National systems of education as a factor of socio-economic development of the world countries under the conditions of digital society

This work verifies the hypothesis, according to which the systems of upbringing and education, historically developed by different nations, are the factor determining the pattern of their socio-economic evolution and the level of life quality of population. In order to verify the hypothesis, two groups of world countries were highlighted with opposite performances of economic and humanitarian development. Comparative analysis of basic socio-economic parameters in these groups of countries as well as their adopted systems of upbringing and education revealed serious distinctions. For countries with a high level of economic and human development, the most important goal of the educational process is the purposeful development of the intellectual, emotional, and volitional characteristics of children; the task of acquiring specific work skills in early childhood is not set. In the courtiers with low level of development, the situation is opposite. The final conclusion is that the level of economic and human development of people is directly related with their national educational principles and traditions. It is possible to develop an educational model, optimum for successful national development, and to create required conditions for its distribution in the world using advanced digital technologies.

Фестивалі вуличної їжі як елемент туристичної дестинації

For many world economies, the field of tourism is one of the main priorities, because budget revenues from it are at a fairly high level. Gastronomic tourism in the world and in Ukraine, in particular, is gaining popularity among various categories of tourists. The article investigates and analyzes the features of street food festivals as an element of a tourist destination in modern conditions of economic development. The necessity of scientific research of the declared subject is substantiated. We consider destinations as location objects that have tourist and recreational resources available due to the availability of the necessary infrastructure, which are delivered to the consumer in the form of a tourist product formed and prepared for sale by modern means of marketing communications in the system of integrated business management. Gastronomic tourism is positioned by us as a factor of socio-economic development of territories. The development and peculiarities of functioning of world famous food festivals are trace: Bacon Fest (Sacramento, USA), Food and Wine Festival (Melbourne, Australia), Peixe em Lisboa (Portugal), Brussels Food Truck Festival (Brussels, Belgium), Pizzafest (Naples, Italy), Taste of Chicago (Chicago, USA), Fiesta del Marisco (O-Grove, Spain), Salon du chocolat (Paris, France), Ribfest Toronto (Canada), Foodies Festival Brighton, (UK). The influence of gastronomic tourism on the brand formation of the tourist place within the spatial boundaries of which it takes place is emphasized. The main characteristics of the life cycle are identified and the factors influencing the stage of development of street food festivals in the context of a tourist destination are identified. Thus, street food festivals not only involve tourists in the gastronomic heritage of the region, but also contribute to the acquaintance with the cultural, historical, social, economic, archaeological features of the region.

СОЦІАЛЬНО-ЕКОНОМІЧНІ ПОКАЗНИКИ РОЗВИТКУ РЕГІОНУ

The study of some indicators of the components of socio-economic development of the region on the example of Vinnytsia region, namely production, financial, demographic, scientific and technical, social, environmental. It is stated that the provision of socio-economic development of the territorial community is realized through the financial content of the social sphere at the expense of own municipal funds and subsidies from the state budget. The assessment of expenditures proves that the social protection of the Vinnytsia region ensures compliance with the constitutional guarantees of citizens. The studied indicators of the Vinnytsia region prove that the socio-economic development of the community is aimed at ensuring the statutory guarantees of social protection of citizens, as well as streamlining the existing system of municipal assistance, benefits and compensation. One of the most successful system technologies that allows you to assess the impact of external and internal factors is a SWOT-analysis. The results of the SWOT analysis make it possible to assess the ability to withstand threats, as well as to overcome internal shortcomings. Thus, the internal factors of socio-economic development of the Vinnytsia region are dominated by strengths. With regard to agriculture and industry, the situation in the region is currently exacerbated by a shortage of skilled labor, namely, specialists in engineering and manufacturing. External labor migration increases the risk of further development of the labor industry. Declared indicators of socio-economic development of the territorial community are considered in terms of a set of different social and economic goals, rational and reasonable use of municipal and state financial resources. The given separate indicators characterizing social and economic development of territorial community allow to define acceptability of conditions for life and development of the person, social and economic stability of community. Changes in social and economic indicators under the influence of internal factors are the basis for the formation of qualitative socio-economic development of the region and the state as a whole.

