Evolutionary concept become more and more popular among economists, but unlike the post-synthetic theory of evolution, which list of the main provisions is relatively stable; a final corps of evolutionary economic theory assumptions has not been formed yet.
The paper presents economic interpretation of post-synthetic theory of evolution, which inc...
Cambridge debate raised a problem of aggregation, which allows measuring adequately the cumulative output as a function of total capital and total labor. Unlike most studies on economic growth based on aggregated macro functions and to harmonize macroeconomic characteristics of the system with the results of economic agents’ interactions at the mic...
A set of economic time series forecasting models (based on objective and subjective internet content analysis) is proposed in the article. The Bitcoin (BTC) system, the first and most popular cryptocurrency today, was chosen for analysis. Exponential increase of the cryptocurrency market stipulates relevance of BTC rate forecasting in recent years....
With the development of information technologies, Internet creates new virtual environment. Self-organization of Internet users and venture businesses, built on this effect (e.g. social networks) are the brightest phenomenon of the Information Economy. The most important monetization factor of social network is the total number of its participants....

Nonlinear dynamic model has been suggested for assessing and predicting the number of social network users. It was shown that Maurer and Huberman’s model describes the dynamics of users quite well in the short term. But the appearance of new services and changes in network strategy shift the system parameters, which significantly affects to users’...
A scientific paradigm of irreversible changes in the natural sciences has opened new prospects in economic researches and generated a large variety of new schools and areas (one of which is the modern school of evolutionism).
