DIVERSITY AND TYPES OF CRISES, CLASSIFICATION, DEFINITION AND ORIGIN OF CRISES

Abstract

This article provides a comprehensive overview of crises, defining the term from its Ancient Greek root—signifying a deviation or turning point—and highlighting its modern applications in medicine, psychology, and, critically, in economics, politics, and culture. The paper emphasizes that crises, which represent a sudden, dangerous, and difficult situation, are preceded by a decline in various sectors of the state.
