Abstract

In the framework of improving the methodological approach to state strategic planning, the study of the contingency of legal acts forming the system of strategic planning documents of the Russian Federation is of particular importance. The solution of complex problems that provide fundamental long-term interconnections of the issues of national security, territorial integrity and socio-economic development of the country on the basis of a strategic planning document system that is balanced by priorities and indicators affects the ability of the state to achieve its national development goals with limited resources. Ensuring meaningful coherence of the provisions of regulatory acts that form the system of strategic planning documents is an important management task, the solution of which should be based on bringing the strategic planning activities of all its participants to a single methodological basis. The aim of the study is to analyze and assess the status of substantive contingency of the provisions of regulatory legal acts regulating the requirements for the content, development and adjustment of the Strategy for scientific and technological development of the Russian Federation as part of the goal-setting process of the national strategic planning system. The methodology of work is based on a number of general scientific and special research methods: analysis, comparison, generalization, interpretation and qualitative analysis of documents. The conclusions are made that: the existing legal and methodological support does not actually allow to really improve the quality of strategic planning within the framework of goal-setting at the federal level in the field of scientific and technological development; the identified gaps in the strategic planning system require adjustments to the existing legal framework in terms of concretization of the provisions, in accordance with which the fundamental relationship and interdependence of regulatory legal acts should be ensured, as well as the concretization of existing relationships and coordination of the periods of development and timing of the adjustment of strategic planning documents in the field of scientific and technological development. The results of the expert developments obtained make it possible to clarify the gaps in the system of strategic planning documents in the field of scientific and technological development and substantiate the directions for its improvement and solving the identified problems and shortcomings.
