Key technologies of the future technological order. Technological structure. Concept, characteristics, impact on economic growth. Obvious reasons for cyclicity
Technological order- ... a set of related industries that have a single technical level and develop synchronously. The change in the technological structures that dominate the economy predetermines the uneven course of scientific and technological progress (author Lopatnikov, 2003)
Theory of Periodic Cycles of Development socio-economic formations is substantiated by a significant number of researchers. The largest number supporters has a model developed in the 20s last century, Soviet economist Nikolai Kondratiev. He drew attention to the fact that in the long-term dynamics one can observe the cyclical regularity of economic indicators. Kondratiev calculated that the phases of economic growth and recession phases alternate with a frequency of 45-60 years. Such fluctuations in the economy were called "Kondratieff cycles" by followers. The theory has a significant number of opponents and critical reviews, but nevertheless provides an opportunity to substantiate the timing of global crises, as well as periods and main drivers of active growth.
At the end of the 20th century, using new opportunities, the periods of “Kondratieff cycles” were specified and a model of technological structures was developed. Key Features ways are clearly illustrated by the table

Characteristics of technological structures
Scientific and technological progress is the main engine for the development of the world economy. Its result is technological innovations that lead to an increase in labor productivity, the modernization of means of production and the transformation of the current technological order.
In the economic science of the 21st century, the theory of technological patterns, which is based on the concepts of the scientist-economist N. D. Kondratiev, is becoming increasingly relevant. According to this theory, the scientific and technological revolution develops in waves by alternating technological modes in cycles of 50-70 years. Such cycles end with crises, followed by the transition of productive forces to a higher level of development.
The technological order has a complex internal structure. Its core is formed by industries in which the use of this type of energy is dominant. Currently, 5 industrial and 1 post-industrial technological cycles are known. The first way was formed in 1785 and was based on the energy of water. In 1830, steam and coal energy was discovered, which marked the transition to the second technological order. The third wave of technical and economic transformations occurred in 1890-1940. At this stage, there was an introduction to the production of electric energy. The beginning of the fourth order was laid in 1940, it was based on the energy of hydrocarbons, on the invention and use of the internal combustion engine. The fifth technological cycle began in 1990 and is predicted to last until 2040. Its basis is electronic and nuclear energy.
As it enters the fifth order and masters its basic capabilities, the world economy is preparing to meet the first post-industrial order. According to theoretical calculations, the transition to it will occur in 2040, however, due to the acceleration of scientific and technological progress, it may occur earlier. Nano- and biotechnologies will be the basis of the new “Kondratiev wave”.
Transition of developed countries to the sixth mode
The economy of a single country cannot belong to a single technological order. The percentage of belonging to the current way of development at this stage of development determines the degree of development of the state's economy. At present, the economies of the United States, Japan and China are most equipped with advanced technologies. In the USA, for example, the share of the productive forces of the fourth technological order is 20%, the fifth - 60%, and about 5% falls on the sixth order.
The United States is one of the first to enter the first post-industrial technological cycle. Important factors for this were a stable and sustainable political system, an effective mechanism for economic growth and scientific and technological progress, as well as a dominant position in the system of international institutions. One of the main priorities of US government policy is to encourage scientific and technological progress, and fundamental achievements in the field of knowledge are officially recognized as the basis of economic growth. Funding for research and development in the United States is made to a greater extent by own funds American corporations and firms, and the share of the federal budget is not even a third.
Japan, a state that was destroyed as a result of World War II about 70 years ago, is currently a leader in world science and technology. According to the research company "Economist Intelligence Unit", Japan ranks first among the most developed innovative powers in the world, ahead of the United States and Switzerland. These achievements have contributed close cooperation all areas of the innovation industry, in which the state, research institutes and business entities are involved. According to forecast estimates National Institute science and technology policy, during the period of the sixth technological order, Japan will achieve great results in the field of high-tech innovation, which will allow it to finally consolidate its leading position among competitors.
Russia's readiness formeeting a new order
It is too early to talk about the formation of the sixth technological order in Russia. The share of technologies of the fifth order is about 10% (in the most developed sectors: the military-industrial complex and the aerospace industry), more than 50% of technologies belong to the fourth level, and almost a third to the third, which prevailed in developed countries in the 1920s. The backlog of Russia in economic development from the leading countries of the world reaches 45-50 years. The complexity of the task facing domestic science and technology lies in the fact that in order for Russia to join the ranks of states with the sixth technological mode over the next 10 years, it “needs, figuratively speaking, to jump over the stage - through the fifth mode” .
Put by the President of Russia V.V. According to Putin, the task of “creating a smart economy” determines the need for the advanced development of science and the dynamic implementation of its achievements. But the established forms and methods of management, organization and financing of work are a big obstacle on the way to such a breakthrough. Only fundamental changes in these areas can stabilize the situation. But they are possible only if science stands out as an independent branch of the economy. The leading countries of the world have already come to this, and this allows them to have a powerful scientific backlog and an active system of innovations. In Russia, dynamic innovative development is still only a strategic goal.
