The findings can be used in assessing the priorities, directions and transformation of the tools used to implement an innovative model of industrial policy in the Russian economy, in the development of import substitution and formation of new industries, to form an effective interaction of innovation process and the process of industrial development of the national economy.

Typification of Projects for the Transition to Cloud Services

Introduction. Digital solutions make the operation of the company clearer, reduce staff costs, and provide data security. Various aspects of automation, digitalization and cloud technologies are described in the literature. The question is raised about the quality of the methodological basis for such transformations. Global and narrow technical approaches are presented. As a rule, materials are presented from the perspective of experts in the implementation of digital technologies. In this paper, for the first time, the author's scheme is proposed that can allow not only providers, but also their customers to navigate the upcoming transition to the cloud. The latter will receive systematic information on how to select a contractor and the most economically feasible option of cooperation.Materials and Methods. The information model was based on the semantic network as a system of nodes, their characteristics and connections. Management of the cloud migration project and the migration itself were visualized. The contraction practice between providers and their customers was summarized. The specifics of the tasks of such projects were taken into account. The part of the subject area related to the implementation of a cloud service is algorithmic — a step-by-step transition to the cloud, a generalized scheme of the process taking into account the hierarchy of elements are presented.Results. For the first time, a method of self-preparation of a company for the implementation of cloud solutions is proposed. The algorithm systematizes the cloud migration processes. The activities related to goal setting, audit, selection of cloud environment and services, calculation of the economic efficiency of the project, planning and implementation of migration, technical support and scaling of processes are described. The possibilities of determining the economic feasibility of measures for the transition to the cloud are shown. The costs of equipment, data storage and processing, software licenses, salaries, information security, etc., are taken into account. The amount received is compared to the providers' offers. For the final decision, the costs of infrastructure support are taken into account — by the customer or the outsourcer. The best option is selected. As a result, the customer gets the opportunity to work with better profitability and scale the project. Feedback is provided, and processes are adjusted, starting with IT reaudit.Discussion and Conclusion. The proposed solution will give the customer's management a system view of the execution sequence when migrating to the cloud, the issues and tasks to discuss with a potential outsourcer. Providers can use the algorithm to typify and unify projects, which can eventually simplify the coordination of the list of services and the migration procedure with customers. In this way, the parties can free up significant resources in terms of time, labor and other costs. In addition, customers and providers can partially use the described semantic network to develop not only the organizational, but also the technical aspect of the project.

Законодательная регламентация вопросов противодействия новым формам девиантного поведения в сети «Интернет»

Introduction. The article deals with the problem of legislative counteraction to new forms of deviant behavior that have recently appeared in the information space of the Internet. Trash streams represent the greatest public danger among its currently existing varieties. With the application of general scientific and private scientific methods, as well as the method of systemic formal- legal analysis, an attempt was made to determine some general provisions concerning the possibility of bringing the organizers and participants of trash streams to criminal, as well as in some cases to administrative responsibility. From the position of the theory of criminal legal science, as well as the currently available law enforcement practice, a number of draft laws prepared by the public and legislators, which are currently being considered as legislative initiatives, have been analyzed. In particular, the draft law on introducing alterations and additions to criminal legislation, proposing to establish criminal liability for committing such acts on the Internet. The subject of the study is federal laws, regulations and documents governing social relations in the field of combating criminal manifestations of deviant behavior on the Internet. The material base of the study was formed by the works of domestic forensic scientists devoted to the problem under study, as well as periodical press materials, judicial and investigative practice. Methods. The methodological basis of the study was formed by the basic provisions of the dialectical method of cognition, general scientific and private scientific methods, such as comparative-legal, concrete-sociological, formal-logical, systemic and historical, which made it possible to state some general conclusions. Results. As a result of the research the relevance of the systemic formal-legal approach has been established, starting from the legislative fixation of the concepts related to the signs of trash streaming, an attempt has been made to formulate the general conditions of criminalization of this kind of phenomena, legislative initiatives and proposals aimed at combating trash streaming have been named and analyzed. In addition, the conclusion is drawn of the complexity of criminal legal qualification of trash streaming as an act enshrined in the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation in the form of a specific criminal law norm due to the formal absence of indicia of public danger and illegality, as well as the need for further work on draft laws, taking into account, among other things, the opinion of the scientific community.

