INCLUSIVE VOLUNTEERING AS A DIRECTION OF VOLUNTEER ACTIVITY

Increasingly, volunteering in Ukraine is seen as one of the important means of social development, learning and mastering new knowledge, skills and abilities, as well as one of the ways to develop a strong legal Ukraine – a state that protects human rights, values the individual, supports European values and forms civil society. Research on the benefits of volunteering shows that volunteering can play a significant role in the process of learning and further engaging people with disabilities in a new socio-cultural environment. The purpose of the article is to analyze the concept of «inclusive volunteering» and reveal its essence as a type of volunteer activity. Society often overlooks the many talents that exist among people with special needs. More often than not, people with special needsare seen only as recipients of volunteer services, rather than those who can provide them. With this in mind, the term «inclusive volunteering» has emerged in recent years to support society’s efforts to achieve inclusion.The first attempts to use volunteering as a means of combating the social isolation of people with disabilities arose in connection with the emergence of unemployment and labor decisions, but very soon attention spread to health and the sphere of integration of specific social groups through volunteering. The original term «inclusive volunteering» was associated with the involvement of people with intellectual disabilities in volunteering, but due to its popularity, the meaning of the term has expanded and is now used as a general term for the involvement of people at risk of social exclusion in various activities through volunteering.

Future Plans and Durable Solutions for War Affected Population in FR of Yugoslavia

Judging by the future plans expressed in the Census, 410.3 thousand refugees and other war affected persons intend to permanently settle in the FR of Yugoslavia, while approximately 54 thousand persons are planning repatriation. The census results show that the younger, better educated, employed and those with their own apartments, more than others wish to remain in the FR of Yugoslavia. War-affected persons of other than Serb nationality, the elderly, pensioners, the unemployed and those accommodated in collective centers, to a greater extent plan to repatriate. In order to find durable solutions it is important also to analyze the number of war-affected persons and the conditions under which they would return to their previous habitual residence. According to the survey, conducted by the Economic institute, a mere 4.0% of the respondents replied that they would return "regardless of everything, while a further 3.9% would return if they were given guarantees regarding their safety. An important factor for 34.2% of the respondents, in addition to their safety is the existence of appropriate financial conditions, while 57.9% would not return, under any circumstances. Although the future plans of the refugees cannot be considered as being definite, finding durable solutions, especially in the sphere of refugee integration cannot be left to spontaneous processes. Rather this requires the formulation of a programme that must be development oriented and designed so that conflicts with the local population are avoided. A precisely defined legal and institutional framework is necessary for integration. Both in this sphere, and especially in the part which will remain humanitarian in character, international assistance is indispensable.

Challenges in developing integrated transport space over the world economic integration associations

Institutional, organisational, managerial, and financial problems typical for the development of transport systems of regional integration associations, major transport and logistics projects, such as EU or BRI, have been systematised by the author. The interrelation of the highlighted problems from the point of view of limitation of maximization of efficiency of transport and logistics processes and functioning of the unified transport system as a result of their influence is shown. Particular attention is paid to managerial, financial and economic problems in the sphere of transport integration.

Экономико-статистический анализ основных тенденций развития международной трудовой миграции

Subject. At the present stage of development, migration processes are considered as one of the fundamental factors influencing the formation of society. Migration processes are one of the key population problems and are interpreted not only as the movement of citizens, but also as a complex social process that affects many socio-economic aspects of life. Goal. Research and assessment of international labor migration in modern conditions. Method or methodology. In the course of the work, general scientific methods were used: comparison, analysis, synthesis, analogy, as well as rating. Results of the work. For 2018–2021 there is a positive migration balance, i.e. the number of arrivals in the Russian Federation is greater than those leaving. The main influx of migrants comes from the CIS countries, and a large share of them is a labor force with a fairly low level of professional training. At the same time, one of the characteristic features of migration in Russia is the uneven distribution of flows across the territory of the state. Most migrants are sent, as a rule, to the Central and Northwestern federal districts, since they are the most economically attractive for migrants. Conclusion. Taking into account previously identified trends and research into foreign experience in migration policy, the following directions have been formulated: in the field of interstate regulation of labor migration, taking into account agreements with foreign countries – Russia’s key migration partners; in the field of general issues of regulating labor migration in the interests of the Russian labor market; in the field of ensuring working and living conditions for migrant workers; in the sphere of integration of some migrant workers into Russian society; in the field of improving the system of statistical accounting and monitoring of labor migration.

