The paper presents the results of studying the influence of the concentration of thermoash from household waste on the main physical-mechanical properties of composites based on polypropylene. Properties such as ultimate tensile stress, tensile yield strength, flexural strength, elongation at break, heat resistance and melt flow index were studied. We used thermoash of various dispersity: 75–110 nm, 300–500 nm, 1200–2000 nm. The results of studying the regularity of changes in properties depending on the concentration and fineness of thermoash showed the advantage of nanocomposites. The loading of a compatibilizer into the composition of composites contributed to a significant improvement in strength characteristics

Das Burnout-Syndrom (BS), das erstmals 1970 beschrieben wurde, tritt als chronische Reaktion auf zwischenmenschliche Stressoren auf, die in der Arbeitssituation auftreten. Es wird von drei Säulen getragen: Emotionale Erschöpfung (EE), Depersonalisation (DP) und reduzierte berufliche Erfüllung (BE). Es tritt normalerweise bei Personen auf, deren Berufe Beziehung Verantwortung tragen. Ärzte gehören zu den am stärksten Betroffenen, insbesondere Chirurgen, die ständige Aufmerksamkeit und Geschicklichkeit benötigen, ein Faktor, der sie für übermäßigen Stress und psychiatrische Erkrankungen prädisponiert. Das Ziel dieser Studie war es, die Prävalenz des Burnout-Syndroms bei Chirurgen im Bundesstaat Amapá zu analysieren, basierend auf der Frage: Wie hoch ist die Prävalenz des Burnout-Syndroms bei Chirurgen, die im Bundesstaat Amapá arbeiten? Die verwendete Methodik war eine quantitative und qualitative Studie mit einem Situations Fragebogen und dem Maslach Burnout Inventory Questionnaire (MBI), die von Chirurgen im Bundesstaat Amapá zwischen März 2016 und August 2016 beantwortet wurden. Die Studie folgte den Resolutionen Nr. 466 von 2012 und Nr. 510 2016 des National Council of Ethics in Research (CONEP). Überwiegend waren männliche Chirurgen mit einem Durchschnittsalter von 42,76 Jahren, meist verheiratet oder in einer festen Beziehung, die über eine mehr als 10-jährige medizinische Ausbildung verfügten und nicht oder bis zu 4 Nachtschichten pro Monat arbeiteten . Allgemeinchirurgen waren anwesend, zusätzlich zu elf anderen Sub-Spezialitäten. In Bezug auf den MBI-Fragebogen weisen etwa 25 % der Befragten eine hohe emotionale Erschöpfung, die gleiche Anzahl eine hohe Depersonalisierung und etwas mehr als 10 % eine geringe berufliche Erfüllung auf. 2,94 % haben Kriterien für die Diagnose eines Burnout-Syndroms. 38,23 % zeigten Veränderungen in mindestens einer der drei Sphären. Die Fachgebiete mit den schlechtesten Ergebnissen waren: Gefäßchirurgie, Onkologische Chirurgie, Neurochirurgie und Urologie. Obwohl diese Gruppe eine höhere Burnout-Syndrom-Rate aufweist als die allgemeine Bevölkerung, sind die Werte immer noch niedriger als die weltweit gefundenen.

Julio Ramón Ribeyro es de los autores más importantes de la literatura no tan solo peruana, sino también latinoamericana y a nivel mundial es muy reconocido. Uno de sus primeros cuentos que no había sido incluido en los compendios hasta este siglo, es el titulado “La careta”, sobre el cual se han escrito varios trabajos. Ahora, nuestra propuesta de ensayo lo aborda desde la perspectiva semiótica de uno de los más destacados analistas del discurso del siglo XX, el ruso Algirdas Julien Greimas. Usamos, para acercarnos de manera más sistemática a su teoría, los trabajos del Grupo Entrevernes, ya que adapta su metodología, la organiza y la hace más funcional. El estudio se aborda desde los dos niveles que propone Greimas, el Nivel de Superficie y el Nivel Profundo, para de esta manera tratar de mostrar el funcionamiento de los signos en el relato
The freedom to explore: examining the influence of independent mobility on weekday, weekend and after-school physical activity behaviour in children living in urban and inner-suburban neighbourhoods of varying socioeconomic status
Authors: Stone Michelle , Faulkner Guy E. J. , Mitra Raktim , Buliung Ron N.
Published: September 2022

Background
Children’s independent mobility (CIM) is critical to healthy development in childhood. The physical layout and social characteristics of neighbourhoods can impact opportunities for CIM. While global evidence is mounting on CIM, to the authors’ knowledge, Canadian data on CIM and related health outcomes (i.e., physical activity (PA) behaviour) are missing. The purpose of this study was to examine if CIM is related to multiple characteristics of accelerometry-measured PA behaviour (total PA, light PA, moderate-to-vigorous PA, time spent sedentary) and whether associations between CIM and PA behaviour systematically vary by place of residence, stratifying by gender and type of day/period (weekdays, after-school, weekend).

