The law of entropy and economic growth
Języki publikacji
Abstrakty
The theories of economic growth - though often very correct with respect to formal logic - were marked by total disparity with the realities of social and economic development. Looking the new ways to overcome the resulting impasse the Author discusses entropy approach, opening new perspectives for studying economic processes in full lincage: matter-energy and information. The entropy aspects fully reveal the rules of struggle to Iive and to survive, so different from the 19th century illusions about economic harmony. The economic choice cannot be aimed, as yet, at immidiate profit but must include forsighted progressive perspectives. Against this background the growth of the coefficient of useful spending: of raw products, materials, fuels becomes of primary importance. Also useless overproduction is a crime against contemporary humanity but even more so against the future generations. Sensibly comprehended optimalisation of growth is only one way to avoid the tragical consequences of the thoughtless waste of free energy which is at our disposal. (original abstract)
