RESTRUCTURING OF SOCIO-ECONOMIC SYSTEMS AS A COMPONENT OF THE FORMATION OF THE DIGITAL ECONOMY IN UKRAINE

Abstract

The article examines the main problems of restructuring socio-economic systems as a component of the formation of the digital economy. The concept of "system", its elements, the relationship between them, as well as the functional environment of the system are considered. The main characteristics of the parameters of the state of the system are analyzed. It is noted that systems are combined into larger system formations, called supersystems. The concept of system structure is defined, its main parameters are given. Categories such as hierarchy and function play an essential role in the study of the functioning of systems. The authors determined that in order to fulfill the tasks of its existence, any system must perform a set of interrelated functions. The more efficiently each of these functions is performed, the more efficiently the whole system works, and the higher the possibility for the system to accumulate free energy, and any system reproduction process should be viewed as a whole, greater than the sum of the individual sub-processes of which it consists. Time can be viewed as another horizontal axis of measurement in which the system is formed. This dimension can be figuratively called the "timeline" or "lifeline" of the system, and the time parameters (sequence, duration, pace, speed, level of synchrony of processes, switching time) reflect the quantitative and qualitative aspects of individual processes (subprocesses) of system reproduction. The transition of society to a new formation is associated with changes in the state of socio-economic systems, an integral part of which are processes of restructuring (changes in the parameters that form their structure). The authors proposed a conditional scheme of system formation as a spatial object and process and characterized certain types of restructuring of socio-economic systems in modern digital transformations. As an illustration of such processes the structural changes in the energy sector of Ukraine for the period 2010-2020 are analyzed. This proves that the structure of economic systems is the most important subject of management of socio-economic development, and the analysis of restructuring processes is an effective tool to justify management decisions and regulation of economic processes to ensure sustainable socio-economic development.
