Ideology as the Basis for an Effective State Development Strategy

Abstract

Section introduction. The Russian Journal of Philosophical Sciences is initiating a new section titled “Ideology and Strategy for Russia’s Development.” This section will feature social science and humanities articles, philosophical discussions and reflections, materials from round tables and conferences devoted to the issues of forming an ideology for Russia that is capable of responding to the numerous challenges faced by Russian society and state today. These articles are intended to stimulate reflection and discussion among the broad scientific community about the foundations and principles of our country’s ideology, which would take into account the civilizational, historical, and cultural peculiarities of Russia, traditions, and the set of spiritual and moral values that largely shape the national self-consciousness of the Russian people, defining the resulting vector of society’s development, and would become the foundation for the construction of new socio-political, financial-economic, and military-political structures aimed at ensuring the country’s national security, orderly, methodical, and sustainable development of Russia in the current complex and rapidly changing conditions.
