The paper describes the contributions of T. Schelling and R. J. Aumann, the Nobel Prize laureates of 2005 in economics, to modern economics and social sciences. Their key contributions were in the field of the game theory - a major tool to study human interactions and rational behavior in a wide variety of contexts, from applied industrial organization to labor economics, public policy, international relations and political science. Works by Aumann and Schelling were pathbreaking in this respect, and have paved the way to many modern developments that enhance our understanding of human rationality.

Scientific achievements of 2002 Nobel Prize winners D. Kahneman and V. Smith are considered in the article. It is pointed out that for the first time the winner of the Nobel Prize in economics represents another scientific discipline - psychology. The main contribution of D. Kahneman in economic theory is the construction of the model of human behavior which differs from the classical homo oeconomicus model and reflects the peculiarities of human behavior more exactly. V. Smith is considered to be the father of experimental economics. By means of laboratory experiments he confirmed some basic theoretical hypotheses. Awarding the Prize to these scientists is the great step towards strengthening the interdisciplinary cooperation in the sphere of social sciences.

The paper considers the contribution of Richard Thaler, Nobel Memorial Prize in Economic Sciences winner - 2017, to contemporary behavioural economics as an independent area of economics research. It covers the interactions of behavioural economics with experimental and empirical research, and the use of behavioural models to explain various phenomena of individual decisions, group interactions, financial market behaviour etc. Specific attention is paid to the practice of behavioural "nudging" and its methodological foundations (libertarian paternalism), as well as the role and place of behavioural research in modern economics in general.

The present research featured the agrotechnical prerequisites of the agrarian reform introduced by P. A. Stolypin. The article focuses on the agrotechnical crisis in the rural Russian in the post-reform period. However, the complex and debatable matter of the effect of the community on the crisis was beyond the scope of the study. The author believes that the crisis of the three-field system was connected with the natural population increase and the agricultural overpopulation. The paper describes the methods used by Russian farmers to deal with the lack or agricultural lands and reveals their extensive nature. The author summarized and analyzed options for overcoming the agrotechnical crisis proposed by various state, political, and public figures in the late XIX century. A radical modernization of the Russian village was necessary to overcome the agrotechnical crisis and move on to intensive production forms, and the state policy should have become the instrument of that modernization. The agrarian reform conducted by P. A. Stolypin proved to have some agrotechnical prerequisites. ; Рассмотрена проблема агротехнических предпосылок аграрной реформы П. А. Столыпина. Предмет – агротехнический кризис в российской деревне пореформенного периода, при этом сложный и дискуссионный вопрос о влиянии общины на кризисные явления в русской деревне выведен автором за рамки исследования. Выявлена связь кризиса трехпольной системы с естественным приростом и аграрным перенаселением в России. Определены использовавшиеся крестьянами методы борьбы с аграрной теснотой, выявлен их экстенсивный характер. Обобщены и проанализированы варианты преодоления агротехнического кризиса, предлагавшиеся государственными, политическими и общественными деятелями в конце XIX в. Доказано, что для преодоления агротехнического кризиса была необходима глубокая модернизация российской деревни, инструментом такой модернизации должна была стать государственная политика, также был необходим переход к интенсивным формам производства. Выводы показывают наличие агротехнических предпосылок Столыпинской модернизации сельского хозяйства.
