TOPICALITY OF KANTOROVICH'S ECONOMIC MODEL

摘要

Proceeding from his discovery of linear programming, Leonid Kantorovich developed its applications to optimization at the macroeconomic level. The universal value of his model for all socio-political systems was recognized by leading representatives of western economic science. Though Kantorovich created his macromodel specifically for the centrally planned system, it was not accepted by the Soviet leadership. The paper considers the conditions under which that macromodel could be successfully used in the mixed economic system of Russia. Bibliography: 10 titles. Nowadays, one rarely sees references to L. V. Kantorovich's economic model. Apparently, the reason is that either those who are in power and determine the economic policy in our country do not need mathematical economics at all, or this model and the underlying theory disagrees with the official neoliberal ideology professed by these people.