«Правый дрейф» в Латинской Америке: причины, итоги и перспективы

After the "golden decade" (2003 - 2013) in Latin America came the pe-riod of economic stagnation and the deterioration of the social situa-tion, aggravated by the pandemic. The author analyzes the reasons for the defeat of the left political forces in the elections and the onset of the so-called "right drift". Special attention is paid to the ideology and practical activities of the governments of the right spectrum, to the par-ticularities of various case studies and to the negative consequences of the “right turn” for the region. The return to the corrected neo-liberal model did not lead to the expected economic efficiency and did not contribute to the solution of accumulated social problems. That is why at the beginning of the new electoral cycle, protest voting again plays a key role. The traditional and new left, having strengthened their positions, received another chance to restrain centrifugal tendencies in the sphere of economic and political integration, to restore “unity in diversity” of Latin America and to contribute to the creation of a polycentric world. If the leftist governments do not realize these opportunities, in the future the political pendulum may again swing to the right.

The ‘Private’ Sphere of Integration? Reconfiguring Gender Roles Within Syrian Refugee Families in the UK

Drawing on qualitative research with resettled Syrian refugee families in Oxfordshire, UK, this article explores changes in gender roles and norms within these families. While issues related to the integration of refugees have been a central concern in policy discussions in the Global North, most research undertaken has been ‘gender-blind’, consequently making invisible the different experiences encountered by male and female refugees in the process of integration. Based on 60 semi-structured interviews with resettled Syrian families, 20 interviews with staff members from local NGOs and government agencies, and two focus group discussions with female refugees, we discovered that changes in gender roles and responsibilities often resulted in confusion, disputes, and tension between wives and husbands. By exploring these ‘private’ challenges, the article ultimately proposes a more holistic understanding of refugee integration, shedding more light on the socio-cultural dimension of integration—crucial knowledge for facilitating the smooth adjustment of refugees into a very different living environment.

Results of integration of Ukrainian education into the European educational area

The article examines issues related to the integration of the educational system of Ukraine into the European educational area. Based on the analysis of the legal framework of the European institutions regulating issues in education and the humanitarian sphere, the chronology of the creation of a common European educational area from the Bologna Declaration to the present is generalized. The key decisions and their achievements are determined, the peculiarities of the course of integration processes in EU education are traced. It was found that the indicators of the success of the implementation of decisions in the field of education are primarily numerical indicators that set the boundaries of both positive and negative phenomena in education. On the basis of normative documents, analytical articles and other documents adopted in Ukraine, an attempt is made to summarize information on measures implemented in Ukraine aimed at European integration in education, and to identify those challenges that need to be addressed in the context of new socio-political, economic and humanitarian challenges. Tasks facing education in the sphere of integration are: coordination with European countries of key indicators that characterize the level of education; determination of quantitative parameters of education quality, achievement of which is necessary; optimization of management models and investments in education, including by foreign investors, business structures at both the state and regional levels, taking into account decentralization; transformation of the content of education from the standpoint of the competence approach; development of valid methods of assessment of subject competencies; bringing education closer to both social needs and the needs of the labor market.

On the Implementation of Policies and Measures in the Field of Economic Integration and Entrepreneurship within the Framework of the Eurasian Economic Union

The article examines the situation in the sphere of economic integration and entrepreneurship within the Eurasian Economic Union, related to the pandemic of coronavirus infection, proposed possible measures aimed at transforming the economy as a whole well as a gradual way out of the crisis. As a result of the implementation by most countries of the world of measures to limit the spread of COVID-19 virus infection, there was a drop in financial markets and commodities prices. It also caused a significant deterioration in the external situation for the EAEU. Forecasts of the situation indicate the beginning of the global recession, comparable in magnitude to the financial and economic crisis of 2008–2009 (in an optimistic version) or the Great Depression of the 1930s (in a pessimistic scenario). In 2020, world trade was expected to contract by tens of per cent, a sharp drop in economic activity in the EU, a slowdown in China, which accounts for the bulk of foreign trade of the EAEU countries.

