Published: December 2020

Abolition of the LH-induced ERK1/2 pathway leads to dramatic changes in gene expression in granulosa cells, subsequently abrogating ovulation. Here we explored whether sustained ERK1/2 signaling beyond immediate-early hours of the LH surge is important for ovulation in mice. First, we examined the effect of inhibition of ERK1/2 activity at 4 h after hCG stimulation on ovulation in superovulated immature mice. Treatment with the ERK1/2 pathway inhibitor PD0325901 at 4 h post-hCG disrupted follicular rupture without altering cumulus expansion, oocyte meiotic maturation and luteinization. Profiling the expression pattern of genes of the RSK family of ERK1/2 signal mediators revealed that RSK3, but not other isoforms, was induced by hCG treatment. Further, RSK3-knockout mice were sub-fertile with reduced ovulation rate and smaller litter size compared to WT mice. Given that PD0325901 inhibits all mediators of ERK1/2 signaling, we chose to evaluate the gene expression underlying deficient follicular rupture in ERK1/2 inhibited mice. We found that inhibition of ERK1/2 signaling at 4 h post-hCG resulted in an imbalance in the expression of genes involved in extracellular matrix degradation and leukocyte infiltration necessary for follicular rupture. In conclusion, our data demonstrate that sustained ERK1/2 signaling during ovulation is not required for cumulus expansion, oocyte meiotic maturation and luteinization, but is required for follicular rupture.

Dostoevsky at the Turn of the 21st Century: Antinomies of Interpretation
Authors: Borisova Valentina , Schaulov Sergey
Published: December 2020

The aim of the proposed article is to identify the key trends and contradictions in the study and interpretation of Dostoevsky’s work at the turn of the 21st century. Dostoevsky studies are one of the most advanced and active branches of Russian literary studies, which is confirmed by a large number of regular scientific conferences, as well as by a significant number of fundamental monographs. The search for a new interpretive basis in the Christian tradition, which has revealed a number of axiological and methodological contradictions, including the inevitable choice between literary and philosophical/theological discourses, is seen as the main methodological breakthrough in contemporary Russian literary studies (and simultaneously a challenge). Three aspects of the question of the Christian basis of Dostoevsky’s work are examined: along with “dogmatic ranting” (as defined by I. A. Esaulov), reading the writer’s works in the context of the legacy of religious philosophy of the Silver Age remains relevant. We recognize the analysis and interpretation of Dostoevsky’s texts in the spirit of historical poetics as the most productive, provided that the postulate about the Christian nature of the Russian classical tradition is accepted. The methodological search of Dostoevsky’s researchers, typical for the turn of the 21st century, has found its expression in a multitude of “research subjects”: this polemic centers on the definitions of “realism in the highest sense”/“Christian realism” and a dispute around The Idiot and the image of Prince Myshkin, caused by the receptive conflict of interpreters. In addition, the article underscores the problem of the use of Bakhtin’s legacy in Dostoevsky studies: in our opinion, the key notions of his concept in literary studies “function” either in an adjusted form, or as scientific metaphors, or as an “appeal to authority”. Therefore, it seems more productive to include Bakhtin’s heritage in Dostoevsky studies as an essential fact in the history of perception of his work, rather than as a methodological basis for studying the text. It is in this aspect that the success of Russian literature in recent years is most obvious, however, the gap between scientific excellence and mass perception of Dostoevsky is also apparent. The final conclusion states that the contradictions of interpretations generated by transcending the “spectrum of adequacy” when reading a classical text have not been overcome. Dostoevsky’s work still causes controversy and methodological arguments. This means that the history of his perception remains an ongoing, living narrative. Dostoevsky still remains a subject of contemporary culture, rather than its object.
The Marriage Allegation No. 17: Text and Fate (Dostoevsky’s Wedding in Kuznetsk on February 6, 1857)
Authors: Tikhomirov Boris
Published: December 2020

