In the context of systematic instability increases the dependence of national economies on the degree of information

Uneven economic development of individual countries and their lagging behind the developed economies in terms of the economic growth rate, which include Russia, have a direct impact on the structural changes in the macrosocial systems, and require formulating new strategies as part of the structural and cyclic retrofitting paradigm of macrosocial systems. Studies into macrosocial systems should consider that they are not only complex, but also dynamic, and apt for cyclicality and transformation. This article focuses on the macrosocial system transformation mechanisms in the context of the global crisis. Based on this, the article also looks at the possibilities of achieving inner resilience to significant macro-scale institutional changes through achieving a balance of institutional mechanisms of self-regulation and public regulation. Particular attention is paid to the measurement of structural shifts, which is relevant in the conditions of cyclic fluctuations and convergence of macrosocial systems.
