DOI: 10.33917/es-5.203.2025.110-115

The present article examines a potential of the artel model of labour organization in modern Russia as a tool for enhancing entrepreneurial activity.

A comparative analysis of the ar tel model and modern forms of entrepreneurship is provided, identifying their advantages and disadvantages. The author proposes an innovative concept, “Ar tel 2.0”, adapted to economic, technological and social realities of the 21st century. Practical aspects of its implementation are examined, including changes in legislation, public policy and education system. Par ticular attention is paid to analysis of potential barriers and ways to overcome them. The author substantiates a thesis that the ar tel form of organization is more organic for a significant part of Russian society, taking into account its cultural characteristics and mentalit y. Potential social effects of introducing the cooperative model, such as increased employment and improved qualit y of life in small towns and rural areas, are explored.

Mental Sovereignty

DOI: 10.33917/es-1.199.2025.96-101

Over the past three centuries, economic liberalism has emerged as a global cultural norm that permeates international institutions and business practices. Global turbulence has coincided with degradation of the idea of liberalism; corporate leaders feel the need for change, but don’t associate the transformation goals with exhaustion of the liberal model.

Knowledge Management in the Context of Spiral Dynamics

DOI: 10.33917/es-6.198.2024.104-111

Nowadays, the «knowledge management» concept is often used, since today an employee is, first of all, an intellectual worker. However, an allowance is rarely made for the organizational environment in which managers and executives manage

knowledge and due to which this management can be modified. The purpose of the present work is to explain the «knowledge management» term from the point of view of the spiral dynamics concept. The results of the analysis have revealed that interpretation of the «knowledge management» concept becomes more complicated as the level of spiral dynamics increases, and it also begins to acquire features of its previous levels. These assumptions are intended to help managers and executives adapt their skills in intellectual worker management based on the level of spiral dynamics at which their organization is.
