The development of the world labor market at the current stage of world economic progress is characterized by the systemic influence on its structural dynamics of a number of global imperatives, which manifests itself at the levels of demographic, transnational, scientific and technical, regional integration, and institutional and regulatory factors. Their synergistic effect leads to the transformation of the world labor market into an open competitive system of a global type, the quantitative and qualitative parameters of which are determined, on the one hand, by the complex action of the mechanisms of the objective economic laws of value, the capitalist population, demand and supply of labor, concentration of production, competition; and from the second – the specifics of the expanded reproduction of labor resources within the framework of national economies and at the international level. The purpose of the article is to characterize the structure-forming imperatives of globalization of the labor market. The modern economic nature of the structure-forming imperatives of the globalization of the labor market actualizes an important methodological issue regarding the comprehensive renewal of the theoretical foundations of its research at the level of the operation of economic laws and the influence of emergent factors. global economic transformations and the deep organic connection of the labor market with structural changes in the international economic system and all forms of international economic relations.

INNOVATIVE DIRECTIONS OF ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT OF THE GLOBAL LABOR MARKET IN GLOBALIZATION

The article analyzes the economic essence of the world labor market in the conditions of globalization. The world labor market is a complex economic system that is modified under the influence of the dynamics of demand and supply of labor resources in the world market; under the influence of the peculiarities of the formation of the price of labor, the formation of conditions and the amount of remuneration, the specifics of social protection; quantitative and qualitative movement and placement of labor in different countries of the world; differences in national approaches to the reproduction of the workforce, its professional training and retraining. In the conditions of globalization, national labor markets are quickly losing their closedness and isolation, becoming components of the world labor market. The strategic priorities of the development of the world labor market are formed under the influence of the multidirectional action of a number of factors: globalization and the openness of the national economy, structural and innovative shifts in the world economy, as a result of the intensification of labor migration and the strengthening of the role of international organizations as coordinators of the development of international economic relations. The main benefits of labor migration go to recipient countries. It is not easy to estimate the scale, because not all of them are quantifiable. They consist of savings on the training of specialists in host countries, the cost of products and services created by immigrants in the host country, and income from taxation. Immigrants, especially illegal immigrants, contribute more to the country's income than they receive from the public sector. International labor migration is becoming more and more global in nature. Today it covers the absolute majority of countries in the world. The main directions of modern migration processes are the North and South American region, the Western European market, Southeast and Western Asia, and the African section of migration movements. That is why these processes require regulation by the states participating in the exchange labor resources, and balanced international migration policy.

METHODOLOGICAL ASPECTS OF TEACHING THE GENRE OF SCIENCE FICTION IN INSTITUTIONS OF GENERAL SECONDARY EDUCATION (ON THE EXAMPLE OF KURT VONNEGUT’S NOVEL «CAT’S CRADLE»)

This article is devoted to the role of the cultural aspect in literary education. The necessity to create a comprehensive system of studying the science fiction genre of the 20th century (on the example of Kurt Vonnegut’s «Cat’s Cradle») at the final stage of school literary education has been identified and substantiated. At the center of the concept of modern literary education and upbringing are the personality of the student, his desire to understand the whole picture of the world, mastering culture as the experience of previous generations, involvement in spiritual heritage. To the extent that the student-reader learns the experience passed on by previous generations, to the extent that he will be able to navigate the constantly changing conditions of life, realize his own responsibility to the future generation. The cultural illiteracy of high school students, the loss of connection with the spiritual culture of their people and humanity in general speak of the need to educate a «person of culture» in a modern school. In this regard, an important role in the formation of emotional perception and understanding of various facts of the culture of both their own and other nations is played by lexicographers and the literature classes conducted by them, aimed at studying literary works against the background of a broad cultural context. Involvement in the historical-literary process will help students to see patterns in the development of foreign culture and literature in particular. An important point is the culturalization of education, which is aimed at globalization in the field of culture and education, associated with increasing interest in the problems of the cultural identity of peoples. Globalization in education is a single world cultural and educational space, a single world labor market and educational services. The cultural aspect of education determines the composition and hierarchy of values, the system- creating element of which is the student’s personality as the main value. There is no doubt that the implementation of the cultural aspect of teaching literature at school contributes to the effective entry of students into the context of culture, forms in them a system of key value ideas about the world and man, which become worldview guidelines. The cultural aspect makes it possible to overcome the stereotypes accumulated in the perception and analysis of both foreign literature (works in the light of the cultural aspect of the study return with new facets and open new meanings) and foreign culture as a whole. Undoubtedly, the cultural aspect allows one to consider the work of art in three planes: a generalized model of the world, national and cultural specificity, the author’s own model of the world and man, where his philosophical, religious, moral and aesthetic views are presented. Implementation of the cultural aspect in education is possible in the process of development of the value-meaning sphere of the individual.

