Abstract
The object of research is the humanitarian context of offset policy, which is studied using the collection of evidence in the field of study-in the defense industry of Europe. One of the most problematic places in the sphere of trade in military goods is the humanitarian factor of economic relations, namely the influence of non-economic factors on the economic effect. The humanitarian aspect of economic relations led to a study of the foundations of the so-called «humanitarian economy» or «humanomics» as a moral and ethical category of economic relations, and military-technical cooperation, as a purely rational category of relations between producers, suppliers and importers of military products. The concept of «humanomics» is formed not so long ago, therefore this topic is not sufficiently disclosed in the literature, making research promising. During the study, the key concepts of the traditional and humanitarian economics, their dialectic unity, interpenetration and interconnection were revealed. In addition to studying the impact of compensation transactions on business processes in small and medium-sized enterprises, a special business model, the so-called compensation transaction model, is developed in this research. The model is based on a three-stage systematic approach: at the first stage, problems associated with compensation agreements at small and medium enterprises are identified, and at the second stage, empirical data are analyzed. At the latter, a theoretical model is proposed that is specially developed for practicing specialists and is tested using practically two specific cases. Thanks to the use of the proposed model, it is possible to support the implementation of compensation agreements at all levels of management, including planning, implementation of tasks and control. For the military-trade cooperation of Ukraine with other weapons-importing countries, offset models will contribute to deepening economic cooperation in the competition on the global arms and military equipment markets. Therefore, it is extremely important, while strengthening the humanitarian aspects of offset policy, at the same time actively developing and implementing mechanisms of competitive counteraction.

Summary
Traditional economic science (the so-called «economic mainstream», «economism»), by definition, was and remains only the doctrine of bartering. This, is the essence of the term «economism», used in scientific and journalistic literature in an increasingly critical sense Such economism is contrasted by a number of researchers with a different term and the correspond ing methodological approach, behind it is «humanism» or, more precisely, «humanitarianism». As part of the development of the fundamental foundation of a new scien tific direction, the key term «national economy», which occupies a prominent place in economic science, was formed It is the national economy, that is the root for the concept of the humanitarian economy (human economy, humanomics), which is being restored in the scien tific works of a new generation of economists. In addition to studying the impact of compensation transactions on business processes in small and medium-sized enterprises, the aim of research is to develop a special business model, the so-called compensation transactions model
