This issue starts a series of annual almanacs dedicated to the analysis of economic fluctuations of various lengths, but especially – to the study of large-scale wave-like perturbations of the global socio-economic realm with a characteristic length of about half a century. These fluctuations were named “Kondratieff waves” after the famous Russian scientist Nikolay Kondratieff. The analysis of K-waves allows clarifying causes of the economic crises and proposing future scenarios about the unfolding of the global economy. This first issue offers a wide panorama of views on the Kondratieff waves' phenomenon. This edition will be useful for economists, social scientists, as well as for a wide circle of those interested in the problems of the past, present, and future of world economy and globalization.