The article introduces for the first time the authentic text of the marriage allegation, compiled by the clergy of the Holy Mother of God-Odigitrievsky Church in the city of Kuznetsk in preparation for the wedding of Fedor Mikhailovich Dostoevsky and Maria Dmitrievna Isaeva on February 6, 1857. The original of this document has not been preserved, as it probably burned down during a fire that occurred in the Kuznetsk Church in December 1919. In the biographical literature, the text of the marriage allegation, which dates back to a handwritten copy made around 1916 by the priest of the Odigitrievsky Church, Nikolai Rudichev, is preserved and now stored in the Memorial House of F. M. Dostoevsky in Semey (Semipalatinsk until 2007). In 1916, it was published with a number of inaccuracies by the priest and local historian B. G. Gerasimov in the now-missing publication “Siberian chronicle.” In this article, the marriage search is reproduced from a photocopy of the lost original, which was made in 1910 and is now stored in the Literary and Memorial Museum of F. M. Dostoevsky in St. Petersburg. The signature autograph of the writer under the text of the marriage allegation makes it an official personal document, which warrants the inclusion of the marriage allegation in the main body of the Academic Complete Works of the writer, in the “Official letters and business papers” section. A significant part of the article contains the polemic with the hypothesis of Siberian local historians M. M. Kushnikova and V. V. Togulev, who believe that the said marriage allegation was removed from the Church archives and destroyed before the fire of 1919. They believe that it was done in order to hide the forgery contained in its text, which makes Dostoevsky’s first marriage illegitimate. While agreeing that the document really did contain forgery, the author of the article relies on the then-contemporary legislation in proving that the conclusion about the illegality of the writer’s marriage is a great exaggeration, and the hypothesis about the seizure and destruction of the marriage allegation has no serious grounds.

Authors:   Vasyl’ Stus Donetsk National University, Vinnytsia, Ukraine, Derkach Е.М.
Published: December 2020

The article highlights the current problems of the transport system of Ukraine, as well as identifies areas for the development of relevant legislation. It is noted that current geopolitical conflicts, the challenges of world trade, the pandemic caused by COVID-19, have affected global supply chains, led to the transformation from traditional approaches for doing business to digital ones. It is highlighted that Ukraine as a logistics hub between the Europe and Asia faces the global economics challenges and needs to realize comprehensively its export and transit potential. However, according to the International Trade Administration data, only 25-30 % of the country's transit potential is currently used. In terms of the Association Agreement between the European Union and its Member States, of the one part, and Ukraine, of the other part, Ukraine's transport system should ensure synergy of all modes. The current trends for smart-port infrastructure development, uberization in the transport industry, new mode of logistics management – 4th generation logistics (4PL) are being discussed. The author emphasizes that the development of domestic legislation on public-private partnership is the priority task concerning transport industry. In addition, the author states that the priority development areas’ model should be applied for developing ports and logistics hubs in Ukraine providing non-fiscal incentives. The researcher concludes that a balanced legal policy is needed, taking into account the interests of the state, private investors, the environment and society. In addition, the appropriate legal basis should be provided for the sustainable development of Ukraine's transport system. It is concluded that the priority tasks are as follows: The proposed steps are as follows: adopting the specific Laws of Ukraine “On Railway Transport”; “On Multimodal Transport”, “On Inland Waterway Transport”, forming an independent regulatory body for natural monopolies in the field of transport, providing fair economic competition in the field of rail freight transportation.

