Abstrakt

Uzasadnienie wpływu ludzkiej działalności gospodarczej na środowisko i jej nieodwracalną transformację. W pracy wykorzystano interdyscyplinarne podejście do rozwoju systemu gospodarczego. Wynika to z faktu, że przedmiot badań wykracza poza funkcjonalne nauki ekonomiczne i ekonomię jako całość. Celem badania jest zbadanie interakcji człowieka jako czynnika gospodarczego z otoczeniem, które określiło badanie prac o tematyce przyrodniczej, w szczególności zmiany epok geologicznych, zrównoważonego rozwoju i procesów gospodarczych z punktu widzenia wpływu na środowisko. To pozwoliło zsyntetyzować nową ekonomiczną wiedzę o znaczeniu działalności gospodarczej w tworzeniu nowej ery geologicznej, antropocenu. Zgodnie z wynikami badań wpływ działalności gospodarczej człowieka na środowisko jest uzasadniony przez pryzmat rozwoju społeczeństwa geologicznego, technokratycznego i gospodarczego. Uzyskane wyniki naukowe mogą być wykorzystane w reformie krajowego systemu gospodarczego, jego adaptacji do wiodących na świecie koncepcji zrównoważonego rozwoju.
