Cigarette smoking (CS) and low physical activity levels (PAL) are known to be risk factors for cardiovascular diseases. However, few studies have examined the associations between these factors in population of university students, and, to the best of our knowledge, no study examined this issue in period after the COVID-19 pandemic, despite the detrimental social and health consequences of the pandemic. The aim of this cross-sectional study was to examine associations between sport-participation, PAL and CS among university-level students in the first year after the COVID-19 pandemic. Participants were 761 students (411 females) from three universities in Bosnia and Herzegovina and Croatia, who were tested using semi-structured anonymous questionnaires at the beginning of the 2022/2023 academic year. Questions included queries on sociodemographic characteristics, CS, PAL, and sport-participation. Differences between genders were established by Chi-square test and gender-stratified logistic regressions were calculated to evaluate the associations between sport-participation and PAL, with binomized CS (smoking vs. non-smoking). One third of participants were daily smokers. Logistic regression showed no correlation between PAL and smoking prevalence for total sample (OR = 0.88, 95%CI: 0.75-1.05), males (OR = 0.95, 95%CI: 0.41-1.45), or females (OR = 0.90, 95%CI: 0.54-1.52). In addition, sport participation was not significantly associated with smoking. Results did not prove that sport and physical exercising are a way of reducing the likelihood of smoking; this finding could be a characteristic of the studied sample of participants, but could also be related to the period that was observed (the first year after the COVID-19 pandemic). Further studies examining the associations between PAL/sport participation and other types of substance misuse are warranted.
Sheremetevs’ Gifts to the Kirillo-Belozersky Monastery in the 16th Century

Published: April 2023

The article studies gifts of the Sheremetev family to the Kirillo-Belozersky Monastery in the 16th century. It draws on materials of the first Gift book (vkladnaya kniga) of the Kirillo-Belozersky Monastery for 1559/60?1620s and on those of later gift inventory for 1618?40, Commemoration book (kormovaya kniga), acts, and other sources. The Gift book of the Kirillov Monastery 1559/60 ? 1620s was unknown to the author of a fundamental study on the Sheremetev family A. P. Barsukov and other researchers. Meanwhile, its materials clarify some data on the Sheremetevs’ gifts to the Kirillo-Belozersky Monastery and biographies of the members of this family. The Sheremetevs started making their donations to the monastery in late 1540s, when their career at the court began. The first Gift book contains information on donations made “in commemoration of the soul” of Ivan Bolshoi, Grigory, Nikita, and Ivan Menshoi Vasilyevich Sheremetevs. All of them, as well as the son and daughter of Ivan Bolshoi Vasilyevich Sheremetev (Yeremey and Agafya), the son and grandson of Ivan Menshoi Vasilyevich Sheremetev (Fedor Ivanovich and Alexei Fedorovich) were buried in the Kirillo-Belozersky Monastery. The Sheremetevs' donations to the Kirillov Monastery were very rich. Especially large gifts were made by the eldest brother, Ivan Bolshoi Vasilievich, amounting to more than 1,500 rubles. The Gift book provides most accurate information on time and circumstances of the Sheremetevs’ donations to the monastery in the 16th century (in comparison with the Commemoration book and other sources). For example, the materials of the Gift book clarify the date of death of Semen Vasilyevich Sheremetev (October 8, 1557) and that of tonsure of Ivan Bolshoi Vasilyevich Sheremetev in the Kirillov Monastery (shortly after June 6, 1571). The authors note that, despite their successful career and service, the Sheremetevs did not enjoy the favor of Tsar Ivan and were under his suspicion. Therefore, it is the Kirillov Monastery, located far from the political storms of the 16th century and enjoying great prestige as a spiritual center, that the Sheremetevs choose as their family monastery and burial place.
New Documents on the Finnish Occupation of the Olonets Region of Karelia in 1941–44

