Relevance. Under the conditions of sanctions pressure, Russia needs to protect its economic interests and strengthen economic security. Therefore, the reorientation of foreign trade flows requires additional analysis. The purpose is to consider the direction of reorientation of Russian foreign trade flows in the context of anti‒ Russian sanctions.

Objectives: to determine the main agenda of world trade policy; to identify common priorities of world trade; to provide quantitative data on the volume of trade of countries, to analyze the specifics of trade agreements over a decade, to identify the main economic method of pressure on states; to provide data on Russia's trade with other countries; to consider the Russian export commodity structure; to identify the relationship between the share in the commodity structure goods and growth rates in stable and crisis periods; identify priority export Russian goods in modern conditions.

Methodology. The research methodology included the use of methods of analysis of quantitative and qualitative characteristics, correlation analysis, description, retrospective analysis, abstraction, generalization of the analyzed information.

Results. The reasons for the forced change in the direction of foreign trade flows are not only direct pressure on the Russian economy, but also global trends of deglobalization and regionalization. The current trading partners, despite the restrictions imposed, continue to trade with Russia. When finding potential allies, the focus is primarily on the reliability, security and strength of partners on the world stage. The Russian economy should not deviate from the current export structure, as the demand for energy resources continues to be high. And Russia retains the role of one of the guarantors of global energy security.

Conclusions. The issue of reorientation of Russian trade flows to alternative directions will remain one of the prevailing ones today. This is able to stabilize the economy and protect the economic interests of the country, to ensure the economic security of Russia. By diversifying and transforming trade flows by changing channels, the Russian economy will be able to discover new opportunities for the development of the world market.

Relevance. The deepening of integration processes within the EEU requires new approaches to managing economic security. The economic interdependence of the EEU countries no longer allows ignoring each other's problems. The unstable state of one economy negatively affects others and the whole Union. Financial security, as part of economic security, is determined by the directions of budget policy and the degree of budget execution.

The purpose of the study is to assess the financial security of the member countries of the Eurasian Economic Union, which is part of their economic security.

Objectives: to substantiate the need to assess the financial security of the EEU countries; analyze the execution of the consolidated budget of the EEU countries; assess the income and expenditure of the consolidated budget of the EEU countries; to identify problematic points in the implementation of the budgetary policy of the EEU countries.

Methodology. In the course of the research, such scientific methods as the empirical method, comparative analysis, vertical and horizontal analysis, induction and deduction methods, the method of a systematic approach, as well as other methods allowing for a comprehensive study were used. The materials of the study were data from the EAIS, the Federal Customs Service of Russia, as well as Rosstat of Russia.

Results. It is revealed that the EAEU countries have significant differences in budget policy. The analysis showed that the most financially weak countries are Armenia and Kyrgyzstan. The most balanced budget is in Belarus, and the most socially oriented is in Russia. Due to the unfavorable environment, Armenia spends a significant part of its expenditures on defense, which affects its development.

Conclusions. The EEU countries need to stabilize the immediate environment of the association, and the second stage, to form an optimal model structure of the revenue and expenditure parts of the budget, which will ensure the comprehensive financial security of the association. The unification of the budget policy will have a positive impact on the development of the association and its members. A single budget policy will create a territory in which fiscal payments will be unified, and the vectors for the development of the national economies of the Union will be coordinated.

The relevance of the study lies in the need to assess the capabilities of the BRICS and G7 international alliances in the context of increasing uncertainty and shifting centers of global leadership. The purpose of the study is to conduct a comprehensive comparative analysis of the BRICS and G7 countries' scientific, educational and digital capabilities to determine the prospects of the impact of the two international alliances on the development of the global economy.

Objectives: to study the indicators of the BRICS and G7 countries' scientific and educational potential; to study the components of the BRICS and G7 countries' digital potential; to substantiate the tools for expanding the scientific, educational and digital potential of the countries to strengthen the BRICS position in the global economy.

Methodology. The study is based on the use of methods of statistical information collection, comparative and economic analysis, systematization, and the graphical method.

