Abstract:
The development of the approaches based on the theory of systems and the
institutionalism, explaining the mechanisms for ensuring the sustainability of the economic
systems at various levels, is analyzed in this article. It is shown that the key contribution to the
development of the system sustainability problems, beginning with work on tectology and ending
with a synergetic direction was made by the representatives of the system approach. At the same
time, the adequate explanation of the control mechanisms for the economic systems
sustainability is objectively hampered by the difficulties in interpreting the categorical apparatus
of systems and synergetic theory. Therefore, a parallel use of the other methodological
approaches, in particular, the institutional theory method, seems to be a promising direction for
describing the processes taking place in the economic systems in the course of their interaction
with the negative factors of the external environment.
