Shaping Sustainable Economy is a comprehensive monograph. It analyzes the transition to sustainable development as a systemic phenomenon, which has many facets and dimensions: environmental, social, economic, humanitarian, ethical, technological. Uniquely, the study explores the ongoing processes based on the author’s concept of the evolution and ordering of the Earth’s single anti-entropic potential. A central theme of the book is the triune nature of the human being (bio, labor, socio) and the decisive role of personality development, creativity and free will in driving long-term sustainability. The book shows the key direction of sustainable development through the informatization of human nature and the economy. The author examines transformation processes in the economy based on the innovative approach proposed as the trialectics of system formation. According to it, the system arises from the interaction of three groups of factors: material, informational and synergetic. The book scientifically substantiates the model of phase transition from a traditional industrial economy to an additive economy as a systemic phenomenon through three industrial revolutions (Industries 3.0, 4.0, 5.0). Special attention is paid to modern transformation trends that ensure the transition: 3D-printing, renewable energy, circular economy, cyber-physical systems, cloud technology, artificial and collective intelligences, Internet of Things, sustainable settlement and industrialized agricultural production. Theoretical positions are supported by facts, figures, and examples to ground the theories involved, ensuring clarity.
