EXAMINATION OF ECONOMIC SECURITY PROBLEMS IN RUSSIA

The purpose of the article is to consider the process of exacerbation of the problems of ensuring economic security at the present stage of the country's development and to determine ways to resolve them. To achieve this goal, the method of system analysis is used, since security is formed by all parts and elements of the economy and state policy. First of all, theoretical approaches to the analysis of economic problems of security are revealed, taking into account the various views of scientists of the existing trends and schools in economic science. This made it possible to determine the principles by which the analysis of the state of the Russian economy in the world economic system was carried out, which made it possible to establish a number of acute factors of the growing danger of a deterioration in the country's situation. The first of these is the strengthening of the contradictions of the Russian economy to objective economic laws, which are expressed in the strengthening of the state of the economy, the reduction in the importance of private property, the growing contraction of freedom of market relations, competition, and entrepreneurship. The reasons for this negative phenomenon are shown: the imbalance of economic interests in favor of the ruling class of monopolists and officials, as well as the preservation of traditions of concentration of power and the use of administrative-bureaucratic methods of managing the economy. Another reason is the constant subordination of the economy to political goals to the detriment of the efficiency of the economy. In recent years, an increasingly negative effect has been given by the one-sided resource and extensive nature of the development of the economy, aimed at making big profits from the export of natural resources, which generates economic instability. The aggravation of these problems is also caused by the introduction of anti-Russian sanctions, which lead to a sharp restriction of Russia's foreign economic relations and the loss of important factors in the development of the economy. The article establishes the need for radical reforms of a democratic nature, leading to the expansion of market relations, balancing economic interests, limiting state intervention in the economy, eliminating red tape and corruption, and improving relations with foreign countries.