Methods
Participants were recruited through Project BEAT (Built Environment and Active Transport; http://www.beat.utoronto.ca). Children (n = 856) were stratified into four neighbourhood classifications based on the period of neighbourhood development (urban built environment (BE) (old BE) versus inner-suburban BE (new BE)) and socioeconomic status (SES; low SES and high SES). Physical activity was measured via accelerometry (ActiGraph GT1M). CIM was assessed via parental report and two categories were created (low CIM, n = 332; high CIM, n = 524). A series of two-factor ANOVAs were used to determine gender-specific differences in PA for weekdays, weekend days and the after-school period, according to level of CIM, across four neighbourhood classifications.

Results
Children who were granted at least some independent mobility (high CIM) had more positive PA profiles across the school week, during the after-school period, and over the weekend; they were also less sedentary. The influence of CIM on PA behaviour was particularly salient during the after-school period. Associations of CIM with PA varied by gender, and also by neighbourhood classification. CIM seemed to matter more in urban neighbourhoods for boys and suburban neighbourhoods for girls.

Conclusion
Our findings highlight the importance of independent mobility to multiple characteristics of children’s PA behaviour across the week. Furthermore, they emphasize that independent mobility-activity relationships need to be considered by gender and the type of neighbourhood independent mobility is offered in. Future work will focus on developing a predictive model of CIM that could be used to inform decision-making around alleviating barriers to CIM.
Bicycling crashes on streetcar (tram) or train tracks: mixed methods to identify prevention measures
Authors: Teschke Kay , Dennis Jessica , Reynolds Conor C. O. , Winters Meghan , Harris M. Anne
Published: September 2022

Background
Streetcar or train tracks in urban areas are difficult for bicyclists to negotiate and are a cause of crashes and injuries. This study used mixed methods to identify measures to prevent such crashes, by examining track-related crashes that resulted in injuries to cyclists, and obtaining information from the local transit agency and bike shops.

Methods
We compared personal, trip, and route infrastructure characteristics of 87 crashes directly involving streetcar or train tracks to 189 crashes in other circumstances in Toronto, Canada. We complemented this with engineering information about the rail systems, interviews of personnel at seven bike shops about advice they provide to customers, and width measurements of tires on commonly sold bikes.

Results
In our study, 32 % of injured cyclists had crashes that directly involved tracks. The vast majority resulted from the bike tire being caught in the rail flangeway (gap in the road surface alongside rails), often when cyclists made unplanned maneuvers to avoid a collision. Track crashes were more common on major city streets with parked cars and no bike infrastructure, with left turns at intersections, with hybrid, racing and city bikes, among less experienced and less frequent bicyclists, and among women. Commonly sold bikes typically had tire widths narrower than the smallest track flangeways. There were no track crashes in route sections where streetcars and trains had dedicated rights of way.

Conclusions
Given our results, prevention efforts might be directed at individual knowledge, bicycle tires, or route design, but their potential for success is likely to differ. Although it may be possible to reach a broader audience with continued advice about how to avoid track crashes, the persistence and frequency of these crashes and their unpredictable circumstances indicates that other solutions are needed. Using tires wider than streetcar or train flangeways could prevent some crashes, though there are other considerations that lead many cyclists to have narrower tires. To prevent the majority of track-involved injuries, route design measures including dedicated rail rights of way, cycle tracks (physically separated bike lanes), and protected intersections would be the best strategy.
Information seeking behaviors, attitudes, and choices of academic mathematicians
Authors: Gordon Ian D. , Cameron Brian , Chaves Debbie , Hutchinson Rebecca
Published: September 2022

Mathematicians in academic institutions utilize a variety of resources and strategies to seek, find, and use scholarly information and news. Using a sample of mathematicians, researchers surveyed 112 students and faculty at four Canadian university institutions to explore self-perceived success rates, resources consulted, databases used, use of social media, and citation management systems. Further, 12 follow-up interviews were completed with mathematicians to better interpret survey results, resulting information-seeking behaviors, choices, strategies, and feelings on keeping up to date with information needs. According to survey results, a minority of mathematicians (12.5 percent) acknowledged that they were successfully keeping up to date. However, a significant number of mathematicians (28.6 percent) indicated that they were unsuccessful and could do better in remaining current with information needs. Co-investigators, using qualitative analyses, identified four emergent themes related to remaining current: (1) The “slower pace of math” pervades all aspects of this discipline;” (2) There are “too many papers – and not enough time” to effectively search, evaluate, and read scholarly papers of interest; (3) Mathematicians collectively acknowledge that they are open to strategies and technologies where they “could do better” keeping up to date; and (4) Mathematicians have divided loyalties using databases when searching for information by means of “MathSciNet in a Google world.” Additional insights document how mathematicians are guided by mathematical peculiarities and discipline-specific practices. This study helps to shed light on opportunities for academic librarians to identify and meet mathematicians’ evolving information needs.

