Increasing the competitiveness of the national economy in the conditions of globalization

The aim of the article is to analyze the current state of the country’s competitiveness based on certain data as an indicator of the well-being of citizens, and acts as a guarantor of economic security and contributes to the growth of the national economy. Being a part of the global economy is relevant and important for a state and it requires new research on this issue. The authors in the article consider the relationship between the processes of the country’s competitiveness and economic growth, which determine the need for a comprehensive analysis of possible options for implementing the competitiveness strategy. The competitiveness of the economy is impossible without its openness and integration into the global economic system. Strengthening the integration processes will ensure unhindered access of Kazakhstani goods and services to the markets of other countries and expand their sales markets. Thereby it will help to increase competition. The problem of competitiveness is directly related to the theory of international trade, since the interaction of a country with other states in world markets is considered, and with the theory of the spatial organization of productive forces, in view of the fact that industry is the main object of empirical research of competition processes.The necessary increase in the role of geography in the study of current processes in the world economy under the influence of the globalization process is also explained by the differentiation of the rates ofdevelopment not only between groups of independent states, but also within most individual countries. The article uses the following methods: analysis and synthesis, systematic approach.
