The sharing economy as an alternative model of consumption and market sector development

Abstract:

Economics is one of many economic sciences, i.e. sciences dealing with human economic activity. It is the most general science among them. Its considerations are characterised by a high degree of generalisation of specific economic reality. By formulating general laws relating to specific areas of economic activity, economics treats these areas as interrelatedand interdependent elements of the economic process.

In addition to economics (political economy), economic sciences usually include economic history, which studies the development of economic processes and phenomena in the past; economic statistics, which captures the process) and economic phenomena in numerical terms; and the so-called specific economics (or economies), which examine particular areas or aspects of the economic process, such as industrial economics, agricultural economics, construction economics construction, commodity trading economics, transport economics, tourism economics, labour economics, education economics, planning science, finance science, etc. These sciences serve economics by providing it with the necessary knowledge about the facts and course of specific economic processes.
