TRENDS OF THE WORLD AND NATIONAL ECONOMY

Abstract

Relevance. Ensuring food security is an important component of national security. In this context, the problem of ensuring food security of unrecognized and partially recognized states is of particular interest, which is primarily due to the latter's limited capabilities in building an independent foreign economic and foreign trade policy. In particular, this problem manifests itself in conditions of large-scale military operations with the participation of unrecognized or partially recognized states. The Republic of Artsakh, being an unrecognized state, as a result of the war with Azerbaijan in September-November 2020, lost a significant part of its agricultural potential, which creates more than tangible risks to food security.
The purpose of the study is to identify food security problems of unrecognized and partially recognized states on the example of the Republic of Artsakh.
Objectives: to analyze the main approaches to the definition of the concept of "food security"; to establish basic criteria for assessing the level of "food security"; to determine the level of food security of the Republic of Artsakh before the large-scale war in autumn 2020 by analyzing the main economic and trade indicators; to assess the level of influence of the war on ensuring the food security of the Artsakh Republic, to give some necessary recommendations.
Methodology. The research methodology is based on an integrated approach, including the analysis of scientific and regulatory literature, the study of the international practice of ensuring food security and the identification of the degree of influence of geopolitical processes on it. Due to the interdisciplinary nature of the research, we use the categorical apparatus of both economic and political sciences. The study actively uses the structural and functional method.
Results. The results obtained can contribute not only to a comprehensive understanding of food security problems in the Republic of Artsakh, but also be used by unrecognized and partially recognized states in the process of implementing their food policy.
Conclusions. The main results of the study can be applied in the formation or improvement of the national security doctrine of these states. The proposed recommendations are of practical importance and can be used by government agencies in the development of individual target programs.

Abstract

Relevance. In the context of the transformation of the system of risks and threats to national economic security, there is a need for a more complete and adequate assessment of them. One of the ways to solve this problem is to analyze not only quantitative and qualitative, but also structural changes in macroeconomic indicators.
Purpose. Analyze changes in the structure of macroeconomic indicators of the Russian Federation in the context of ensuring sustainable development and achieving national economic security; to give these changes a meaningful interpretation.
Objectives: Identify the interdependence between the values and structure of macroeconomic indicators and the level of national economic security; Based on the analysis of Russian official statistical data, using a structureoriented approach, describe the trends in economic development; To propose recommendations for improving the state economic policy, focused on the restructuring of the Russian economy, considering the requirements of ensuring national economic security.
Methods. The study used the methods of monographic and comparative analysis, standard methods of processing and visualization of statistical data, methods of coefficient and structural analysis, institutional and retrospective analysis.
Results. The study, based on the analysis of literary sources, empirical and statistical data, revealed the links between the values and structure of macroeconomic indicators and the level of ensuring national economic security. It was found that structural aspects are not properly considered in the system of indicators of national economic security. based on the analysis of Russian official statistical data on the macroeconomic dynamics of recent decades, using a structure-oriented approach, trends in economic development and transformation of the structure of the Russian economy were identified and described. For this, an approach was used to structure the types of economic activities into six sectors. The revealed facts and patterns are recommended to be considered in the state economic policy.
Conclusions. The study has shown that the transformational transition of the Russian economic system from one stage of development to another has a long and rather inertial character. This requires the organization of systematic monitoring to timely make adjustments to the current state economic policy. A promising task for further research is the search for new economic policy tools that will accelerate the pace of structural transformation, taking into account the relationships identified and described in the article.

