Structural levels of the national economic system: management aspect by G. N. Ryazanova, P. S. Tolkachev

“…It has been noted, that to ensure the socio-economic integrity of the national economy, it is necessary to transform the generic state of society into a centrally-organized.According to the authors, to implement the transformation of the socio-economic space into an integrated socioeconomic system, it is necessary to coordinate three hierarchically subordinate levels: macro, meso, and microeconomic agents. The macroeconomic agent forms subject relations between all hierarchical levels, which require a high level of government: it cannot be a command economy, since this strategy of economic development paralyzes competition and free enterprise, but there can be no purely market economy, because the “invisible hand of the market” unable to ensure sustainable harmonious development of the economy without government intervention.It has been concluded about the need for an integrated nature of management of the Russian economy and the tasks for improving the system of management of the Russian economy have been determined. …”
