Глубокое многогранное исследование конкурентной среды современного отраслевого рынка невозможно представить без анализа ее качественных и количественных параметров, представляющих собой единое целое. При формировании собственного методологического подхода к декомпозиции конкурентной среды конкретного рынка каждой исследователь сталкивается с необходимостью отобрать инструментарий, отвечающий вызовам ее современного состояния. Обычно анализу конкурентной среды рынков посвящены работы современных авторов, являющихся в той или иной степени последователями институционального подхода. В их работах внимание уделяется институциональной структуре конкурентной среды, а также количественным параметрам функционирования рыночных агентов. Тем не менее, для анализа эволюции конкурентной среды необходимо понимать ее предшествующие состояния, а также научный категориальный аппарат, сквозь призму которого на нее смотрели наши предшественники в силу протекавших на тот момент социально-экономических процессов, а также дискуссии, которая имела место в науке в тот или иной период. Целью исследования является анализ и сопоставление концепций конкуренции представителей австрийской школы. Объектом исследования выступили теоретическая концепция конкуренции и конкурентной среды. Предметом исследования выступила эволюция трактовок данных категорий представителями австрийской школы. Пробел в тонком понимании стройной концепции конкурентной среды у некоторых направлений в экономической науке подтолкнул нас обратиться к трудам представителей австрийской школы с целью сформировать четкое представление их видения сил конкуренции и определения конкурентной среды рынков. Наше исследование позволило систематизировать и классифицировать разрозненные мнения представителей школы в единый концепт, что, по нашему мнению, открывает перспективы дальнейших исследований.

A deep multifaceted study of the modern industry market's competitive environment is impossible to imagine without analyzing its qualitative and quantitative parameters, which represent a single integrated whole. When forming its own methodological approach to the decomposition of the market's competitive environment, each researcher faces the need to choose a relevant toolkit that meets the challenges of its current state. Usually, the works of modern authors, who are the followers of the institutional approach, are devoted to the analysis of the markets' competitive environment. Their works pay attention to the institutional structure of the competitive environment, as well as to the quantitative parameters of market agents' functioning. Nevertheless, in order to analyze the evolution of the competitive environment it is necessary to understand its previous states, as well as the scientific categorical apparatus through the prism of which the predecessors looked at it due to the modern socio-economic processes taking place at that time, as well as the discussion that took place in economic science in this or that period. The aim of the research is to analyze and compare the concepts of competition of representatives of the Austrian school. The object of the study is the theoretical concept of competition and competitive environment. The subject of the study is the evolution of the interpretation of these categories by the representatives of the Austrian school. The gap in the detailed understanding of the presence or absence of a coherent concept of competitive environment in some areas of economic science prompted us to turn to the works of representatives of the Austrian school in order to form a clear understanding of their vision of the competitive forces and the definition of the market competitive environment. Our research allowed systematizing and classifying the disparate opinions of the school's representatives into a single concept, which, in our opinion, opens up prospects for further research.
