The increasing anthropogenic pressure upon the environment as a result of influence of the extensive economic growth again returns experts and researchers to questions of understanding of resource maintenance of public and, in particular, economic dynamics. Society, absorbing resources from the environment, reflects the constantly developing needs. Transformation of the economic and social structures of society under the influence of scientific and technological progress changes the society's needs, which leads to the variability of functions of the good as resources of their satisfaction. Particular importance in the description of the nature of the good, performing the function of reproduction of the human capital at the public and individual level, has its social character. In private use such good may be irreversibly damaged. Consumed by the user the social good demands its compensation. By compensation we understand the elimination of destructive factors on the good, which destroy its integrity. Due to the complexity of involvement by many users of the good in the process of their own reproduction and uncertainty of the results of this involvement the concept of multi-functionality of the good is developing. It becomes clear that the multi functionality of the good is composed of many components and is not an independently existing phenomenon (in particular, this is true for natural wealth, with different functions of the reproductive process). The process and the fact of transformation of wealth during its involvement in social reproduction can be reflected in the model of multidisciplinary good. At the methodological level, a multidisciplinary system is understood as a system that is formed by multi-composite, multi-level systems, and territoriality. The maintenance of multi-disciplinarity, reflected in the preservation of the qualitative and quantitative composition of the good, determines the possibility of realization of the desirable functions of the good and should rely on the principle of compensation of the withdrawn element. The use of non-destructive methods of influence on the good assumes the demand of the compensation approach that leads to the reversible exhaustibility of natural wealth. Conditionally reversible exhaustible natural good is the good, the method of involvement of which into the economy allows to provide its reproductive function. The need of the compensation approach is connected with ensuring the preservation and reproduction of the diversity of the good that allows to obtain benefit by the users. Multi-functionality of the good is the result of its multidisciplinary (multi-composite, multi-level, and territorial) factors.

Приводится аналитическое описание природы блага. Обоснован компенсационный подход как необходимость восстановления нарушенного пользователем общественного блага. Многофункциональность интерпретируется как следствие полноты состава блага и объединение носителей потребностей, задающих ожидаемые функции. Вводится понятие многопредметности как системы признаков, которую образуют сложносоставность, многоуровневость, территориальность. Обозначено требование обеспечения обратимости утрачиваемых благ на основе принципа компенсации.
