Abstract:
This paper focuses on the socialization of potential successors in family business and attempts to relate this process to values that founders intend to convey to the next generation. We found that founders' values condition potential successors' socialization and that there are two different phases common to all socialization processes. The first stage, characterized by family socialization and common to all founders' descendants, comprises value transmission and training. The second stage is characterized by business socialization and reserved only for the founder's potential successors. We also identified two models of socialization that pursue two different aims: (a) the Founder Homosocial Reproduction Model and (b) the New Leader Development Model. These socialization models are consistent not only with values that the founder intends to convey to potential successors but also with the founder's own business perception. We present and explain the distribution of these two models according to each group of founders. Finally, we reveal the content of what we call the founder's dependence paradox and the effect on the next-generation socialization process.

Abstract:
Studi ini menganalisis nilai-nilai pendiri yang berkontribusi pada suksesi antargenerasi dari bisnis keluarga besar yang dianggap konglomerat di Indonesia. Akses informan dalam usaha keluarga besar ini masih langka, terutama karena sifat usaha keluarga yang tertutup. Dengan demikian, meskipun beberapa peneliti telah membahas hubungan antara nilai dan umur panjang, studi yang menyinggung bisnis keluarga besar di ekonomi yang sedang berkembang ini masih minim. Selain itu, penting untuk mengetahui bagaimana nilai-nilai para pendiri mempengaruhi umur panjang bisnis keluarga besar mereka, mengingat dampak kelompok konglomerat tersebut terhadap perekonomian Indonesia. Para peneliti menggunakan Interpretative Phenomenological Analysis (IPA) dengan mewawancarai 15 informan yang terdiri dari penerus dan profesional non-keluarga kunci dari 5 kelompok konglomerat. Pengamatan dan catatan lapangan juga dicatat untuk melakukan triangulasi dengan data wawancara. Penelitian ini mendorong wawasan empiris baru ke dalam nilai-nilai para pendiri dalam mengubah manajemen bisnis keluarga dan umur panjang mereka. Temuan tersebut mengungkapkan bahwa nilai-nilai integritas dan kewirausahaan pendiri adalah yang teratas, diikuti oleh kesopanan, kepercayaan, tujuan yang lebih tinggi, dan kepercayaan kepada Tuhan. Nilai-nilai yang ditimbulkan ini menopang umur panjang bisnis keluarga besar hingga generasi berikutnya dan membuka jalan potensial untuk penelitian di masa depan. This study analyzed the founders’ values that contribute to the intergenerational succession of large family businesses that are considered conglomerates in Indonesia. The access to the informants in these large family businesses is scarce, especially due to the reserved nature of the family business. Thus, even though several researchers have addressed the relationship between values and longevity, the studies that allude to large family businesses in this emerging economy is still scant. Besides, it is vital to investigate how the values of the founders affect the longevity of their large family businesses, considering the impact that these conglomerate groups have on Indonesia’s economy. The researchers employed the Interpretative Phenomenological Analysis (IPA) by interviewing 15 informants composing of successors and key non-family professionals from 5 conglomerate groups. Observations and field notes were also taken note of to triangulate with the interview data. This research induced new empirical insights into the founders’ values in transforming their family business management and longevity. The findings revealed that the founder's values of integrity and entrepreneurship are among the top, followed by modesty, trustworthiness, a higher purpose, and trust in God. These elicited values underpin the longevity of large family businesses into the next generations and enkindle potential avenues for future research.

Abstract:
PurposeTo identify the characteristic features of humanistic leadership in the Tata group in India, and to explicate the key facilitating factors.Design/methodology/approachNarrative case-study inquiry via semi-structured interviews with top management leaders and middle managers, and secondary sources of information.FindingsThe top leaders of the Tata companies emphasised the following values and leadership experience: (1) Adherence to the founder's philosophy and the basic core values, (2) Leadership with Trust, (3) Community as the key purpose of the enterprise, (4) Senior leaders as mentors and role-models, (5) Abiding by the ethical code of conduct, (6) Employee-focus and (7) Tacit alignment with Indian cultural values. These resonated with the humanistic leadership tenets. Based on the literature the authors also identified that in Tata leadership, there is an amalgamation of personal values (humata, hukhta, hvarshta: good thought, word and deed) and national cultural ethos (dharma, karma and jnana: emphasis on duty-bound action and knowledge). These leadership values are conveyed and institutionalised in the organisation via strategic initiatives such as the Tata Trusts, Tata Business Excellence Model, Tata Code of Conduct. This synergy of personal values, national cultural ethos and organisational strategy makes Tata group realise the humanistic leadership objectives, while achieving business targets.Research limitations/implicationsThe thematic analysis of interview data provides a contextualised understanding of how humanistic leadership gets realised at both the individual behavioural level, as well as at the broader organisational strategic level. This provides inputs to building the theory of humanistic leadership.Practical implicationsBy unravelling the factors that facilitate the realisation of humanistic leadership in the Tata group, the authors provide an exemplar for other organisations and business leaders to draw insights from.Social implicationsHumanistic leadership, oriented towards upliftment of community and society, and not just profit maximisation, is critical to creating a more sustainable and peaceful world.Originality/valueThis is one of first studies that conceptualises the Tata leadership from the humanistic perspective. The theoretical insights are of basic and applied use.

