Abstract

Abstract Purpose The purpose of this work is to determine the key barriers on the path of information economy’s formation in modern Russia and to determine the possibilities and perspectives of overcoming them. Methodology In order to determine weak spots in the Russian practice of information economy’s formation, the values of the indicators that reflect the corresponding progress in technosphere, sociosphere, economic sphere, and target result in Russia are compared to average values for the leading countries of the world that achieved the largest success in the formation of information economy. For that, the method of comparative and problem analysis is used. Results In the course of the research, the institutional barrier, which is related to the limitation of acceptance of priorities of information economy in the national strategy; structural barrier, which is based on insufficient development of the ICT spheres; and investment barrier, caused by deficit of investments in the ICT spheres, were found. Recommendations The determined barriers do not correlate with the national peculiarities of the socio-economic system of modern Russia. In particular, despite the incompleteness of market reformation, the level of informatization of the Russian economic system is very high. Despite the traditional public mode, sociosphere is the sector of the largest success in Russia in information economy’s formation, and the directive character of modernization of the socio-economic system stimulates quick formation of information economy due to timely establishment of the corresponding strategic course and implementation of state initiatives in the direction of its practical implementation.
