Food Provision of the Russian Population through the Prism of Numbers

DOI: 10.33917/es-2.206.2026.86-97

Current state of the food security is ambiguous. On the one hand, physical availability of domestically produced food is obvious, but on the other — limited economic accessibility of this food, primarily due to inflation, is equally obvious. Today, Russia is rightfully considered a global grain superpower and is the world’s leading wheat supplier. However, Russian citizens face steadily rising prices for bread and baked goods made of wheat flour, exceeding the average inflation rate. In this regard, a detailed analysis of the actual data on provision of the Russian population with basic food products is required.

Sustainability of the Power Institutions under Conditions of the Counteraction Centers Activity

DOI: 10.33917/es-2.206.2026.6-13

Strengthening of the vertical structure of federal governance in our country in recent years has encountered resistance in a number of Russian regions, which still remains latent. The article, based on general systems theory, proposes measures to maintain stability of the political regime’s power institutions in the face of active counteraction centers: control of financial and commodity flows, transport and communication channels that allows to cut off supply of resources to destructive forces, block their interaction within a region, between regions and with foreign control and support centers, preserving the possibility of the federal center to operate on sentiments of the local elites and large groups of population.

Countering Coups D’etat and Attempts to Forcefully Seize the Power in the Russian Federation

DOI: 10.33917/es-1.205.2026.14-23

Attempts to violently seize the power in post-Soviet states can be reduced to operation of complex organizational systems, which means that adaptive application of general principles and tools for managing such systems is possible. It is necessary to analyze such processes from scientific point of view and proactively plan measures or better yet, systemic mechanisms, to counter these processes, which will ensure the stability of public administration at various levels of hierarchy and administrative infrastructure of the Russian Federation.

Requiem for Cybernetics. The Genesis of Digital

DOI: 10.33917/es-6.204.2025.16-25

In the present work the authors practically present a requiem for cybernetics — a classical management science that has fulfilled its historical role, but is now giving way to new approaches emerging at the junction of the philosophy of knowledge, complexity theory, the cognitive and social sciences. The article gives a historical and philosophical overview of cybernetics — from Plato, Ampere and Wiener to the present day. It is demonstrated that classical cybernetic paradigm — a mechanistic control model with feedback loops and representation of the world as a set of “finite state machines” — has proven insufficient in the era of dynamically changing, weakly deterministic, self-organizing living systems. Analysis of the causes of the methodological crisis in cybernetics at the turn of the 20th and 21st centuries is provided and it is argued that its resources are exhausted — further progress requires transition to new conceptual ideas. The authors propose a new engineering approach to understanding the World (K3-Engineering) and an original concept for Genesis of the digital — “Digital Genesis” — as a promising replacement.

New Model of the Russian Economy Management in the Context of Hybrid Risks and Threats

DOI: 10.33917/es-5.203.2025.6-19

The article examines the problems of transforming the system for economic management of the Russian Federation, which could make it function in conditions of hybrid risks and critical threats. A set of measures for transforming management systems is structured, a number of functional stages is identified. The article substantiates the need to develop both general management and specific technical measures aimed at ensuring that the controlled contour of the system of state and corporate management centers within the resource supply infrastructure should be prepared for these types of risks and threats. The author concludes that the most appropriate management tool is adoption of a digital “twin” model of an economic entity (organizational agent). Obtained results will enable authorities to address organizational challenges in the event of the “drop-out of control centers at various levels” in order to operate with industry (regional) control centers and to work in a dialogue mode with structures of the Russian Federation Government and infrastructure organizations.

Accounting Reorganization as a Source of Economic Development Based on Scientific Achievements and Mass Innovation

DOI: 10.33917/es-4.202.2025.98-107

The article dwells on the problems of financing fixed assets in industry and scientific developments. A new financial technology for financing non-current assets at the expense of current assets and funds of targeted financing is proposed. The authors have developed fundamentally new sources of investment financing through restoring the depreciation fund and creating a new Innovative Development Fund, taking into account new financial technologies for accounting operations. The problem of dividing financial flows into working capital and investment assets according to balance sheet accounting objects is solved by creating new balance sheet accounts reflecting various sources of financing and by registering certificates of market value assessment of rights to the intellectual activity results. New forms of reporting on the use of intellectual property objects are proposed.