The article analyzes newly identified documents detailing the detention of prisoners in Finnish detention facilities created on the territory of the Olonets region of Karelia during the Great Patriotic War. They provide an opportunity of studying regional aspects of the Finnish occupation of Karelia in 1941-44, comparing the data with other materials on the Finnish occupation of the Olonets region. The documents are letters of concentration camp prisoners, written to the archive in late 20th century in order to obtain certificates of their occupancy in the camp. Although the letters should have been stricken off, the archivists of the Olonets Archive have preserved them and carried out their initial analysis. These letters are, in essence, memoirs, and in the case of the Finnish occupation of Karelia, memoirs are often the only source allowing us to study the nature of the occupation regime. For instance, the letters have permitted to identify the exact location of some Finnish camps on the territory of the Olonets region, which remained unclear when working with the People's Commissariat for State Security (NKGB) documents. Some war crimes of the Finnish occupiers were already known, but these documents reveal new crimes of the camp guards, some against children. The letters listing names of deceased relatives are also of great interest, showing the mortality rate in the camps. In addition to confirming their occupancy in the camp, former prisoners recalled the events of the Finnish occupation of Karelia. This material demonstrates what work was performed by prisoners, reveals specific war crimes, and reconstructs everyday life in the detention camps. It is worth noting that modern Russian historiography often raises the issue of the impact of occupation on the psyche of children. The documents presented in the article contribute to the study of this issue. They can be used for studying regional aspects of the Finnish occupation of Karelia, for identifying war crimes, for micro level study of the Finnish occupation, and for indactive study of the occupation regime on the territory of the USSR in the days of the Great Patriotic War.
The Imperial Train Disaster at the Borki Station in 1888 through the Eyes of an Eyewitness

Published: April 2023

This is the first publication of the previously unknown testimony on the imperial train disaster at the Borki station of the Kursk—Kharkov—Azov railway. The diary of the Hofmarshal of Alexander III, Lord V. S. Obolensky-Neledinsky-Meletsky, preserved in the Department of Written Sources of the State Historical Museum (OPI GIM), contains many details from the life of the imperial family and the court, including those of the catastrophe, which occurred on October 17, 1888. The diary reflects the condition of the survivors of the crash, their mood, behavior, as well as the experiences and assessments of those close to the imperial family who, although absent on the tsar's train, could nevertheless observe the survivors’ reaction. Due to his closeness to the royal couple, with whom he was connected not only by official, but also by friendly relations, the author of the diary had the opportunity to observe the emperor and empress in a family setting and knew their feelings hidden from the public. Of particular interest are the rumors about the causes of the crash that spread among the emperor's retinue (and still emerge in the literature), as well as the authorship of some initiatives, such as changing the route of the imperial train. The diary highlights the daily life of the imperial family and the relations between the aristocratic court and servants that have not attracted the attention of contemporaries or researchers. The analysis of all these themes has required maximum use of the source and its detailed commentary. The study draws on both published and unpublished materials, as well as on periodicals. Special attention has been paid to identifying data on the persons mentioned in the diary, many of whom have been researched for the first time. Identification of the author’s immediate environment was particularly problematic, as he used diminutive names (Sofa, Varya) and did not mention surnames. To determine the kinship and friendship ties of V. S. Obolensky, the historical and genealogical method has been widely used. The testimony of V. S. Obolensky about the Borki train disaster, as well as preceding and subsequent days of the journey, is characterized by high information potential and reliability. Not only it expands the source base, but also corrects some established notions on Alexander III, his environment, and era.
Enthusiasm of the Russian Troops at the Final Stage of the First World War, 1914–18: A Case-Study of Creation of the “Heroes of the Second Patriotic War” Monument in Vyazma 1916
Authors:   K. G. Razumovsky Moscow State University of Technologies and Management, Vyazma branch, Vyazma, Russian Federation, Komarov Dmitriy E.
Published: April 2023

The article attemts to reconstruct history and considerations of construction of the only Russian monument to the soldiers of the First World War. By summer 1916, Russia had been fighting on the fronts of the First World War for nearly two years. After rebuilding national economy on a war footing, negative phenomena developed in the socio-political structure of the state, which eventually would result in a nationwide crisis. No less dangerous was the situation in the multi-million Russian army. Having abandoned significant territories, suffering severe military setbacks in 1914–15, the army was losing its morale. There was great war-weariness, prospects for early victory looked vague. N.N. Golovin accurately called it the “broken spirit of the country.” These phenomena in the army found expression in desertion, draft evasion, unwillingness to “fight heroically” and endure hardships. Thus, patriotic initiative of the inhabitants of Vyazma to build a Second Patriotic War monument seems quite remarkable. It is even more peculiar, as monuments were not built until the end of the direct hostilities. Moreover, the public offered to erect the monument at its expense. The construction itself was a grassroots initiative and could have been picked up by other Russian cities, contributing to a revival of public support for the army and raising the troops morale. The project took into account the communal psychology of the Russian peasant, dressed in overcoat and fighting at the front. Names of fellow countrymen recipients of the Order of St George were to be incribed on the monument, providing an incentive for heroism at the front. Also, the heroes’ names of were to be included in special lists in rural schools. Information on the opening of the monument and proposed forms of perpetuating countrymen was sent to the fronts. A three-minute film was made about the monument in Vyazma. However, despite its clearly patriotic orientation and prospects, the Vyazma initiative was not supported nationwide. The analysis of Russian press in summer 1916 has showed that most popular newspapers and magazines did not publish information on this event. The Second Patriotic War monument in Vyazma is the first and only monument dedicated to the First World War in Russia. The methods of perpetuating heroes were, most likely, never implemented, and the empire itself lasted less than a year. In 1918 the monument was destroyed.
Lower Segment of Productive Society of Russia in the 1950s – 1960s: Sources on the Problem of Perception of Socio-Economic and Political Inequality
Authors:   Vologda State Dairy Academy, Vologda, Russian Federation, Stoletova Anna S.
Published: April 2023