Russia's lag in innovative development is also associated with the lack of a systematic regulatory framework governing the scientific sector. The imperfection of legislation is a great hindrance to the development of science. In 2005, the section "Basic research and promotion of scientific and technological progress" was eliminated in the structure of the federal budget. Currently fundamental research are included in the section "National issues", and applied ones - in the section "National economy". Loss of connection between fundamental and applied research at the creation stage financial plans testifies to the inefficiency of the functioning of research activities. In addition, the Ministry of Education and Science, together with the Russian Academy of Sciences, develops proposals only for the budget for basic research. The program part of investing in applied research under state programs is formed by the Ministry of Economic Development, the non-program part - by the Ministry of Finance, which refutes the principle of the unity of the technological chain.
According to V.V. Putin, the concept of socio-economic development of Russia "Strategy 2020" is designed to make Russia "the most attractive country for life" by 2020. But the adoption of the project coincided with the economic crisis, which made the guidelines prescribed in the document unrealizable. At the end of 2010, the prime minister was instructed to update the strategy, but this issue remained unresolved due to the many contradictions inherent in it.
An important role in the socio-economic development of Russia is played by research organizations operating on its territory, main task which is the improvement of the state innovation system. These include JSC Rusnano, JSC Rossiyskaya venture company», innovation center"Skolkovo" and "Nanotechnological Society of Russia".
Prospects for the introduction of future technologies
The transition to the sixth technological mode opens up great opportunities for humanity. The synthesis of achievements in the main technological areas (bio- and nanotechnologies, genetic engineering, membrane and quantum technologies, micromechanics, photonics, thermonuclear energy) can lead, for example, to the creation of a quantum computer or artificial intelligence. It is also possible to reach a fundamentally new level in the management systems of the state, society, and the economy.
More recently, self-propelled transport, self-guided aviation, various kinds of robots, whose intelligence develops like a human, belonged to the realm of fantasy, and any attempts to convince people that soon it will be possible to perform any physical work only with the help of thoughts caused them distrust. However, at present, based scientific research one of the most influential and famous theoretical physicists of the XXI century, S.U. Hawking developed such revolutionary mechanisms as a self-driving car, a wheelchair controlled by the power of thought. In addition, mechanisms that respond to movements without direct contact and much more are becoming widespread.
“Informatization leads to the redistribution of labor. We are moving towards improving the quality of people's lives. Everything will change: the machine will do the hard work, the man will do the smart one, ”says CEO Russian representative office of Cisco Systems Pavel Betsis.
The need for a transition to the sixth technological mode for Russia is predetermined by a number of factors, the most significant of which is the technological backwardness of the Russian economy. “Understand, we cannot catch up,” says Academician of the Russian Academy of Sciences E. N. Kablov. It is necessary to make a sharp breakthrough and reach a new level of development, using together our own achievements and the experience of the world's leading powers.
Obstacles on the way toentry into a new way
The transition of the state economy to a new way of life is a long and multifaceted process and carries a lot of associated risks. "Threat modern society is the division of people into those who have valuable information, who know how to handle new technologies and those who do not have such skills.
An acute problem of the national economy at present is the unfavorable investment climate, which threatens financial security innovation activity and there is a risk of loss of venture business investments. Moreover, due to the increased risk of losing investments in the development of new technologies, the problem of distrust of foreign investors is exacerbated.
According to the theory of N.D. Kondratiev, the transition from one technological cycle to another is accompanied by a systemic crisis. Against the background of how the economy of our state went through previous crises (1998, 2008), it is reasonable to assume that the coming crisis of the productive forces of the fifth order may become a big obstacle for Russia on the way to entering the sixth. The risk of untimely overcoming the crisis is of no small importance, since the strategic task of reducing Russia's lag in socio-economic development from the leading countries of the world is under threat.
Overcoming all the obstacles that stand in the way of innovative development opens the horizons of vast opportunities for Russia. The country has sufficient potential for this, it remains only to use it effectively.
First order (wave)
The first wave (1785-1835) formed a technological order based on new technologies in the textile industry, the use of water energy.
Second order (wave)
The second wave (1830-1880) - the accelerated development of transport (the construction of railways, steam shipping), the emergence of mechanical production in all industries based on a steam engine.
Third order (wave)
The third wave (1880-1940) is based on the use of electrical energy in industrial production, the development of heavy engineering and the electrical industry based on the use of rolled steel, and new discoveries in the field of chemistry. Radio communication, telegraph, automobiles were introduced. Large firms, cartels, syndicates, trusts appeared. The market was dominated by monopolies. The concentration of banking and financial capital began.
Fourth order (wave)
The fourth wave (1930-1990) formed a way of life based on further development energy with the use of oil and oil products, gas, communications, new synthetic materials. This is the era of mass production of cars, tractors, aircraft, various types of weapons, consumer goods. Computers and software products for them, radars appeared and became widespread. The atom is used for military and then for peaceful purposes. Organized mass production based on conveyor technology. The market is dominated by oligopolistic competition. Transnational and multinational companies appeared, which made direct investments in the markets of various countries.