ШЛЯХИ ТРАНСФОРМАЦІЇ ДЕРЖАВНОЇ ПОЛІТИКИ У СФЕРІ ЄВРОПЕЙСЬКОЇ ІНТЕГРАЦІЇ УКРАЇНИ В УМОВАХ ГЛОБАЛЬНИХ ВИКЛИКІВ

Орієнтиром розвитку України в сучасних умовах є країни-члени Європейського Союзу, які мають ефективнішу систему державного управління, де громадяни є більш захищеними у своїх правах, мають вищий рівень життя та впевненість у майбутньому. Шлях до цього орієнтиру пролягає для України через процес європейської інтеграції – внутрішні реформи, викорінення корупції, адаптацію до європейських стандартів, економічну інтеграцію та політичну асоціацію з ЄС. Тому актуальними є питання формування та реалізації нової державної політики у сфері європейської інтеграції, яка відповідає існуючим викликам сьогодення.
 Деяке зниження показника підтримки євроінтеграції серед населення України в останні роки може свідчити про зниження ефективності та результативності державної політики у сфері європейської інтеграції, яка потребує трансформації у відповідних напрямах її реалізації в сучасних умовах глобальних викликів для України.
 Результативність державної політики у сфері європейської інтеграції України значною мірою залежить від вчасного виконання нашою державою Угоди про асоціацію з ЄС, яку в частині секторальної інтеграції Україна має завершити не пізніше кінця 2023 р., а загалом усі положення Угоди, мають бути виконані не пізніше 31 грудня 2025 р.
 Трансформація державно політики у сфері європейської інтеграції передбачає відповідну зміну вектору вирішення політичних, правових, економічних, соціальних, екологічних, гуманітарних питань з урахуванням змін у процедурі вступу для країн-претендентів та у відповідності з існуючими європейськими стандартами. А можливість членства України в Європейському Союзі має стати стратегічним напрямом модернізаційних перетворень в державі, спрямованих на побудову демократичної соціальної держави з міцною економікою та розвинутим громадянським суспільством.

Psychological bases of occupational health of specialists of economic sphere.

A theoretical and methodological approach to the study of the process of professional health of specialists in the economic sphere was developed, which allowed to distinguish professionally important qualities of a specialist influencing his professional health, as well as to predict their transformation in changing social conditions. The peculiarities of the dynamics of the process of occupational health of specialists in the economic sphere (the stage of "primary formation" and undefined attitude to the profession; "personal-activity" stage - realization of social status at the level of the professional community; "professional-ethical" stage – values-based attitude to the profession) are revealed. Types of values-based attitude relation (neutral; pragmatic-realistic; values-based) to professional activity and peculiarities of their manifestations in specialists of economic sphere having different experience of such activity are determined. It is shown that the dynamics of professional becoming of specialists in the economic sphere is associated with the activation of changes in the internal and external environment of the subject of activity. The conceptual model of formation and preservation of professional health of specialists of the economic sphere is offered, implemented as a theoretical and methodological strategy of the systemic and holistic process in the direction of ensuring its effectiveness, presented in the form of an image of a healthy person, responsibly managing his own health and realizing himself in society, and an image of a specialist who independently sets the goals of formation and preservation of professional health, chooses the best ways and means and achievements. The developed model provides a qualitatively new level of personal, physical, professional and social readiness of the person for self-realization in the professional economic sphere of activity and successful integration into society.

Conceptual bases of the strategy of formation and implementation of state policy in the sphere of European integration of Ukraine

