INTERACTION OF ECONOMIC ENTITIES: OBJECTIVITY AND PRINCIPLES OF ORGANIZATION
Interaction is considered as a way of mutual influence of subjects on each other in the conditions of a formed system of stable causal relationships and predictability and rationality of behavior of some subjects in response to the actions of other subjects as a form of cooperation that ensures the realization of interests of economically, organizationally and technologically interconnected subjects. The authors substantiate the provisions that determine the objective nature of interaction of economic subjects. It is concluded that the establishment of interactions occurs under the influence of the institutional environment, which forms the rules of behavior of subjects and their responses to certain impulses generated by the society, individual public institutions, and the interconnected subjects themselves in the process of their functioning and development. It is proposed to consider the model of economic integration (integration interactions) as a method of initiating integration relations and organizing intersubject interactions ensuring the stability of the integration association and maintaining the balance of interests of all its participants. The following basic principles of organizing the interaction of economic subjects can be identified: systemicity, voluntariness, rationality, institutionalism, predictability, mutual benefit, compromise, efficiency, alternativeness, adaptability, etc. The lengthening of technological chains in combination with the increase in the level of concentration of production and capital objectively determines the complexity of the system of intersubject relations both horizontally (cooperation) and vertically (integration). If forms of cooperative relations evolve extremely slowly, then the forms and models of economic integration develop in accordance with the development of the national production system and deepening of labor division, while the average scale of production grows and new types of intersectoral and intersubject interactions emerge.