Epistolary heritage of the 20th century is a mass source on the history of the development of way of thinking, world perception, worldview, self-awareness of the Russian society. Large blocks of documents of this type are stored in many central and regional archives and libraries. The author raises the issue of identification of letters written by representatives of the productive segment. Employees and workers from the average strata of the working class left much commentary on socio-economic and political processes in the country. As a rule, these were sent to Soviet newspapers or directly to the Central Committee of the CPSU. In the Central Committee, letters were distributed to specialized departments and registered in the press sector. A significant corpus of these documents (partially declassified) is preserved in fond 5 (“Apparatus of the Central Committee of the CPSU (1949–1991)”) and in fond 100 (Subdivision of Letters of the General Department of the Central Committee of the CPSU (1953–1991)”) in the Russian State Archive of Contemporary History. However, establishing to which strata of productive society the authors belonged seems a difficult task. Many texts are anonymous or written by pensioners, war invalids, groups of workers of unknown specialization. Nevertheless, data obtained from the letters relates not only to material conditions, everyday life, work and rest, but also to factors influencing norms of behavior, political preferences. Analysis of documentary data informs of formation of socio-psychological portraits of groups of workers in production and overproduction, as well as of levels of public consciousness, value orientations, spiritual world, mentality that were developing in the productive environment. The article concludes that epistolary genre reflected the situation of social reformatting in the 1950s – 1960s. The letters illuminate the process of genesis of a social and labor community with new moral and managerial values and attitudes. Demarcation in the productive society deepened, as acute and urgent social phenomena of working life intensified. In state economic structure there emerged two types of behavior. One gravitated towards preservation and reproduction of traditions. This was characteristic of the lower strata of society: urban and rural workers, proletarians. They insisted on collectivism, equalization, fairness. A different type of lifestyle was associated with moneymaking part of the society, middle and upper classes: party nomenklatura, specialists, managers. They set their own agenda, one reflected in the letters of ordinary people as “abuses.”
Memoirs and Autobiographical Fragments in Official Documents of the 19th Century on the Example of the Siberian Governors’-General Reports
Authors:   Institute of History of the Siberian Branch of the Russian Academy of Sciences, Novosibirsk, Russian Federation, Matkhanova Natalia P.
Published: April 2023

The article reflects on boundary line of ego-documents and their inherent features. The author reviews the existing notions and offers her own approach. One traditional approach identifies memoir and/or autobiographical fragments in other types of documents. Another expands the corpus of ego-documents by including sources containing memoir and/or autobiographical fragments. Adherers of the latter approach postulate that professional autobiographies, official letters, formal requests, etc. convey personal traits, providing information about their authors and their feelings and emotional state. This article proposes a compromise solution: to include such texts in the corpus of ego-documents, placing them to its periphery, if size and significance of memoir and/or autobiographical fragments is substantial; in other instances, to indicate the presence of such fragments, noting their significance for characterization of the author’s personality. The article develops a definition, according to which memoir and/or autobiographical fragment is a thematically or plot-completed textual fragment reflecting personality or memory of certain person(s), incorporated in a text that is not memoir in its origin and purpose, created at the initiative of an author and containing direct personal statements. In order to identify such fragments, the article analyzes reports of the Siberian governor-generals of the 19th century; discovers circumstances and factors, under which memoir and/or autobiographical fragments most often appear in these official documents. These are: (1) first impressions of the region; (2) highlighting issues of personal interest; (3) sharing impressions that gave rise to strong emotions. The article concludes by arguing that memoir fragments often appear in the reports of governor-generals who could be characterized as enterprising, empathic people of high intellectual level, who enjoyed the emperor's trust, but (relatively) rarely had the opportunity for personal audience. These fragments are closely related to the reports’ agenda; they reflect the personality and individuality of the authors. At the same time, fragments do not change the nature of the document, thus preventing their attribution to ego-documents. Identification of such fragments and their methodical study can expand our understanding of significance and diversity of historical sources of this type, complement and enrich information about their authors. The very idea of identifying memoir and/or autobiographical fragments in documents of different types, including official government documents, seems promising and has potential for further research.