The newest policy of Ukraine should be to develop such state concepts, strategies and programs that would contribute to the European integration of the country, taking into account the current challenges of today.
 The purpose of the article is to define the conceptual foundations of the strategy of formation and implementation of state policy in the sphere of European integration of Ukraine in modern conditions.
 The conceptual framework of the national strategy for the European integration of Ukraine is a general concept of the country’s long-term actions, a certain model of the mission realization and achievement of long-term goals, which defines its development prospects, main directions and priorities of activity in the European integration sphere. Such a generalized European integration concept of Ukraine is reflected in the relevant state documents, laws and by-laws, and within the framework of the state strategy, strategies for development of various spheres, sectors and sectors of economy and public life are developed and implemented in accordance with the existing requirements, rules and regulations of the euro framework documents.A significant event in the European integration of Ukraine into the EU was the introduction of amendments to the Constitution of Ukraine (concerning the strategic course of the state for the acquisition of full membership of Ukraine in the European Union and in the Organization of the North Atlantic Treaty). In addition to the issues related to the implementation of the Association Agreement, further progress on the European integration of Ukraine should also take place in the following areas: associations with the Schengen area; accession to the EU customs union; accession to the EU Energy Union; the entry into force of the common aviation space; joining the digital market, etc.Integration with the EU is an important component of Ukraine’s foreign policy. However, conceptually, European integration should be seen first and foremost as a comprehensive domestic state policy aimed at introducing reforms and transformations that are necessary and important for Ukrainian society, and only then, as a component of foreign state policy, which depends largely on the political will of the EU on the pace and full integration with our country.
 Thus, the strategy of Ukraine’s integration into the European Union should ensure the country’s accession to the European political, legal, economic, informational and security space. Obtaining full EU membership in the medium term on this basis should become a major foreign policy priority of Ukraine’s policy formulation and implementation policy in the face of contemporary challenges of today.

Особливості формування та реалізації державної політики у сфері європейської інтеграції в різних країнах

Ukraine has declared accession to the EU one of the strategic foreign policy issues, but relations with the European Union are still in the initial stage. This is the situation, both because of the slow pace of reforms in Ukraine and because of the reluctance of the EU to start a new wave of expansion. Although many countries in Europe have gone through the European integration path in the last decades, there is insufficient fundamental rather than fragmented research on the benefits and risks of integration, as well as the analysis of existing experience. There is also insufficient expert judgment on the impact of various factors on the specific directions of the necessary transformations that are to take place in the process of Ukraine's integration. The main tasks facing states and pursued within the framework of European integration are: socio-economic strengthening of the country, both internally and vis-a-vis third countries; strengthening the country's position at the international political level; internal political stability of the country and so on. The main key to the success of the implementation of the EU Integration Strategy is the transition from declaring intentions to become a full member of the EU to concrete actions, which should be aimed primarily at building a free democratic society, reducing the role of the state in governing the economy, combating corruption and the shadow economy. Generalization of the world experience in the implementation of state policy in the sphere of European integration made it possible to identify methodological approaches, mechanisms, tools and principles for use in Ukrainian public administration practice. The experience of most countries indicates that there is no quick and easy way to join the EU: it is a long and difficult European integration path. Therefore, the state policy in the sphere of European integration of Ukraine should promote transformation in the political, legal, economic, financial, social, environmental spheres, which will overcome most of the difficulties in the path of European integration and will allow our country to become an integral part of a renewed Europe.

НАПРЯМИ УДОСКОНАЛЕННЯ МЕХАНІЗМІВ ФОРМУВАННЯ ТА РЕАЛІЗАЦІЇ ДЕРЖАВНОЇ ПОЛІТИКИ У СФЕРІ ЄВРОПЕЙСЬКОЇ ІНТЕГРАЦІЇ УКРАЇНИ

In modern conditions the issue of forming and implementing of new state policy in the sphere of European integration is relevant for Ukraine, which corresponds to the modern challenges of today. As the integration of Ukraine into the European space in order to become a member of the EU is a civilization choice of the country in the future. Therefore, the European vector of development of our country needs appropriate reform efforts to improve the existing mechanisms of formation and implementation of state policy in this area. The task of public authorities at all levels, relying on the existing institutional and legal system, using and improving the appropriate mechanisms of formation and implementation of state policy in this field, as well as mobilizing available resources (human, material, financial, etc.), is to provide rules and procedures of inter- institutional coordination and cooperation of key performers and stakeholders in the Europian integration sphere of Ukraine in order to solve tasks, that are: supporting of the rule of law, fighting with corruption, reaching of macroeconomy stability etc. In modern conditions state policy of Ukraine which is aimed at joining the European Union should prognosticate corresponding change in political, economic, social, legal processes in the country, as well as the improvement of legislation in accordance with the European standards. Ukraine’s accession to the European Union is possible only under the condition of building a democratic state with developed economy, ensuring high rates of economic growth, pursuing prudent social policy, positive changes towards ensuring a high standard of living of the population and ensuring its basic freedoms. And the prospect of the EU membership of Ukraine, as integral part of Europe is a strategic direction of the country transformations, which have to be oriented towards the model of social development that is in force in the EU members countries.

