“Here I Stand!” Mary-Anne Elizabeth Plaatjies-Van Huffel on Blackness as Key to the Ministry of SA’s Victims of Oppression

South Africa has many victims of oppression who are materially poor. They are living in poor and unhealthy conditions, unemployed and suffering from poor government service delivery as a result of corruption. They are, therefore, angry and need relevant ministry that could address their conditions. Most of them happen to be classified as “black” and they are predominantly Christians belonging to churches. Mary-Anne Elizabeth Plaatjies-Van Huffel was a black minister in a black church that is predominantly composed of the victims of oppression. Should those who are not “black” be included or excluded in the provision of ministry to the victims of oppression? Will their ministry be relevant to the plight of these victims? What, then, is the qualification for a meaningful and transformative ministry to the victims of oppression? What is the meaning and role of “blackness” as key/qualification for relevant ministry praxis towards the victims of oppression? Plaatjies-Van Huffel left a legacy for the church, which provides a suitable leadership and response to these questions. Therefore, this article seeks to interrogate her theology of “blackness” to determine whether it excludes or includes other servants of God from ministry to these victims of oppression. In order to reach this goal, we will engage with great thinkers as her interlocutors within the scope of black theology, liberation theology, feminist theology, and African theology. The term, “blackness” will also be explored and interrogated in light of the context of this article.

Investigation and Comparison of Some Laboratories in Terms of Occupational Health and Safety by ELMERI Observation Method

Laboratories are classified as dangerous as workplaces and contain various risk factors that may cause work accidents. For this reason, studies to reduce the dangers should be conducted in the laboratory by complying with the corrective and preventive activities specified in the relevant regulation. In the study, a survey was conducted for three laboratories in three different cities using the checklist of the relevant ministry. The survey data were applied with the ELMERI observation method and the safety indexes of the laboratories were created. According to the data obtained from the ELMERI safety index, the necessary measures to be taken in the laboratories were determined and recommendations were made. According to this research, average index values of laboratories according to categories; training and information 96%, diseases and accidents 94%, biological factors 86%, physical factors 82%, ergonomics 81%, machinery and hand tools 78%, personal protective equipment 75%, waste management 72%, electricity 71%, chemical factors 69%, fire-explosion and emergencies 67%, psychosocial factors 67%, storage 64% and general workplace layout 62%. Although there are occupational safety evaluation studies in the literature using the checklists published by the relevant ministry, there is almost no work to create safety indexes for workplaces by combining the relevant lists with the ELMERI observation method. It is suggested that the study will shed light on and form a source for future studies on laboratory safety and ELMERI observation method, especially in the laboratories where research was conducted.

Ecclesiological Renewal for a Relevant Ministry and Church Polity, with reference to UCCSA and UPCSA in Zimbabwe

This article is a critique of Reformed Ecclesiology, particularly as regarding ministry and church polity. It is argued herein that a static ecclesiology results in church ministry that is seemingly deficient in responding to the context. This is seen in the current church polities and ways in which different denominations explain and carry out their ministry in the face of the new religious environment of the 21st century. This critique demands imperatives from the church, especially now in the advent of the emerging church, virtual ministry and such pandemics as Covid-19. The church cannot afford to remain ambivalent; her relevance is at stake. This article deals with Reformed Ecclesiology and polity in the context of Zimbabwe, with a special focus on the United Congregational Church of Southern Africa (UCCSA) and the Uniting Presbyterian Church in Southern Africa (UPCSA) in Zimbabwe. These two denominations are in a “prolonged” engagement for church unity. From a strategic perspective, a possible ecclesiology will be proposed that can facilitate this renewal in the context of a Calvinistic ecclesiology. It is argued that a change in ecclesiology will result in a refined church ministry and polity. This is done by investigating the “church as epiphany.”

ZONGULDAK İLİNİN EKOTURİZM POTANSİYELİ VE SWOT ANALİZİ

The tourism habits of the societies bring along many environmental problem. In the face of this situation, the concept of ecotourism comes to the fore with the decreasing natural resources and increasing environmental awareness. Ecotourism, implemented in a planned way, prevents the deterioration of the natural structure and environmental pollution. In addition, ecotourism provides the social, cultural and economic development of the region and local people. The aim of this study is to determine the ecotourism potential of Zonguldak which has the Turkey's richest mineral coal deposits and a deep rooted history. Zonguldak Tourism Master Plan and Zonguldak Tourism Development Projects, written by the Zonguldak Governorship and the relevant ministry, are some of the important steps taken in terms of the development of ecotourism in the province. In this study, firstly the literature information was examined and the concept of ecotourism was explained.

