CLUSTERING OF INNOVATION AS A STRUCTURAL FACTOR OF CYCLIC DYNAMICS IN THE ECONOMY
The article considers the clustering of innovations as a factor of structural stability, macroeconomic stability and national competitiveness. The dual role of innovation clustering in the reproductive system, which is manifested in the structural diversification and cyclic fluctuations at the macro level, is justified. The specificity of clustering of innovations in the Russian economy is determined and the main obstacles are identified. It is concluded that the cluster model of structure formation is endogenous and generates anticyclic forces. Therefore, the formation of the structure of the Russian economy on the cluster-network principle will reduce the negative impact of the economic cycle.
