At the same time, it was prepared by a number of changes of the XIX century, which took place in the economy, economic and social thought, philosophy... The article considers the process of formation of the concept of economic dynamics as a branch of science, distinguishes two definitions of dynamics - through the characteristic of the subject and the characteristic of the method, analyzes the methodological origins of the static nature of classical analysis and determines a number of prerequisites for the formation of dynamic analysis (economic progress, the successes of biology, the formation of the historical method, agnosticism).