Progress in housing policy research activity in Dōjunkai: A study on the discussion and research in the process of establishing housing policy during World War II (2)

AbstractDōjunkai was a nonprofit government foundation set up in 1924 to rebuild the areas hardest hit by the Great Kantō Earthquake of 1923. In the late 1930s, Dōjunkai established the Housing Policy Research Committee (HPRC). Previous studies have pointed out the importance of the research activity of this committee and demonstrated that some of its findings shaped the housing policy of wartime and postwar Japan. Less well known are the circumstances in which Dōjunkai became increasingly involved in policy research. This article is distinctive in that it examines Dōjunkai's research within a broad temporal lens, beginning with the founding of the corporation, and in doing so, it analyzes the circumstances in which the HPRC was established. Two novel findings are revealed: 1. Dōjunkai increasingly developed an organizational footing for research after establishing the Research Section and launching a research series titled, “Research into Building and Maintenance of Small Houses.” 2. Having accumulated a body of findings on the housing policies of foreign governments, Dōjunkai established the HPRC because the relevant government ministry lacked its own organizational apparatus for researching housing policy.

CONCEPTUAL AND METHODOLOGICAL ASPECTS OF FORMATION OF STRATEGY FOR ENSURING ECONOMIC SECURITY

The components of the strategy of economic security in Ukraine are proposed, the key purpose of which is to determine the model of actions and means of the system of economic security, development of the main directions, forms, methods and tools for achieving strategic goals; it is argued that this strategy should include five sections (1. Preamble. 2. General provisions. 3. Purpose, main directions and tasks. 4. Mechanisms. 5. Indicators) the implementation of which involves the joint efforts of government and society on levels of the state, regions and local self-government. To implement the strategy it is necessary to perform a set of tasks: to determine the basic parameters of environmentally safe condition; identify the priorities of economic policy in relation to the objectives of economic security; substantiate the ways and means of achieving the objectives of economic security; to form a set of measures to ensure the achievement of certain goals and objectives; identify the necessary resources for the implementation of certain tasks, as well as conditions and factors that ensure the greatest efficiency of their use; to ensure effective organization of monitoring the implementation of strategic planning documents in ensuring economic security. The mechanism for implementing the strategy involves combining the efforts of government and society at the state, regional and local governments to coordinate the strategy with existing comprehensive target programs and monitor its implementation based on targets. Information and information-analytical support for the implementation of this strategy is provided by the coordinating role of the relevant Ministry through the involvement of information resources of interested public authorities and public research institutions. Implementation of the economic security strategy should be ensured through the adoption of new laws and other regulations, amendments to legal acts in the field of agriculture and environmental protection, as well as the development of the State Program for Economic Security in Ukraine for 2022- 2024

Impact of COVID-19 on travel agencies in Tirana, Albania

The COVID-19 pandemic has caused an unexpected halt in international travel and has had an important impact on the tourism industry. For developing countries like Albania, the tourism sector is a major source of employment, government revenue, and foreign exchange earnings. This study aims to determine how pandemic has affected the travel industry. Specifically, the identification of the problems, the extent of mitigation related to COVID-19, and the challenges of travel agencies in Tirana. Using an online questionnaire, we assess the implications of the COVID-19 crisis on tour travel agencies. The main tool for the collection of data was a close-ended questionnaire, addressed to 130 agencies that are operating in Tirana. The questionnaire was transmitted using Yet Another Mail, a program that tracks the responses. For the analysis of the data, we use the SPSS software. The results indicate that the consequences of COVID-19 have affected travel demand and consequently travel agencies' revenues. The government's supportive measures to these firms have had not a significant impact. It is recommended that the relevant ministry, before taking the measures of support for tourism industry, should conduct studies about the effects of pandemic. Lastly, the results obtained will help policymakers and travel agency owners make necessary strategic and operational decisions.