MODELING OF THE EDUCATIONAL ENVIRONMENT IN THE TEACHER’S PROFESSIONAL AND PEDAGOGICAL ACTIVITY

The study substantiates the theoretical and methodological aspects of modeling the educational environment in the professional and pedagogical activity of a general secondary education teacher on the methodological basis of the humanistic-competence paradigm of general secondary education and the concept of the New Ukrainian School. The article’s purpose is to clarify the role and significance of the modeling method as a means of efficient professional and pedagogical activity of teachers in the educational environment of general secondary schools. The principles of individualization of educational services, conscious perspective, flexibility of educational influences, democratization, and dynamism of the educational process are emphasized in the process of applying the modeling method by the teacher. The objects of modeling in the teacher’s activity are model programs in teaching subjects, a system of aspect and subject lessons, a set of club activities, individual qualities and properties of students’ personalities, etc. The author proposes the stages of creating a pedagogical model and the algorithm of modeling in the teacher’s activity (setting a goal, selecting an object, formulating a subject, clarifying the normative support, choosing a theory that explains the content of the subject of modeling; substantiating the basic assumptions of simplifying a real object; constructing a model using theoretical foundations; model examination; studying the model using a pedagogical experiment; finalizing, adjusting and finalizing the model). It is concluded that the awareness of the principles of building a model of the educational environment of general secondary school, as well as the use of this knowledge as a theoretical basis for the general scheme of forming the content of the educational process will contribute to the successful implementation of efficient professional and pedagogical activities of teachers in an institution aimed at building a health-developing educational space.

The regulatory and protective nature of administrative and procedural legal relations

The article attempts to analyze administrative and procedural legal relations from the point of view of characterizing the ratio of their regulatory and protective nature.The methodological basis of the article is dialectical, formal-logical methods, formal-legal method and method of interpretation of law.The paper calls into question the possibility of using the protective legal relationship as a basis for distinguishing procedural and material legal relations. The author argues that not all activities and actions that have a protective nature and are carried out in the process of public administration are procedural in nature. The assumption that the emergence of a legal process is connected not only with a protective legal relationship arising from noncompliance with obligations or the occurrence of other situations entailing the use of coercive measures, but also in order to ensure respect for the rights of participants in the process from abuse of power by persons making both interim and final procedural decisions is made. Ensuring the rights of participants in the administrative process is carried out by establishing specific administrative procedural actions, deadlines, administrative procedural decisions, procedural grounds for their adoption, etc. The legal process, including the administrative process, must be considered from the point of view of establishing the truth in the case, but at the same time guarantees must be provided that prevent the abuse of power by on the part of the ruling entity and the right on the part of all participants in the process. At the same time, administrative procedural regulation is aimed not only at establishing legal facts, comprehensiveness, completeness and objectivity of the consideration of an administrative case, but also at protecting the rights of persons involved in the case and ensuring their duties. Hence, the protective nature of administrative and procedural legal relations does not follow from the main substantive legal relationship, but from the corresponding purpose of protecting and ensuring the legitimate procedural rights and obligations of participants in the administrative process.Administrative and procedural legal relations, realizing the regulatory function of law, are formed on the basis of regulatory norms that provide for administrative and procedural rights and obligations of relevant subjects in the consideration and resolution of administrative cases. In addition to the fact that administrative and procedural legal relations are regulatory, they also have a law enforcement character. The regulatory function of administrative and procedural law is expressed in the establishment of not only administrative and procedural actions that should (can) be committed by the subjects of administrative and procedural legal relations when initiating, establishing circumstances, considering an administrative case, but also in their specific sequence, timing of commission, as well as types of administrative and procedural decisions, etc. The protective function of administrative and procedural law is to protect the administrative and procedural rights and interests of all participants in legal relations.Based on the above, the author comes to the conclusion that administrative and procedural legal relations are of a regulatory and protective nature.

