The book presents a collection of selected papers from the Euro-Asian Symposium on Economic Theory, held by the Institute of Economics of the Ural Branch of the Russian Academy of Sciences in Ekaterinburg, Russia, on June 29-30, 2022. The symposium aimed to foster research and develop practical solutions to pressing challenges in economic theory, particularly in the context of stability and uncertainty.

The central theme of the 2022 Conference was the Viability of Economic Theories. In the face of the complex and rapidly changing world, researchers are striving to bridge the gap between theory and empiricism through innovative models, mechanisms, and approaches. The recent social transformations have necessitated a reevaluation of many concepts, leading to the need for their updating. By identifying and addressing the problems and contradictions in the studies, the volume seeks to reconcile theoretical frameworks with practical applications.

The book encompasses a wide range of topics, including sustainable development issues, economic shocks in the history of economic thought, modern economic concepts of identity, theory of organizations under uncertainty, review of economic theories in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic, models of consumer behavior, business cycles crisis, theory of investment, issues of economic growth and market equilibrium, impact of social factors on the sustainability of the economy, and more. Additionally, the volume presents novel solutions for the synthesis of mainstream and political economy ideas, which are of significant interest to academics, researchers, and practitioners alike.

The contributions presented in this volume reflect the latest research and insights in economic theory, providing valuable insights for scholars, policymakers, and practitioners in the field.