The article explores the possible ways of managing ecological security of the city based on the use of economic methods and legal tools. It was determined that the urbanization has a negative impact on the environment. Therefore, it is necessary to make decisions on managing ecological security of the city. The management of city’s ecological security includes both functional (planning, organization, financing, coordination, control) and situational (decision-making to stabilize the environment in emergency and crisis situations) aspects. In this case, the corresponding economic methods and legal tools are used. They aim at motivating or forcing the economic entities to plan and finance environmental protection measures in the city. To do this, the methods of economic regulation (taxation, lending, subsidizing, provision of subsidies and benefits, imposition of fines) are used. The economic methods are included in the economic mechanism for managing the ecological security of the city. This mechanism is connected with the legal mechanism for regulating environmental protection activities in the city. The legal mechanism includes legal tools (legislative acts, industry regulations, decisions and orders made by local authorities) for managing environmental security. The choice of economic methods and legal tools depends much on internal and external factors, principles of distribution of responsibility for caused environmental damage, the need to coordinate the interests of the process actors with the management of ecological security of the city. To promote environmental safety in the city the environmental projects, environmental cooperation, and environmental entrepreneurship are of great importance. Their implementation and development are carried out using the economic methods and legal tools. At the same time, both the environmental assessment of projects and the assessment of social consequences of the decisions are made. Besides, the changes in the economic and legal regulation of economically safe development of the city also should be justified on economic grounds. The most important condition for this is the coherence of economic methods and legal tools. This coherence is possible due to the availability of information support, the development of which should become the subject of further research.
THE PRACTICE OF PROVIDING TEMPORARY HOUSING INTERNALLY DISPLACED CITIZENS IN POST-CONFLICT TERRITORIES
Authors:   State Organization “V. Mamutov Institute of Economic and Legal Research of NAS of Ukraine”, Kyiv, Ukraine, Volkova A.O.
Published: December 2020

The article analyzes the current practice of providing temporary housing to internally displaced persons in post-conflict areas. It is noted that during the six years of internal displacement at the state level, a number of regulations have been developed that have provided internally displaced persons with the opportunity to begin the process of integration into host communities. At the same time, the full integration of internally displaced persons is slowing down due to the impossibility of exercising the right to housing guaranteed by the Constitution of Ukraine. It is emphasized that the uncertainty of further housing prospects still remains one of the most pressing problems for the majority of internally displaced persons, the comprehensive solution of which requires effective cooperation between public authorities and local governments. It is noted that to date, at the state level, official information on the housing needs of internally displaced persons and the number of internally displaced persons who have been provided with housing with the support of the state or local governments is still lacking. It is noted that the state housing policy, in terms of providing internally displaced persons with housing, should be based on long-term, systematic and consistent solutions, through the introduction of targeted housing programs for internally displaced persons at both state and local levels. For those internally displaced persons who do not have the opportunity to purchase housing, effective and transparent mechanisms for providing temporary housing should be in place at the state level. Emphasis is placed on the fact that until 2017, due to the lack of sources to finance the formation of housing funds for temporary residence, as well as the lack of vacant and, most importantly, habitable housing, the above funds at the local level were practically not formed, but where they were created – were not replenished. Attention is drawn to the feasibility of assessing communal property and potential objects that can be purchased, reconstructed for the accommodation of internally displaced persons. In order to ensure the realization of the right to temporary housing for displaced professionals from among internally displaced persons, it is proposed to provide local governments with the opportunity to determine the percentage of housing that can be provided to displaced professionals in proportion to the local budget.

The article presents a revised draft Concept of economic development of Donetsk and Luhansk regions, on the territory of which a system of stimulating the intensification of economic processes will be introduced, which can be further implemented in other regions of Ukraine. The Concept of economic development of Donetsk and Luhansk regions was proposed for discussion in October 2020 by the Ministry of Temporarily Occupied Territories together with interested central and local executive bodies with the participation of local governments. The Concept envisages the creation of three types of priority development territories (territories of communities adjacent to the demarcation line, throughout Donetsk and Luhansk regions, on the territory of separate industrial and recreational clusters, including innovation and industrial parks, with a special regime of innovation and investment activities). Five groups of measures for the implementation of the Concept of economic development of Donetsk and Luhansk regions have been identified: improvement of regulatory policy and introduction of authentic institutional and financial instruments; industrialization of the real sector of the economy and its innovative development; development of critical infrastructure and logistics; formation of a balanced regional labor market; formation of information and communication space of Luhansk and Donetsk regions. Based on the results of the Concept implementation, it is planned to develop an appropriate Strategy and action plan. This set of regulations will allow to form a territory of priority development with a new structure of the economy and to modernize industrial production on an innovative basis, increase the share of innovative enterprises in the real sector, increase exports and the share of highly processed products, overcome logistical constraints and increase a transit region potential, increase revenues to the local budgets of the amalgamated territorial communities of Donetsk and Luhansk regions, create jobs, increase incomes, leave the youth of the regions and involve them in solving problems of economic development of Donetsk and Luhansk regions.