Методологические проблемы взаимосвязи документов стратегического планирования федерального уровня, разрабатываемых в рамках целеполагания по отраслевому и территориальному принципам (часть 2)

The analysis of methodological problems of interrelation of the documents of strategic planning of the federal level, developed within the framework of goal-setting according to the sectoral and territorial principles, is directly linked to the issues of settlement. The article considers the norms of the corpus of federal regulatory legal acts adopted within the framework of goal-setting in the process of strategic planning of socio-economic development of territories, which includes the provisions of the norms of the Strategy of Socio-economic Development of the Russian Federation, Federal Law No. 172 “On Strategic Planning”, the Urban Planning Code of the Russian Federation, the Resolutions of the Government of the Russian Federation related to the role of local self-government bodies in the implementation of the settlement policy as a factor of socio-economic development of territories. The specifics of the federal policy of territorial development of the regions, which is based on the participation of not only the federal center, but also the state bodies of the regional level of the vertical of power, are revealed. It is argued that the existing “vertical” of public administration does not include an imperative function in relation to the local authorities, which are not assigned the responsibility of developing strategies for the socio-economic development of the municipality. It is determined that, in methodological terms, such consequences should include the need to differentiate measures of state support for municipal territorial entities, regional typologization of settlements when considering budget and urban development policies. The problems related to the legal nature of the federal district in relation to the nature and powers in the field of strategic planning of the constituent entities of the Russian Federation are identified. It is argued that the factors influencing the processes of formation and implementation of the state policy of regional development and directly related to the issues of strategic planning include not only the features of the federal structure, geo-political, geo-deterministic, socio-cultural factors, but also a significant difference in the levels of regional socio-economic development and territorial population.

КОРРЕЛЯЦИОННО-РЕГРЕССИОННЫЙ АНАЛИЗ ДЛЯ ОПРЕДЕЛЕНИЯ ВЛИЯНИЯ ВВП НА УРОВЕНЬ ПРЕМИЙ ДОБРОВОЛЬНОГО МЕДИЦИНСКОГО СТРАХОВАНИЯ

Increasingly, the policy of the Russian Federation is aimed at the development of healthcare, and spending on the healthcare industry is becoming a serious problem for the financial stability of national health systems, even in highincome countries. Voluntary medical insurance, as one of the forms of medical insurance, contributes to the formation of all insurance premiums, thereby this form can be one of the indirect factors of socioeconomic development of Russia. The paper hypothesizes the existence of a relationship between the level of development of the welfare of the country and the volume of the premium fund of voluntary health insurance. A study was conducted on the relationship between voluntary health insurance and GDP, as one of the key indicators of the country's development, through correlation and regression analysis.

Classification of Russian regions taking into account the structure of informal employment and the level of socio-economic development

Purpose of the study. The possibilities for the implementation of national and regional strategic objectives depend on the compliance of the measures taken with the chosen development path. The set of measures includes managerial decisions in the field of labor market regulation and concerning the legalization of informal employment. To make managerial decisions on the regulation of the labor market at the regional level, an objective statistical assessment of the relationship between informal employment and indicators of socio-economic development is required.The information basis for the regulation of informal employment should be quantitatively assessed stable regularities of the relationship between the parameters of informal employment and the structural and dynamic characteristics of economic growth and development. To identify and evaluate these statistical patterns, based on data from the Federal State Statistics Service in a regional context, a system of statistical indicators has been developed and significant factors of informal employment and socio-economic development have been identified. Given the heterogeneity of the constituent entities of the Russian Federation in terms of the scale and structure of informal employment, the distribution of regions into homogeneous groups is required. The article describes the approaches to the classification of Russian regions, taking into account the level of socio-economic development and the structure of informal employment.Materials and methods. The article examines an approach to the distribution of regions into homogeneous groups using the methods of cluster analysis based on a group of indicators characterizing those employed in the informal sector, which is based on the assumption that the indicators of informal employment are causally related to indicators of socio-economic development.Results. Five groups of regions are obtained, homogeneous in terms of the structural characteristics of informal employment and generalized factors of socio-economic development. For the purposes of further interpretation, the selected groups are assessed and ranked relative to the average Russian level of socio-economic development: low level (8 regions), below average (26 regions), average (41 regions), above average (8 regions), high level (2 regions) ...Conclusion. The resulting classification of Russian regions is a transitional stage to the construction of an econometric model of the relationship between informal employment and indicators of socio-economic development. Further analysis will allow us to assess which indicators have the greatest multiplier effect on the regional economy and to obtain a quantitative assessment of this impact on its growth.