The legal nature of crypto assets and its reflection in the civil and tax legislation of the Russian Federation

The article analyzes the legal nature of crypto assets in Russian legislation and the specifics of their taxation, focusing on the need to form a legal framework that promotes effective protection of the rights of participants in the turnover of crypto assets.The methodological basis of the research is the dialectical method, the formal logical method, the formal legal method and the method of interpretation of law.The lack of a unified terminology base in the field of digital economy in Russian legislation creates additional difficulties in creating comfortable conditions for the development of the crypto asset market. Currently used various terms such as “virtual assets”, “digital assets”, “crypto assets”, “cryptocurrency” are not fixed in the current legislation. At the same time, the terms existing in Russian legislation do not allow for effective regulation in the field of taxation and civil turnover, since they intentionally exclude the most common crypto assets from their scope. Without clear and unambiguous legal regulation, it is difficult to ensure proper control and taxation of transactions with crypto assets, which can lead to significant tax losses and a decrease in budget revenues.Moreover, the concept of “digital currency” used in Russian legislation does not correspond to the generally accepted meaning in international practice and is mainly considered in an economic context, rather than in a legal one. Such a discrepancy in terminology creates additional difficulties for participants in the cryptocurrency market and creates obstacles to the formation of an effective legal framework for the regulation of the digital economy. According to the results of the study, it was concluded that the current approaches to the development of the terminological apparatus of the regulation of crypto assets have flaws, since they allow for a mixture of concepts and do not imply the formation of a clear hierarchy. The definition of “the digital asset” is proposed for the purpose of filling existing terminological gaps in the current legislation.

Risks of using digital technologies in the activities of local government bodies

The subject. The article analyzes the existing practice of implementation and use of digital technologies at the municipal level. The choice of the research object is conditioned by the fact that currently most acts in the field of digitalization of public authority affect the federal or regional level, meanwhile, the digital transformation of local self-government has its own specificity, due to the peculiarities of this level of social management, which should be taken into account in the legal regulation.The purpose of the study: identify the risks that have a negative impact on the process of digital transformation of local governance, and propose measures to minimize or eliminate the identified risks by legal means.Methodology. The research utilized integrated and interdisciplinary approaches. The methodological basis of the study was formed by a set of methods of cognition, the main of which were: methods of formal and dialectical logic and analysis, comparative-legal and system-structural methods, as well as sociological methods of research.Conclusions. The following conclusions were made based on the results of the research:1.The main risks of introducing digital technologies in the activities of local government are: the risk of violating the security and confidentiality of personal data of citizens during their processing and storage in the digital systems of local government; the risk of cyberattacks, hacking or unauthorized access to information systems operated by municipal authorities; the risk of insufficient legal regulation of the introduction and use of digital technologies; the risk of using inappropriate or low-quality digital technology.2.The following measures are proposed as measures to minimize the identified risks: systematic mandatory informing of both local government officials and the public on the correct procedure and liability measures for the implementation and operation of digital technologies, transmission, storage and processing of personal data, etc., which will contribute to the formation of the necessary level of legal literacy; revision of the system of penalties for deliberate violations in the field of operation of digital technologies by local government officials; organize control over the acts adopted by local government bodies with the involvement of the population and the use of digital technologies to receive feedback from the population on the acts adopted by local government bodies; develop and consolidate the principles and procedures for the introduction and use of end-to-end digital technologies in the activities of state and municipal authorities; provide for the possibility of revising any decision made in case of a technical failure that occurred in the course of the decision-making process; provide for the use of digital technologies in the activities of state and municipal authorities; and provide for the use of digital technologies in the activities of local government bodies.

Forecasting staffing needs in general education: HR-practices and staffing planning model for metropolitan schools

