Aim. To develop recommendations on the formation of a national model of sustainable development of the Russian economy based on the identification of its key vectors, components in the conditions of external and internal shocks and changes caused by the transformation of strategic guidelines for sustainable development.

Objectives. To analyze the peculiarities of the implementation of the global concept of sustainable development of the United Nations (UN) under the influence of deglobalization processes; to substantiate the need to transform the established foundations of sustainable development of economic systems in order to ensure the national economic interests of Russia; to propose the author’s approach to the formation of the structure and content of the national model of sustainable development of economic systems; to build a scheme of interaction between different levels of the economic system, ensuring the development of the national model of sustainable development of economic systems.

Methods. In the course of the research we applied general scientific methods and techniques: analysis and synthesis, generalization of practical experience, expert assessments, comparison, abstraction and concretization, monitoring, modeling.

Results. Based on the analysis of modern processes of deglobalization, the necessity of changing the structure and content of the concept of sustainable development of the Russian economy in the conditions of external shocks caused by the transformation of the global agenda of sustainable development was substantiated. The author’s approach to the formation of the structure and content of the national model of sustainable development of economic systems is proposed, which supplements the current triad of sustainable development (economy, ecology and social sphere) with innovation and institutional components and is scalable to the meso(regions) and micro-level (enterprises). The structure of the model sets socio-economic security, innovation security and the quality of the institutional environment in the conditions of external and internal shocks as controllable parameters, focusing on the creation of conditions for convergent convergence of meso-level systems. The scheme of organization of interaction between macro-, mesoand microlevels of the economic system is constructed, in which at the macrolevel the foundations of sustainable development of the country’s economy on the basis of national interests are set, management and control of mechanisms of sustainable development of economic systems of other levels are organized, and at the mesolevel the multiplier effect is provided for in the implementation of economic mechanisms of interaction of all elements of the regional ecosystem; the key task of the microlevel is the implementation of effective management of the regional ecosystem.

Conclusions. Sustainable development of the Russian economy in the current conditions of global challenges is a complex task, the solution of which requires a systemic and holistic approach based on the prioritization of national economic interests. The proposed model, which determines the general guidelines at the macro level, suggests the organization of interaction of all three levels of the economy (macro-, mesoand micro-) with the provision of multiplier effect at the meso level, which requires the elaboration of adaptation mechanisms to the conditions of regional ecosystems and the specifics of business entities, suggests the continuation of the study.