НАУЧНЫЕ ОСНОВАНИЯ ПРОСТРАНСТВЕННОЙ ЭКОНОМИКИ И ТЕОРИИ НОВОЙ ЭКОНОМИЧЕСКОЙ ГЕОГРАФИИ

The modern political and economic processes have had a significant impact on the change in the economic policy of Russia and its “internal” economic space. As a result of the “sanction” blocking of the significant sectors of the economy, the importance of considering the spatial factor of socio-economic development in the basic development program documents has increased. The article examines the main approaches to spatial organization of the regional economy and strategic directions of spatial development in the context of the “Strategy of Spatial Development of the Russian Federation for the Period up to 2025”. These approaches are based on the joint evolution of this organization and the regional settlement system under the influence of a multiple external and internal factors, including the implementation of a rational state policy of regional development. The study examines the main provisions of the spatial economy as an independent scientific field and the theory of new economic geography. It shows the methodological similarity between these two scientific disciplines. The article shows that the basis of spatial development is the integration of specific forms of spatial organization of the economy into large and / or largest agglomerations. The leading role in this integration belongs to the regional communications system, which unites economic centers localized in an allocated space into an integral system and ensures the economic space unity. The implementation of the spatial economy provisions is studied on the example of the Northern Sea Route as a regional communications system, which is in fact the center of the “assembly” of the Arctic space. The functional dominant of the agglomeration as a form of spatial organization of the regional economy is creating such high-quality life conditions that are optimized with the rational economic development of the regional space while maintaining the economic situation at an acceptable level. These are the conditions that form communicative ties, which are the framework for uniting various elements of the regional space.

Foreign Economic Activity Activation of the Region in the Context of Euroregional Cooperation: Theoretical and Methodical Approaches

Summary Subject and purpose of work: The subject of this paper concerns theoretical and methodological approaches to the analysis of foreign economic activity of the region in the context of Euroregional cooperation, which is an important factor of socio-economic development of the country. The main purpose is to identify such economic categories as “foreign economic activity activation of the region”, “organizational and economic mechanism activation of foreign economic activity of the region in the context of Euroregional cooperation” as well as to develop a methodological scheme for the diagnostics of foreign economic activity of regions in the context of Euroregional cooperation. Materials and methods: In order to clarify theoretical concepts and identify similarities and differences in their definitions, the method of morphological analysis was adopted. This made it possible to systematize different options in terms of their characteristics and create new, hypothetically possible objects. Hence the research methods, of comparison, theoretical generalization and data systematization, etc. were applied. Results: Some interpretations of the key definitions of the categories “foreign economic activity activation of the region”, “organizational and economic mechanism activation of foreign economic activity of the region in context of Euroregional cooperation” were worked out and methodical principles of analysis of foreign economic activity of the region were offered. Also, foreign economic activity diagnostics of regions in the context of Euroregional cooperation was carried out and interregional differences were defined. The results of the study can help derive recommendations for the introduction of foreign economic activity activation of the regions. Conclusions: On the basis of the evaluation of Ukraine’s foreign economic activity in terms of exports, imports and the trade balance in 2010-2019, three periods were identified: 2010-2012 – before the crisis, 2013-2015 – economic crisis and its consequences, and 2016-2019 – the period after the crisis recovery and of unstable developmental trends. Significant interregional differentiation in the levels of the development of foreign economic activity of the regions of Ukraine was revealed. The leading regions in terms of foreign economic activity have proved to be Kyiv city, Dnipropetrovsk and Donetsk regions.

