such a Renaissance quality, because the fact that at the time of the formation of
this research program was the sum of postulates widely broadcast in the
educational environment to young economists and specialist- subcontractors as a
norm, ceased to work and required a radical revision for the entire 300-year
history of science. This kind of archeology of knowledge is worth paying attention
to when analyzing scientific schools.
Also, Pavelieva cites a difference in the significant internal and external factors of
the development of scientific schools in the general system of science.
Neoconomics postulates the dependence of the science of the NTP era on the
structure of demand in specific historical conditions, that is, on external factors,
and on the way the division of labor within the system of scientific production. At
the same time, the scientific schools about which Paveliewiev is speaking are
primarily scientific schools
of the NTP era, and reasoning about them is conducted
in the method of description corresponding to this epoch. The general conclusion
is the following:
«
As can be seen from the above, the external factors (the logic of the
development of science, the cognitive relations between theory and experiment, etc.) are
added to the external factors when choosing the object of research (social needs and
interests). However, all this should be "missed" through the prism of the socio-
psychological perception of both the scientist-founder of the scientific school and the
scientific collective of the school as a whole. It can be argued that it is the combination of
external and internal factors in the aggregate that makes it possible to represent the
multifaceted nature of the activities of scientific schools. Otherwise, its analysis looks one-
sided. In general, the epistemological regularities in the formation of research objects in
scientific schools are associated with the logic of the development of scientific problems»
.
My own conclusion about the possibilities of neoconomics and Centre
"Neoconomics" to be a scientific school is the following. In general, if we are
talking about NSh with regard to the current task of changing the expert
consciousness of the representatives of the economists' community as a key one,
then productive is the consideration of K. Lange's dualistic position on the
issue of
NSh in the "nomadic" interpretation of Western scientific groups in the sense of
T. Pavelieva, in the framework of the general urban pathos of neoconomics aimed
at developing the idea of new settlements as places of the most probable creation
of alternative PTM and productive scientific concepts.

Three-place attitude of money, knowledge and PTM is an important moment
of neoconomics as a research program
The knowledge economy is not only lazy, this concept has already become a
common place for the most diverse futuristic arguments of this day. For example,
economist, wit, politician and rebel M.G. Delyagin often likes to ascertain that
today technologies are beginning to be valued more money – only now does not
find time to explain the mechanism of this transformation, remaining on
predominantly some near-the-world-style world-system positions. In the research
program of the neoconomics O.V. Grigoriev, who at one of his seminars in early
2014 came up with the idea of money as a "substitute" for knowledge, there
already exists a conceptual and thesis apparatus that has been worked out
enough to clarify this point.
Neoconomics says that interaction of reproductive circuits is carried out through
financial "intercellular substance". She also says that industry can exist in the
financial sector of the economy as part of it, measurable profits, as well as banks
can exist in the real sector as a non-profit loan and savings bank. In the
framework of neoconomics, I use the notion of PTM, whose roots I tried to clarify
in general terms when I spoke about the difference in the roots of European
science of university and academic types, while simultaneously outlining the
approach to understanding the development of PTM in the sense of the function
of consumption used by neoconomics Tornqvist – on the one hand, and the main
formats of the new European science, as the main institution of formation of
knowledge by the socium of the capitalist type – on the other hand. Another
point concerning the nature of money from the point of view of neoconomics was
clarified by Grigoriev in "Shaninsky" lectures 5 and 6, and I was interpreted in a
semiotic sense, taking these lectures into account, in this section further, where
the question is the semiotic nature of money.
It is also worth mentioning the concept of V.Easterley about the growth of
knowledge regarding the division of labor between poor and rich economies. If
neoconomics states that in a small country the division of labor system (SRT) can
not grow to a large level, the authors of the concept of knowledge state that
knowledge similar to SRT can. That is why supporters of this concept sound more
optimistic.