Results. The analysis of indicators of the BRICS and G7 countries' scientific and educational potential shows, on the one hand, the advantage of the alliance of developed G7 countries and, on the other hand, the clear leadership potential of China, Russia and Brazil in various groups of indicators, which determines the probability of strengthening the positions of these countries and the entire BRICS alliance in the implementation of an active government policy in the field of education and science. The current gap between the BRICS alliance and the G7 countries in terms of digital capacity has narrowed during the pandemic, which creates the preconditions for developing countries to strengthen and achieve digital leadership in the world.

Conclusions. It is concluded that the strengthening of the BRICS countries' position on the world stage in terms of GDP over the past 10 years, as well as the presence of strong elements of scientific, educational and digital potential of individual countries of this alliance, and their strengthening during the pandemic have formed the prerequisites for the alliance to take leadership positions in the near future.

Relevance. Relations between states, due to either energy cooperation or confrontation, have entered the most acute phase since the beginning of the XXI century, since competition in this industry has become a leading element of the foreign policy of world powers. The purpose is to consider the stages of formation and development of the US energy strategy in the current conditions of world politics.

Objectives: to study the activities of us presidents in the context of the implementation of the country's energy interests; to study the legal framework of the US energy dominance in different countries and continents: highlight the significant tactical steps of the US government in the field of realizing the country's energy interests.

Methodology. The application of the method of document analysis made it possible to identify the strategic priorities of the policy of the US governments in their dynamics. The retrospective method of analyzing US policy made it possible to prove the idea of the purposeful participation of the US military departments in ensuring the national security of the country in the economic sector.

Relevance. The dynamics of the US energy strategy is analyzed on the example of the activities of its presidents from the end of the twentieth century to the present, which showed the transformation of the country's energy strategy from regional dominance, from the position of a net importer of energy resources to global dominance and transformation into a net exporter of energy resources through economic (development of shale deposits), military (expansion of NATO bases in the regions of oil and gas production) and diplomatic (summits, sanctions), etc.

Conclusions. Thus, the energy boom leads to a change in the geopolitical alignment of forces in the world, a decrease in the influence of OPEC countries on the formation of oil prices. The shale revolution is at the heart of a fundamental shift in the balance of power. All this makes it possible for the United States to reduce dependence on energy imports and expand freedom of action in Europe, the Middle East, and Central Asia.

Relevance. A modern enterprise as a complex socio-economic system exists today in the mode of constant changes to adequately respond to the challenges of the external environment. The development of production and personnel potential, the growth of profitability, and the improvement of competitiveness are the key objectives of the strategic development of the enterprise, which requires the optimization of its business processes, the reorganization of work with business partners, customers, and employees. Hence, there is a need for systematic business renewal through the introduction of new IT products.

The purpose is a theoretical and methodological justification of the need to integrate an ERP system into the current activities of a modern enterprise in the face of environmental challenges. The objectives: to consider the possibilities and mechanism of implementing an ERP system for the functioning and development of enterprises; to investigate the key elements of an ERP system for building a modern IT architecture of an enterprise in accordance with the principles of digitalization; to highlight the advantages and disadvantages of classical and flexible approaches in the ERP-system implementation project.

Methodology. Methods of statistical and comparative analysis, illustrative-graphical method, methods of generalization and logic based on a systematic approach are used in the work.

Results. In the course of the study, it was found that the problems of implementing an ERP system in the activities of a modern enterprise must be solved on the basis of a project approach involving the use of mechanisms of both the traditional Waterfall methodology and the Agile methodology. The main thing is to understand the potential opportunities and assess the expected risks when making decisions about the implementation of an IT product.

Conclusions. The introduction of an ERP system in an enterprise will improve and optimize business processes, focus on the competence abilities of line managers and employees. This is important in order to get the most out of the potential of an ERP system. The starting point is the process of developing and implementing standards of work with a clear description of the desired result. At the same time, the project team should pay considerable attention to changing the mentality and behavior of employees with ongoing changes in the motivation system and organizational culture.

Relevance. To date, most industrial enterprises focus on "green" and environmental standards. Driven by stricter regulations, pressure from investors and changing customer preferences, companies are forced to use technologies that are either completely harmless or the least harmful in comparison with traditional production methods. Such actions involve modifications in many directions, including changes in supply chains, production processes and business models. Companies are also rethinking how their products are developed, designed and used, looking for ways to meet performance and quality requirements while using fewer resources throughout the life cycle of everything they produce.

