Formation of the category “self-employment” in Russia and scientists’ approaches to its interpretation
https://doi.org/10.34020/2073-6495-2024-1-157-170
Abstract
The article examines theoretical approaches to defining the concept of “self-employment” as a special type of employment with its own forms of manifestation, as entrepreneurship, as a form of economic activity of an individual, as a special structure in a multi-structure economy, as a socio-economic phenomenon, as a phenomenon that can lead to the integration of the interests of society and people and others. It has been suggested that only a comprehensive consideration of the characteristics of self-employment, its genetic basis, qualities, properties and forms of manifestation will allow us to provide a substantiated author’s understanding of self-employment.
