TYPOLOGIZATION OF CRISES IN SOCIO-ECONOMIC SYSTEMS

Abstract

The causes and problems of crisis in socio-economic systems are considered as the main reason that influences the situation of railways.

The indicator of the level of crisis situation in a system is proposed. The crises are classified by institutional sign, which helps to better understand their phenomenon. The study pays special attention to Kondratiev waves (also called supercycles, great surges, long waves, K-waves, the long economic cycle) and the cause-and-effect relations within them. The Kondratiev supercycles are taken as a reference point for the brief relevant study of developments of Russian railways in 19–20th centuries, including the impact of military risks of the reviewed period. The study substantiates the consistency of assessment of a crisis as of the event that is characteristic of a system, organization or economic sector at any stage of their developments. The conclusion accentuates the necessity to promptly assess the risks and to develop crisis management measures for railways, which run primary risks following general economic crises.