Abstract:
Both the study of emergent religious communities historically and in recent times reveals a rich diversity of communal forms and patterns of change and development. Emergent religious or spiritual communities that survive the initial hazards of public opprobrium engendered by their oft times heretical beliefs and unconventional group arrangements must subsequently make adaptive changes as the pioneering generation ages, founding leaders die or fail to maintain their authoritative status, and second- and third-generation children increasingly require inculcation of their parents' values in order to sustain some degree of continuity and long-term commitment to community institutions. Because of their supernatural valence, religious beliefs can be powerful ingredients in the process of binding people's loyalty to the community and facilitating a privileged sense of mission to carry on a charismatic founder's work. While typically authoritarian in their ultimate devotion to religious guidance and direction, there is some evidence that contemporary American spiritual communities are beginning to adopt more egalitarian practices and democratic flexibility for managing their communities in a rapidly changing global context.

Abstract:
AbstractParameters based on probabilities of gene origin were used to evaluate the genetic variability of four Austrian cattle breeds. Effective numbers of founders, ancestors and remaining founder genomes showed that all four populations investigated are rather small genetically. Effective numbers of remaining founder genomes were 94 for Simmental, 41 for Braunvieh (Brown Swiss), 32 for Pinzgauer and 21 for Grauvieh (Grey cattle, a small mountain breed). As the value of 94 for Simmental was rather large in comparison with estimates from other populations in previous studies, the effect of population structure was investigated. A cosine measure of similarity based on differences in individual founder contributions to different subpopulations was defined and used for analysis. Subpopulations defined by regions were clearly more distinct for Simmental than for Braunvieh. The size of the cosine values depended on the method of calculating founder contributions and was overestimated when choosing the method not accounting for drift and bottlenecks (effective number of founders).

Abstract:
The effects of two values held by founder—CEOs (collectivism and novelty) on companies' post—start-up performance are investigated. By integrating congruence and organizational lifecycle literatures, the authors hypothesized that the effects of both values are moderated by company age and size, such that collectivism exerts stronger beneficial effects in older and larger firms, whereas novelty exerts stronger beneficial effects in younger and smaller firms. Results based on 92 small- to medium-sized enterprises offer support for most predictions, thus demonstrating the influence of founders' values on new venture performance and highlighting the importance of considering organizational lifecycle for the understanding of this influence.

Abstract:
In this paper, we investigate the central problem of finding recombination events. It is commonly assumed that a present population is a descendent of a small number of specific sequences called founders. The recombination process consists in given two equal length sequences, generates a third sequence of the same length by concatenating the prefix of one sequence with the suffix of the other sequence. Due to recombination, a present sequence (called a recombinant) is thus composed of blocks from the founders. A major question related to founder sequences is the so-called Minimum Mosaic problem: using the natural parsimony criterion for the number of recombinations, find the "best" founders. In this article, we prove that the Minimum Mosaic problem given haplotype recombinants with no missing values is NP-hard when the number of founders is given as part of the input and propose some exact exponential-time algorithms for the problem, which can be considered polynomial provided some extra information. Notice that Rastas and Ukkonen proved that the Minimum Mosaic problem is NP-hard using a somewhat unrealistic mutation cost function. The aim of this paper is to provide a better complexity insight of the problem.