The purpose – the study of the management process of industrial enterprises based on the principles of lean manufacturing and ESG.

Objectives: compare the similarities and differences between the principles of lean manufacturing and ESG; assess the current state of their implementation at industrial enterprises; as well as consider the criteria for assigning ratings.

Methodology. In this research, theoretical (for example, analytical, descriptive, historical, etc.) and empirical (for example, comparative; forecasting and measurement) research methods are used.

Results. The relevance of such industrial enterprise management tools, which are based on the principles of lean manufacturing and ESG, is revealed – today they are a priority for the economy.

 Conclusions. If an enterprise wants to be highly competitive, it should adhere to the continuous development and improvement of equipment that could reduce emissions into the environment. Such an indicator can be achieved with the introduction of lean manufacturing and ESG tools at the enterprise. Thus, it becomes clear that concern for the environment is closely linked to the success of firms.

Relevance. Organic agriculture is a dynamically developing area of the global agro-industrial complex. The global problems of the climate plan and the depletion of natural resources throughout the planet dictate the need to revise the technologies used in food production. Excessive intensification of agricultural production due to mineralization and fertilization of soils, hormonal stimulation of the growth of animals and plants has led to a deterioration in the quality of water, soil, air and, in general, the health of the population. Therefore, the problem of reducing the anthropogenic impact on the environment is the main trend in the implementation of the principles of organic production.

Methodology. To analyze the works of domestic specialists who covered various aspects of restaurant services, state statistics and documentation, the authors relied on such methods as statistical and economic analysis, comparative assessment, causal analysis.

Results. Based on the study of the theoretical foundations of the gastronomic brand as a phenomenon of economic theory and taking into account the historical aspect, recommendations were formed on reforming the domestic restaurant product at the reception of the gastronomic culture of Russia.

Conclusions. The expert assessment of the economic efficiency of the gastronomic culture of Russia at the enterprises of the restaurant business reveals the problems of the domestic restaurant business. The presented reception routes are based on economic factors, the determining indicators of restaurant activity over the past 2 years are taken into account. According to the authors, the main factors of reforming the restaurant business in the post-crisis period are: the cultural and historical potential of the region, the conceptuality of institutions, target (consumer) audiences, the pricing policy of the enterprise, state support. The above justification will give an incentive to the development of the domestic restaurant product and will lead to an increase in the tourist attractiveness of the regions.

Relevance. Sightseeing services are included in the list of additional hotel services and today are provided in almost all hotels, regardless of their category and reputation. Today, the Russian economy is under the influence of Western restrictive measures and cardinal changes that are taking place in international relations and world politics. In the context of the transformation of the Russian economy, the demand for domestic recreational and educational tourism is increasing, which is an impetus for the development and strengthening of domestic tourism.

Relevance. The shadow economy exists in all countries of the world, however, the scale of employment in it indicates the degree of development of state institutions. The presence of shadow relations in the economy leads to a decrease in the revenues of the budget system at different levels of government, so it is necessary to create legal and economic conditions to reduce the share of the informal sector of the economy. Unfavorable socio-economic conditions for development, as a rule, are associated with the departure of employment to the informal sector of the economy, so it is necessary to identify the portrait characteristics of the population employed in it.

The purpose of this study is to develop tools to counter the employment of the population in the informal sector of the economy, based on an assessment of the level of employment by type of economic activity and portrait characteristics.

Objectives: to study the dynamics and structure of employment in the informal sector of the economy; identify factors that affect the level of shadow employment; develop tools to counteract shadow relations and determine the conditions for reducing the level of the informal sector of the economy.

Methodology. The methodological basis of the study is a comparative and correlation analysis, the study used methods for calculating absolute, relative indicators, graphical and tabular methods for displaying information. Results: an assessment of shadow relations in the economy was carried out; the dynamics of the level of employment in the informal sector of the economy is analyzed; the factors that have a significant impact on it are identified; approaches are proposed to reduce the threat of the growth of the scale of shadow relations.

Conclusions. Many countries are actively working to identify the causes and conditions for the existence of shadow relations, including Russia is actively working in this direction. As a result of the analysis, we have proposed a toolkit for reducing the scale of employment in the informal sector of the economy.

