Abstract
Relevance. The process of globalization, based on digital technology, is the main task and simultaneously the problem of our time. On the one hand, globalization should lead to the formation of a single world economic system based on the integration into a single international network of all national and international markets of capital, labor, goods, and services. The growing scale of production processes implies an increasing role of digital technologies and new technological developments, as well as the development of information and communication systems, which automatically increases the importance of production, scientific, technical, and technological factors.
On the other hand, the emerging trends in the uncertain and unstable conditions of society lead not only to the monopolization of resources and the concentration of economic and political power by transnational corporations, multinational banks and foundations, whose interests often conflict with the interests of society as a whole, but also lead to increased tensions between states.
The purpose of the study is to analyze the process of digitalization as a basis for sustainable socio-economic development of the country in modern conditions and identify trends in socio-economic processes under conditions of globalization.
The objectives are to identify whether the course adopted by Russia towards digitalization of the economy contributes to economic growth, improving national security and ensuring a decent standard of living for the population of the country.
Methodology. The study used methods of comparative analysis, economic-statistical and methods of expert evaluations.
Results. The digital economy, based on advanced technology, is not only an indicator of economic and social development but also generates the basis of economic instability and inequality.
Conclusions. If the goal of digital technology development is to be set, it should be aimed primarily at introducing it into the real sector of the economy. This is a question of the existence of the state itself: it is impossible to manage machinery and industrial technological processes without modern means of control.