Introduction. The development of human capital is crucial for preparing an effective response of the Russian society to the great challenges related to ensuring sustainable economic growth, development and implementation of new promising technologies, increasing labour productivity, and improving the quality of life of citizens. The key role here is played by the state of the education sector, on which the population's mastering of competences, knowledge and skills demanded by the economy and the labour market directly depends. Ensuring the training of highly qualified specialists considering the changing staffing needs of society and trends in the development of the digital economy refers to the urgent problem of management and forecasting of staffing in the Russian education system. Materials and Methods. The methodological basis of the study was formed by reports of international organizations, national agencies in the field of education, reports of working groups, as well as domestic and foreign studies in the field of forecasting the staffing status; official web pages of federal and regional executive authorities that carry out management and control in the field of education; websites of educational organizations of general and higher education; information from open data sources. Qualitative analysis of data using general scientific methods of cognition was carried out on the obtained set of data. Results. The analysed solutions have limitations that make it difficult to directly transfer them to the staff forecasting model for Moscow schools. They do not consider the peculiarities of Moscow education, for example, the directions of the Moscow education development strategy, specifics of the nomenclature of positions and certification of managerial staff, city projects of pre-professional education, optimization of administrative staff, etc. When creating a staff forecasting service for Moscow schools, it is necessary to consider the advantages of platform solutions that provide an integrated interdisciplinary approach using large amounts of data. At the same time, the forecast should consider the peculiarities of the Moscow education system that can affect the staff composition of schools. Discussion and Conclusions. Based on the analysis, a model solution for forecasting the staffing status of educational organizations in the metropolitan education system has been developed, including methodological approaches to evaluation; directions for assessing the dynamics of changes in the staffing status of schools; the structure of the staffing composition of Moscow schools; the structure of primary data; and a set of indicators.

Ценностно-смысловые характеристики тьюторской позиции педагога

The relevance of the research is due to the trends developing in the Russian education that are connected with updating the approaches and principles of the pedagogical activity based on tutorship ideas. The formation of a new pedagogical profession of a tutor in mass educational practice has objectified the problems associated with a unified understanding of the key categories of tutoring by the pedagogical community. These categories determine the essence and peculiarities of professional tutoring. The purpose of the study is to identify the axiological characteristics of the teacher with a tutor’s viewpoint, revealing the specifics of the tutor’s interaction with students and distinguishing the profession of a tutor among other pedagogical professions. The following methods (tools) were used: the review of psychological and pedagogical literature, content analysis, comparison, juxtaposition, generalization, schematization and systematization of the materials on the problem under analysis. The research methodological basis is built on scientific works considering the categories ‘viewpoint’ and ‘professional viewpoint’, studying the essence and peculiarities of the teacher’s tutoring viewpoint. Results: the concept of the ‘viewpoint’ is defined as a system of opinions, principles, and a person’s attitudes to certain aspects of reality, manifested in their behavior and actions. One of the significant aspects of a person’s position is their professional views, which determine the trajectories of life and the professional path. The comparative analysis of researchers’ views on the professional viewpoint in the aspect of one’s pedagogical activity has made it possible to identify the correlation between the pedagogical viewpoint and the level of one’s professional development. The teacher’s viewpoint based on the ideas of tutorship is considered as a specific culture of the pedagogical activity grounded on the ideas of anthropologization and individualization of education. The author proposes the understanding of such categories as ‘a teacher as a tutor’, ‘a teacher with a viewpoint of a tutor’, ‘a teacher with the tutor competence’. On this basis the study distinguishes the principal vectors of one’s professional development in the field of tutoring. Main conclusions: the singled out and theoretically substantiated axiological characteristics of the teacher with a tutor’s viewpoint allow it to be identified among other pedagogical positions and roles as well as to determine the place and purpose of the new profession of a tutor in modern education. Practical significance: the results obtained can be used as meaningful and axiological guidelines in the construction of a system of vocational education in the field of tutoring and the development of educational programs for the professional training of tutors.

The institution of popular veto: experience of selected foreign countries

This article examines the legislation of foreign countries regarding mechanisms of direct democracy, particularly the institution of popular veto. A historical analysis of the development of this instrument in European law has been conducted. The methodological basis of the publication consists of scientific methods based on the requirements of objective and comprehensive analysis of socio-political and legal phenomena, which include direct democracy in foreign countries. The research methodology is founded on general theoretical principles and approaches to determining the initial parameters of the formation and development of popular veto as a form of direct democracy. To achieve scientific objectivity in the results, the author used a full range of general scientific and special research methods widely applied in the modern science of constitutional law. It has been established that although modern forms of direct democracy emerged relatively recently, the concept of popular veto has roots in ancient civilizations as a means of limiting the abuse of power. Initially, the right of veto was exercised not directly by citizens, but by authorized persons on behalf of the people, who could reject laws that contradicted fundamental norms. It is argued that although popular veto was first enshrined in French constitutional law, Switzerland is considered its birthplace, where this institution received genuine development and was first implemented in practice in 1831. The evolution of popular veto is closely linked to the development of Swiss statehood; however, the immediate impetus for its implementation was granting citizens direct voting rights and the right to participate in referendums. Initially, popular veto was applied at the level of individual cantons, and in 1874 it was enshrined in the Swiss Constitution at the national level. According to the constitutional procedure, a specified number of voters can officially express disagreement with an adopted law within a set period, after which it must be submitted to a nationwide referendum for approval or repeal.