Relevance. Modern approaches to the development of industries in the Russian Federation are associated with the introduction of "green" innovations, since these technologies are currently one of the incentives for the formation of a new techno-economy.

The purpose is to substantiate modern approaches to the development of "green" innovations on the example of one of the sectors of the economy - construction.

Objectives: to analyze strategic alternatives for the construction sector of the Russian Federation; consider methods of greening the economy of construction production through the concept of "green" construction; to consider available solutions to strategic problems in the form of incremental innovation: an improved production method and the introduction of a model of the organizational and economic mechanism of management greening.

Methodology. In the course of the study, general scientific methods of logical and statistical analysis were used to determine the level of greening of the Russian Federation using various indicators, as well as qualitative and quantitative analysis to identify barriers to increasing activity in the field of "green" construction.

Results. The use of innovative technologies in construction costs only 0.8% more than the construction of a standard building, while achieving the basic levels of green building standards leads to an increase in its cost by about 2-3%. Innovative methods for improving construction are substantiated, and a method for determining the level of corporate and social responsibility, taking into account the environmental factor, is analyzed in detail.

Conclusions. The introduction of the concept of "green" construction and ecologization of the economy will set a new vector in the country's innovative activity, thereby contributing to the formation of the techno-economy of the Russian Federation. The legislative framework for promoting the concept of "green" construction in the Russian Federation has been established, but this is not enough to increase the number of projects in this area and their implementation. Using innovations in the construction industry, companies support the Russian innovation market and contribute to the future of not only the Russian environment, but also the Russian economy.

Relevance. The problems of sustainable and balanced socio-ecological and economic development of the regions of Russia, especially under the influence of exogenous shocks, it is necessary to pay special attention to the issues of assessing the differentiation of regions, which is based on the triune concept of sustainable development. The development of a scientific and methodological apparatus for studying and modeling socio-ecological and economic relationships for assessing the sustainable development of regions today seems relevant. In the article, the author highlights the role of modeling, which allows using complex indices to assess the differentiation of regions.

The purpose is to study and analyze the impact on the economy of exogenous shocks in the regional context, previously ‒ the COVID‒19 pandemic, and then ‒ the aggravation of geopolitical tensions.

Objectives: to analyze indicative indicators reflecting the balanced development of socio-economic and environmental relationships, and to assess the impact of exogenous shocks on their change; to develop 3D and 4D models reflecting the situation of the subjects of the Russian Federation with a separate reflection of the environmental burden on the regions.

Methodology. The methodological approach to the study of the situation of the regions of the Russian Federation using 3D and 4D modeling within the framework of the triune socio-ecological-economic concept using indicators included the use of economic-statistical and comparative analysis of the study of the dynamics of changes in indicators in the field of economic, social and environmental indicators in the context of the subjects of the Russian Federation; methods of classification, analysis and synthesis to identify differentiation of regions and the level of their imbalance.

Results. The scientific novelty of the research results consists in the development of a scientific and methodological apparatus for studying and modeling socio-ecological and economic relationships to assess the sustainable development of the region under the influence of macroeconomic shocks.

Conclusions. Based on the analysis of the situation of the regions in all three directions (economic, social and environmental) within the framework of the three-pronged concept of sustainable development, according to the three-sided prism, it can be stated that environmental issues in the regions are not given due attention and that priority is given to the short-term settlement of "emergency" situations.

Relevance. Recently, the Russian economy has been experiencing a number of serious problems due to the sanctioning influence of Western countries and the spread of the COVID-19 epidemic. Together, these factors complicate the dynamic development of the country's economic complex in almost all directions, hindering the creation and generation of knowledge-intensive solutions. In this regard, research that helps to identify the trends and nature of reproductive processes in the regions, as well as the regularities of formation of optimal growth parameters when passing through the post-crisis phase of the socio-economic system, is of particular relevance.

The purpose is a quantitative analysis of the quality of scientific and innovative transformations in the territories of the Russian Federation in the pre- and post-crisis periods of functioning of the economy.

Objectives: to identify trends in the development of innovation potential of the regions in the context of two time phases (before and after 2014) according to two indicators: the average per capita turnover of innovative products and specific costs of research work. At the same time, it is proposed to link the studied results to the euro exchange rate.