Китай и Япония в процессе финансовой интеграции в Азии

The article discusses the main areas and features of China and Japan participation in the process of financial integration. A comparative analysis of the possibilities of interaction with Asian countries in the credit and securities markets has been carried out. A special place is given to China and Japan activities in regional financial organizations and associations. It is argued that sphere of regional financial integration is one of the areas of economic cooperation between the two countries where along with the trends towards cooperation there is also a process of increasing competition. Improving the quality of bilateral economic ties between China and Japan and the establishment of multilateral cooperation is not accompanied by a general restructuring of competitive relations in the region. A number of areas of economic activity remain in the sphere of competition which continues to increase both at the state and corporations and banks levels. China uses innovative aid technologies to create the Asian Infrastructure Investment Bank, eliminate existing bottlenecks, and acquire strategic assets in the region. Japan, despite strained relations with a number of Asian countries, continues to integrate into the regional economy through a network of production and logistics chains and is still a major source of capital for many Asian countries. All this suggests that, despite China's undoubted economic and financial success, it needs time to secure its leadership in the region. At the same time, the further deterioration of trade and economic relations between China and the United States, the consequences of the coronavirus crisis push China to more cooperation with Japan in stock, banking and currency areas, through regional economic organizations, and further expansion of the use of local currencies, primarily yen and renminbi, instead of dollars for investment and expansion of multilateral settlement and payment transactions in the region.

Nordic Defense Cooperation (NORDEFCO) – 10 Years’ Anniversary

NORDEFCO which emerged as the new format of defence and militarypolitical cooperation between the countries of the Northern Europe is considered to be the logical result of the previous security initiatives of Nordic countries, but at the same time the emergence of this format has taken the cooperation to a whole new level. NORDEFCO has in ten years evolved from the structure aimed at enhancing the effectiveness of defence expenditures to the forum on security issues of the Northern Europe. Nordic countries did not manage, however, to achieve significant progress on most proposals laid out in the Stoltenberg Report of 2009. Nevertheless, as foreign policies of Nordic countries continue to converge, NORDEFCO continues to retain its value and significance, even if it is taken into account that the multilateral cooperation within the framework has not proved as effective as the bilateral cooperation as in the case of Sweden and Finland. At the same time different relations of Nordic countries with the EU and NATO hinders further progress in the sphere of defence integration. NORDEFCO along with other subregional initiatives such as NG12, NB8 and e-PINE (NB8+USA) has the potential to serve as the groundwork for a full-fledged security forum in the Baltic Sea region.

Formation and implementation of the State Policy in the sphere of European integration of Ukraine: problems and contradictions

The purpose of the article is to identify the problems and contradictions of the state policy in the sphere of European integration of Ukraine and to justify the ways of overcoming them in the current conditions.
 The main internal problem that hinders the European integration course of Ukraine, experts consider, first of all, inefficiency of the public administration system – insufficient level of competence of civil servants, excessive bureaucracy, unreformed and corrupt public administration system. The top five major internal problems also include: the situation in the Donbas (including both armed conflict and public sentiment), high levels of corruption in Ukrainian society, ineffective policy of informing the population about European integration, lack of consensus in the political and social issues.
 The opinion that aggression, pressure and all-out hindrance from Russia will be a major external challenge for Ukraine’s European course, is shared by all experts interviewed. Among the major external obstacles, experts also cite internal problems of the EU itself, opposition or waiting position on the part of some EU members who do not want to break their ties with Russia, as well as the lack of a unified position in the European Union regarding the European perspective of Ukraine and the EU enlargement in general. Experts consider that the most effective factor contributing to the increase of the support of European integration in Ukrainian society is the successful implementation of internal reforms and the positive effect of ordinary citizens on them.
 In today’s context, Ukraine’s accession to the EU remains a goal for which it is active in political, legal, economic and other spheres. Conclusions from this research and perspectives of future development in current area. At the present stage of social development the process of forming and implementing effective and effective state policy in the field of European integration is of particular importance. Ukraine’s accession to the EU is a long-term issue, which depends on both the effectiveness of internal reforms and the transformation processes in the EU. However, Ukraine already needs to insist on giving it a formal EU membership perspective.