ESTADO ACTUAL Y TRANSFORMACIONES DEL EMPLEO RURAL EN AMÉRICA LATINA. UN ANÁLISIS DEL CASO DE CHILE
Authors: Pérez Silva Rodrigo
Published: April 2023

El empleo rural de América Latina se ha mantenido históricamente en una situación desfavorable respecto de las áreas urbanas. Mientras los ingresos de los habitantes rurales son inferiores, el trabajo por cuenta propia, el trabajo agrícola y la pluriactividad, típicamente asociados a alta vulnerabilidad, son mayores en áreas rurales. Pese a lo anterior, en las últimas décadas los países de la región han observado modificaciones en sus estructuras de empleo rural. El objetivo del estudio es plasmar el estado actual y las transformaciones del empleo rural en América Latina, analizando los cambios recientes producidos en Chile. Se utilizan diversas encuestas de hogares para describir la situación del empleo rural para cuatro países de América Latina: Chile, Colombia, Guatemala y Nicaragua, y se analizan los cambios recientes producidos en Chile. Los resultados indican que, si bien las áreas rurales de América Latina se encuentran en condiciones desfavorable, en el Chile rural se observa una caída en el empleo agrícola y en el trabajo por cuenta propia, y una mayor participación femenina, lo que se condice con una mejora en las condiciones de vida de los habitantes rurales y una potencial convergencia económica hacia las áreas urbanas.
CRECIMIENTO E INDICADORES DE TOLERANCIA A LA SALINIDAD DE VERDOLAGA DE INVIERNO (Claytonia perfoliata Donn ex Willd.)
Authors: Harris Marcela , Krizaj Christian , Ventura Facundo , Frezza Diana
Published: April 2023

En el mundo hay 76 millones de hectáreas de suelos afectados por salinidad. Dado que este problema afecta a invernaderos de producciones hortícolas del Cinturón Verde de Buenos Aires, donde la disminución de rendimiento es de hasta un 50%, surge la necesidad de evaluar la tolerancia a la salinidad de hortalizas. El objetivo de este trabajo fue evaluar el crecimiento de verdolaga de invierno (Claytonia perfoliata Donn ex Willd.) en ambiente salino, identificando indicadores de mecanismos de su adaptación. Se cultivó la especie en un sistema sin suelo con tres niveles de conductividad eléctrica: 1,5 (control), 3,5 y 6,5 dS m-1. Se midieron semanalmente variables de crecimiento, y a cosecha se determinó acumulación de sodio, potasio y calcio, azúcares (fructosa, sacarosa y glucosa), ácido abscísico y ácido salicílico en hojas, raíces e inflorescencias. En hojas, se evaluaron indicadores de regulación antioxidante (glutatión, malondialdehido, catalasa, guaiacol peroxidasa y superóxido dismutasa). Ninguna de las variables de crecimiento se vio afectada por el tratamiento salino. Sin embargo, se observó una diferencia significativa en peso fresco y seco aéreo entre 1,5 y 6,5 dS m-1 previo a la cosecha. Respecto a los indicadores de tolerancia a la salinidad, se observó un aumento de sodio en hojas e inflorescencias con el aumento de la conductividad. Para el resto de los indicadores, no hubo tendencias claras o diferencias a nivel estadístico. En conclusión, verdolaga de invierno se adapta a ambientes salinos y acumula sodio en sus tejidos, sin verse afectado el crecimiento.

