THE MAIN TASKS OF SCIENCE AND EDUCATION IN ENSURING NATIONAL SECURITY

Abstract

The relevance of the research paper is determined by the theoretical and practical significance of problems related to ensuring the national security of the Russian Federation. Fundamentally different national security system requirements are needed for the development of the Russian society and the state which must have the features not only of rapid response to emerging threats but also the potential to prevent them. National security is the most important condition for the functioning and development of the individual, society and the state. The National security strategy of the Russian Federation approved by Presidential Decree No. 683 of 31.12.2015 points out that the main directions of ensuring the national security of the Russian Federation are strategic national priorities. At the same time there is a special paragraph dedicated to the status of National security depending on the degree of implementation of strategic national priorities including science, technology and education. The last note is of particular interest to us. Research in this area allows the author to determine the optimal ways for the contribution of science, technology and education to the National security of the Russian Federation with the appropriate development of the individual, society and state.
