The moral-ethical context of Russian socio-economic thought

For many centuries in the history of our Fatherland, the question of spiritual and moral values has been one of the most important in Russian socio-economic thought. Discussing this issue essentially led scholars, public figures, and thinkers to address the crucial problem of the significance of these values in the life of our compatriots in the context of entrepreneurial practice and the development of economic policy. It is noteworthy that in Russian economic thought, spiritual and moral values were postulated as the bond of the entire nation and a means of addressing issues of social justice; Russian scholars consider them as a vital component of the Russian cultural code. Within the framework of this study, the author examines such spiritual and moral categories as human rights and freedoms, patriotism, citizenship, dignity, humanism, mercy, and other significant traditional values. By integrating these values into economic policies and entrepreneurial practices, Russia can foster a more equitable and sustainable development path. Moving forward, further research is needed to explore the practical implications of moral-ethical principles for addressing modern socio-economic challenges and advancing the common good.
