Integration Strategies for Sustainable Positioning of Shipping Companies in the Maritime Trade Market System

Introduction. The maritime transport of individual countries, operating in a single space of the World Ocean, determines the tasks and problems of creating standard requirements for the reliability of cargo flows and system security of operation. This significantly differentiates the conditions for the development of maritime transport as a subsystem of the global maritime transport market between its individual structures, on the one hand, and national maritime transport complexes, on the other. This is what determines the expediency of various integration processes in the system of the maritime trade market.
 Aim and tasks. The study examined the role of integration technologies in the global maritime trade market and the analysis of the development of the country's maritime transport complex in relation to its real needs for participation in integration processes, as well as possible strategies for integration principles and finding ways to implement such strategies in the activities of the country.
 Results. The study resulted in the identification of three approaches to the forms of integration in the maritime trade market. The first form includes the processes of creating the gross national product based on the international division of labor, when the global sectoral equilibrium is achieved by combining the technology of producers of one country with the resources and territory of another state. The second form of integration is the M&A strategy for the further development of shipping companies and other enterprises of the maritime complex. The third form is the interaction of individual maritime transport enterprises in intermodal connections. The implementation of all the above forms of integration is in line with globalization trends in the socio-economic development, achievements of technological progress and strategic interests of shipping companies.
 Conclusions. The development of maritime transport in terms of integration characteristics and technical priorities reflects the principle of sustainability. At the same time, activities are separated in the system of achieving a balance in the state of the main components of the transport services market according to the criteria for optimizing the investment flow. The latter necessitates a constant search for optimization of the fleet's carrying capacity and cargo terminal throughput. The main thing is to study the optimization of development from the perspective of both macroeconomic and business structures.

Ensuring road safety is a complex and multifaceted problem. Therefore, measures to prevent road accidents (hereinafter referred to as road accidents) should be comprehensive. Accident prevention activities directly affect their dynamics. Since the line between them lies in the sphere of consequences, and violations can be and often are completely identical, preventive work aimed at preventing road accidents can be generally qualitatively homogeneous. Organizational support of preventive measures is the content of road accident prevention and it is in their implementation that the specific features of this type of prevention as an independent subsystem of social prevention are revealed. The core of the prevention system is the development and implementation of a set of preventive measures. Prevention of offenses is determined by the general goal of social prevention — to prevent offenses, to prevent antisocial behavior, and is carried out at the same levels, in the same forms and by the same means, taking into account the delicacy. In this area, it is impossible to do without the achievements of technological progress. In all EU member states, without exception, technical means of ensuring road safety have become widely used.

Sustainable Development

In the eighteenth century, the economic problem was reformulated according to a particular set of politico-economic components, in which the pursuit of individual freedom was elevated to an ethical and political ideal. Subsequent developments of this individualist philosophy together with the achievements of technological progress now appear as a threat to future existence. Extensive environmental degradation and persistent global inequalities of wealth demand a new reformulation of the economic problem. Sustainable development has emerged as the most recent economic strategy for addressing concerns about ecological integrity and social justice. Although there is a recognized continuum of understanding about the concept - from conservative to radical - it has been argued that only the radical version of sustainable development embodies the ethical capacity to address these concerns. Simultaneously the perennial existential question How should we live? has been raised anew along with the novel ethico-moral question: How should we arrange our systems of production and consumption to ensure the sustainability of the Earth under conditions of conspicuous and pressing environmentally limiting conditions? Moreover, the strong normative dimension embodied in the radical version of sustainability represents a challenge to liberal democracy and its understanding of individual and collective goods. I argue that the radical approach has the capacity to relieve what is an inherently acute tension of modern life and to reconcile individual autonomy with the wider social and ecological good.
