Abstract

Aim. The presented study aims to develop a methodological basis for economy robotization.Tasks. The authors identify theoretical and methodological prerequisites for studying economy robotization; investigate methodological approaches to economy robotization; demonstrate the application of relevant methodological approaches to studying economy robotization; develop the principles of economy robotization.Methods. This study uses a subjective approach designed by N. V. Gerasimov and currently developed by the adherents of a school of economic modernization sciences registered at the Belarusian National Technical University under the guidance of S. Yu. Solodovnikov.Results. The methodological basis for studying economy robotization consists in applying systems, institutional, historical, logical, and subjective approaches. The most important methodological principle of the latter — the commitment of social systems and social subjects to ensuring their socio-economic viability — determines the fundamental role of the interests of various subjects in the development of the economic system. Thanks to the development of a methodological basis for studying economy robotization, the principles of economy robotization are formulated.Conclusions. The principles of economy robotization are developed: taking into account the interests of various social groups and classes during a new stage of the modernization of the economy; ensuring the priority of social subjects that acts as carriers of productive interests and positive economic ideology in assigning the results of economy robotization; expanding the role of the state as an economic rather than administrative or political entity representing public interests and mitigating the effects of market imperfections; supporting economy robotization by developing mechanisms to curb the growth of structural unemployment and to ensure social stability as a factor of national security; developing a conceptually completed scientific ideology of economy robotization.
