Abstract
Based on the analysis of "Human labour and its relation to the
distribution of energy" by the Ukrainian natural scientist and economist
Serhii Podolinsky, the authors support the opinion of modern researchers
that Podolinsky’s ideas, published in this work in 1880, have foreseen some
moments from Vladimir Vernadsky’s noosphere concept. Podolinsky also
underlined that there are countries which formerly had been rich but later
almost fell into poverty. He believed, and this has proved correct from a
modern point of view, that such a situation is connected with mistakes in
economic management. Despite some critical comments against the concept
of Podolinsky, its consideration is of interest today.
