Register of unfair suppliers: Problems of legal regulation

The purpose of the study is to identify the circumstances under which a supplier can be included in the register of unfair suppliers undeservedly. The author has set a number of tasks: to consider the concept of public contract; to determine the problems of correct fulfillment of obligations under the concluded public contract; to analyze the practice in relation to the participants unjustly included in the register of unfair suppliers. In the process of the research general scientific and special scientific methods were used, including dialectical, systemic, historical, comparative, system-structural, formal-legal, historical-legal, comparative-legal, as well as other methods of scientific cognition, addressed to legal technique. As a result, it is revealed that there may be circumstances in which a participant is included in the register of unfair suppliers undeservedly, but the procedure for protection of such supplier is problematic due to the lack of a complete and updated list of “valid” reasons for non-fulfillment of obligations. In particular, the case studies related to the fulfillment of suppliers’ obligations under state contracts during the period of mass introduction of anti-Russian sanctions are considered. Cases in which it is possible to justify the supplier’s actions were identified. It is recommended to modernize electronic auction sites, as well as to expand the list of “valid” reasons for violations of the terms of the state contract.

The recent digital resources of websites Internet auctions as a research source for the circulation of the Prague groschen in Ukraine

The article was aimed at updating the content of digital and digitised numismatic data of the Ukrainian segment of the Internet, in particular the antiques auction website “Violity”, for searching, identifying, processing, grouping and researching information on the findings of Prague groschen in Ukraine in 2019-2024. The research methodology was based on an interdisciplinary approach that integrates the subject matter and tasks of specific research practices in numismatics and the history of monetary circulation with historical science methods, source studies and mathematics. In particular, the study used the digital data analysis and synthesis methods of numismatic sources, their quantitative content analysis, classification methods and source criticism. The study had shown that in the notional category of the Late Middle Ages treasures, Bohemian groschen thesauri occupy a leading position. There is a relatively significant number of offers of entire treasures of these coins, which are evenly distributed throughout the territory of the Prague groschen circulation in Ukraine. The digital data sample analysis by the criterion of “location” allowed obtaining conditionally reliable data on the number of new finds of Prague groschen in certain regions of Ukraine. The finds geographical distribution practically coincides with the area of the coinage type circulation in the Ukrainian lands in the 14th-15th centuries. The digital data sample content analysis by the issuer criterion showed the absolute predominance of coins minted by Wenceslas IV (1378-1419). The second largest group of coins is the coinage of Charles I (1346-1378), and the third is the issue of John I of Luxembourg (1310-1346). The finds selection of clipped Prague groschen based on the criterion of “location” indicated that they belonged to John I and Charles I and originated from Lviv and Khmelnytskyi regions within the historical regions of Galicia and Podillia. A small group consists of coins with countermarks of German cities, which are recorded exclusively on the coins of King Wenceslas IV (1378-1419). The practical significance of the study lies in the introduction of a group of digital data from the newest numismatic sources into scientific circulation, which allows to clarify the geography and chronology of the Prague groschen circulation in Ukraine in the 14th-15th centuries

Governance in times of war: Public procurement in Ukraine.

Wars increase the importance of government functions, yet they also constrain their ability to fulfill these functions. In particular, wars hinder economic activity, thereby limiting governments' capacity to raise the revenues required to maintain stability and meet the heightened needs of citizens. Effective governance is therefore severely undermined in times of war. However, empirical research on how wars affect government procurement is limited. We address this gap by exploring procurement dynamics using over one million public purchases of goods and services in Ukraine between January 2021 and October 2022, corresponding to the Russian invasion of the country. We document a large fall in the total number of purchases since the invasion and an increase in the share of successfully completed procurements. This higher success rate comes at the cost of efficiency, with the government paying more to source their goods. This can be attributed to the decline in the share of government purchases via online auctions and the reduced competition. Thus, the prioritization of the quick acquisition of goods and services forced governments to sacrifice cost-effectiveness. In summary, the war did not lower the successful purchasing of private goods and services, and transparency was not decreased. However, the trade-off of speed and transparency for greater costs may become increasingly problematic with the growing budget constraints resulting from the war. This article contributes to our understanding of the Ukrainian government choices during the early phase of the war. The results also highlight the importance of ensuring procurement efficiency and transparency when the war ends as reconstruction efforts will require substantial increases in government procurements.

Transferring Digital Artworks on Online Market Platforms

By writing this paper, the authors intended to answer questions raised by the transfer of digital artworks in the online space. At the beginning of the study, the basic expressions, including NFT digital artwork, will be explained. Then, it will be examined how these new forms of artwork can be treated by civil law. Although NFTs change hands daily, their legal nature, i.e. if they shall be deemed as things in the civil law sense, is unclear. If NFTs are treated as things, they can be a subject of ownership, and the provisions on the transfer of ownership rights shall be applied, which raises several further questions. According to another approach, NFTs embody the right to dispose, while there are other opinions as to which NFTs, following the model of bank account money, shall be deemed as claims facilitating the application of the provisions of the law of obligations. After reviewing the different approaches to the legal nature of NFTs, features of online auctions of NFT artworks will be introduced. Then, it will be examined if the platforms enabling online auctions fall under the scope of the recently adopted Digital Market Act and if so, which rules of the Act are applicable for them.