Re-Engineering Public Service Delivery in Africa Post COVID-19

Re-Engineering Public Service Delivery in Africa Post COVID-19 James Shikwati (bio) Public service delivery in Africa is not meeting the demands and needs of the citizens. Research prior to the COVID-19 pandemic shows that African citizen's satisfaction with the provision of basic public services appears to have diminished over the last decade. This indicates that governments are not meeting public demand in areas such as health, education, justice, and safety and security. The Ibrahim Index of African Governance (IIAG) indicates progress in overall governance performance on average in Africa. Unfortunately, it demonstrates a concerning trajectory, with measurable declines in the provision of core public services, such as education.1 According to the report contributor, Afrobarometer, 12.7 percent of people surveyed in 2014–2015 stated that it was "very difficult" or "difficult" to obtain the services needed from teachers or school officials.2 With Africa's population set to double by 2050, efficient public service delivery in this area is vital to the continent's ability to deal with new challenges in the future. As of December 13, 2020, Africa had reported 1,606,252 COVID-19 cases and 24,000 fatalities according to World Health Organization estimates.3 The COVID-19 pandemic put public service delivery around the world in focus, particularly in Africa, because of inherent general system inefficiencies.4 The public service sector is a recent phenomenon in Sub-Saharan Africa's nation-states. Now sixty years old, the sector is a legacy of European colonialism and far younger than Asian societies whose bureaucratic traditions predate those of Western countries. Many scholars have conducted quantitative studies on the performance of service delivery and how governments can ensure effective service delivery. Achieving efficient and effective service delivery is a cardinal pillar in the act of governance through relevant Ministry Department Agencies (MDAs).5 Criticism over public sector expenditures on service delivery led to the drafting of the New Public Management (NPM) concept in 1982. The concept embraces new innovations such as managerialism, market-based governance, entrepreneurship, and reforms that bring about effective and efficient delivery of welfare, social, and essential services. The NPM was discussed as a major trend towards a politically neutral movement out to6 ensure efficiency, effectiveness, and accountability in infrastructural development and social/welfare services. Governments of emerging and developing economies are still searching for new ways of improving public sector efficiency. A departure from traditional public administration to public management model will impact the way the public sector operates in terms of service delivery.7 Key questions on accountability, measurement of public service outputs and the role of elected officials remain of topical concern.8 Despite the continent's young public sector, reengineering it to rely upon digital technology in response to the COVID-19 pandemic offers great promise. The COVID-19 factor in public service delivery The abrupt and brutal disruption by the COVID-19 pandemic has thrown the public service and its work force into a frenzy, forcing them to fight the pandemic's spread and manage its [End Page 206] accompanying socioeconomic fallout simultaneously. Corruption cases involving the pilfering of donor funds, procurement procedures, and overpricing of tools meant to fight the pandemic have dealt a major reputational blow to both governments and public service in general.9 While the pandemic catapulted public servants onto the frontlines, it also put the public servants and service under scrutiny in terms of accountability on both data and management of funds. Funding, management of resources, transparency, and accountability are major issues in public service delivery. Developing countries with weak governance institutions face a greater challenge of fund misalignment. Governments tend to fund the wrong goods—funds end up in private use rather than public and wrong target—service to rich people rather than poor people.10 It behoves government to be accountable to the entire citizenry as opposed to a few stakeholders. Peters (2001) notes the importance of equality and accountability for finances and responsibilities. Government is expected to ensure prudence, fairness and accountability in public service delivery.11 Dehn (2002) observes that while existing institutions of accountability overemphasize accountability for finance and fairness, they undercut performance and the...

Формування наукових парків: світовий досвід та можливі орієнтири для інноваційного відновлення економіки Донбасу

