Approaches to research and classification of public goods quality
Abstract
Based on the analysis of special literature on the problem under study, we clarified the content of public goods. The features of the analysis of public goods, supply and demand in this specific segment of the market within the framework of such basic schools and directions of economic thought as classical political economy, economics of Marxism, marginalism, neoclassical economic theory, paradigms of institutional and neoinstitutional economic theory, post-neoclassical political economy are considered. The classification of public goods has been supplemented according to such characteristics as the segmentation of public goods, sources of financing and the temporary nature of consumption of public goods, their innovativeness, social efficiency and resistance to the situation of a macroeconomic crisis. It has been determined that, all other things being equal, the most preferable are non-segmented or segmented according to clearly established criteria public goods, innovative both in form and content, but at the same time the most understandable and accessible for specific end recipients, maximized in a situation of prolonged macroeconomic crisis, which are socially effective in both the short and long term. It was revealed that pure public goods in relation to the operation of public transport in the process of mass motorization are transformed into mixed goods, which, in turn, retain the property of non-exclusion, but differ in their competitiveness in consumption.
