The Financial Potential: Nature and Properties in Terms of Synergistic Approach
Abstract
Renewal of understanding of nature and structure of financial potential is topical, considering the introduction of indeterministic paradigm of scientific thinking in economic researches. The article is aimed at improving the theoretical bases of understanding financial potential in the changing conditions of the economy environment. The methodological bases of the research are represented by methods of abstraction, analysis, and classification. The nature of financial potential is proposed to be understood as a trinity of «beginning ? ability to action ? unrealized ability to action», where the beginning is a set of current resources (financial resources), and their transformation does mean involvement in the reproductive system of society. Financial potential is defined as a synergistic system with the properties of self-organization, reflection, heterarcy, emergence, openness, multi-levels, relativism, a combination of dissipativity and entropicity in development. The structural organization of financial potential is the unity of component, functional, territorial, and organizational structures. The potential development is cyclical, with periodic changes in patterns.
