Размер файла26-46 Размер файла  642.05 KB Размер файла Full text

Abstract

Over the past decade ecosystems have become an important part of the economy, ensuring innovative business growth and progressive socio-economic development of Russia. However, to clearly understand the essence of the ecosystem in the economy, it is necessary to systematize the existing theoretical positions. The article identifies the main theoretical approaches to the development of the ecosystem concept in the economy. Based on their analysis and generalization, the evolution of the ecosystem concept from the field of ecology to economy is shown, approaches to understanding the ecosystem as a business environment and as a business model are revealed and the main features of the metaphorical use of the term “ecosystem” are determined. In addition, derived meso- and macroeconomic categories of the ecosystem are identified, emphasizing the systemic nature of socioeconomic development.

Keywords: ecosystem concept, ecological system (ecosystem), business ecosystem, digital ecosystem, regional ecosystem, national ecosystem, ecosystem of the economy.

Размер файла7-25 Размер файла  355.45 KB Размер файла Full text

Abstract

Budget openness is a new phenomenon in public administration and in the socio-economic life of society, which appeared due to the development of information technologies. Monitoring of openness shows significant inequality in the level of budget transparency in different countries. The article examines the role and place of budget openness in modern concepts of public administration, such as the concept of M. Weber (Weberian), New Public Management and Good Governance. The work reveals the features of the implementation of budget openness mechanisms in the considered concepts of public administration and their causes. Also, proposals are formulated to increase the openness of the budgets so that it can work to improve the efficiency of public finance management. Promising areas of research include the development of mechanisms to improve the economic efficiency of public finance management through open budgets.

Keywords: open (transparent) budget, public finances, citizen participation in the management of public finances, Weberian concept, new public management, good governance, new public governance, efficiency of public finance management.

ON THE ISSUE OF CONSTITUTIONAL POLITICAL ECONOMY IN THE FRAMEWORK OF "INSTITUTIONAL POLITICAL ECONOMY"

Размер файла73-85 Размер файла  351.02 KB  Open .pdf

Abstract

The article presents a brief summary of the development of political economy. The fundamental differences between the methodology of political economy and the methodology of economics are briefly described. It is shown that modern political economy is not reduced to either Marxism or the "new political economy" of J. Buchanan. The relevance of research within the framework of institutional political economy, which is capable of developing the achievements of classical political economy, traditional institutionalism and institutional evolutionary theory, is substantiated. It is proposed to develop constitutional political economy within the framework of this particular area of political and economic research.

Keywords: constitutional political economy, constitutional economics, political economy, institutional political economy, traditional institutionalism, methodology of economic science.

SOVIET STRUCTURALISM: E. PREOBRAZHENSKY, S. STRUMILIN, N. VOZNESENSKY, YU. YAREMENKO

Размер файла109-133  Размер файла  364.37 KB Размер файла Full text

Abstract

Structuralism is a relatively young area of economic research, but it already has its own history in Russia. The first debates over the rates and proportions of the Soviet economy began back in the 1920s. The discussions between “geneticists” and “teleologists” were quite open then. Geneticists defended the traditionalist approach, relying on the exhaustion of the restoration impulse and the need to return the country to “normal”, average world growth rates and the accumulation rate of 16-18%. Teleologists relied on the “law of socialist accumulation” and the “theory of two regulators”. They were confident in the possibilities of accelerated development; even the “starting version” of the 1st Five-Year Plan provided for achieving an accumulation rate of more than 20%. And in the end, despite the monstrous mistakes the Bolshevik leadership made during collectivization, the teleologists turned out to be right. The 2nd Five-Year Plan was more successful — the planned savings rate was reduced, the production of consumer goods was increased, and it was possible to switch from cards to planned trade turnover. The idea of accelerated development and the discovery of the law of socialist accumulation belonged to E. Preobrazhensky, but its implementation, including through planned calculations, was carried out by S. Strumilin, and starting from the 3rd Five-Year Plan — by N. Voznesensky.

The end of the post-war period and the death of I. Stalin marked the end of “adaptive modernization”. The 8th Five-Year Plan, which aimed for faster growth of Group B industries over Group A, failed to be fulfilled. By the end of the 1970s the Soviet economy fell into inevitable stagnation. Economists of that time gave alarmist forecasts about the decline in growth rates, and proposed measures to overcome the crisis, but all of those were palliative in nature. The structuralist theory of multi-level economy by Yu. Yaremenko appeared at the same time. This theory contained a number of provisions that could be called heretical, contradicting both Marxism and the neoclassical mainstream. Despite its fruitfulness, it was ignored by both planners and Soviet leaders.

Keywords: structuralism, NEP, geneticists, damping curve, teleologists, structural crisis, multilevel economy.

BEHAVIORAL “ANOMALIES” AND THE COST OF DECISION-MAKING

Размер файла 40-57 Размер файла  403.04 KB  Open .pdf

Abstract

The author explores the possibility of generalizing the main results of behavioral economics (importance of the status-quo and notions of justice for decision-making, endowment effect, transactional utility, mental accounting, dynamic inconsistency and the lack of self-control, social preferences) based on the assumption of costly choices and the ability to refuse choice and maintain the status-quo, using the formalization of the rational inattention concept. The author shows that costly choices may explain why behavioral biases remain within economic logic, even in the case of a utility-maximizing individual. Some remarks on economic policy are made as a result.

Keywords: bounded rationality, behavioral economics, nudging, rational inattention.