Nos últimos anos, os games se tornaram parte integrante da nossa cultura e atravessam a vida diária de crianças e adolescentes. Caracteriza-se como um universo dinâmico, híbrido, uma prática comtemporânea com significados culturais, escolhido pelos jovens, adolescentes e crianças, para brincarem livremente, longe dos olhares disciplinadores de pais e professores. Nesse sentido, procura-se problematizar de que forma os adolescentes constroem sentidos através da cultura dos games, verificar as possíveis implicações na sua vida escolar, buscando entender no que consistem as suas experiências e formas de interação usadas durante o jogo, evidenciadas em suas falas. Essa questão se efetivará mediante a observação de adolescentes, que têm no uso do video-game uma prática recorrente, e de entrevistas orientadas e semi-estruturadas; também análise documental e diário de pesquisa. Terá caráter interpretativo, a análise dos dados será qualitativa, norteada pelos autores Bortoni-Ricardo (2009) e Denzin e Lincoln (2006), tendo em vista uma maior compreensão do discurso dos entrevistados. As questões que nortearão esta pesquisa são: 1) De que forma os adolescentes constroem sentidos através da prática de videogame? 2) Quais as implicações da prática de games na vida escolar dos adolescentes? Utilizando referenciais teóricos do campo dos estudos de novos letramentos e partindo do conceito de jogo apresentado por Huizinga (2012) e Santaella (2007). Com essa pesquisa, espera-se resultados que venham contribuir para a minha própria prática, trazendo novos olhares relacionados aos jogos digitais na escola.

Gêneros textuais orais
Authors: CEREZOLI Andreia Ines Hanel
Published: April 2023

Nesse trabalho aborda-se a questão da multimodalidade constitutiva dos gêneros orais, mais especificamente a vídeo-aula. Tem como objetivo identificar os meios não-linguísticos, ou seja, multimodais, presentes no gênero vídeo­aula e refletir sobre a construção dos sentidos oriundos de tais fatores. A pertinência científica do trabalho reside no fato de que com o avanço das discussões do ensino de línguas baseado nos gêneros textuais, incluindo-se os orais, é preciso saber como tais recursos multimodais podem ser explorados, tanto no ensino quanto na avaliação. Assim, o trabalho traz, inicialmente, recortes teóricos sobre letramento, multiletramento, multimodalidade, de Marcuschi (2010) e Rojo (2012, 2013) e, sobre gêneros textuais de (Bakhtin, 2011) e Schneuwly e Dolz (2004) que encaminham as análises. Em seguida, busca­se compreender as “características” dos gêneros textuais orais e apresentar postulados teóricos que permitem compreender a vídeo-aula como um gênero textual, fundamentados principalmente em Maingueneau (2013). Na sequência, realiza-se a análise dos aspectos multimodais em uma vídeo-aula e encerra-se o trabalho apontando-se suas contribuições ao ensino e possíveis avanços decorrentes de futuras pesquisas.

Diáspora, identidade e deslocamentos em Dany Laferriére
Authors: SOARES Karla Andrea Cândido Rêgo
Published: April 2023

Esse artigo propõe estudar como o sujeitoda diáspora é visto na visão do colonizador no romance de Dany Laferrière “Como fazer amor com um negro sem se cansar” (1985). Usando de recortes teóricos do conceito de hibridização, desterritorialização,assim como dos estudos Pós-Coloniais fundamentados por Stuart Hall, Homi Bhabha, Bonnici e outros,sobre cultura, diáspora e identidade cultural. O estudo pretende compreender a representação da identidade do negro na diáspora, de suas manifestações culturais, da concepção de sujeito construída e assumida nesse processo diaspórico. Com isso esse sujeito estabelece uma hegemonia de valores que ele vai compartilhar com essa nova sociedade, estabelecendo parâmetros de interligações entre sua cultura e ado Outro, falando de um entre lugar que segundo Bhabha (1998) gera uma discussão sobre a identidade e o espaço de onde ele sujeito fala.

The role of visual management in the organization of safe work in production companies
Authors: Furman Joanna , Małysa Tomasz
Published: April 2023

Workers play a superior role in the production process because they are responsible for its proper functioning (e.g. process efficiency, quality, technical condition of usage machines), and are also responsible for safety at work. The issue of work safety should be a crucial factor in the process of introducing changes in the company. The introduced changes should take into account safe working conditions and reduce the number of potential accidents, therefore employers should implement solutions aimed at improving work safety. One of the tools that can affect work safety is visual management (VM). The use of various forms of VM enables immediate response to emerging problems, which may translate into an increase in employees' awareness of health and safety issues. The article presents the possibilities of using of visual management tools in manufacturing companies in terms of improving work safety. The proposed solutions can be used by enterprises that register accidents at work and take actions to increase employees' awareness of occupational safety and health (OSH).
A New Decipherment of the Pyrgi Tablets with Reliance on Astronomy
Authors: Ivanković Milorad
Published: April 2023

