Today Russia is facing three crises: the system crisis of global economy, the cyclic 2008 crisis and the home Russian crisis caused by reforms. To overcome the triple crisis it is necessary to implement fundamental transformations. Russia needs a scientific way. No other way is possible. Only national market governed by state and coordinated with economic laws can secure our country. State must play the principle role. The national market adequately controlled by state can guarantee economic security of Russia. It cannot be achieved either by boarder control or by the nuclear-missile shield. Market laws are stronger, they can ruin economy from inside. The article shows drawbacks of national economy management in soviet times, underlines incompetence of communist party leaders, who denied market and failed to coordinate industrial relations with market laws. The current situation in Russia was caused by non-scientific approach to state governing of the national market. Not a single political party in Russia understands the current situation and realizes that the country is ruled by business-market. The 20th and the early 21st century brought a high level of technology to our planet. In technological aspect mankind progressed, however science about market lagged behind. Therefore, society instead of developed form of market relations came to business-market, the most perverted and dangerous form of market in human history. Today Russia is choosing strategy for the future: it can be the inertial way of ineffective reforms extension or mobilization of intellectual resources necessary to restructure national economy on principles of developed economy with the leading role of state. Effective national economy can be created only by governance adequate to developed market, where the leading role belongs to state.
