Социологический эксперимент по моделированию общественного развития

Аннотация

Introduction. The aim of the work is to build an experimental model that combines economic and demographic processes.

Methods. The methodological basis of the concept is the ideas of physiocratic economists, as well as elements of game theory associated with the reduction of a complex process to a simplified abstract model, as well as the methodological technique of moving from the abstract to the concrete. In the proposed model, the needs of social individuals are considered as vital needs that are satisfied in certain cultural forms. This approach required the introduction of new concepts and a different interpretation of the established conceptual apparatus.

Results and discussion.

Abstract variants of an experimental model of an agrarian-pastoral society and a society in the phase of transition to the industrial stage of development are constructed. The involvement of a specific statistical material makes it possible to verify the experimental model, which leads to a number of reasonable conclusions and forecasting of economic and demographic processes in the phase of transition to the information stage of social development.
