Abstract:

The relationship between complex systems in ecology and economics was in focus of scientific research for centuries. Started by well-known Quesnay tables and Darvin theory now it is established in ``bionomics: economy as ecosystem{''} concept by Michael Rothschild. The most basic features of these systems are self-creating, self-organizing and self-preserving. They may be considered to be autopoietic ones in case when all their processes are organized as cycled communications in closed contours. To prove this suggestion the model of a municipal level local economic system was developed. This economic system was considered as a kind of social network and as an example of a system with active agents who communicate with each other as well. This dual point of view has given fruitful results. Due to topological (network) approach we could examine in details the links between the economic entities using the techniques of the Social Network Analysis (SNA) methodology and receive some network specific characteristics. SNA methodology equips the researches with the necessary information instruments to find all the closed paths in the network under investigation. We have revealed these paths and evaluated the product flows in their ranks. Some kind of the imbalance have been revealed and eliminated. Leontieff's equilibrium equations have been used to balance system flows. But SNA methodology has a kind of a lack: it uses a static picture of the world and all attention in this theory is paid to links, nodes are not under its focus. To avoid this restriction agent-based software model was engineered. In this software model all but one agent represents local municipal enterprises and one agent is considered to be the environment. Thus, we have open system which communicates with the external environment by means of export and import. Agent's characteristics were calculated in accordance to Leontieff's equilibrium. The developed model simulates agent communications in a form of product exchanges. Money was introduced in this agent model. To prove the fact that circular closed contours ``are working{''} the agents have money of two different types. Money of the first type is real, or external, money which can be used in any exchange act. Money of the second type is virtual (internal) money which can be used only for buying products manufactured in this system. Experiments have showed that even if we have small amounts of money of both types the This paper delivers the results of autopoiesis concept usage for practical problem solving - equilibrium revealing in the ranks of local economic system. Social Network Analysis methodology instruments were used for revealing circular exchange chains in this system and agent-based program model was engineered for the sake of this study. This program model has shown that local currency introduction accelerated communication process in economic system.
