Scientist-emigrant Alexander Bilimovich as a researcher of the history of national cooperation

Journal Title: Eminak - Year 2016, Vol 3, Issue 1

Abstract

The article attempts to reveal the pages of the biography and scientific activity in the area of economic problems until now almost unknown in Ukraine, the scientist-emigrant Ukrainian-born Alexander Dmitrievich Bilimovich. It focuses on his indisputable contribution to the study of the history of prerevolutionary and Soviet co-operation and prediction of its prospects in the post-Soviet economy. In his last works A.D. Bilimovich supported the idea of «social capitalism», believing that such paradigm can be achieved by evolution. The scientist was looking for a way out in a mixed economy that combines market freedom and the corrective influence from the state. In the post-Soviet mixed economy he saw a reasonable mix of private, state, cooperative and municipal ownership. Therefore, in general the study of A.D. Bilimovich can be considered as a program of consistent and less painful transition from command and planned economy to mixed economy. The core of this program is cooperation, the principles of which have much in common with small and medium-sized business. The scientific heritage of A.D. Bilimovich contains a number of reasonable, relevant and extremely important recommendations for the current socio-economic development of Ukraine. Hence, in our opinion, the works reissue of A.D. Bilimovich in Ukraine is necessary. To this day the entire personal archive of professor remains in the United States of America. Ukraine, through its diplomatic departments is entitled to insist on the return of this obviously unique collection at home.
