Abstract

Currently, there is growing awareness of the importance of successful commercialization of innovations and the spread of knowledge, provided that an efficient relationship exists between management and scientific activity, to guarantee the stable development of the country in the context of global competition. This article discusses the possibility of solving strategic issues by supporting scientific research, contributing to the creation of scientific and technological advantages on the innovation market, and guaranteeing competitiveness and successful development of the national economy. Aim. The goal is to analyze structural problems in the modern, unstable economy that prevent sustainable and dynamic development in the fields of science, education, and innovation in Russia. Results. Using theoretical analysis of the problems associated with the development and implementation of effective national policies in the fields of science, innovation, and education, the author(s) concluded that better management processes, increased transparency, strengthened law enforcement, and sustained campaigns against corruption are needed to increase the benefit from investments in the fields of science, innovation, technology, and education. This paper explains the possibilities of achieving a balance between national and international participation in scientific research, fundamental and applied research, generation of new knowledge, generation of knowledge that is in demand in the market, science for the public good, and science as a driving force behind business. The article includes proposals on how to remove legal obstacles to enhance cross-border flows of knowledge, with the exchange of researchers, promotion of scientific coauthorship, and promotion of coownership of the legal rights to inventions.