For many years, the technological deterioration of physical assets, the high energy intensity of production, structural imbalance of the industrial complex, and related complex technogenic and ecological situation, which today already carries systemic threats, remained acute problems for Donbass. The conflict in eastern Ukraine has exposed these problems, made them admit that without the introduction of advanced technologies and effective management solutions, it will hardly be possible to revive the economic potential of the region on a qualitatively new basis. The paper concentrates on the search for opportunities to mitigate and eliminate the impact of the challenges existing in Donbass, implement the restructuring of the region's economy by using the tool of science parks. The practicality of organizing and financing science parks is now being worked out by the Ministry of Reintegration of Temporarily Occupied Territories of Ukraine within the Strategy of Economic Development of the Donetsk and Luhansk regions until 2030. The experience of other countries of the world regarding the goals and methods of creation, element composition, specialization, construction cost and the effectiveness of the activities of scientific parks with the aim of using it in the regeneration of Donetsk and Lugansk regions has been studied. The article reflects the experience of the USA (in particular, the Silicon Valley and Research Triangle Park science parks); Ireland (Wyeth Biopharma Science Park); Germany (Rhein Elbe Science Park); Poland (Poznan Science and Technology Park, Park Naukowo – Technologiczny «Technopark Gliwice», Science and Technology Park Poland-East in Suwałki). Based on the results of the analysis, it was determined that the cost of building science parks in these countries ranges from USD 35-60 million (Poland) to USD 3-5 billion (United States of America). Particular attention is paid to the features of the architectural and planning organization of science parks abroad and in Ukraine. The design proposals of scientific parks, developed for Zaporizhzhia and Kyiv, are presented as model guidelines for use in Donbass. Building on the results of the study of world experience, as well as project proposals for its implementation in Ukraine, it was concluded that the creation of science parks in the Donetsk and Lugansk regions can be considered as an effective tool for innovative renewal and structural restructuring of the regional economy. To enhance the influence of science parks on innovation processes in the studied regions and Ukraine as a whole, proposals were made to amend and supplement the laws of Ukraine "On Science Parks", "On Amendments to Certain Laws of Ukraine Regarding the Activation of Science Parks". The results of the study can be used by the government and the relevant ministry of Ukraine when justifying the choice of models for future science parks in Donbass, their location, specialization, and construction costs.

Education Opportunities and Support for Orphans and Vulnerable Children in Bagamoyo District Tanzania

Education is a fundamental and universal basic need for all, especially orphans and vulnerable children in Tanzania. Education imparts knowledge, skills, and competencies to individuals. This study assessed educational opportunities and the support available to orphans and vulnerable children (OVC) in Bagamoyo District to determine socioeconomic and psychological factors that limit access to education. Data were collected using in-depth interviews, non-participant observation and documentary review. The study involved 102 orphans and vulnerable children aged between 7 and 15 years and 35 adults key informants aged 25 years and above. The findings showed that OVC had access to free primary education but had limited access to secondary education. Access to education among OVC was constrained by limited and unreliable sources of funds to meet the necessary basic needs and school requirements including food, learning materials, school uniform, and fees. The findings show further that, OVC living in extended family experience more challenges compared to those staying in orphanage homes. OVC in the family and orphanage homes experience psychological challenges such as depression, loneliness, and stress. The study recommends that community programmes aimed at assisting orphans and vulnerable children should be strengthened to enable Orphanage homes and the extended family in taking care of orphans and vulnerable children. The relevant ministry (POR-LAG) should facilitate the availability of educational resources among orphans and vulnerable children to enable them to realise their educational goals.

PENCATATAN PERUBAHAN DIREKSI DI KEMENTERIAN TERKAIT SEBAGAI DASAR PENYELESAIAN SENGKETA KEWENANGAN DIREKSI

Research on the recording of changes to directors in the relevant Ministry, namely the Ministry of Law and Human Rights, aims to examine whether the authorized Directors in a company are Directors registered at the Ministry of Law and Human Rights. In addition, it is also to examine whether the provisions of Law no. 40 of 2007 concerning Limited Liability Companies and / or the Company's Articles of Association is sufficient to resolve disputes of authority in the event of a dispute regarding the composition and number of directors in a company, which one has the right to act against other parties. Disputes regarding the composition and authority of the Board of Directors in a limited liability company often become disputes in court, even though Indonesia's positive legal provisions have provided clear and firm rules about who the Board of Directors can represent in and out of court. Based on research, it can be seen that the starting point is from the provisions in Law No. 40 of 2007 Articles 29 and 98, changes in the members of the board of directors can only be effective for third parties, as from the date the changes are recorded in the Company Register by the Minister of Law and Human Rights in accordance with Law No. 40 of 2007 Articles 29 and 98.

