STUDY OF THE EVOLUTION OF THE THEORY OF RESILIENCE IN APPLICATION TO TERRITORIAL SYSTEMS

Abstract

In the modern context, the problem of ensuring the resilience of territorial economic systems and the economy of Ukraine as a whole is extremely relevant. The purpose of the article is to study the evolution of the theory of resilience in application to territorial systems, which was proposed by foreign economic theory in response to the challenges of the global financial and economic crisis of 2008 and the period of recovery after it. To form the main postulates of the study, general scientific methods of analysis and synthesis, generalization, classification, system analysis were used. The work analyzes the basic theories of resilience. The main contradictions that were faced by researchers during their development were investigated as well. The views on the question of the ultimate goal of resilience have been investigated. In particular, the evolution from the point of view that this goal is to maintain the state of equilibrium of the regional (urban) economic system, to the abandonment of this thesis, when the ultimate goal is blurred and either is considered as a continuous process of balancing the economic system, rather than returning to a previously existing or a new stable equilibrium condition, or there is a thesis of interrupted equilibrium, which is a sequence of stable forms or pathways of sustainable growth that is interrupted by periodic shocks. Engineering, ecological and evolutionary approaches to regional (urban) resilience have been studied by scientists on the way to finding an analogy from other fields of science, where the phenomenon of “sustainability — resilience “ has been developed quite carefully. The analysis gives the grounds for highlighting the adaptive approach as the most promising and adequate for the purpose of studying the economic content of the territorial aspect of the economy and the formation of relevant practical recommendations. According to the adaptive approach, economic resilience is understood as a multidimensional property, which includes not only the ability of the territorial system to recover from shock, but also the adaptive properties of its economic structure and the ability to restore positive economic dynamics.
