New Industrialization: Phases, Dominants and Patterns

The article attempts to identify the key parameters of new industrialization, scientifically substantiate the place of such components as digitalization, cooperation, and the role of the public sector in economic transformation. An attempt is made to formulate the main theses of the concept of phase, which makes it possible to establish not only the divisibility of the process of new industrialization, but also to identify the main economic characteristics in the form of dominants, determinants and patterns for each phase of neoindustrial transformations. It is noted that, in most of the existing studies, new industrialization itself acts as one of the phases of economic development, along with such phases as industrialization, deindustrialization and reindustrialization. Each of these phases has a corresponding time interval and corresponding key parameters that allow identifying the main processes and results of passing the phase. Moreover, each of these phases also obeys the laws of phase behavior and, accordingly, can be divided into certain phases. The article considers new industrialization as a fourphase process. In view of the fact that new industrialization is a process that includes both the goals of modernization and the goals of innovative development, and thus assumes that there is a lag behind the basic technological development of the potential of the industry, the first phase of the process is the initiation of new industrialization, which implies a control effect on the process. Increasing the productivity of capital and labor in the system of new industrialization presupposes the active use of new technologies and knowledge, the increasing of efficiency through the widespread involvement of technological innovations in the economic circulation, as well as structural changes and the use of new combinations of resources. Digitalization at the initial stage of new industrialization can be viewed as a digital transformation, which leads to the formation of a new technological basis for production. At the stage of the full deployment of new industrialization, digitalization is a determinant that ensures the effective development of neoindustrial transformations. At the initial stage of new industrialization, the form of ownership of industrial resources is considered as a key dominant. The author concludes that key parameters such as digitalization, cooperation and the form of ownership at various phases of new industrialization can act as both determining and influencing factors, and under certain conditions become process patterns.