The three golden tablets from Pyrgi, an ancient site on the coast of the Tyrrhenian Sea, in Lazio, Italy, known as Laminae Pyrgienses discovered in 1964 is the only bilingual Etruscan text of which one tablet is inscribed in Phoenician and the other two in Etruscan. Hoped to be a kind of Etruscan ‘Rosetta Stone’ with identical texts in two languages, the initial enthusiasm turned into disappointment when the researchers realized that the texts were incongruent with each other, the Etruscan being rather paraphrased from the Phoenician, or vice versa. Since then a number of attempts at its deciphering were undertaken but with moderate success. Despite some progress achieved in recent years, there still remain some portions of the Etruscan text that defy sound interpretation of its content. The present paper takes quite a different approach, relying on the astronomical data already alluded to by the texts of the Pyrgi tablets themselves for more promising results. Keywords: Pyrgi tablets, Phoenician, Etruscan, goddesses, astronomy
MAIN ASPECTS OF MANAGING LOGISTICS BUSINESS PROCESSES AND THEIR QUALITY ASSESSMENT

Published: April 2023

The development of logistics, the formation of logistics chains and ensuring their effective functioning require improved management of logistics business processes. However, in literature and practical activities today, the aspects of managing logistics business processes are of a different nature, it is necessary to justify the approach to the creation of an integrated management system based on the assessment of their quality. It has been proven that logistics management and quality management is a general process of organization of production at the enterprise, aimed at increasing the efficiency of the use of available material, financial, information and personnel resources. Quality determines which product or service should be carried out taking into account consumer requirements and standards, and logistics – how to achieve the required level of production, the level of organization of processes and costs.In this work, the quality of logistics activity is understood as a set of properties and characteristics of successive interconnected logistics business processes related to the supply, production, transportation and sale of products, which arise as a result of interaction of a consumer and a producer, as well as other interested parties, the degree (level) which allows you to satisfy various socio-economic needs that are constantly changing.A methodological approach to the assessment of the quality of logistics business processes has been developed, which is based on the elements of the SCOR model and provides for the establishment of indicators in the areas of planning, execution, and provision separately for the logistics business processes of supply, production, and sales. The indicators of the quality of logistics business processes in terms of planning include the coefficients of processivity, continuity, adjustability, timeliness, and reliability of execution.To evaluate quality in terms of implementation, the list of evaluation criteria includes the following indicators: staff professionalism; exact fulfillment of all requirements; sufficiency of resources; quality of information exchange; effectiveness of the process. Prospects for further research are to establish directions for the development of the logistics management system, the formation of effective methods of managing logistics business processes based on their quality assessment.

The purpose of the article is to study contemporary methods of innovative management and their application to increase the efficiency of economic activity at the enterprise. The methodological basis of this article is scientific works of outstanding scientists and materials of periodicals. During the research, the method of logical analysis was used in the work to substantiate the tasks of innovation management where there is a clear organization and ensuring the coordinated work of teams. For the purpose of unanimous acceptance of the object of research and a comprehensive assessment of modern methods within the limits of the defined problem, the method of system analysis was used.
Current state of economic development dictate certain conditions, where a significant factor in the effective long-term functioning of any enterprise is the successful implementation of innovative activities, which allows to guarantee its technical, technological and economic development to a greater extent. These goals include the need to increase the innovative activity of the enterprise, increase the innovative potential and carry out systematic planning, as well as the development and implementation of innovations.
The innovation management process uses the main provisions of certain areas of knowledge in a complex, organically combining them, subordinating the main tasks of the economic management of production. The problem of management consists in the well-founded determination of the general directions in the development of the managed object, which operates not only according to general economic laws, but also in the selection of the correct decisions in the current management system for each individual period of time. This means that an element of the decisive foundations of innovation management is the accounting of the real situation and objective trends in the development of both the national economy in general and its separate links, as well as the necessary consideration of those features that affect the nature of production, its placement and some other essential factors. The task of enterprise management is to develop theoretical provisions that determine the mechanism of action of the objective bases of innovative processes management and means of influencing this mechanism in order to create the most favorable conditions for increasing production efficiency. The proposed classification of factors, which, unlike the previous ones, takes into account the economic conditions of the present, which allows to improve the methods of innovative management of the enterprise, that can be used extremely effectively in the entities of economic activity.
