Ideas of a New Model of Public Management of the Russian Economy (Institutional and Legal Aspects)

The concepts of “public power”, “model of economy”, “model of economic development”, “model of public management of the economy” are considered, the definition of the concept of the model of public management of the economy is formulated as simplified to the most essential elements of the description of the economic management system using the tools of public power.
Such basic elements of the system of public management of the economy as the public apparatus (institutional element) and the system of rules of economic behavior (definitions, prescriptions, permits, restrictions, prohibitions), clothed in the form of normative legal acts (normative element), are identified and described.
Attention is drawn to the “cloudy” (uncertain) nature of the existing system of public management of the economy in Russia, due, in particular, to the absence of a register of state and municipal institutions, non-governmental and non-municipal organizations to which certain powers of state authorities or local self-government are delegated (including powers in the field of economics). According to the author, the uncertainty of the boundaries of the public administration system hinders effective control over the exercise of powerin the field of economics, accurate assessment of the real “administrative pressure” on business, reform of the public administration system of the economy.
The underestimation of the role of courts as an important part of the system of public management of the economy is noted. The necessity of endowing the Supreme Court of the Russian Federation with the authority to give an interpretation of normative legal acts mandatory for all law enforcement officers, with the exception of issues referred to the competence of the Constitutional Court of the Russian Federation is substantiated.
It is concluded that the administrative reform carried out in Russia in 2003—2004 did not ensure the achievement of the goals of increasing the efficiency of public management of the economy. The main reason for this was the disregard of the cultural experience of the country (including the real ethics of power relations), as well as the provisions of the theory of management relating to the criteria of expediency and independence of control. With a threefold decrease in the number of inspections of economic entities conducted by all categories of public control bodies in the period from 2013 to 2021, the number and number of personnel of control and supervisory bodies (including their territorial bodies) remained the same. In order to achieve the goals of optimizing the control and supervisory system, it is proposed to assess the feasibility of forming a control branch of government subordinate directly to the head of state and the law. A discussion is proposed on the possibility of achieving the goals of optimizing the system of public management of the economy based on the integration of institutions of self-regulation and compliance.
The idea of reducing the volume, gap and inconsistency of economic legislation by creating a set of laws and codifying a number of its complex industries (including competitive, contractual, tariff, and business) is formulated.
