russian Empire and the USSR are a set of approaches that are updated in the current economic and political conditions. Industrial policy and import substitution are a set of measures that have already been repeatedly applied in Russian and Soviet history. The classic liberal model of the modern Russian economy provides for the limited use of such tools. This is due to the fact that there are no relevant management structures.