The methodological basis of the research is scientific theories of economic cycles and crises, theories of market equilibrium, theories of market structures, theories of cooperation and integration. Both general scientific and special methods of scientific knowledge were used – historical-logical, descriptive-analytical, analysis and synthesis, methods of quantitative and qualitative comparisons. The informational basis of the article is monographic studies and periodical publications of Ukrainian and foreign economists, analytical reports of international aviation organizations, international consulting companies and analytical centres. The article examines the essence, structure and modern trends in the development of the global air transport market. Turbulence factors affecting the dynamics of air transport are identified and justified, including geopolitical instability, economic downturns, rising fuel prices, pandemics, technological innovations etc. The impact of crises on international air transportation was assessed, and the peculiarities of the regulation of the world air market were considered. The role of global strategic alliances in the formation of the world market of air transportation is determined, it is established that international cooperation of air transport enterprises allows to increase the market share. The results of the research made it possible to justify the strategic priorities of international cooperation of air transport enterprises of Ukraine in war and post-war times. Research results can be used for scientific justification and further creation of proper conditions for the effective functioning of the global air transport market, as well as in the development of new strategies for air transport enterprises of Ukraine, which will allow them to remain stable and competitive in conditions of uncertainty and growing threats.

Constitutional presumption of innocence and the institution of release from criminal liability: correlation issues

The purpose of the article is to determine, taking into account the results of the analysis of the current legislation of Ukraine and the provisions of the doctrine of criminal law, the issues of correlation and ensuring the compliance of the institution of release from criminal liability with the constitutional presumption of innocence. The methodological basis of the presented article includes a complex of general and special legal methods including analysis and synthesis, the method of description and observation, comparative- and formal-legal methods. Results and conclusions. The article, taking into account the results of the analysis of the current legislation of Ukraine and the provisions of the doctrine of criminal law, identifies the problems of the relationship between the institution of release from criminal liability and the constitutional presumption of innocence. It is established that the release from criminal liability does not refute the admission of guilt of a person, if you give him the value of official confirmation (statement) of the fact that he committed a criminal offense. It is determined that the release from criminal liability also concerns the problems of ensuring the rule of law in the activities of public authorities, compliance of criminal law with the principles and norms of international law, systemic coherence of various branches of the national legal system. It is determined that the presumption of innocence is recognized as one of the fundamental principles of criminal justice in a state governed by the rule of law. At the same time, it is an important element of the right to a fair trial guaranteed by Article 6 of the Convention for the Protection of Human Rights and Fundamental Freedoms, which is part of national law by virtue of Article 9 of the Constitution as an international treaty. However, despite its fixation in the most important international legal acts that enshrine universal standards of fundamental human rights, and the enshrinement of the Constitution of Ukraine states that in practice the presumption of innocence is often violated, as evidenced by a number of decisions of the European Court of Human Rights concerning Ukraine.

Institute of the Ukrainian Parliament Commissioner for Human Rights: human rights vector of activity during the armed conflict

