Abstract: The post-industrial economy may have become possible as a result of the redistribution of labor resources in the sectoral limitation of GDP. As a result of the growth in labor productivity, which became possible due to the mechanization, accessibility and subsequent robotization of production processes, the world managed not only to make services as a priority in its economy, but to move to an innovative stage of development. Developed countries that took the risk to release part of their own labor resources from domestic production by replacing them with the work of robots, they now receive a huge amount of significant benefits from the development of robotics. Driven by the need to maximize them, they continue the processes of automating their national economy in an ideal situation — at the expense of robots of their own production, in extreme cases — at the expense of robots supplied from developed countries. Over the past century since the creation of the global robotics market, only countries with growing economies, primarily China, have managed to enter this market. This result was achieved thanks to a real assessment of the threats associated with an attempt to introduce robotics into the economy of a developing country, as well as serious advance work by the state aimed at leveling them. China's experience in entering the "world of robotics" can be borrowed by other developing countries, including Russia. It is important to understand that the success of the relevant reforms can only be achieved if two parallel processes are implemented: the robotization of production facilities already operating in the country and the organization of domestic production of robotics.