ECONOMICS AND ORGANIZATION OF ENTERPRISES, INDUSTRIES, COMPLEXES

121-131 107
Abstract

Relevance. The relevance of the topic is determined by the fact that the ongoing changes in society and the economy associated with the onset of the crisis caused by the impact of COVID-19 on industries and industrial enterprises, as well as changes in the consumption of energy resources, the demand for workers, optimization of financial flows and others, force enterprises to work in a different mode.
The purpose of the article is substantiated the need to identify the reasons for restructuring, firstly, on the external (climatic, resource, informational, influence of global trends), and secondly, on domestic markets (technical and technological, personal, the introduction of digitalization, the impact COVID-19 for personnel training), which force enterprises to turn to the state for help and, accordingly, restructure individual services.
Objectives: conducting research in the Voronezh region based on the analysis of the food doctrine; confirming the conclusions drawn on statistical data; determining the development strategy of the region in the concept of solving the problems of the labor market, sales, finance, forcing enterprises to optimize their activities in the market, to be competitive.
Methodology. The system of restructuring (on the example of the agricultural holding "Molvest") is considered, which, thanks to a complex of material incentives for labor and increasing demands on the professional level of personnel and discipline, creates conditions for the emergence of competition for jobs and the formation on this basis of a civilized market of qualified labor.
Results. Proposals are given at the level of the state and private enterprises to bring them to new levels. So, at the state level and at the level of business enterprises, we believe that it is necessary to pay attention to the impact of job cuts on the new situation on the labor market, the changed structure of the regional economy. Unprotected groups of the population, as a result of cuts associated with new development programs, receive assistance within the framework of social programs of the Russian Federation and the region (subsidies, pensions, subsidies to families, childcare benefits, etc.), personnel of enterprises compete in the local market labor.
Conclusion. It is highlighted that at the state level it is necessary to approve a program on specific aspects of social insecurity or manifestations of relatively new problems (migration of the working-age population, which in the Voronezh region increases by 0.2% annually), to develop a mechanism for its implementation, protecting domestic workers, and the preparation of cities for complex adaptation needs to be considered.

SOCIO-ECONOMIC PROBLEMS OF MODERN SOCIETY

164-175 133
Abstract

Relevance. In recent years, the problem of raising the standard of living of servicemen, as an important driving factor in the development of their human potential, has been of great interest to sociologists. At the same time, among the many scientific works devoted to the “standard of living”, there is currently no generally accepted and shared understanding of this category in sociological thought. In this regard, there is an objective need to clarify the category of "standard of living" and assess the current state of the standard of living of Russian servicemen, as a significant factor in the development of human potential.
The purpose – as a result of the analysis of the author's empirical research, to determine the impact of the standard of living on the human potential of modern Russian military personnel.
Objectives: to reveal the content of the sociological phenomenon “standard of living”; to study the factors influencing its development, indicators characterizing this development, their statics and changes; develop practical recommendations aimed at optimizing the process of human development of Russian servicemen as a result of improving their living standards.
Methodology. The theoretical and methodological basis of the study was the methods and approaches presented in the work of scientists in the field of living standards research. In the course of scientific research, various empirical and theoretical methods were applied.
Results. Our assumption that the development of the human potential of Russian servicemen depends on their standard of living turned out to be correct. However, there are factors that significantly inhibit this process. These include: the financial situation of servicemen, which does not correspond to the volume of work they perform; living and working conditions; insufficient knowledge and skills in using modern means of information and telecommunication systems.
Conclusion. In modern conditions, there is a decrease in the standard of living of servicemen and their family members, which leads to the emergence of destructive practices in the system of consumption of servicemen and slows down the processes of reproduction of professionally significant abilities of servicemen as a result of an increase in their standard of living.

