Abstract
The article analyzes the phenomenon of ownership in its legal, economic,
political and philosophical perspectives. Ownership is
considered as an opportunity and as a guarantee of sustainable
development. Comparative context is used to identify the specificity of
the bourgeois model of owners’ power (social state) and the domestic
concept of power-ownership (including socialist state). The author draws
conclusions about ways to overcome the competition between the state and
the market for the human resource and proposes to explore the
ideological provision of power-ownership in order to appreciate its
progressive potential and predilection in relation to the liberal model
of social development