ИНФОРМАТИЗАЦИЯ И ОЦЕНКА ИНФОРМАЦИОННОЙ АКТИВНОСТИ НАСЕЛЕНИЯ В СФЕРЕ УСЛУГ В МУРМАНСКОЙ ОБЛАСТИ

The article analyses the population`s informational activity, in this context defined as a factor of innovative culture determining the readiness andability of society to innovations, particularly in the field of services. The developmental issues of the informational society in the Russian Federation with regard to the population`s perception of services based on information and communication technologies (ICTs), were considered. Approaches to measuring informatization of the society by various international organizations are presented, which show that ICTs are one of the basic indicator characterizing economy’s and society`s innovation level in different countries. The stages of creating a specialized legal framework in the digital economy and informational area in Russia are studied. An overview of national projects with regard to the digitization of different activities in the regional context, is presented. The study shows that informatization, and its next stage (digitization) are currently determined as a significant factor of socio-economic development, but there is no uniform methodology for studying the digital society. As the digital society in both global and national scales has different levels of development, it is rather difficult, to measure the impact of informational technologies on the newlife quality, and to define the limits of digital transformation. The results of the study on the population`s readiness in the Murmansk region to use informational technologies in everyday life (survey of the population aged from 18 to 74 was carried out), which identified the most popular spheres of using digital technologies in everyday life (from paperwork to shopping for clothes online) and the popularity of services provided, depending on the age of the respondents.

El derecho cooperativo nicaragüense como instrumento de desarrollo social

El cooperativismo en Nicaragua ha sido, es y será, a medio y largo plazo, un factor clave de desarrollo socio-económico. A pesar de los diferentes regímenes políticos, el cooperativismo no sólo se ha mantenido, sino que se ha desarrollado y consolidado, convirtiéndose en la actualidad en una pieza clave dentro de la estructura económica del país. No obstante, la riqueza de esta figura desde un análisis filosófico y conceptual permite extender y superar su hasta entonces reducida concepción economicista y traspolarla a otras áreas sociales. Si los problemas actuales exigen nuevas respuestas, las soluciones pueden venir de la actualización de figuras ya existentes. Esta cuestión es la que atraviesa este breve ensayo, articulando la realidad del cooperativismo y el papel que juega como impulsor de desarrollo en otras áreas, tales como el medio ambiente, la exclusión social y la Seguridad Social.

Evaluating combined effects of socio-economic development and ecological conservation policies on sediment retention service in the Qiantang River Basin, China

The rapid socio-economic development and various ecological conservation policies in China have significantly affected sediment yield in the large basin. However, how these two aspects of influencing factors jointly drive the dynamics of sediment retention service is still poorly understood, although it is critical to evaluate ecosystem service dynamics and realize the balanced relationships between human activities and aquatic ecosystem health. Integrating the revised universal soil loss equation (RUSLE) model and sediment delivery ratio (SDR) model, this study evaluated dynamics of sediment retention service driven by combined factors of socio-economic development and ecological conservation policies. Furthermore, the relative contribution analysis identified contributions of these drivers to sediment dynamics. Results indicated that (1) sediment retention service improved from 2000 to 2015 in the Qiantang River Basin, with a 39.89% reduction in sediment export. (2) Ecological conservation policies played a more critical role in this improvement than socio-economic development. (3) In particular, the Green Project made the major contribution to controlling sediment export among all the drivers, additionally, increasing grain yield (per unit area) benefited sediment retention service because it mitigated the substantial demand for farmland and the excessive deprivation of ecological lands. (4) The emerging Ecological Conservation Red Line (ECRL) policy could reduce sediment export inside the redline regions by 84.13% through future scenario analysis, providing practical guidance for exploring more ecological benefits. Finally, suggestions for formulating targeted ecological protection policies and sustainable socio-economic plans were proposed to promote aquatic ecosystem services and strengthen ecological security in the large basin.

