Survey of Industrial Strategic Planning Documents in Russia
The main aim of the paper is to present a critical appraisal of the current practice in drawing up industrial strategic planning documents in Russia. The results of the survey of industrial strategic plans reveal serious drawbacks in the process of formulation and implementation of strategic plans, such as unclear status of industrial strategies in decision-making process, lack of transparency in dealing with external experts and the general public, problems with implementation of monitoring and control procedures. As a result, despite all the efforts devoted to develop strategic plans there is a high risk that new documents will have little practical significance in the actual decision-making process.