OBJECTIVES:

Asymptomatic transmission of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) in health care settings is not well understood. In this study, we aimed to determine the prevalence of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) immunoglobulin G (IgG) antibodies in health care and hospital workers (HCHWs) and assess how antibody levels change over time.

METHODS:

Cross-sectional study of employed HCHWs at a freestanding, urban pediatric tertiary care hospital. Employed HCHWs ≥18 years old who were asymptomatic and worked in clinical hospital locations were eligible to participate. Participants completed blood draws and surveys at baseline (between May 4, 2020, and June 2, 2020) and 2 months later (between July 6, 2020, and August 7, 2020). Surveys collected demographic information, SARS-CoV-2 exposures, and previous COVID-19 diagnosis.

RESULTS:

In total, 530 participants enrolled in and completed baseline study activities. The median age was 37 years (range 19–67 years); 86% identified as female, and 80% identified as white. Two months later, 481 (91%) HCHWs completed another survey and blood draw. Four of 5 (0.9%) seropositive subjects at baseline remained seropositive at 2 months, although 3 had decreasing IgG indices. Five (1.0%) seropositive individuals, including 4 who were previously seropositive and 1 newly seropositive, were detected 2 months later. History of positive SARS-CoV-2 polymerase chain reaction testing results (P < .001) and history of COVID-19 exposure (P < .001) were associated with presence of SARS-CoV-2 antibodies.

CONCLUSIONS:

SARS-CoV-2 antibodies were detected in 1% of HCHWs in an urban pediatric hospital in a city with moderate SARS-CoV-2 prevalence. Participants with a known previous COVID-19 diagnosis showed a decline or loss of IgG antibodies over 2 months. These results have implications for identifying those with previous exposure and for ongoing public health recommendations for ensuring workplace safety.

The plain of Boumaiza is located in the north east of Algeria in the wilaya of Skikda. This region is characterized by agricultural activity and is subject to a mediterranean climate. This agricultural development is liable to contaminate the groundwater heavily loaded by the local population for its drinking water needs. In order to highlight the state of vulnerability to groundwater pollution of the captive aquifer, which is composed of sands and gravels and pebbles, it is based on a marly substratum, GIS-based DRASTIC Index method has been applied in the aquifer of Boumaiza Plain. This method is presented in the form of numerical rating systems based on consideration of the different factors influencing the hydrogeological system, where a note and a weight are affected and varying with each parameter used. This method is based in the parameters like depth to the groundwater, net recharge, Aquifer media, soil media, topography, impact of the vadose zone, and hydraulic conductivity. The results show that the study area is characterized by a low and medium vulnerability to pollution.
WATER QUALITY INDEX FOR WATER SAMPLES OF RAJGHAT RESERVOIR IN SAGAR CITY, M.P., INDIA
Authors: Pathak Hemant
Published: December 2020