Methodology. The article considers the theoretical framework that reveals the peculiarities of the emergence and passage of crises by territories. The work is based on quantitative research methods (econometric and correlation and regression analysis). The data are systematized and synthesized thanks to freely available official statistics of the Federal State Statistics Service. Results. The maximum value of dynamics on the average per capita turnover of innovation products in the pre-crisis period was achieved in Moscow. In the post-crisis phase, the harshest drop in this indicator was also recorded for the Moscow region. In terms of specific R&D expenditures, none of the territories under consideration is characterized by positive transformations in 2014-20120 in relation to 2000-2013.

Conclusions. The calculations confirm the existence of a protracted crisis in the reproductive sphere of the analyzed territories. In addition, a strong correlation between the states of the research and innovation sectors is quantitatively substantiated. In this regard, in order to move the country to a fundamentally different level of technological development there is a need to strengthen the support of the scientific base, as well as continuous monitoring of the achieved results.

Relevance. The model of " triple helix" is more than 10 years a subject of theoretical judgment and development of applied techniques of her assessment and realization. However, philosophical and sociocultural aspects of her functioning, and also reflexive features among institutional agents remain on the periphery of the scientific analysis.

The purpose an objective of this research is the analysis of expert positions of representatives of scientific and pedagogical community of higher education institutions about separate aspects of functioning of model of " triple helix". Objectives: To reveal expert estimates of representatives of scientific and pedagogical community of higher education institutions about separate aspects of functioning of model of "triple helix".

Methodology. Research is executed on the basis of existing techniques of an assessment of innovative development of subjects of " triple helix " and empirical methods of poll.

Results. Among barriers and contradictions in "spiral" integration of institutes of the power, business and science / education on the basis of expert positions are defined: 1) for the power ‒ vertical isolation and low density of horizontal cross-contacts; 2) for business ‒ scientific researches are focused on short-term prospect, values of a private property; 3) for science / education ‒ scientific researches are focused on long-term prospect, the principles of universality of scientific knowledge, objects of intellectual property.

Conclusions. As a result of a situation of civilization and cultural antagonism of social codes "traditions and innovations" the functional mimicry of institutes can act, is actually realized in morphology of values traditionally Russian bureaucracies – a paternalism – corruption. Such imitations can be characterized as the institutional mutations arising in the conditions of an anomy when there is a deconstruction of traditional values, and imperatives of innovative development exists it is only declarative.

The relevance of this study is determined by a significant increase in the share of state and municipal services provided in electronic form, which entails the need to comprehend a new format of interaction between citizens and authorities. It should be recognized that today the basic principles of such integration require revision, since they do not meet the digital realities of Russian society. The use of digital technologies should be aimed not only at improving the quality of services provided to the population, digitalization should become a tool for solving a key task – improving the quality of life of the region's population, which, in the opinion of the authors, can be achieved through the gradual introduction of the principle of human-sizedness.

The purpose of this publication is to define the principles of interaction between citizens and authorities in when providing state and municipal services in the context of digitalization of public administration.

Objectives: determination of the declared goals of digitalization of state and municipal management based on the analysis of regulatory and legal documentation; assessment of expert reflection on the main trends of digitalization of state and municipal management.

Metodology. The research methodology is based on the analysis of regulatory and legal sources regulating the process of transferring state and municipal services to digital format, in order to determine the state vision of the prospects for digitalization of the management system, as well as focus group surveys that allowed experts to assess the vision of these processes.

The results of this study led to the conclusion that the main direction in the federal agenda of digital transformation is a comprehensive, proactive solution of living situations of citizens and business through the quality provision of state and municipal services in an electronic format.

Conclusions. Analysis leads to the conclusion that in the context of digitalization of public administration, the principle of human-sizedness should become the main principle of improving the quality of the provision of state and municipal services.

Relevance. In this study, based on empirical data, the features of meanings and the role of spaces, solidarity with space for the older during the COVID-19 pandemic are considered.

The purpose is to study how the urban space of St. Petersburg for the older changes during the pandemic, how difficulties, inequalities and barriers arise in the urban space for this category of citizens, how the meanings of the spaces familiar to it change.

