It is concluded that it is neoclassical and non-classical (atypical) in the sciences of strategy, since, on the one hand, the theory of strategy of V. L. Kvint is a new classical theory, where the classics become part of the modern science of strategy, at the same time, on the other hand, due to its characteristics such as novelty, relevance, universality, practice-oriented, simplicity, uniqueness and interdisciplinarity, it is not burdened with the cumbersome constructions of classical strategy studies, which are rejected, especially from the point of view of the practice of formal strategies and other documents.