The present work is aimed at assessing the water quality index (WQI) for the Rajghat reservoir water on Bewas River life line of Sagar city. This has been determined by collecting water samples from selected 5 locations covered entire reservoir, and subjecting the samples to a most important physico-chemical analysis. 14 parameters have been considered: DO, water temperature, Conductivity, TDS, TSS, pH, Total hardness, calcium content, magnesium content, Total alkalinity, chloride, nitrate, o-Phosphate, and iron present in water samples. The results obtained reveal that the water quality of the area needs some degree of treatment before consumption. It therefore becomes imperative to regularly monitoring the quality of water to protect it. The objective of the present work is to compute water quality index values to assess the suitability of water for human consumption. Water level has a net positive effect on water quality in water body through dilution of environmental parameters. Consequently, local management agencies should pay more attention to nutrient concentrations during the monitoring schedule, as well as during the low-water periods which manifest a relatively bad water quality state.
‘HESS-BREZOWSKY’ ATMOSPHERIC CLASSIFICATION TYPES ASSOCIATED WITH NAO AND AO PHASES IN THE NORTHERN PART OF MOLDOVA

Published: December 2020

The North Atlantic Oscillation (NAO) and that Artic (AO), respectively, are by considerable importance to make the short-time weather forecast (until three days), followed by those of middle range and long time (until two weeks). To analyzing the ‘Hess-Brezowsky’ weather patterns associated with the NAO and AO during 19 years (2000 to 2018), has highlighted some aspects over the weather kind in the north part of Moldova. The zonal air-masses’ movements such as northwestern and western, both of them into the anti-cyclonic and cyclonic regime, were deployed in a predominately positive phase of NAO and AO. In the case of NWA type, NAO was 0.17 and AO 0.60, and for WA, NAO was 0.12 and AO 0.71. From NWZ, the NAO shown values around of 0.03 and AO 0.08. Exceptionally, NAO was into a negative phase in the case of WZ, with a value of around -0.13. Instead, for WZ, the AO was positive, with a yearly average of 0.08. Such air-masses movements are associated with a mild weather pattern, especially during the wintertime. Then, over the southern part of Europe, it’s set up the ‘Omega’ ridge. In doing so, the amounts of the precipitations are low at the studied area’s level. By a more significant interest is the southwesterly air-masses movement into a cyclonic regime (SWZ) who shown values of NAO of -0.16 and 00.26 for AO. Also, negative values for NAO were in the case of TRM (Trough over Central Europe), with -0.04 and HNFZ (High over Scandinavia-Iceland, Trough over Central Europe), with -0.64. For the same synoptically contexts (TRM and HNFZ), the AO was of -0.23, respectively, -1.31. Associated with the negative phases of NAO and AO, the planetary waves have shown an undulatory tendency. In such a case, there are development areas with extreme weather. For the studied region, the negative phases of NAO and AO were associated with severe weather events, such as blizzards, storms, and floods.

The parameters of radar antenna systems constructed according to the traditional scheme with phase shifters inserted both in the transmitting and receiving antenna array with the radar in which signal processing is performed only on the receiving side are considered and compared in the paper. In the second case, an additional requirement of orthogonality of the radiated signals is imposed on the radiating system of the transmitter. The characteristics of the radar with three transmitters and four receivers are compared. Two variants of forming a virtual antenna array are considered. In the first case, the radiation of the linear regular antenna array is analyzed, in the second case the thinned one, but with the same number of emitters. We demonstrate that in the second case, it is possible to implement the radar with a better angular resolution. The features of using the radar as a short-range radar for vehicle security systems with a wide-angle view are elaborated. The possibility of false capture of the target is noted. The authors of the research suggest the unambiguous direction finding method.
Perleporten – et post-brechtiansk teater?
Authors: Watson Anna Blekastad
Published: December 2020

