Abstract

The article analyzes the process of ideological, theoretical, and methodological modernizationof Ukraine’s economy in the transformation period. Summarizing the experience of the Economic Faculty team of Taras Shevchenko National University of Kyiv, the author distinguishes the most significant stages of this modernization such as the implementation of the modern conceptual approach to the coverage of the historical evolution of economic science; scientific rethinking of the history of the Ukrainian economic thought, its release from dogmatism and ideological bias; establishment of powerful scientific schools acknowledged in Ukraine and abroad; shift to a deep philosophical understanding of the economic reality study of the urgent issues in the theory and practice of the management that arise under the global challenges of our time; integration of the Ukrainian economics into the global economic science.
The fruitful development of the Ukrainian economic thought in the transformation period enables the structural, substantial, organizational, and institutional restructuring of the national economic education. As a consequence, the new generation of textbooks of economic theory, micro- and macroeconomics, history of economic thought, theory of insurance, securities, and stock market, as well as workbooks of economic theory, macro- and microeconomics were published. Moreover, new disciplines were suggested and implemented into the University program, part of which was taught in English.
At the current stage of the socio-economic transformation, economic theory is facing new challenges and problems of theoretical and methodological improvement. The prospects of its further development largely depend on its practical value, ability to use the intellectual heritage of the previous generations in a creative manner, capacity to overcome inertia and stagnation of the scientific thinking and develop innovative analytical methods and research approaches.