Improvement of automatic speech recognition skills of linguistics students through using ukrainian-english and ukrainian-german subtitles in publicistic movies

The increased world's attention to foreign language studies facilitates the development and improvement of its study system in higher education institutions. Such a system takes into account and promptly responds to the demands of today's multicultural society. All should start with the transformation and modernization of the higher education system. This system includes the introduction of innovative technologies in the study of English and German, which should be focused on the modern demands of the world labor market. All this has determined the relevance of the research. This article aims to establish ways for students to gain automatic recognition skills through subtitling Ukrainian-English and Ukrainian-German publicistic movies and series. The first assessment of new language audio and video corpus was developed at the Admiral Makarov National University of Shipbuilding, using an automatic subtitling mechanism to improve linguistics students' recognition and understanding of oral speech. The skills and abilities that improved during the work with the educational movie corpus have been identified.

О целях и содержании иноязычной подготовки будущих инженеров

Globalization of economy, rapidly developing new technologies and enormous information flows dictate new requirements for the organization of a higher education process in the field of engineering. Taking into account the situation on the world labour market, new educational standards are being developed for training engineering personnel to gain the required professional competencies. A special place is occupied by a foreign language professional communicative competence. The purpose of the article is to consider a foreign language training of future engineers at a technical university in accordance with the requirements of the Federal State Educational Standard for Higher Education of a new generation. It is of great importance to form a basic level of foreign language professional competence among students of technical specialties for effective intercultural professional communication. The article touches upon universal foreign language competencies according to the requirements of the program for the specialty «Aircraft and helicopter design». The peculiarities of a two-stage organization of the foreign language educational process is also discussed. It is argued that the effectiveness of teaching is inextricably linked with the formation of motivation among students and depends on understanding the connection of their future profession with the practical application of a foreign language. The use of a personality-oriented approach helps to develop a number of necessary qualities and make future graduates competitive on the world labour market according to the requirements of modern employers. The conclusion regarding the modernization of the foreign language training with all positive and negative aspects arising in the process of teaching a foreign language at a technical university is made.

GLOBAL TRENDS OF ECONOMY TRANSFORMATION UNDER THE INFLUENCE OF INFORMATION TECHNOLOGIES

Abstract. The abrupt introduction of information and communication technologies leads to global shifts in the world economy, society, labor market and other areas. Ukraine demonstrates ~26% annual growth rate of IT services. Nowadays the IT industry ranks third in terms of exports of services. In 2020, the country’s exports of IT services exceeded $ 5 billion. However, as the study showed, the growth rate of the information and communication industry is insufficient to reach a level close to the level of the world’s leading economies. Moreover, there are trends that are dangerous for the development of the economy and society. The analysis showed that in the formation of a global information society there are risks of technological and socio-economic gap not only between countries but also between generations and social strata within countries and this is a threat to the development of Ukraine’s economy and society. Part of the population is not provided with adequate conditions to increase their own potential, which is the main driver of economic development. This is the basis for the formation of the «digital» gap and slows down social and economic reforms. The systematization of the main features of the global economy revealed inconsistencies in the development of information technology in Ukraine. According to objective indicators, it is analyzed how in Ukraine data are published and used for accountability, innovation, economic and social development. It is indicated that there are limiting factors for the formation, support and disclosure of data. This leads to restraint of the global movement of development in the country — when information and knowledge lead to the direct formation of new information and new knowledge. As the level of development and implementation of information and communication technologies in Ukraine still lags far behind the leading countries, this has a negative impact on the development of the economy, institutional structures and society.
 In connection with the identified problems, the need to develop a state strategy for the development of the information society and the use of information and IT are indicated.
 Keywords: globalization, IT-technologies, ICT-technologies, knowledge economy, information society, knowledge society.