I denne artikkelen viser jeg til Perleporten Teatergruppes særegne formspråk i forestillingene Knoll & Tott (1975) og i Jug meg en saga (1976), og hvordan formspråket er et resultat av gruppens politiske ståsted og anarkistisk livssyn, samt deres bakgrunn fra dramalinjen på Hartvig Nissen skole. Gruppens mål synes å ha vært å invitere publikum til å gjøre opp sine egne meninger og holdninger til sosiale, kulturelle og politiske problemstillinger. Disse ble løftet fram gjennom en bruk av anti-autoritære virkemidler og en fragmentarisk dramaturgi. I analysen av Perleportens teater har jeg sett på mulige berøringspunkter mellom The Living Theatre og Perleporten, som begge hadde anarkistiske idealer. I tillegg gjør jeg en nylesning av Jug meg en saga hvor jeg sammenstiller Perleportens bruk av fragmenterte narrativer og montasje av kontrasterende scener med et post-brechtiansk uttrykk. Et slikt uttrykk er særlig Heiner Müller kjent for. Ved å diskutere likheter og forskjeller mellom bruk av sceniske virkemidler og dramaturgi i oppsettinger av Perleporten Teatergruppe, The Living Theater og Heiner Müller søker jeg å vise hvordan Perleportens teater står i en anarkistisk-politisk tradisjon, som på 1970- og tidlig 80-tallet var usedvanlig i en norsk kontekst, men ikke nødvendigvis i en amerikansk eller europeisk kontekst.

Para isso, foram criadas 9 categorias de análises: profilaxia e cura do coronavírus, vacina, xenofobia, vídeos verdadeiros no contexto falso, teoria de que o vírus foi previsto no passado, político, pânico, isolamento social e outros. A partir das análises, concluiu-se que 86 notícias foram encontradas em um período de 60 dias. Além disso, percebe-se que embora os recursos tecnológicos e a internet facilitam sobremaneira o acesso a todos os tipos de informação, a checagem desta é cada vez mais necessária. Essa situação reforça ainda mais a importância do jornalista e o papel do Gatekeeper.

Authors:   Universitat Central de Catalunya, NAVARRO GUERE Héctor
Published: December 2020

En el contexto de la COVID-19, hemos consumido información con diferentes percepciones. Esta investigación cuantitativa y descriptiva a partir de un cuestionario online estudia el consumo de información que consultamos, leemos, visionamos, oímos y compartimos sobre la pandemia Se trata de un estudio exploratorio para conocer la calidad, confianza y participación en los contenidos, y también los medios/plataformas que consultamos. Para la Generación X, Z y los Baby boomers, los medios tradicionales se perciben de calidad y confianza, mientras que los nuevos medios son más para el entretenimiento y para difundir informaciones falsas. Esta información la reciben en sus dispositivos móviles y televisión, y el tiempo de consulta no supera la hora al día.
Cosmofagia e net-ativismo indígena brasileiro, durante a pandemia da Covid-19
Authors:   Universidade Federal do Amazonas, FRANCO Thiago , DA SILVA Marcelo ,   Universidade Federal do Amazonas
Published: December 2020

Este artigo tem o objetivo de mapear as etnias brasileiras conectadas a Internet e observar as práticas comunicacionais net-ativistas indígenas, durante a pandemia da Covid-19, como forma de resistência e enfrentamento aos processos cosmofágicos a partir da análise de três perfis do Instagram: @midiaindiaoficial, @apiboficial e @visibilidadeindigena. A partir das análises, foi possível perceber como as comunicações dos perfis são fortemente marcadas por 1) conscientização e denúncia de violações dos direitos indígenas; 2) divulgação de conquistas e eventos e 3) articulação de mobilizações, ocupações e intervenções organizadas. Além disso, percebe-se que a rede do Instagram passa a ser habitada pelos povos indígenas como um ecossistema de luta e resistência.
Ciudades MIL, smart campus y e-salud: Prevención epidemiológica
Authors:   Universidade de São Paulo, CHIBÁS ORTIZ Felipe , AGUADED Ignacio ,   Universidad de Huelva, CIVILA Sabina ,   Universidad de Huelva, DIAS Ana ,   Universidade de São Paulo
Published: December 2020