The article is devoted to understanding the role of the institution of the Ukrainian Parliament Commissioner for Human Rights in the context of armed conflict, which is accompanied by a gross leveling of the category of «human rights» and devaluation of its existential essence, and as a result, this determines the strengthening of the institutional capacity of the Ombudsman of Ukraine in the context of the national human rights protection mechanism. The object of this scientific research is the functioning of the Ombudsman of Ukraine in the constitutional and legal dimension of human rights protection, and thus the subject of the study is limited to the peculiarities of the implementation of the human rights functions of the Ukrainian Parliament Commissioner for Human Rights through the prism of the armed conflict. The methodological basis of the study is a system of general scientific and special methods of scientific cognition, the most common of which are dialectical, formal legal (dogmatic), legal comparative method, legal hermeneutics method, as well as modeling, analysis and synthesis methods which were used to formulate certain definitions, proposed scientific approaches, and to develop certain positions based on the review of regulatory and legal material. Based on the results of this study, the author proposes to deviate from the statutory time limits for applying to the Ombudsman by persons who are in the temporarily occupied part of the territory in order to provide appropriate legal protection and guarantee consideration of applications from this category of applicants, and determines the moment when the time limits begin to be calculated, the feasibility of such an approach, and models different time limits. Interpreting the provisions of the Law of Ukraine «On the Ukrainian Parliament Commissioner for Human Rights», the author proposes and deepens the understanding of «exceptional circumstances» for extending the time limits for filing an appeal during the armed conflict for no more than two years. The author draws attention to the state of practical implementation of the principle of institutional independence of the Ombudsman under martial law, notes the imperfect regulation of the direct principle in legislation and comes to a consolidated conclusion that it is necessary to regulate certain provisions of legal acts to ensure full establishment of the principle of impartiality and independence of the legal institution, and suggests options for eliminating conflicts of law.

ACTIVITIES OF NON-STATE MILITARY INSTITUTIONS: ECONOMIC ASPECT

The subject of the study is the economic aspect of the activities of non-state military institutions (private military companies), in particular, the increased demand for the services provided by them, and the state regulation of their activities by national legislation of leading foreign countries and international acts. The methodological basis of the study is modern general scientific methods (systemic and structural, formal and logical, analysis and synthesis, induction and deduction, generalisation, comparative); special methods (historical and legal). The purpose of the study is to analyse the economic aspect of non-state military institutions, based on the analysis of scientific works, experience of leading foreign countries and international practice, as well as the analysis of domestic draft laws on legalisation of military consulting activities in Ukraine. In the course of the study, the authors analysed the works of scholars who have studied various aspects of private military campaigns (legal, economic, security) and their regulation in foreign countries, as well as international legal norms on the regulation of the activities under study. In addition, the authors critically analysed domestic draft laws on legalisation, state regulation and supervision (control) over the activities of non-state military institutions in Ukraine. As a result of the study, it was established that the emergence of draft laws on the legalisation of the activities of non-state military institutions, their state regulation and supervision in Ukraine, on the one hand, is due to the aggression of the Russian Federation against Ukraine, which began in 2014. On the other hand, the economic consequences of privatisation in many industries and the need to compare the costs of the state's functions, including security, with the benefits received. Under such conditions, the business environment has demanded the introduction of a promising business activity and business sector – military consulting. Recently, this demand has been reinforced by the availability of a significant number of highly professional military specialists with experience and willingness to participate in relevant operations, including abroad. It is also understood that the demand for the services of non-state military institutions and the possibility of starting such activities in foreign countries where they are legalised will lead to an outflow of qualified specialists for employment abroad, and a loss of human resources and state budget revenues in the form of taxes paid by military consulting entities. At the same time, the existence of such entities in the country will help to improve the level of training of military personnel in the context of Russia's large-scale armed aggression against Ukraine by attracting specialists with relevant experience and willingness to engage in this type of business activity. In the post-war period, the existence of this type of legal activity will solve the problem of employment of former military personnel who wish to continue to work officially in the military and receive decent wages, and thus reduce social tensions in the economic sector.

Problems of Staff Training to Ensure State Technology Sovereignty

Based on a comparison of the guidelines in the Strategies for Technological Development of the Country from 2016 to 2024, a contradiction has been formed in the basic attitudes towards the personnel training system. The authors aim is to present a sociological analysis of the current situation and the existing opportunities for implementing the task of ensuring the technological sovereignty of the country with qualified personnel. The theoretical and methodological basis of the study is built on an appeal to classical works representing society: as a system of T. Parsons, E. Giddens, self-organizing system of N. Luhmann; works covering the issues of the influence of scientific and technological potential on the level of competitiveness; state programs and regulatory documents, as well as statistical and analytical materials. Results. Generalization of data on training programs in secondary vocational education, as well as implemented federal programs for its support allowed us to conclude that at the moment the situation is characterized by a gradual improvement, but the number of graduates is insufficient for the growing needs of production. The reasons are both poor training in natural cycle disciplines in schools and, accordingly, a shortage of teaching staff to solve this problem, and the consequences of the demographic pit of the 90s, which led to a reduction in potential students. The authors believe that the solution to the problem of providing qualified personnel is not so much in the constant increase in the number of graduates, but in the revision of both their training programs and the technologies of the production itself in order to replace the stages of operations that can be performed by unskilled specialists with technological developments based on artificial intelligence. The implementation of an integrated approach should be ensured by revising the training programs in universities and institutes, as well as attracting talented developers to the problem of improving production.

