Abstract
A change in the paradigm of economic development has transformed ideas about the economy of the future - digitalization is the main component of effective functioning in the framework of the country's technological development. At the same time, the processes of lability, catachresis and deformation of parametric phenomena observed in the context of the development of small territories slow down the digitalization processes. In accordance with this, consideration of the identified aspects is a rather important factor from the point of view of introducing digitalization elements into the country's economy. The purpose of the scientific article is to study the issue of digitalization of the economy in the context of lability, catachresis and deformation of the parametric phenomena of small territories. During the study, methods of situational and simulation modeling, approximation and grouping of species elements of a structural object, staging and algorithmization of functional processes were used. Particular emphasis is placed on the methodological apparatus, which allows to take into account external changes within the framework of the system under consideration and draw conclusions. These methodological approaches include the entropy of scientific knowledge, aberration, and robustness.
