Conceptual Nature

“National interests” form the basis for the formation of not only foreign, but also the internal policy of the state. An objective indicator of this is the totality of socio-economic, political, organizational, legal actions of government bodies and management on their implementation. The practical expediency of the phenomenon of “national interests” depends on its theoretical consistency. As a new phenomenon for modern Russia, “national interests” require its understanding and scientific development. Guided by the provisions of political documents in the field of ensuring national security of the Russian Federation, relying on the results obtained by researchers in the field of philosophy, political science, the history of legal and political studies, ethnography, etc., the author of the article has undertaken a search for the conceptual nature and essential properties of this multicomponent phenomenon.

In the early 1990 s, the foreign policy concept in Russia was based on the policy of «Euro-Atlanticism», which presumed orientation towards the Western model of development, integration with the Western countries and a conflict-free vision of international relations. But unlike the era of «Cold War» with the USSR, the Western countries did not consider the Russian Federation to be equal in status and did not hasten the process of establishing strategic partnership. Russia has never managed to establish an alliance with the Western countries and become «part of the Western world», «Euro-Atlanticism» has not proved itself. In the late 1990s, a shift began to a course of «multi-vector» foreign policy, implying a multipolar system of international relations. Moreover, at the end of the twentieth century, the Russian Federation faced growing threats from the United States and the countries that make up the military-political bloc of NATO, which necessitated a rethinking of priorities and possibilities for ensuring the protection of Russia’s national interests and security, and the development and adoption of new doctrines and concepts on the subject. This article thus deals with the process of establishing State priorities on the basis of the principle of protecting the national interests and safeguarding the national security of the Russian Federation during the period 1999-2007.

The paper considers a number of changes made to the Strategy of the Russian Federation National Security, which was approved by the Decree of the President of the Russian Federation on July 2, 2021, in comparison with the previous strategy approved in 2015. The study is important since a new strategy has been recently enacted, and a uniform understanding of the key concepts reflected in this document seems essential. Some issues related to the fixed definitions of such concepts as “national security of the Russian Federation”, “national interests of the Russian Federation”, “strategic national priorities of the Russian Federation”, “national security protection”, “threat to national security”, “national security protection system” are analyzed. The study compares the definition of the concept “national security” fixed in the Strategy of the Russian Federation National Security, which was approved in 2021, with the options for other definitions given in the similar documents that were previously in force in Russia during the post-Soviet period of Russian history. The study additionally focuses on the transformation of national interests of the Russian Federation, which are enlisted in the recent strategy. In particular, the paper discusses the wording “saving the people of Russia, developing human potential, improving the quality of life and the well-being of citizens”. The author emphasizes that undervaluation of the strategic importance of the social sphere as a security factor in the course of economic and political reforms may cause threat of loss of citizens’ confidence in government officials, which, under certain conditions, can lead society and the country to a constitutional crisis and the collapse of federal status.

The authors emphasize that the system of strategic planning in Russia, which began to be updated in 2009-2014, has a number of methodological problems, which does not allow for the effective implementation of legislatively fixed basic principles (tradition of power and continuity), and makes it impossible to phrase a vertical goal setting in the strategic planning system thus violating the principle of decomposition of goals and objectives, and does not allow to achieve a balance in terms of validity of program and strategic documents. The article emphasizes that the principles of systematization of the whole complex of strategic planning documents need to be detailed. It is necessary to define more clearly their hierarchical structure, to develop a typology of these documents, depending on the purpose, the characteristics of vertical and horizontal relationships. The authors conclude that the basic system forming document of the goal-setting should be the “National Security Strategy of the Russian Federation”, which defines Russia’s national interests and strategic priorities taking into account the challenges and threats to national security. All other strategic goal-setting documents of a long-term nature should be formed as tools for the implementation of the provisions of this basic strategy; their task is to clarify and detail the directions for ensuring strategic national priorities in relevant areas. It is substantiated that in the hierarchy of strategic planning documents, when developing the “Guidelines for the Government of the Russian Federation”, the provisions of the medium-term forecast of the social and economic development of the Russian Federation, as well as the Decrees of the President of the Russian Federation that legally formulate the Addresses of the President of the Russian Federation should be taken into account. The main areas of activity of the Government of the Russian Federation are a reference point for the development of plans for the activities of federal executive bodies where the provisions of laws mention the development priorities of economic sectors from industry strategies. It is medium-term forecasts, according to the authors, that are the tool for the transition from the goal-setting to planning and programming.

The article presents the study of leading political and economic challenges to the national security and the realisation of national interests of the Russian Federation. In the article, the author defines the term “challenge” in the framework of fulfilment of national interests of Russia. Firstly, the author demonstrated the main differences between the terms “challenge” and “threat”, because domestic researchers consider these concepts as of similar meaning. The author defines the challenges as prerequisites for threats, based on the lack of subjective intentions and objective capabilities of the subject to harm the national interests of the object. Further, the author identifies the causes and characteristics of economic and political challenges in conditions of ensuring national security. The author identified primary objective factors determining internal and external threats: Russia’s position in the international arena, geographical features, and a new model of economic development. The author considers the lack of a competent social policy, the lack of a timely reaction of regional authorities to social needs, and mineral export dependence as subjective factors determining internal and external challenges. Finally, the author determined the influence of challenges and threats on the social sphere of the state, where political and economic factors equally influence the implementation of social projects.