Full text
Abstract:
The objective of this study was to use pedigree analysis to evaluate the population structure, genetic variability and inbreeding in Iranian buffaloes. The analysis was based on the pedigree information of 42 285 buffaloes born from 549 sires and 6376 dams within 1697 herds. Pedigree information used in this study was collected during 1976 to 2012 by the Animal Breeding Centre of Iran. The CFC program was applied to calculate pedigree statistics and genetic structure analysis of the Iranian buffaloes. Also, the INBUPGF90 program was used for calculating regular inbreeding coefficients for individuals in the pedigree. The analysis of pedigree indicated that inbreeding coefficient ranged from 0% to 31% with an average of 3.42% and the trend of inbreeding was significantly positive over the years (P < 0.0001). Average coancestry was increased in recent years and overall generation interval was 6.62 years in Iranian buffaloes. Founder genome equivalent, founder equivalent, effective number of founders and effective number of non-founders were increased from 1976 to 2002, but their values decreased from 2002 onwards. A designed mating system to avoid inbreeding may be applied to this population of buffalo to maintain genetic diversity.

Full text
Abstract:
Top management succession may be a real threat to the long-term profitability of companies, in particular when it involves the founder whose name also identifies their brand and their products. This is extremely important in the luxury sector where loyalty, trust and the image of brands in consumers’ minds may be affected by the succession process, especially when the founder has no direct heir to ensure continuity of the family firm. Through an analysis of three case studies, as well as a questionnaire distributed to active consumers of luxury products, this study aims to understand whether and how a brand can successfully survive after the death of its founder and whether the purchasing behaviour of customers changes after a founder succession takes place. Our findings reveal that the lack of a clear and structured succession plan may significantly threaten the survival of companies. In addition, our evidence indicates that the purchasing intention of luxury consumers is linked more to the bond and the values that they share with the founder than to the quality of the goods purchased. Accordingly, our results provide insights and suggestions concerning the optimal approach to follow when companies with heirless founders are planning a succession and highlights that the success and the survival of such entities is linked to consumers’ perceptions of the extent to which there are continuity and alignment between the values of the founder and those of their successors.

Sharpe, Rosemary Ann. "Franciscan values and social contexts : a sociological study of founders of Anglican Franciscan Third Orders, 1882-1939." Thesis, London School of Economics and Political Science (University of London), 1993. http://etheses.lse.ac.uk/1227/.

Full text
Abstract:
This thesis is an account of how certain resources and the values they expressed came to be available and visible in society, and of how these values were taken up, transformed and used in particular ways. It will demonstrate how four individuals, in different social contexts, acquired and transformed these values, as they attempted to initiate varying forms of the same type of organisation. The values with which the thesis is concerned are those inferred from the life of St. Francis of Assisi (1182-1226). Part One sketches how (a) Roman Catholics made the values they ascribed to St. Francis available as resources and (b) those outside the Roman Catholic Church, especially in the period 1882-1939, came to know of these resources and values, and modified them. Part Two consists of four life-history narratives constructed from oral history, manuscripts and printed materials. They recount how four people in this period came to be stimulated by these resources, and attempted to institutionalise the values they absorbed from them in different forms of an Anglican Franciscan Third Order. The first narrative traces part of the mercurial life of James Adderley, who encouraged individuals to express Franciscan values through attempting to bring about social justice. The second narrative explains how Emily Marshall came to connect Franciscan values with her desire to see women's ministry recognised by the Church of England. The third and fourth narratives are set mainly in India. John Winslow in the 'High Noon' of the British Empire linked Franciscan and Indian bhakti values to form an ashram, Christa Seva Sangha. Verrier Elwin merged Franciscan and Gandhian values while living among aboriginal tribes. The final chapter analyses the complex interplay between Franciscan values and social contexts which is demonstrated by these four examples, and draws some sociological conclusions from the research.

Abstract:
The number of enterprises has grown throughout the past decades, where previous research emphasizes that the difficulties of succeeding as a self-employer is a fact. Today’s society is evolving towards a competitive market of self-employment, where traits play a bigger role through the whole process. In this context, the distinct traits adopted by firm founders in birth, growth and maturity stages of an enterprise in Sweden, has not been thoroughly examined. Therefore, the authors aim to provide insight in what traits firm founders have adopted in the different stages through a retrospective perspective, and to what extent their traits have affected the success in each stage of the firm. This study collects qualitative data and adopts a comparative case study to identify what traits unite the firm founders. By conducting four semi-structured in-depth interviews, the authors identified a common trait in each stage of the enterprises amongst all participants, which were dedication (birth), energy (growth) and straight forward (maturity). Evidence showed that the common traits are specific managerial trait in birth stage, whereas leadership traits in growth stage and maturity stage. The study then elaborates on to what extent the adopted traits affect enterprise success in each stage, in which it is proven by the literature provided, that the specific traits do not lead to a particular success in the given stage.

