Relativism in Modern Russian Economy

The article explores the phenomenon of relativism in the modern economy. The aim of the work was to reflect the manifestations of relativism in the modern Russian economy, to identify the truth of preferences and ways to preserve its integrity. The study is based on a system approach and descriptive statistics methods. The article shows the relevance of relativism in the modern economy against the background of a critical moment in the existence of the world order and the lack of stability of the Russian socio-economic formation. The analysis of the forms and patterns of the relativism manifestation in the modern economy revealed its effect as a postulate. The study revealed the norm of relativism in the form of stability, and its manifestation is the transition from the concept of sustainable development to sustainable relativism. The paper reveals the connection of the tectological stability of the Russian economy with the growth of transfers and gross investments in fixed assets. The manifestation of relativism in the modern Russian economy is due to the structuring of the world order in the classical hierarchy from developing totalitarian countries to developed democratic countries. Maintaining the integrity of the modern Russian economy is ensured by total state control over all aspects of public and private life. The process of maintaining integrity consolidates the Russian economy at the level of "raw" countries, which existence quality is determined by the stability of global demand for hydrocarbons, and the duration by their reserves. The manifestation of relativism in the modern Russian economy is associated with the instability of the socio-economic formation caused by increasing globalization and a critical moment in the existence of the modern world order. Under these conditions, the truth of the preferences of the Russian economy is due to the requirement to preserve its integrity. The way to preserve the integrity of the “raw” Russian economy is limited by total state control over all aspects of public and private life.
