The widespread adoption of a new model of economy – the economy of shared consumption (public services for short-term rental of bicycles, cars, apartments, houses, other goods and services) – has raised many questions for the economic theory.

The answers to these questions are considered using the publications of Russian and foreign scientists. The authors conclude that sharing economy is just a new variant of capital system adaptation.
