Abstract

The chapter reveals genesis and essence of Schumpeter’s theory of economic development; analyses its core methodological findings and gives theoretical grounds for proposition that only innovation development can be able to increase national added value; it highlights the conclusion that an economy based on reproduction and development of traditional production structure is unable to obtain substantial increase in national wealth. This chapter also analyses a less-known conceptual background of the Schumpeter’s innovation theory related to M.I. Tugan-Baranovsky’s ideas on the business cycle theory, as well as the Neo-Schumpeterian theory of technological paradigm, which has created a conceptual basis for a new methodological vision of the cyclical nature of economic development and the anti-crisis state policy.