Nowadays, researches related to crowdfunding are developing but literatures about the relationship between project founder and backers are still limited. This research analyzes whether the value congruence and social interaction between founder and backers can impact on perceived distance that later on impacting perceived credibility and intention to invest in the project. The findings shows that both value congruence and social interaction are positively significant in affecting perceived distance. Higher in value congruence and social interaction will result on closer in perceived distance. Besides, perceived distance positively and significantly affect someone’s perceived credibility. The closer the perceived distance the more people will perceive it as credible. Meanwhile, perceived credibility also positively and significantly influences the intention to invest. Related to the mediating effect of perceive credibility towards the relationship between perceived distance and intention to invest, the findings indicate that perceive credibility is partially mediated the relationship. Theoretical and practical implications are discussed.

Abstract:
This chapter examines LOHAS as a bridge between the two poles of the American marketplace—the “alternative” market and the “mainstream” or conventional market. This market-based binary shaped and informed many of the industries now considered part of the domain of LOHAS. These companies and industries once purposefully positioned themselves as alternative. “Alternative” defined their intended consumer base, their company missions, and even, in many cases, the founder's personal values. Today, however, LOHAS organizations regard this alterity as more of a handicap than an advantage. Moreover, the so-called mainstream is actively adding LOHAS products and services to product inventories and marketing materials, blurring the boundaries even further. The chapter historicizes this, following the emergence of The LOHAS Journal, the first truly public and mediated circulation of the word.

AbstractIn the current age of innovative business financing opportunities available from fintech apps, social media crowdfunding sites such as Kickstarter, Indiegogo, and RocketHub, et.al., and friends and family private equity investors, start-up firms can strategically source their venture capital funds from many globally disperse organizations and individuals. As the firm in this case learned, the benefit of alternative investing sources comes with a critical hidden risk for corporate governance. After a financial restructuring, a typical Silicon Valley software start-up found itself with close to 300 external individual shareholders, some of whom had not been documented as accredited investors. The regulatory agency could decide that the prior actions of the founders and the decisions of the board had been prejudicial to the interests of the minority investors. The management of this small private company faced an atypical investor relations dilemma, before its initial public offering (IPO).

Abstract:
AbstractScience in Transition, which started in 2013, is a small-scale Dutch initiative that presented a systems approach, comprised of analyses and suggested actions, based on experience in academia. It was built on writings by early science watchers and most recent theoretical developments in philosophy, history and sociology of science and STS on the practice and politics of science. This chapter will include my personal experiences as one of the four Dutch founders of Science in Transition. I will discuss the message and the various forms of reception over the past 6 years by the different actors in the field, including administrators in university, academic societies and Ministries of Higher Education, Economic Affairs and Public Health but also from leadership in the private sector. I will report on my personal experience of how these myths and ideologies play out in the daily practice of 40 years of biomedical research in policy and decision making in lab meetings, at departments, at grant review committees of funders and in the Board rooms and the rooms of Deans, Vice Chancellors and Rectors.It has in the previous chapters become clear that the ideology and ideals that we are brought up with are not valid, are not practiced despite that even in 2020 they are still somehow ‘believed’ by most scientists and even by many science watchers, journalists and used in political correct rhetoric and policy making by science’s leadership. In that way these ideologies and beliefs mostly implicitly but sometimes even explicitly determine debates regarding the internal policy of science and science policy in the public arena. These include all time classic themes like the uniqueness of science compared to any other societal activity; ethical superiority of science and scientists based on Mertonian norms; the vocational disinterested search for truth, autonomy; values and moral (political) neutrality, dominance of internal epistemic values and unpredictability regards impact. These ideas have influenced debates about the ideal and hegemony of natural science, the hierarchy of basic over applied science; theoretical over technological research and at a higher level in academic institutions and at the funders the widely held supremacy of STEM over SSH. This has directly determined the attitudes of scientists in the interaction with peers within the field, but also shaped the politics of science within science but also with policy makers and stakeholders from the public and private sector and with interactions with popular media.Science it was concluded was suboptimal because of growing problems with the quality and reproducibility of its published products due to failing quality control at several levels. Because of too little interactions with society during the phases of agenda setting and the actual process of knowledge production, its societal impact was limited which also relates to the lack of inclusiveness, multidisciplinarity and diversity in academia. Production of robust and significant results aiming at real world problems are mainly secondary to academic output relevant for an internally driven incentive and reward system steering for academic career advancement at the individual level. Similarly, at the higher organizational and national level this reward system is skewed to types of output and impact focused on positions on international ranking lists. This incentive and reward system, with flawed use of metrics, drives a hyper-competitive social system in academia which results in a widely felt lack of alignment and little shared value in the academic community. Empirical data, most of it from within science and academia, showing these problems in different academic disciplines, countries and continents are published on virtually a weekly basis since 2014. These critiques focus on the practices of scholarly publishing including Open Access and open data, the adverse effects of the incentive and reward system, in particular its flawed use of metrics. Images, ideologies and politics of science were exposed that insulate academia and science from society and its stakeholders, which distort the research agenda and subsequentially its societal and economic impact.