ANTI-CORRUPTION COMPLIANCE AND MANAGEMENT IN THE CONDITIONS OF RECOVERY

The subject of the study is management and public relations in the field of anti-corruption compliance in the context of recovery. Methodology. The methodological basis of the study is the methods of induction and deduction, the dialectical-materialist method, the method of analysis and synthesis, and the historical method, which allowed for an objective understanding of the content and essence of the issues under study. The aim of the article is to analyse the theoretical aspects of the peculiarities of anti-corruption compliance and management in the context of recovery and to propose effective ways to improve the mechanism of these procedures. The results of the study showed that anti-corruption compliance in the context of restoration means not only a methodology for fighting corruption, but also the formation of principles and conditions related to conducting transparent and honest business. Conclusion. The successful operation of any company depends entirely on its attitude to corruption, which it must be aimed at combating. Violation of the anti-corruption policy can lead to irreparable consequences. The issue of establishing an effective anti-corruption system in commercial organisations is quite relevant. The main task of such a system is to identify and minimise corruption risks in advance, as well as to eliminate the causes and conditions of their occurrence in a timely manner. The need to develop and use compliance is based on the complexity of regulation and, therefore, the high probability of violating certain legal norms or internal rules. Anti-corruption compliance reduces the risks associated with corruption offences committed by employees, as well as the risks of damage to the company (not only material but also reputational). The study and synthesis of local acts adopted by organisations aimed at combating corruption allowed to summarise and critically evaluate an approximate list of principles that they most often adhere to when building an anti-corruption compliance system in the context of recovery. Adherence to the list of principles, taking into account their content and identified implementation problems, will allow to improve the typical model of anti-corruption management in the context of recovery. There are key management elements that can be identified, the presence of which in the corporate anti-corruption compliance control system allows to judge the success of such a system in the recovery environment.

ANALYSIS OF INVESTMENT ACTIVITIES IN THE AGRICULTURAL SECTOR OF UKRAINE: DETERMINATION OF FACTORS AND WAYS OF ITS ACTIVATION

The purpose of the article is to study the theoretical aspects of investment activity, analyse the current level of investment activity in the agricultural sector of Ukraine's economy and identify factors and methods of its increase. Methodology. The theoretical and methodological basis of the study is the fundamental principles of national economic management, investment activity and development of agricultural production entities. The research used the following scientific methods: axiomatic (to establish basic definitions that clarify the essence of the study), systematic (to identify components within the agricultural production sector), institutional (to construct the subject-object framework of the institutional environment for investment activity in agricultural production), correlation-regression analysis (to identify key predictors influencing investment activity in the agricultural sector), abstraction (to prioritise the stimulation of investment activity in agricultural production), and reproductive (to substantiate alternative strategies for attracting investment in agricultural enterprises). The results of the study show that diversification of investment sources and modernisation of technological infrastructure of agricultural production are important prerequisites for institutional reforms in the agricultural sector of the country. Increasing investment activity in agricultural enterprises can be achieved by creating a favourable investment climate. This includes government initiatives to create a transparent and stable regulatory framework, simplify bureaucratic processes, and ensure legal and financial stability. Another key aspect is to facilitate access to financial instruments such as low-interest loans, grants and subsidies to support the development of agricultural enterprises. The results of the study are presented in the form of tables, figures, graphs, diagrams and charts. Practical implications. Given the high level of integration of the domestic agricultural sector into the global food market, it is worth exploring the potential of using customs instruments to stimulate investment processes. Such instruments could include a zero VAT rate for investment agricultural goods and measures to prevent double taxation. Value / Оriginality.
