State Programs of Innovative Development and Mechanism for Their Implementation (The Case of Special Economic Zones of Russia and China)

Starting in the last third of the 20th century, with the strategy of import substitution and export expansion, China is gradually moving along the path of concentrating the full technological cycle of production in the country. Leading Chinese industrial corporations, entering global markets, are trying to gain control over the most profitable parts of the development, manufacture and distribution of products. The success achieved by the PRC in economic development would not have been possible if the authorities did not focus on industrial modernization and increasing the costs of the scientific and technological complex. Moreover, maintaining high growth rates and China’s striving to reach the level of more developed countries in terms of its main economic indicators require an increase in investments in the development of science and technology and improvement of the implementation processes of scientific and technological achievements in production. Aware of this, the leadership of the People's Republic of China is developing a well-thought-out policy with respect to the research sector, adopting programs for the development of science and technology within it. The purpose of this work is to study state programs of innovative development of the PRC (for example, special economic zones), mechanisms for their implementation and the possibility of creating a special economic zone in the Russian-Chinese business park, using the experience of the PRC. Development of recommendations for the deepening of Russian-Chinese cooperation on the basis of the creation in Russia of a specialized Russian-Chinese SEZ.