Information and communication technologies: foreign experience and national model

The 21st century is characterized by the formation of an “intellectual nation” as a new direction of modernization of modern society; at the same time, the intellectual personality acts as a factor of socio-economic development. The most important task for Kazakhstan is the implementation of the Strategic Objective, where an important area is complete modernization in the socio-economic sphere. This task is also typical for a number of developing countries of the world, where the key aspect in the modernization of society is the creation of new innovative institutions to rethink and recreate the modern socio-economic formation. Modernization extends to areas such as intellectual work associated with the new division of labor; as a scientific and cultural sphere related to the knowledge economy and the new information society. Science is faced with a new task to solve the problem of forming an intellectual society, which implies the need for active interdisciplinary research, the integration of socio-humanitarian and socio-political sciences. Kazakhstan, like other developing countries, is faced with the strategic task of becoming a society of the future, in which the basis of the new economy is intellectual potential, a highly competitive system of higher education and an innovatively advanced socio-cultural infrastructure. At the present stage of development of the socio-economic formation, higher education successfully corresponds with the economic sector, and human resources are the main value that makes an innovative contribution to the creation of new products in industry, science, culture and other sectors of the economy and social sphere. In this regard, an important mission of higher education in Kazakhstan is to train highly competitive, innovatively advanced specialists who are able to think creatively and work as highly professional personnel of Kazakhstani society. Key words: intellectual nation, mass media, informational development, intellectual society, partners.

ЭКОНОМИЧЕСКАЯ АКТИВНОСТЬ В МУРМАНСКОЙ ОБЛАСТИ:ОСОБЕННОСТИ ПРОЯВЛЕНИЯ И УСЛОВИЯ ОПТИМИЗАЦИИ

The key role of economic activities is in ensuring development and growth of both national and regional economies. Under the modern conditions, the prospects for development of the Arctic regions of the Russian Federation are associated with implementation of large investment projects, which should give an “impetus” to development of adjacent sectors and Arctic regions, i.e. implementation of these projects should be ensured by concentration of economic activities and their further spread. Basing on previous research, it was found out that economic activities in the Murmansk region are characterized by the critically low level of manifestation and non-static type of prevailing economic activities of businesses and the state. At the same time, the region has a significant potential for development caused by its economic and geographical location, unique natural resources and sufficiently developed infrastructure compared to other Russian regions of the Arctic. This paradox determines the risks of implementing the planned “megaprojects” in the region, and is conditioned by the peculiarities of socio-economic development of the region. Identification of the factors of socio-economic development of the Murmansk region, which determine its uniqueness, will be the basis for making recommendations for sustainable development of the region, contributing to resolution of the existing contradictions. The article analyzes and systematizes the factors of the socio-economic development of the region, which determine the manifestation specifics of economic activities in the region. Analysis, synthesis, comparison and grouping were used as methods. As a result, the author’s classification of factors of socio-economic development was proposed, which can become the basis for developing a strategy for optimizing the economic activities in the region adequate to its conditions. At the same time, the optimization of economic activities will mean achievement of such proportions in the regional economy in terms of the intensity of their manifestation by economic entities of different forms of ownership, which will contribute to achievement of sustainable regional development goals by influencing the behavior of economic entities.

