The article contains comments on the perception of 'homo economicus' concept. They cover the full rationality model and its evolution towards the concept in which a human being is constrained by bounded rationality as well as by the environment influences, who acts routinely and frequently in an opportunistic manner. The article stresses the importance of the exact definition of an individual who constitutes the basic component of an economic system. A special attention is accorded to the comparison of the models of an economic man that are present in economic theories of the main stream and the new institutional economics. The authoresses voice the opinion that despite the recent rendering the model more realistic as well as the convergence of approaches toward an economic agent in economics and sociology, the substitution of the concept of 'homo economicus' by an alternative model seems in the near future very unlikely.

The article deals with the phenomenon of labour migration of the Serbian population to Slovakia, which has started to record a sharp increase in the last few years, especially since 2015. The paper is the result of anthropological field research, which was intended to find out the main causes and push factors of migration from Serbia, as well as the main reasons and pull factors for coming to Slovakia. The aim of the paper is to explain why migrants from Serbia, who historically preferred the countries of the centre in the context of world-systems theory, or in this context the countries of Western Europe as the destination countries of their migration process, are nowadays in increasing numbers choosing to migrate to semi-peripheral countries, such as Slovakia. The issue is examined through the prism of theoretical concepts of dependency theory and world systems theory aimed at explaining the phenomenon of migration from a periphery country (Serbia) to a semi-periphery country (Slovakia). The main argument of the paper consists of the assertion that certain economic reasons may represent the driving force of labour migration, but certain socio-cultural aspects play a key and often decisive role in the choice of the destination country, often to the detriment of economic factors.

The article provides analysis of three approaches regarding assessment of the current world economic crisis consequences: financial, economical, social and humanitarian. Giving preference for the latter the author consistently proves the dependence of financial and economical systems upon cultural traditions, moral directions of native inhabitants of any state, incompatibility of business policy of big corporations with traditional convictions that do not evolve together with high technologies. Combination of ontological, phenomenological and gnoseological approaches will ensure multivariable metasystemic opinion about the crisis problem and give a chance for realistic assessment of the reason, current state as well as work out the adequate actions for its overcoming. Correct definition of the current global crisis reasons will affect formation of optimum economic paradigm that will take into account the reality of spatial irregularity of the economy development causing no damage to the peculiarity of evolution of some ethnosocial formations.