A relevant ministry for the armed forces: An agenda for the South African National Defence Force chaplains praxis

Chaplaincy in South Africa (SA) recently became an attractive ministry and research fields for both ministers and theologians, respectively, more especially since the dawn of democracy in 1994. The military chaplaincy has been flooded with applications and enquiries from ministers and leaders from religions other than Christianity who want to secure their space in the ministry to the SA armed forces. Individual churches are also joining the queue for enquiries. As SA is a multireligious nation, religions other than Christianity are also knocking at the door of the South African National Defence Force (SANDF), claiming their right to be accommodated. For this reason, it is important for churches, other religious organisations, leaders, ministers and theological institutions or faculties to have knowledge of this unique world and its context, as well as the ministry dynamics and challenges involved. This will assist them in order to prepare appropriately in terms of shaping the curricula and qualifications of their ministers for effective ministry to the armed forces with special reference to the SANDF. This article investigates the dynamics of the military chaplaincy in relation to historical developments along similar chaplaincies globally, the nature of its ministry to the SA armed forces and the challenges posed by the ministry context (SANDF environment), and finally, it crafts and proposes a suitable curriculum for a relevant and effective ministry in the SANDF and the world.Intradisciplinary and/or interdisciplinary implications: This article is located in the field of Missiology. However, it has interdisciplinary implications that affect disciplines such as Military Science, Sociology, Practical Theology and Church History, which all assist as building blocks towards a relevant ministry for the armed forces.

It’s all about trust: Women's compliance with influenza and pertussis vaccinations during pregnancy

Abstract Background Although vaccination against pertussis and seasonal influenza during pregnancy is the safest and most efficient strategy to protect mothers and infants from related morbidity and mortality, maternal vaccination is unfortunately suboptimal. The aim of the current study is to assess vaccination compliance during pregnancy and the factors associated with adherence with the relevant Ministry of Health recommendations. Methods The study included 344 women in a maternity ward of a hospital in northern Israel. After receiving approval from the Helsinki Commission and with the mothers' consent, data was collected through a self-administrated questionnaire from June to September 2019. Results Eighty-three percent of participants reported having been vaccinated against pertussis during pregnancy, and 44% reported having been vaccinated against influenza. The main reasons for not being vaccinated were distrust in vaccine efficiency, fear of vaccination during pregnancy, and lack of recommendations from health professionals. Multivariate logistic regressions analysis showed that compliance with influenza and pertussis vaccinations were significantly explained by women's attitudes (influenza: OR 2.88; 99% CI: 2.05, 4.05; pertussis: OR 4.77; 99% CI: 3.04, 7.47) and norms (influenza: OR 1.55; 95% CI: 1.15, 2.08; pertussis: OR 2.09; 99% CI: 1.46, 2.99). Process procedure for mediation reveals that the greater the level of trust in the healthcare system, the more positive the attitudes and subjective norms toward vaccination during pregnancy, and the greater the likelihood of complying with both vaccination requirements during pregnancy. Conclusions Efforts should focus on raising women's trust in the healthcare system as an important part of shaping attitudes and creating a supportive environment for vaccination. Key messages Trust in the healthcare system is associated with positive attitudes and norms, which in turn contribute to vaccination compliance. Explicit recommendations for vaccinations among pregnant women made by health professionals are needed, including reassurance of vaccine safety and effectiveness.

Developing and Implementing the Family Nurse Practitioner Role in Eswatini: Implications for Education, Practice, and Policy.

Introduction:Eswatini, a small, largely rural country in Southern Africa, has a high burden of morbidity/mortality in the setting of a critical shortage of human resources for health. To help achieve universal access to healthcare across the lifespan, the advanced practice family nurse practitioner (FNP) role was proposed and is in the process of being implemented.Methods/Approach:The PEPPA framework (Participatory, Evidence-based, Patient focused Process for Advanced practice nursing) illustrates the steps in the process of developing and implementing the FNP role in a country. These steps include: determining the need for the role, deciding on a model of care, developing/implementing the curriculum, relevant policies, and scope of practice (SOP), and integrating the role into relevant nursing regulations and Ministry of Health (MOH) guidelines and documents.Outcomes:The assessment has been completed, a locally tailored competency-based FNP curriculum has been developed, revised, and implemented, the FNP SOP has been approved and MOH guidelines are being updated to reflect current evidence-based practice and to integrate the FNP role. Continuous cycles of improvement/revision were needed to adapt the curriculum and SOP to meet local needs. Clinical placements were challenging since this is a new health cadre, but most challenges were overcome and many resulted in important opportunities for interdisciplinary collaboration.Summary:Outcomes from this quality improvement initiative demonstrate that it is feasible to develop and implement a locally responsive, competency-based FNP program in a low resource setting and enroll students, despite time and financial constraints. Adapting the curriculum and SOP from western countries can provide a foundation for program development but revision to assure that the program is responsive to local context is then needed. There is general acceptance of the role among Eswatini communities and professional stakeholders with emphasis on the need for FNP graduates to be clinically competent and able to function independently. Policy work related to deploying new graduates is ongoing.