Gender Socio-Economic Perspective of the Covid-19 Pandemic in Nigeria

The global outbreak of the Covid-19 pandemic which emanated from Hubei, China, has hit Nigeria very hard. The adverse impact on the Nation’s economy has been exacerbated by the fall in crude oil prices. Women in Nigeria generally lived in poverty even before the advent of the pandemic. The lockdown and isolation enforced by the government since the entry of the Covid-19 pandemic in Nigeria have disengaged some Women and left many of them unemployed, thereby worsening their socio-economic conditions. Women are considered an important factor in socio-economic development in every nation. The objective of engaging them in the economic relief and recovery packages during the Covid-19 pandemic cannot be over-emphasized. Women are the main pillars that can lead to quick intervention in the fight against the pandemic. This paper analyzes how the absence of socio-economic activities has impacted the livelihood and opportunities for women during the pandemic, using secondary data such as journals, newspapers, books, and the internet. The paper underscores that the crisis has largely affected women, as many who are petty traders and entrepreneurs have lost their means of subsistence. Therefore, it concludes that it is imperative for the government to formulate socio-economic policies for women that can create opportunities in all areas of life, during and after the Covid-19 pandemic. This will revamp the economy and fast track recovery from the pandemic and give Nigeria a quick turn around.

Environmental degradation & role of financialisation, economic development, industrialisation and trade liberalisation

This paper is a pioneering endeavour to investigate the determinants of environmental degradation in Australia through a comprehensive framework of EKC and STIRPAT. Specifically, the impacts of multiple factors of socio-economic development including economic growth, trade openness, industrialization, energy consumption on CO2 emissions are analysed. Furthermore, the influences of financial development through different dimensions (financial efficiency, access and depth) in two subsectors (financial markets and institutions) and other proxies of financial development are focused over the period 1980–2014. Empirical results show short as well as long-run differences in the association among the variables. Short-term bidirectional causality prevails between economic growth, energy consumption, industrialization, and stock market development with carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions. However, there is no significant evidence found on EKC. This is due to the long-run positive impact of financial development, energy consumption, and trade openness on CO2 emissions. Interestingly, the industrialization process is found to does not affect CO2 emissions. Empirical findings provide insight into why the quality of the Australian environment is truncated with frequent and widespread bushfires and suggest policymakers to have selective and strict environmental-friendly strategies to fulfil a sustainable development goal.

Evaluating the return on religious capital in the Russian labor market

Subject. The article addresses the impact of religious confession on wages and the likelihood of unemployment in Russia. Objectives. The aim is to test the hypothesis that religious faith and high church attendance are accompanied by an increase in employment earnings. Methods. Using the Russian Longitudinal Monitoring Survey data, I estimate the Mincer's extended equation with variables that characterize the respondent’s religious commitment. To assess the impact of religious identity and the activity rate of attendance at religious services on the likelihood of unemployment and life satisfaction, I use probit models. Results. The estimates demonstrate that the Russian labor market rewards men with moderate and high degree of religious commitment; their wage growth reaches seventeen percent of the level of non-believers with comparable education and work experience. However, faithful Muslim women are employed in the lowest paid areas. Religious faith and regular church attendance have a positive effect on satisfaction with life (significant for Orthodox Christian women). Conclusions. Positive impact of religious capital on income and employment can be attributed to the development of business qualities that are rewarded in the labor market, the mutual support of religious network participants. Therefore, it possible to consider religious capital, along with educational capital and health capital, as a component of human capital and a factor of socio-economic development.

Modeling of Motivation of Top Managers in Regional Management Structures Using a Multi-Objective Genetic Algorithm

The purpose of this research is to create a model for evaluating financial and non-financial motivation of top managers in regional and district management structures. For this purpose, the efficiency of inter-cluster interaction within one federal district is evaluated using a system of factors of socio-economic development of Russian regions, which directly affect the natural population growth in the district's regions. Since people's priorities are more important, the effectiveness of their implementation should be financially motivated. It is proposed to motivate the implementation of objectives affecting the State as a whole in an intangible way. To solve this problem, the multi-objective genetic algorithm method is used, which makes it possible to obtain the Pareto frontier for the dual-objective function of natural population growth, all the solutions of which are equally optimal. Choosing any point of the Pareto frontier, you can find in it fractions of financial and non-financial motivation of top managers. They are determined by the proximity to the extreme points of the Pareto frontier, where only one of the two regressions (motivations) is maximum.
