Programme

What kind of place and role in the global economy and in the new world in general, influenced by the latest achievements in science and technology, may Russia have in the future? Global socioeconomic challenges in the first quarter of the 21st century gave rise to the transition to a new geopolitical world order and tectonic shifts in world economic development. How may foresight analysis in this area help to ensure that Russian interests are prioritized in future? In what way will the new world order be built, and what might its principles be?