Abstract

Relevance. Rapid changes in all spheres of social life, taking place against the background of technological innovations, objectively lead to the formation of new cultural practices, and as a result of new threats and challenges that the modern world faces. A new focus of problems is being built in front of humanitarian knowledge, which it must solve in the first place. This applies, first of all, to socialization practices in relation to the younger generation.
The purpose – on the basis of the analysis of socialization strategies of young people, to determine the theoretical and practical prospects of the concept of "We", which can be used in everyday practices of teaching and upbringing in educational institutions of modern Russia.
Objectives: to present a general theorization of the concept of "We" in relation to the everyday practices of modern Russian youth and, based on empirical data, to determine its significance and prospects in conducting sociological research.
Methodology. The author's reflection is based on the concepts and approaches of the socio-cultural paradigms of Russian and foreign researchers in the field of youth sociology, training and education. The use of empirical methods of analysis, comparison and generalization made it possible to solve the set tasks.
Results. Russian youth are not attracted by empty and fleeting glory: half would dream of becoming famous as an authoritative expert in any professional field, 40% as big businessmen. The spheres of grassroots culture, which guarantee quick fame among the general population (show business, secular "get-together", the Internet), are unattractive. The dominant feature, according to younger age cohorts, is the attitude towards recognition of one's own achievements and success. Professional self-realization in the group of values is in third position. Every seventh person is interested in fame and fame. For older youth, aged 22 to 30, for self-realization in life, this value series is less significant. Collectivism, as a significant life value, is practically absent in the judgments of young Russians. At the same time, friendship and professional self-realization retain their social significance.
Conclusion. The welfare state is a system that is built on human development. Therefore, the overall result of upbringing and education, above all, of the younger generation of modern Russia, depends on which socialization projection of the future we choose.

PHILOSOPHICAL STUDY OF NATURE, SOCIETY AND HUMAN

220-231 325
Abstract

Relevance. Civilizational transit in the middle of the 21st century is associated with the network interference of several global transitions at once: demographic, informational, environmental, technological, financial and economic, socio-political, cultural, anthropological, which is not comparable in scale with any previous era of changes and requires a fundamental philosophical and methodological analysis of the reasons and prospects for overcoming the protracted phase of social development, which we called the Great Anthropological Transition. Historical analogs can serve in the distant horizon - the era of the beginning of the decline of post-Caesarian Rome, and in the coming times - the Great Depression of the 30s of the last century, which also captured the entire ecumene of its time.
The purpose of the research is to study the nature and prospects of the Great Anthropological Transition, which has entered the global civilization in recent years.
Objectives: conceptualization of the concept of the Great Anthropological Transition, analysis of its historical and information-network bases and risks; identification of scenarios for the passage of the Great Anthropological Transition; identification of the features of the interaction of state hierarchies and social networks in the digital era;
The research methodology includes: interdisciplinary system-synergetic approach, post-non-classical methodology and philosophical reflection, the method of historical echo and umwelt analysis, risk analysis, actornetwork approach of B. Latour.

Digitalization influences changes in the field of public management, changes qualitatively and quantitatively the relationship of participants in public management creates new development opportunities for the economy and society. At the same time, the depth and dynamics of recent developments in the field of public management in Russia require a rethinking of approaches to assessing its effectiveness.
The purpose is the development of a balanced model for assessing the effectiveness of public authorities digitalization.
Objectives: to consider existing models and methodological approaches to assessing the effectiveness of digitalization of public management; to study a balanced system of indicators for the possibility of application in the public sector; determine the projections of the modified balanced scorecard to assess the effectiveness of digitalization of public management entities.
Methodology. The study is based on the methodology of integrating the balanced scorecard and the concept of "E-government". The methods of comparative, organizational and managerial analysis were also used, which were adequate to the pursued goal and the objectives of the study that structured it.
Results. Balanced model for assessing the effectiveness of digitalization of public management entities is proposed, based on the classical BSC system, characterized by modified projections, applicable to public authorities, which allows assessing the digitalization of the latter at various levels, taking into account their dynamic development.
Conclusions. Implementing a balanced scorecard can be difficult in the public sector, as it is primarily a topdown management tool that discourages bottom-up initiatives. Therefore, a thorough understanding of the stakeholders and digitalization requirements is essential to determine the ultimate goals of the assessment. In accordance with certain assessment objectives, the proposed system should be filled with the necessary and sufficient number of indicators, the obtained values of which will serve as the basis for developing recommendations for improving certain aspects of digital transformations of the public authority and increasing the efficiency of digitalization of public management as a whole.
