Ecological traditions are the most important elements of the traditional economic system. They are features distinguishing the traditional economy from the innovation-based one and characterizing intra-system relations of the traditional economy. Therefore, transformation of ecological traditions to a model of environmental management aimed at extracting the maximum short-term benefit (a priority of individual interest above public ones) becomes one of the destructive processes that is destroying the traditional economic system. On the contrary, preservation of ecological traditions contributes to the sustainability of the traditional economic system and protects the environment.

The concept "traditional economic system" is a "live" model that changes and reflects the evolution of both social relations and ideas about them.