Objectives. The object of the study is older people — residents of a large metropolis, St. Petersburg. The subject of the study: assessment of the urban environment and features of solidarity with the space of the older. The objectives of the study are to study the peculiarities of transformations of urban spaces in the lives of older people during the COVID-19 pandemic and the peculiarities of the older themselves understanding such transformations.

Methodology. The research methods are: interviews-conversations with older people. The informants of the study are older people of different ages, from 65 to 86 years old, living in the old and new districts of St. Petersburg. Results. Based on interviews with older residents of cities, we were able to identify and identify key features in the framework of the interaction of older people with urban spaces. Among the main problems that older people noted in interviews is the loss of the instrumental capabilities of the city itself, namely the availability of pharmacies and shops, as well as the emergence of various fears associated with the possibility of contracting a new coronavirus infection when interacting with people during visits to shops and other public places.

Conclusions. The older age in a limited and closed urban space becomes a kind of frame that sets special conditions for the perception of urban spaces as maximally closed and unfriendly for the older. The total transformation of the meanings of familiar spaces as the attachment of older people to urban spaces is becoming more pronounced and obvious, and the key in this case is that new solidarity and new practices are emerging within the most narrowed and most accessible spaces.

Relevance. Education in the modern world is becoming one of the spheres of public life where interreligious Orthodox-Muslim dialogue is manifested, contributing to the integration of society. The differences and similarities in the systems of Muslim and Orthodox education at all its stages, starting from preschool, and their relationship to science allow us to assess the possibilities of such integration.

The purpose is to conduct a comparative analysis of the features of Muslim and Orthodox education in Russia.

Objectives: to describe the existing views of Orthodoxy and Islam on education and science in general; to consider secular and religious education from the point of view of the Orthodox and Muslim worldview; to assess the degree of implementation of the religious component in the systems of Orthodox and Muslim education; to determine the similarities and differences of Muslim and Orthodox education in the territory of the Russian Federation.

Methodology. The study was conducted on the basis of a systematic approach within the framework of structural functionalism using universal scientific methods such as analysis, comparison, generalization.

Results. In the course of studying the Orthodox and Muslim education systems, a comparative analysis of various stages of the educational process, their religious characteristics and the degree of introduction of the religious component into education was carried out.

Conclusions. The paper identified significant similarities between the Muslim and Orthodox religious worldviews regarding education, expressed in the recognition by both religions of the universally recognized values of love for nature, the state and other people. At the same time, in relation to science, there are differences between these concepts: Orthodoxy, despite its respectful attitude, sees science as a potential danger to humans; Islam treats science as the highest good.

Relevance. Religion permeates all spheres of human life: politics, economics, education, culture, medicine. There is no sphere of influence where religion would not leave its mark. In this regard, the consideration of the social doctrines of various prevailing confessions in the social life of a person is an urgent topic. Religion cares about the spiritual and physical well-being of a person, therefore, in the modern realities of the development of biomedical technologies, the moral aspect of human activity in the field of bioethics causes discussions in relation to such manipulations with the human body as IVF, surrogacy, abortion and transplantation. This leads to the need to consider these medical interventions from the point of view of the prevailing confessions in Russia.

The purpose is to conduct a comparative analysis of the social concepts of Islam and Orthodoxy concerning bioethics issues.

Objectives. To examine the existing approaches of Orthodoxy and Islam to bioethics; to identify the specifics of the doctrines of Islam and Orthodoxy in matters of surrogacy, IVF, abortion and transplantation; to compare the religious views of these denominations with regard to bioethics.

Methodology. The study was conducted on the basis of a systematic approach within the framework of structural functionalism using universal scientific methods such as analysis, synthesis and generalization. Results. In the course of studying the doctrines of Islam and Orthodoxy in the field of bioethics, a comparative analysis of views on surrogacy, IVF, abortion and transplantation was carried out; similarities and differences of views of Orthodoxy and Islam on bioethics issues were revealed.

Conclusions. The work identified similarities between Orthodox concepts and Muslim doctrines in relation to abortion, IVF, surrogacy and transplantation, differences are observed in relation to traditions.

Relevance. Due to the departure from religious traditions that once mediated the content and interpretation of religious and mystical experience, in the situation of postmodern new religious and mystical quests, eclectic, and sometimes surrogate mystical psychologism, arises.

