Abstract:
mproving the efficiency of economic activity is complicated by the lack of rigorous mathematical and
computer models of economic phenomena. The reason behind the situation is determined by the mediation of the basic assumptions of traditional economic theory. The outline of reasoning about the intrinsic
properties of economic activity is presented. On this basis it is proposed to reduce the economic phenomena and effects to non-equilibrium thermodynamic processes in the terrestrial biocoenosis, which are the
essence of the processes of economic activity.