Fifth order (wave)
The fifth wave (1985-2035) is based on achievements in the field of microelectronics, computer science, biotechnology, genetic engineering, new types of energy, materials, space exploration, satellite communications, etc. There is a transition from disparate firms to a single network of large and small companies connected by an electronic network based on the Internet, carrying out close cooperation in the field of technology, product quality control, innovation planning.

Third technological order (1880–1930)
The main feature is the widespread use of electric motors and the rapid development of electrical engineering. At the same time there is a specialization of steam engines. The consumption of alternating current becomes dominant, and the construction of power plants has begun. Coal becomes the most important energy carrier during the period of domination of this way of life. At the same time, oil began to gain positions in the energy market, although it is worth noting that it became the leading energy carrier only at the fourth TU.
The chemical industry made great strides during this period. Of the many chemical and technological innovations, the following have gained importance: the ammonia process for obtaining soda, the production of sulfuric acid by the contact method, and electrochemical technology.
Fourth technological order (1930–1970)
By the 1940s technology, which is the basis of the third TR, has reached the limits of its development and improvement. Then the formation of the fourth TU began, which laid down new directions in the development of technology. The necessary material and technical base had already been formed by this time. For example, the following were created and mastered:
- road infrastructure;
- networks telephone connection;
- new technologies and infrastructure for oil production;
- technological processes in non-ferrous metallurgy.
During the period of the third TU, an internal combustion engine was introduced, which became one of the basic innovations of the fourth TU. At the same time, the formation of the automotive industry and the development of the first samples of caterpillar transport and special equipment, which formed the core of the fourth technical specification, took place. The industries that formed the core of the fourth TU include the chemical industry (primarily organic chemistry), the automotive industry, and the production of motorized weapons. This stage is characterized by a new machine base, comprehensive mechanization of production, automation of many basic technological processes, widespread use of qualified work force, the growth of specialization of production.
During life cycle the fourth TU, the outstripping development of the electric power industry continued. Oil becomes the leading energy source. Petroleum products are used as the main fuel for almost all types of transport - diesel locomotives, cars, airplanes, helicopters, rockets. Oil has also become an essential raw material for chemical industry. With the expansion of the fourth TU, a global telecommunications system is being created based on telephone and radio communications. There has been a transition of the population to a new type of consumption, characterized by mass consumption of durable goods, synthetic goods.
Fifth technological order (1970–2010)
By the 1970s in developed countries, the fourth TR has reached the limits of its expansion. Since that time, the fifth TU begins to form, which now dominates in most developed countries. This mode can be defined as the mode of information and communication technologies. Microelectronics and software are key factors. Among the most important industries should highlight the production of automation and telecommunications equipment.
As already noted, most of the innovations of the new mode are formed in the phase of dominance of the previous mode. This is especially well demonstrated in this case. According to experts, about 80% of the main innovations of the fifth TU were introduced before 1984. And the earliest introduction dates back to 1947 - the period of the creation of the transistor. The first EMW appeared in 1949, the first operating system- in 1954, silicon transistor - in 1954. These inventions served as the foundation for the creation of the fifth TU. Simultaneously with the development of the semiconductor industry, there was rapid progress in the field of software - by the end of the 1950s. a family of first high-level programming languages appeared.
However, the spread of the new fifth technical standard was hindered by the underdevelopment of the leading industries, the formation of which, in turn, ran into limited demand, since new technologies were not yet sufficiently effective and were not accepted by existing institutions. The introduction of the microprocessor in 1971 was turning point in the development of the fifth TU and opened up new opportunities for rapid progress in all areas.
The invention of the microcomputer and the rapid advances in software that came with it made information technology convenient, cheap and accessible for both industrial and non-industrial consumption. The driving branches of the information order have entered a phase of maturity.
The beginning of the fifth TR is associated with the development of new means of communication, digital networks, computer programs and genetic engineering. The fifth TU actively generates the creation and continuous improvement of both new machines and equipment (computers, numerical control (CNC), robots, machining centers, various kinds of automata) and information systems (databases, local and integrated computing systems, information languages and information processing software). Importance among the leading industries of the fifth TU in the manufacturing industry have flexible automated production(GAP). Flexible automation of industrial production dramatically expands the variety of products. In addition, the fifth TU is characterized by the deurbanization of the population and the development of a new information and transport infrastructure associated with it. Free access of each person to global information networks, development of global systems mass media, air transport is radically changing human perceptions of time and space. This, in turn, affects the structure of needs and motivation of people's behavior.
During the life cycle of the fifth technical standard, the role of natural gas and RES increases.
Sixth technological mode (2010–present)
Since the beginning of the 2000s in the bowels of the fifth TU, elements of the sixth TU began to appear more and more noticeably. Its key areas include biotechnology, artificial intelligence systems, CALS -technologies, global information networks and integrated high-speed transport systems, computer education, formation of networked business communities. These are the industries that are currently developing in the leading countries at a particularly rapid pace (sometimes from 20 to 100% per year).
