More than 130 years have passed since Nikolai Kondratieff's birth, but his ideas and theories still attract the attention of researchers. They prove to be heuristic and help to find effective solutions to complex problems of not only the present and the past, but also to predict the future. We strongly believe that Kondratieff's ideas will be relevant for a very long time when using them creatively, not dogmatically.
This seventh issue of the Yearbook ‘Kondratieff Waves’ is dedicated to Kondratieff's legacy. It has the subtitle ‘Kondratieff's Theoretical Legacy: Perspectives from Modern Times’. The Yearbook consists of three sections. The first section (N. D. Kondratieff's Biography, Creativity, and Heritage) includes six contributions devoted to various aspects of Kondratieff's legacy and facts of his biography. The second section (Technology and Economy) consists of three contributions which provide the opportunity to see the application of the theory of long waves to various problems related to economics and technology. The final section (Reviews) includes Antony Harper's review of ‘Handbook of Revolutions in the 21st Century: The New Waves of Revolutions, and the Causes and Effects of Disruptive Political Change’ by Jack A. Goldstone, Leonid E. Grinin, and Andrey V. Korotayev.
This issue will be useful for economists, social scientists, as well as for a wide range of those interested in the problems of the past, present, and future of global economy and globalization.