La adopción del framework Ciudades MIL es una propuesta que engloba a las ciudades resilientes, inteligentes, saludables, creativas e innovadoras. En el presente trabajo se propone mostrar cómo la implementación de este paradigma podría contribuir a superar algunos de los problemas estructurales y de salud en las universidades. Para ello, se realiza un análisis exploratorio y comparativo utilizando 13 indicadores inspirados en el paradigma de las ciudades MIL, adaptado a las ciudades universitarias, profundizando en la universidad de Sao Paolo. Como resultado principal se evidencia que aún hay un largo camino por recorrer, antes de que puedan evaluarse los campus universitarios como inteligentes. Se concluye exponiendo que no existe una planificación preventiva sólida para combatir enfermedades y pandemias.

Policing Without Probity: the Discreditable Service of Superintendent John Robinson At Haverfordwest, 1851–61
Authors: Hancock Simon
Published: December 2020

This article examines the career of a police superintendent at Haverfordwest in Pembrokeshire between 1851 and 1861 as a case study of policing in a small town in the mid-nineteenth century. His ten-year service as chief of police witnessed his repeated breaching of the norms of probity
and ethical behaviour, and his dishonesty revealed systemic weakness in maintaining police accountability. Personal and private interests compromised his public duties and this conflict led to his dismissal from the force.
Концепция имитационной модели развития агропродовольственных рынков
Authors: Тютюников Александр Александрович
Published: December 2020

Цель: статья посвящена вопросам использования системно-динамического инструментария для имитационного моделирования рынков сельскохозяйственного сырья и продовольствия. Обсуждение: предлагаемый в исследовании подход основан на непрерывно-детерминированном моделировании процессов производства, распределения и потребления продукции, формирования цен, спроса и предложения. В качестве основных гипотез модели приняты: частичное равновесие на рынке, складывающееся в результате взаимовлияния цен, спроса и предложения; динамичный характер предпочтений (в т.ч. неценовых) потребителей и производителей продукции; специфический характер предложения, связанный с особенностями аграрных отраслей; возможность вмешательства в процессы со стороны государственных регуляторов. В соответствии с данными гипотезами разработаны ключевые механизмы модели: механизм частичного рыночного равновесия на основе модифицированной модели Эванса, механизмы импорта и экспорта на основе модели Армингтона, механизм замедленной реакции предложения, механизм ценовых шоков и др. Результаты: предлагаемая модель визуализирована и параметризирована в соответствии с идеологией системной динамики. Намечены основные направления ее апробации и проведения направленных вычислительных экспериментов.
Оценка инвестиционной привлекательности территории: теоретико-методический анализ
Authors: Тинякова Виктория Ивановна , Морозова Наталья Ивановна
Published: December 2020

Цель: совершенствование методических подходов к оценке инвестиционной активности территории. Обсуждение: инвестиционный климат территории целесообразно рассматривать во взаимосвязи с инвестиционной привлекательностью и инвестиционной активностью, находящихся в причинно-следственных отношениях друг с другом. Такой подход позволяет перейти от изучения одних лишь следствий к изучению также и причин, что позволит рассмотреть всевозможные сценарии и причины и установить необходимый консенсус в отношении наиболее вероятных причин. Кроме того, использование диаграммы причинно-следственных связей целесообразно в случае необходимости выявления возможных первопричин конкретного воздействия, а также при разработке мероприятий корректирующего действия. Результаты: предложена методика оценки инвестиционной привлекательности территории.
К вопросу о сущности стратегии социально-экономического развития городского округа
Authors: Чичерина Анастасия Сергеевна
Published: December 2020

