Witold Kwasnicki

 

PRESENT POSITION:
Professor of Economics
Institute of Economic Sciences
Faculty of Law, Administration and Economics
Wroclaw University, Poland.

DATE and PLACE OF BIRTH: 
April 5, 1952, Bielawa, Poland.

NATIONALITY: Polish.

MARITAL STATUS:
Married, two sons (Jakub and Mateusz).

EDUCATION: 
Academy of Economics, Wroclaw, DSc 1995, (in economics, habilitation)

Wroclaw University of Technology, PhD 1980 (in computer science)

Institute of Engineering Cybernetics, Wroclaw University of Technology M.Sc. and Engineer 1976 (in Computer Science with investigation into simulation methodology of complex systems)

DISSERTATIONS:
DSc: Knowledge, Innovation and Economy. An Evolutionary Exploration (1995).

PhD: Simulation of some class of evolutionary processes of development(1980).

Master: A model of evolutionary processes applying the preadaptive principle (1976).

My scientific and educational interests are focused on a few, seemingly dispersed, areas, namely:

  • evolutionary approach to socio-economic development; evolutionary economics;
  • innovation processes, entrepreneurship and knowledge management in a state of rapid technological change;
  • taxation – modern reforms and history of taxes;
  • liberalism and the Austrian Economics;
  • history of economic thought;
  • methodology and practice of computer simulation of socio-economic systems;
  • general mechanisms of cultural development and biological evolution;
  • scientific and technological knowledge development; methodology of research and historical perspective.

I am convinced that there are general mechanisms of evolutionary development which are common to, and are present in biological (natural) evolution as well as in socio-economic (artificial, cultural) evolution (such as economic evolution, knowledge evolution, language evolution, etc.). My interest in evolutionary processes goes back to the beginning of 1970s. During my study in the Institute of Engineering Cybernetics, Wroclaw University of Technology, together with Halina Kwasnicka (at that time Halina Gebura), under the supervision of Prof. Roman Galar, we have initiated project on evolutionary processes modelling. That project ended in 1976 by defending the Master Thesis focused on application of so called preadaptive principle to model evolutionary processes (in the meantime, in 1975, Halina ‘has just got’ the second name ‘Kwasnicka’). In the following years we have continued our interest in evolutionary modelling. Halina has focused her work on application of evolutionary ideas to forecasting substitution processes and I was working on methodological problems of computer simulation of evolutionary processes and investigating the role of diversity in accelerating evolutionary change. For work in those areas we both got PhD degrees in computer science in 1980. After finishing PhD theses we worked in Future Research Center in Wroclaw, and in 1980s we were engaged in forecasting of socio-economic development. In the end of 1980s our common interest split a little bit. Halina has started to work in Computer Science Department and I have come back to the Institute of Engineering Cybernetics, where I worked on application of evolutionary ideas to socio-economic modelling and where I have finished my book on Knowledge, Innovation and Economy. Now, Halina is working in the area of Artificial Intelligence and I am working in broad area of Evolutionary Economics.

For three years, in the end of 1990s, I was working in the Institute of Economic and Social Sciences and in the Institute of Industrial Engineering and Management. Since 2000 I am working in the Institute of Economic Sciences, Wroclaw University. I am teaching courses on Macro- and Microeconomics and onManaging of Innovation. I also continue research on my broad interest related to evolutionary economics, still developing my model of industrial dynamics.

In autumn 2001 my book on The Principles of Market Economics (in Polish) was published. I hope it will be useful for young generation of Poles, living in the transition period from centrally planned to market economy.