The purpose is carry out an understanding of the limits of the reductionist approach of the psychology of religion to religious and mystical experience.

Objectives: comprehend the subject field of the psychology of religious and mystical experience; reveal the dramatic relationship between reductionist and non-reductionist approaches to the content of mystical experience; substantiate the need for interdisciplinary interaction as a means of avoiding the absolutization of psychological reductionism and anti-reductionism in understanding the content of religious and mystical experience.

Methodology. The study uses methods of synthesis and analysis, which allow revealing the specifics of the content-based approach of the psychology of religion to religious mysticism. The comparison method made it possible to establish the differences between various research programs within the latter, which, to varying degrees of intensity, either absolutized or limited the use of reduction.

Results. An approach to religious mysticism from the position of a psychologist as an external observer, i.e. without penetration into its semantic fabric, characteristic of a particular religion, does not lead to an essential understanding of mystical experience and the discretion of its transpersonal ontology.

Conclusions. In the coordinates of a purely psychological approach, far from religious dogmatic subtleties and philosophical generalizations, there is a danger of reduction, which does not take into account the gradation of mystical experiences into genuine and inauthentic.

Relevance. The merging of the economic interests of the state and private structures, supported by the concentration and centralization of power-property in the context of the global structural crisis, indicates the transformation of the existing global socio-economic conjuncture, in particular the transformation of subjects of socioeconomic relations into objects. Thus, there is a need to study the ongoing transformation with the subsequent identification of the emerging structure of class society, which makes is possible to determine a promising direction of research in the field of socio-economic relations developing in the global liberal socio-economic system, which is in the terminal stage of crisis.

The purpose of the study is to identify trends in the transformation of the global system of socio-economic relations, its elements (subjects and objects of relations), as well as the socio-economic (class) relations themselves, formalization of the presented transformation and ensuring its representativeness.

Objectives. This goal is achieved by solving the following tasks: identifying the integration of the institution of the state with transnational capital, representing the emerging structure of socio-economic subject-object relations, as well as the system of subject-object relations of a new global class society.

Methodology. The solution of these tasks is carried out by applying general scientific research methods within the framework of logical analysis and synthase. Formulated and applied the author’s method, presented in the text in the form of an algorithm that describes the logic of the process of transformation of subjects of socio-economic relations, represented by a flowchart.

Results. The result of the research is the modeling of the emerging structure of socio-economic subject-object relations.

Conclusions. The conducted research is applicable for the structural analysis of global socio-economic processes, as well as the formation of interdisciplinary theoretical models that reveal the destructive processes taking place in the modern market world system, which is on the verge of transformation.

Relevance. Obviously, there is a direct relationship between the implementation of the company's sustainable development goals, its movement in ESG directions and strategic business development. In general, as practice has shown, the first attempts at ESG transformation made in Russia revealed a number of shortcomings in the formulation of the ESG direction in companies, among the main ones noted: weak methodological elaboration, lack of understanding of problems, lack of elaboration of individual areas and fragmented data provision. In the current conditions, it is difficult to talk about the environmental E-component of ESG as the flagship of the sustainable development of companies, as it was before. In this connection, many experts are now talking about the upcoming ESG transformation towards ESG-S. It became possible to assess the level of work of companies in this area based on the analysis of information provided on the companies' website, disclosure of non-financial reports on the RSPP site, as well as sociological studies of the BEAC and HSE, which formed the information base of this consolidated study.

The purpose of this study is to analyze the main directions of companies' work in the context of the Scomponent of ESG as a basis for strategic business development in Russia.

The objectives are to analyze the social aspects of the activities of most large Russian companies in the main areas: staff turnover, gender equality and interaction with stakeholders, as well as consideration of their assessment issues and partner requirements.

Methodology. The following research methods were used: inductive/deductive, normative-analytical, system method and generalization method. Results. The results obtained will be the basis for a systematic assessment of the level of ESG-S results achieved by business at the present stage, as well as a vector of further business movement towards the national specifics of ESG.

Conclusions. As a result of the conducted research, conclusions were obtained about the achieved level of ESG-S, and on their basis, further steps towards ESG transformation in today's conditions were outlined.
