Summary / Abstract (Note) | It is difficult to agree emotionally with the analysts and publicists who point out positive aspects of the on-going global economic crisis, yet there is undoubtedly one positive factor in it. The crisis has not only caused people to mobilize material and intellectual resources, but has forced one to consider how the economy may change in general and what has to be adjusted to secure its further development. It is quite possible that anti-crisis measures, as hostages of inertia thinking, are far off the mark, and other solutions will be needed based on another paradigm for analyzing the economic matter. Regardless of speculations about the causes of the crisis, we all understand that the post-crisis economy will be different. What kind of economy will it be? The very real possibility of a dangerous divergence between reality and expectations requires active efforts to develop the future economic model not only on the part of academic scientists, but also by those who are deeply involved in the economy and influence the functioning of the economy to a certain extent, i.e. business people. It is due to this involvement that the impact of the crisis becomes much more painful, while the need for its positive comprehension is felt more acutely. |