КОНЦЕПТУАЛІЗАЦІЯ ПОНЯТТЯ «СВІТОВИЙ РИНОК ПРАЦІ»

The world labor market is a key and one of the most complex elements of the world economy. The labor market is a multifaceted object of research, and there are many definitions and interpretations of this concept in modern economic literature. The purpose of the article is to substantiate the theoretical and methodological foundations of the definition of the labor market and the systematization of theories regarding the interpretation of the definition "world labor market". In the article the author analyzed various theoretical and methodological approaches to the interpretation of the concept of "labor market" and "world labor market" in different eras of the development of economic science. It was determined that among the authors there is no unified approach to the interpretation of these concepts. There are also many definitions of the "labor market" in modern economic literature, which interpret it either as socio-economic relations, or as a system of relations, or as a mechanism. Based on the analysis of approaches to the study of the labor market within the national framework, the article defines the need for state intervention in the economic mechanism of the labor market in the views of scientists of various economic schools. Consideration of the labor market on a global scale is given in such theories as the theory of the world labor market, the theory of human capital, the theory of social capital, the new economic theory of migration, the theory of the segmented (dual) labor market, the theory of technological development, the theory of "attraction-repulsion", the theory of migration networks, the theory of migration systems and the theory of the new international economic order. On the basis of the conducted research, modern theories studying the functioning of the labor market at the micro-, macro- and global level are summarized and systematized. It is well-founded that most modern theories of the world labor market focus their attention on the process of international migration of labor resources, because in the second half of the 20th century it became an important part of the process of internationalization of international economic life. The commonality of views of scientists is manifested in the fact that the basis of the modern world labor market is formed by international labor flows.

ВПЛИВ ПРОЦЕСУ ЦИФРОВІЗАЦІЇ ЕКОНОМІКИ НА ТРАНСФОРМАЦІЮ ЗАЙНЯТОСТІ НАСЕЛЕННЯ

The article is devoted to the assessment of modern transformational changes in the sphere of employment under the influence of the spread of processes of digitization of the economy. Approaches to defining the content of the «digitalization» category in modern scientific literature are analyzed. Based on the systematization of existing scientific views, which was formed, the author's definition of the concept of "digitalization" is proposed. The main consequences of digitization on the world labor market are studied. It has been established that two main directions of change have formed in the global labor market in the context of the spread of the digital economy. First, it is the expansion of the use of information and communication technologies (ICT), as well as the involvement of an increasing number of human resources. In particular, this is the emergence of new professions in the IT sector, an increase in the number of vacancies, etc. Secondly, these are transformational changes in all other sectors of the economy due to the spread of ICT. These include: transformation of demand for human resources, changes in the structure of population employment, transformation of the nature of work, updating and modernization of qualification requirements for employees, etc. The indirect long-term consequences of the introduction of information and communication technologies for the labor market are determined. It is highlighted that an important trend of the modern labor market is the mastering of new specialties (professions) by employees who started their careers in other professional fields. It is emphasized that the expansion of economic sectors is ongoing due to adaptation to the new division of labor between humans, machines and algorithms. A conclusion was made regarding the further actualization of the implementation of support programs for career guidance and adult education. As a result, attention is focused on the priorities of the formation of current directions of the state policy of regulation of national labor markets with the diagnosis of their positioning in the global economic system. Keywords: digitalization, information and communication technologies, transformation, labor market, employment, competences.