Abstract:
In this chapter the authors analyze the Moncler case using concepts link to the family business world. In the luxury industry family businesses are existing entities with a strong DNA created by a founder leader and guided by his vision across generations; the strong link between the founder's DNA, the company and the customers implies a high level of influence on how resources are managed and, consequently, it changes dynamics and results. In the rapid changing luxury industry's business environment it is necessary for the companies to maintain the DNA's heritage. To succeed it is necessary to innovate and to remain linked to the root of the past through innovation and evolution. Moncler perfectly shows how - from the successful vision of the founder to a deep crisis - is possible to reach a second life (with a new re-founder) appealing to the original values and DNA of the company.

Abstract:
Chapter 3 examines one individual form of corporate elite political engagement—campaign giving. The chapter undertakes an in-depth look at the itemized federal campaign contributions of Silicon Valley CEOs and founders during the 2015–2016 federal election cycle. Relying upon publicly available Federal Election Commission data on individual contributions, the chapter answers questions including: How prevalent is campaign giving among the corporate elites on our SV150+ CEO and founder lists? Do these corporate elites give more or less than other sets of corporate elites? In their giving, are SV150+ CEOs and founders as Democratic as previous studies suggest they are? Are they indeed a new financial constituency of the Democratic Party? Are Silicon Valley corporate elites simply furthering their firms’ interests when they give, or are they “free agents” following their own, personal preferences?

Abstract:
The book begins by introducing the Silicon Valley 150+, the 175 biggest public and private firms in Silicon Valley, and discusses the intent of the book: to examine the political engagement of those individuals who founded and are CEOs of the SV150+ firms. This chapter introduces the main themes of the book, positioning the book against literatures covering business lobbying, political donations by firms, philanthropy and public policy, and the formation of new advocacy organizations. The chapter also includes three important lists: (1) the SV150+ firm list—the list of Silicon Valley firms the book studies; (2) the SV150+ CEO list—the list of CEOs the book studies; and (3) the SV150+ founder list—the list of founders the book studies. The chapter concludes with an overview of the chapters to come.

Abstract:
The Masters of Enterprise Programme is a postgraduate programme whereby a student attempts to start a business during the course of their studies. Established in 2001, we have analysed the success of the 59 companies created from the course and found that as expected the start-up rate is higher than the general population. We also found that ratio of male to female founders (70-30) was similar to start-ups from the general population; however, the survival rate of ventures created from the programme was significantly higher. Also, a higher rate of the businesses were employing more than just the founder, implying they are what could be considered “Entrepreneurial” businesses rather than simply someone self- employed as might be normal in some careers. Despite many overseas students completing the course, only 3 of the businesses were founded outside the UK, suggesting the UK economy is benefitting from the ventures created. We also discuss other outcomes from the course such as these entrepreneurial students are often recruited by top corporates. We further discuss what we believe are the contributing pedagogic factors to its success. Keywords: Entrepreneurship and Enterprise Education, Employability, Start-ups, UK economy.

Abstract:
The paper focuses on the issue of cultural heritage and tourism in the area of the High Tatras that are located in the Spiš region – one of the most significant historical and cultural centres of Slovakia. The study points out the aspects of presenting to the visitors the traditional cultural values of this region that are in socio-cultural and economic contexts. Moreover, we monitor the adequate forms of interpretation of those values in the present conditions of tourism. We aim at the usage of socio-cultural capital of the city in the perspective of sustainable development in the European area. The contribution copes with the long term ethnological field research, which is, predominantly, the basis for the synthesis of the results, and that is completed with the bibliography sources. The main intention of the origin of villages in the Tatra region (spas and tourism), ethnic and social reference of their founders are the essential factors for our conclusions. Those factors have conditioned and influenced many cultural specificities of the inhabitants concerning their identity and cultural roots. This phenomenon is the important determinant of the values of cultural heritage exchange, mainly towards the external visitors of the High Tatras.

