The increasing globalization of the world makes it necessary to develop an adequate policy of protectionism, thus increasing competitiveness of Russian goods in terms of national and international markets.The manifestation of the political activity of the state in some areas will allow domestic manufacturers to quickly and more effectively adapt to the global economic development in the post-crisis period.
