Abstract: The paper proposes a model for verifying ways to identify scientific-technological priorities in Russia and suggests instruments for their implementation and adjustment. Our model for the identification of priorities is based on Russia’s socio-economic development goals, and takes into account the impact of different scientific and technological development scenarios on the implementation of models of socio-economic arrangement. Based on this logic, a group of technological priorities unchanged in face of the wider spectrum of national economic and social goals is suggested. Global economic, social, and scientific-technological trends and their Russian projections are taken as exogenous factors for selecting technological priorities. The suggested approach is based on the assumption that a new system of priorities should ensure support for implementing strategic development goals and tasks in the mediumand long term, and aims to help define these goals and tasks more accurately. As a result, the paper identifies two groups of priorities. The first group outlines the already institutionalized areas of technological development while the second group outlines fields for institutionalization in the near future. The proposed logic is illustrated through an analysis of five global trends and their applications in Russia, and we highlight which technologies will be driven by these global trends.