ADMINISTRATIVE AND LEGAL INSTRUMENTS FOR ENSURING THE IMPLEMENTATION OF STATE POLICY IN THE FIELD OF EUROPEAN INTEGRATION OF UKRAINE

The article is devoted to determining the list of administrative and legal instruments for ensuring the implementation of state policy in the field of European integration of Ukraine. In order to achieve the stated purpose, it seems necessary to solve the following research problems: 1) to analyze the domestic scientific literature devoted to understanding the category of “administrative and legal instruments” or its analogues; 2) identify the types of administrative and legal instruments used by public administration entities in implementing state policy in the field of European integration of Ukraine; 3) to specify the prospects of expanding the list of administrative and legal instruments that public administration entities may use in implementing state policy in the field of European integration of Ukraine. As a result of the study the following conclusions are reached: they use the appropriate administrative and legal instruments to perform the tasks assigned to the subjects of the public administration of Ukraine involved in the implementation of state policy in the sphere of European integration of Ukraine. The conducted research allows to state that the specifics of this direction of state policy of Ukraine determines their insignificant list. These include: by-laws, planning acts and information acts; the necessity of introducing a clear procedure for involving civil society institutions and interested individuals in developing, discussing and monitoring the implementation of state policy plans in the field of European integration of Ukraine has been proved. The procedure for such involvement should be defined at the level of the Administrative Procedure Code of Ukraine; the necessity of expanding the list of administrative and legal instruments used by the public administration of Ukraine in implementing state policy in the field of European integration of Ukraine is substantiated. Their extension is possible, for example, through the involvement of administrative contracts, in particular: subordination and coordination administrative agreements. They could become the legal basis for the interaction of public administration entities of Ukraine, as well as subjects of national public administration and local self-government bodies or civil society institutions in particular areas of implementation of state policy in the field of European integration of Ukraine.

Imperatives of development of post-socialist countries financial markets

The relevance of the article in the analysis of the modern geopolitical space in which there are dramatic changes that qualitatively alter the disposition of post-socialist countries and regions of the world under the influence of scientific, technological, information, organizational and social process. The process of forming regulatory mechanisms for the functioning of the financial markets of the post-Soviet countries is linked to the transformation processes of global monetary and financial relations management. In modern conditions, the national financial market cannot be separated from the processes occurring in the world economy. In the last decades theoretical and practical problems of geoeconomics and global science have been investigated in the works of foreign scientists: L. Abalkin, M. Alle, U. Anderson, A. Anikina, J. Ackerloff, J. Arriga, D. Bell, W. Beck, Z. Brzezinski, I. Wallerstein, L. Galitz, J. Gelbraith, E. Giddens, M. Golovnin, P. Drucker, A. Kavkin, M. Castels, D. Keynes, L. Krasavina, V. Kruglov and others. It is observed that in the process of interaction of various factors of development in the world markets, an appropriate market conjuncture is formed, which reflects changes in specific conditions of market functioning and supply and demand, related to the dynamics of prices for goods and profits of firms and based on the cyclical development of the world economy, reflecting the nature of a market economy. Research methods are based on general scientific principles and fundamental principles of economic theory, theories of international economic relations and financial globalization, evolving in the face of geo-economic changes. The development of post-socialist countries is characterized by significant differences in the rates of economic growth and stabilization of monetary and financial systems, which is caused by: first, a significant stratification of economies in terms of development; second, the disintegration processes in mutual trade and more successful integration into the global trading environment due to the accelerated liberalization of the foreign trade sector compared to the financial sector; third, the incompleteness of financial sector reforms and the low level of development of financial services markets, respectively, the inefficiency of financial integration; fourth, the monetary and financial systems of the countries of the region remain vulnerable to the external effects of the crisis. The most powerful post-socialist countries (Russia, Kazakhstan, Ukraine, Azerbaijan) make more effective use of the benefits of globalization in the sphere of integration into the world economy.