Цель: статья посвящена вопросам исследования сущности стратегии социально-экономического развития городского округа. Обсуждение: существующие тенденции развития и условия, определяющие характер глобальных процессов в обозримом будущем, свидетельствуют о беспрецедентном увеличении турбулентности развития социально-экономических систем. В значительной степени это имеет отношение и к городским округам, как к центрам экономического и инновационного развития, в которых проживает около 75% населения страны. Одним из инструментов, позволяющих городу эффективно преодолевать вызовы с учетом нарастающей неопределенности внешней среды, является стратегия его социально-экономического развития, что обусловливает актуальность проводимого исследования. Результаты: автором рассмотрены значимые характеристики стратегии развития, присущие любой социально-экономической системе; выявлены существующие подходы к определению стратегии социально-экономического развития муниципального образования (городского округа), выявлены их сильные и слабые стороны; предложено авторское определение стратегии социально-экономического развития городского округа.
О свойствах нелинейности динамических социально-экономических систем и процессов
Authors: Ковалева Ксения Александровна , Кумратова Альфира Менлигуловна , Клинцевич Роман Иванович , Великановна Лариса Олеговна
Published: December 2020

Цель: настоящая статья посвящена вопросу использования инструментальных и математических методов моделирования временных рядов личного и социального страхования на базе фрактального анализа. Обсуждение: использованные и адаптированные автором методы фрактального анализа обеспечивают выявление и оценку ряда фундаментальных предпрогнозных характеристик социально-экономических временных рядов, а именно наличие памяти, в том числе долговременной, ее глубины, что, в свою очередь, может определить процесс как персистентный (антиперсистентный, трендоустойчивый или реверсный), выявить цвет шума. Результаты: проведенное исследование позволило адаптировать и предложить завершенную систему моделей и методов фрактального анализа временных рядов для обеспечения большей надежности последующего прогнозирования.
Совет Баренцева/Евроарктического региона как механизм регионального сотрудничества Российской Федерации с государствами Северной Европы
Authors: Удовиченко Александр Иванович , Макаров Сергей Александрович
Published: December 2020

Цель : исследование механизмов межгосударственного взаимодействия в рамках Совета Баренцева/Евроарктического региона (Совет), выявление проблем региональной безопасности в исследуемом регионе, определение роли российской стороны в структуре организации. Обсуждение : при достаточном многообразии интеграционных объединений на Севере Европы авторами акцентируется внимание на Совете, как важном элементе гуманитарного, экологического и торгового сотрудничества. В то же время темпы экономической кооперации внутри организации снижены на фоне политической турбулентности последнего десятилетия. Наметившаяся тенденция нивелирует ряд базовых принципов, являющихся основополагающими для структур уровня межрегионального объединения. Информационной базой анализа послужили не только концептуальные исследования по интересующей проблематике, но и стенограммы официальных выступлений, докладов, совместных заявлений глав государств и правительств, а также представителей международных и региональных организаций на Севере Европы. Результаты : в статье проведено исследование Совета в контексте участия его членов в деятельности по обеспечению безопасности, рассмотрен механизм и структура взаимодействия, выявлены ключевые проблемы региональной безопасности, а также вовлеченность Российской Федерации в интеграционные процессы.
Формирование компетенций обучающихся в сфере анализа отчетности организаций при преподавании дисциплин экономико–управленческого цикла
Authors: Коробков Евгений Владимирович , Сабетова Татьяна Владиславовна , Шишкина Лариса Александровна
Published: December 2020

Цель : в статье прорабатывается вопрос о проблеме формирования целевых компетенций обучающихся высших учебных заведений всех уровней высшего образования. Обсуждение : международный магистерский курс «Аграрный менеджмент», предлагаемый рядом аграрных университетов России и других государств, предполагает практико-ориентированный подход к обучению. Одним из ключевых его аспектов является формирование навыков анализа первичной информации и отчетности, получаемой от реальных предприятий. Ре зультаты : авторы на примере одной из форм отчетности аграрного предприятия предлагают упорядоченную методику проведения семинарских занятий, нацеленных не только на формирование навыков вычисления показателей для анализа тех или иных аспектов работы предприятия, но и построения выводов на их основании, а также запросов на поиск дополнительной информации и оценки достоверности ее источников.