ОРГАНИЗАЦИОННО-ЭКОНОМИЧЕСКИЙ МЕХАНИЗМ РЕГУЛИРОВАНИЯ МИГРАЦИИ ТРУДОСПОСОБНОГО СЕЛЬСКОГО НАСЕЛЕНИЯ В РЕГИОНЕ

A mechanism has been developed to regulate the migration of the able-bodied rural population, taking into account the identified attractive and repulsive factors (income level, availability of medical services and general educational organizations) for groups of municipal districts depending on the level of demographic distress (depressed; partially depressed; border values that are borderline and successful). Through the mechanism for implementing decisions with regulatory support, taking into account municipal strategies for socio-economic development, a targeted administrative and managerial impact on business entities, the working population, social infrastructure and the socio-economic sphere of depressed, partially depressed, border and favorable regions of the region is substantiated. The mechanism is controlled by an interdepartmental commission on rural development under the relevant ministry (agriculture of the region) and is carried out using the tools of the organizational and economic module. These tools provide: improvement of social infrastructure, social guarantees and transparency in the labor market, stable earnings, provision of housing for professionals through long-term labor contracts (at least 10 years), the allocation of enterprises own funds for free assistance for overhaul and maintenance of social infrastructure facilities, implementation of investment projects in the areas of specialization of differentiated groups of regions, including crop production (mainly vegetable farming of closed soil) and livestock farming (sheep, fish farming, poultry farming), as well as the modernization and revitalization of the production and processing infrastructure of the agro-industrial complex (grain crops, elevators, slaughter shops, deep processing workshops). The systemic impact of the mechanism will create 726 additional jobs in the agricultural sectors in the Baltay, Petrovsk, Turki, Voskresenskoe, Novouzensk and Krasnoarmeysk districts and reduce the existing outflow of the population.

Addressing the health needs of people with disabilities in India.

In India, the number of people with disabilities is continuously growing over the past few decades. The figure is expected to increase due to population aging, with a resultant increase in chronic health conditions. The health of people with disabilities is a relatively neglected and ignored area. Further, the disabled face poor access to healthcare and frequently encounter discrimination or stigmatization. These situations make them more vulnerable to many comorbidities in their health, making severe compromises in their quality of life. Therefore, people with disabilities need special healthcare than people without disabilities. There is a need for sensitization of all health-care providers to ensure quality, affordable, and accessible health-care services for people with disabilities. To address the health-care needs of people with disabilities to the maximum, Ministry of Health, Government of India should incorporate appropriate guidelines in various national health programs and work together with a relevant ministry.

PUBLIC-PRIVATE LEGAL RELATIONS IN THE AUTOMOTIVE INDUSTRY OF KAZAKHSTAN AND RUSSIA: COOPERATION AND INTERACTION OF THEIR AUTOMOBILE FACTORIES IN THE SPHERE OF FOREIGN ECONOMIC ACTIVITY DURING THE RECOVERY PERIOD

This article analyzes the legal forms of public-private relations in the automotive industry in the Republic of Kazakhstan and the Russian Federation. The automotive industry is a part of the transport engineering industry, which consists of a number of sub-sectors in the form of railway, aviation, sea, river, and pipeline transport. The author distinguishes the content and principles of public-private legal relations that form the basis of the Russian and Kazakh laws on public-private relations. The public-private partnership, laid down in the law, usually implies a social project, which must be implemented at the expense of financial investments of a private company and the relevant state body. The state body may otherwise determine its participation in the implementation of this project. The specificity and difference between public-private relations and public-private partnership, in which the relations between the automotive engineering industry and the state are formed, is that there are no separate projects. Public-private relations are formed between the entire transport engineering industry (its factories and enterprises) and the state represented by the relevant ministry of industry of Russia and Kazakhstan. The Russian and Kazakh states subsidize this industry, which consists of private-joint-stock automobile plants, credit them, provide them with tax and customs privileges and preferences, assist in the creation and operation of Kazakh-Russian joint ventures in the automotive industry, and in return they receive significant taxes. Analyzing the legal aspects of foreign economic activity of automobile industry enterprises, as well as actions to restore the economy of Kazakhstan and Russia, and their auto industry in connection with the coronavirus pandemic has required using the following methods: the comparative legal method, systemic analysis, dialectic method, and the method of legal projection.