Abstract:
The article presents the theoretical views of the founders of theoretical economics A. Smith, A. Marshall and D. Ricardo on basic economic concepts. These eminent scientists also laid the foundation for political economics and had a tremendous impact on the main directions of the further development of economic science. The economic ideas of the classical school have not lost their significance to this day. The doctrines of surplus value, profit, taxes, land rent are still relevant today. The study and analysis of this historical heritage is necessary not only for obtaining fundamental knowledge in the field of economic science, but also for its further development.

Abstract:
Purpose – the paper is concerned with the issue of further education in non-profit organisations (NPOs) using training programs for their managers (TPM) and their impact on organisation development. The study aim was to find out whether and how the existence of TPM in the organisation depends on the founder, sector and duration of its economic activity. It also investigates which competencies the NPO managers perceive as the key ones. Research methodology – the study, based on the research questionnaire, included 69 NPOs. The dependence of TPM on defined characteristics has been assessed using Pearson’s chi-squared test or logistic regression. Conclusions (findings) – the results indicate that the usage of TPM is related to the size and founder of NPO. The other examined characteristics do not have a statistically significant effect. Furthermore, competencies considered by NPO managers as the most important were specified. Research limitations – follow from the size of the research sample. Practical implications – also, NPOs should focus on developing competencies mentioned in the study and evaluate them using impacts on the results of work activities. Originality/Value – the influence of training of managers on the development of NPOs is not sufficiently addressed in the literature

Abstract:
The purpose of this article is to assess the resources of start-ups in terms of their usefulness, rarity, resistance to imitation, and quality, and thus understand the internal assumptions of start-ups for successful business making. A modified VRIO analytical method was used to evaluate the attributes of the resources. The research sample contained 112 start-ups. Each start-up was studied by a member of the research team, who personally recorded the founder's evaluations. Correlation and regression analysis were used to find the relationship between resources and business performance. People have the highest level of aggregate evaluation among the researched resources, but their less value of the business experience weakens them. The resource with the highest level of quality is technology, but it is weakened by a small rarity. The problem of all resources is low quality, which is evaluated from an international perspective. Start-ups are weakened by a lack of quality (smart) finance and external know-how. However, finance and external know-how are also relevant factors in the business performance of a start-up. The result of the research is a multicriteria evaluation of start-up resources, which provides a realistic assessment of empirical assumptions for successful business making. It is a good counterpoint to the prevailing research, which lacks evidence from practical business making.

Abstract:
Human economic behavior arises from primal instincts for survival and, despite our higher aspirations, it seems we just can't escape this fact. History shows that ideologically inspired experiments in egalitarian economic systems have always stalled or utterly failed. Nevertheless, after the financial market crash of 2008, many tech entrepreneurs were bewitched with the captivating and viral idea that technology could eradicate the barriers between individuals who wanted to share the resources they had. This led to the sudden much-hyped explosion of so-called "sharing economy" marketplace start-ups around 2010. However, research that I led showed that idealistic entrepreneurs misunderstood or forgot the basics of human economic behavior and my team's findings predicted the demise of all but the companies that were able to compete on classical economic terms (better value for money). I joined one such company, Lyft, because I shared the founders' vision for more sustainable transportation. Nevertheless, Lyft and the other rideshare and disruptive transportation companies must all compete fiercely to survive. It's a challenging road ahead, with many obstacles to overcome, but the destination is one I remain deeply committed to; I am still an idealist at heart!

Abstract:
The thesis of this paper is mathematical formulation of the laws of Economics with application of the principle of Least Action of classical mechanics. This paper is proposed as the rigorous mathematical approach to Economics provided by the fundamental principle of the physical science – the Principle of Least Action. This approach introduces the principle of Action into main-stream economics and allows reconcile main principles Austrian School of Economics and the laws of market, such Say’s law and marginal value and interest rate theory, with the modern results of mathematical economics, such as Capital Asset Pricing Model (CAPM), game theory and behavioral economics. This principle is well known in classical mechanics as the law of conservation of action that governs any system as a whole and all its components. It led to the revolution in physics, as it allows to derive the laws of Newtonian and quantum mechanics and probability. Ludwig von Mises defined Economics is the science of Human Action. Action is introduced into Economics by the founder of Austrian School of Economic, Carl Menger. Production or acquisition of any goods, services and assets are results of purposeful acts in the form of expenditure of work and energy in the form of flow of money and material resources. Humans take them to achieve certain desired goals with given resources and time. Any economic good and service, financial, productive, or real estate asset is the result of such action.
