Politics is a sphere of activity uniting relations between all social groups, defining the forms, goals, methods of governing the state, its main tasks.
The economy refers to the entire economic activity of the state, production processes, methods of distribution, exchange, or any other consumption of goods.
Взаимосвязь политики и экономики неразрывна, она is a very important problem for the life of any society. Such a problem has been present since the inception of social relations, but has been modified at the historical stages of its development.
It becomes especially important at crucial moments when some social relations change to others, dragging along political and social institutions, attitudes, worldviews.
Politics and economics are directly related, buteconomy plays a leading role in their relationship. The development of any processes taking place in it determines the policy, constitutes its material basis, and, consequently, determines political actions, decisions, which should be determined by the interests of society, individuals.
There is an opinion that the present, correctpolitics is considered only such an aggregate of groups or relations that is capable of consciously and rationally using economic laws for the benefit of society.
Politics and economics are capable of reverse interaction. He was identified by F. Engels. He noted that the policy in three ways can affect economic processes:
- Develop in parallel, in the same direction. In this case, the influence of politics on the economy accelerates the development of society.
- Develop along an opposing vector, leading to the collapse of the state.
- Hinder the development of the economy, which can lead either to failure, or to the choice of a different political and economic path.
If politics and economics oppose as in the last two cases, then the economy is hardest hit, and human, material, and other resources are wasted.
All three pure solutions are rarely found inreal life. Politics and economics are thinner-bound than in theory. An example of this can be the history of the Russian Federation, in which, more than once, along with progressive government decisions promoting the development of society, destructive steps were taken.
Politics and economics, which do not take into account their interconnection, very quickly suffer a complete collapse.
Politics is a means of solving economic problems.
The economy is the material basis of politics.
Successful problems in societythey are solved only with their competent, timely analysis taking into account the point of view of society, the course of history, and social development. If only a narrow circle of people who are interested in their own benefit solves problems, then the state can quickly end its existence, and the economy is out of control. The consequences of such phenomena are the emergence of conflicts, instability (social, political).
A policy that ignores economic laws will come to the same result.
Politics and economics are interlinked multilaterally.Violation of this entails negative consequences. Being "eternal", the question of the relationship of these concepts at each historical stage of social and state development sounds in a new way, especially acutely - in transitional periods. Russia is experiencing precisely such a difficult time today.
Today, the country's economy is affectedall previous political mistakes: long-term domination of the command-administrative system, illiteracy that took place in the restructuring, thoughtless borrowing from the West, etc.
Today, it’s not the political expediency that can bring Russia out of the crisis, but the economic efficiency of the decisions made.
