Prevention and Successive the Rapy of "Cost Disease" in Rock Opera
In the context of this study, mechanisms for the prevention of the "cost disease" in the performing arts (theatrical and musical) are exemplified by the example of the rock opera genre, the methods of successful therapy are indicated, based on which the thesis that the "cost disease" is only an economic problem and this is not a culturological position. With the emergence and establishment of economic theories of the twentieth century, actively developing entrepreneurship and technological progress, economists of the period under consideration touched the sphere of culture, which led to the emergence of the concept of "cost disease" as a characteristic problem of cultural organizations. This term, introduced by American economists W. Baumol and W. Bowen, quickly gained popularity and found application in other fields of knowledge - diagnosed "disease" in occupations requiring physical labor, in education, in culture and art, including in performing arts. An important aspect is the fact that the authors of the theory consider this problem from the economic point of view, excluding the cultural value of this phenomenon. "Cost disease" in the performing arts are partly overcome, but complete cure will lead to the depreciation of art in principle, loss of its unique features.