The Impact of Aggregate and Sectoral Fluctuations on Training Decisions
Authors: Caponi Vincenzo , Kayahan Cevat Burc , Plesca Miana
Published: September 2022

The
literature has not yet resolved whether the effect of macroeconomic fluctuations on training decisions
is positive or negative. On the one hand, the opportunity cost
to train is lower during downturns, and thus training should
be counter-cyclical. On the other hand, a positive shock may be related to the adoption of new
technologies and increased returns to skill, making
training incidence pro-cyclical. Using the Canadian panel of
Workplace and Employee Survey (WES), we document another
important channel at work: the relative position of
a sector also matters. We find not only that training moves
counter-cyclically with the aggregate business cycle
(more training during downturns), but also that the idiosyncratic sectoral shocks have a positive impact on training incidence (more training in sectors
doing relatively better). These findings help us better understand training decisions by
firms.
Interactions of Population, Health, and Place in a Spatially Explicit Heat Vulnerability Assessment
Authors: Rinner Claus
Published: September 2022

Urban sprawl and growth has experienced increased concern in geographic and environmental literature. Preceding the existence of robust frameworks found in regional and urban planning, as well as urban geography and economics, the spatial properties of allocation of urban land use are still far from being completely understood. This is largely due to the underlying complexity of the change found at spatial level of urban land use, merging social, economic and natural drivers. The spatial patterns formed, and the connectivity established among the different subsets of landuse types, becomes a complex network of interactions over time, helping to shape the structure of the city. The possibility to merge the configuration of land-use with complex networks may be assessed elegantly through graph theory. Nodes and edges can become abstract representations of typologies of space and are represented into a topological space of different land use types which traditionally share common spatial boundaries. Within a regional framework, the links between adjacent and neighboring urban land use types become better understood, by means of a Kamada-Kawai algorithm. This study uses land use in Lisbon over three years, 1990, 2000 and 2006, to develop a Kamada-Kawai graph interpretation of land-use as a result of neighboring power. The rapid change witnessed in Lisbon since the nineties, as well as the availability of CORINE Land Cover data in these three time stamps, permits a reflection on anthropogenic land-use change in urban and semi-urban areas in Portugal’s capital. This paper responds to (1) the structure and connectivity of urban land use over time, demonstrating that most of the agricultural land is stressed to transform to urban, gaining a central role in future. (2) Offer a systemic approach to land-use transitions generating what we call spatial memory, where land use change is often unpredictable over space, but becomes evident in a graph theory framework, and (3) advance in the geovisual understanding of spatial phenomena in land use transitions by means of graph theory. Thus, the structure of this combined method enables urban and landscape to have a better understanding of the spatial interaction of land-use types within the city, promoting an elegant solution to rapid geovisualization for land-use management in general.

Nigerian Children's Stories: A Cultural Perspective
Authors: Santyr Jenna
Published: September 2022

This paper explores the narrative construction of experience of Nigerian children through the stories they told while participating in a variation of Vivian Gussin Paley’s story-telling/storyacting exercise. Two theoretical approaches guided this research; narrative theory and the strength of children’s perspectives. Bruner’s theory of narrative construction is used as a theoretical framework for understanding children’s cultural participation. A sociology of childhood perspective is used to ground the research method and prioritize the child’s voice. Stories were collected from 3-5-year-old children attending a private school in Abuja, Nigeria. From the stories collected 6 story types were identified and 10 themes emerged within and between each story type. Of the 10 themes 4 of the themes were analyzed for cultural relevance and examples of cultural reproduction. The results of this study contribute to the ongoing research in children’s cultural participation and narrative construction of experience broadly, and to Nigerian children’s storytelling and perspectives, specifically.

It is substantiated that in the conditions of deepening institutional transformations in the natural resource sector of the national economy, which involve the reform of the natural resource management system, the diversification of ownership of natural resource and natural economic assets, the institutionalization of new organizational and legal forms of environmental protection and environmental economic entrepreneurship, the problem of improving the economic mechanism of nature management both at the national and local levels is being updated. It was revealed that the main prerequisite for the formation of a modern economic mechanism of nature use is the development of regulatory and legal support for the diversification of methods, tools and levers of regulatory influence on nature users. It has been established that the following are the main global determinants that must be taken into account when modernizing the budget-tax, monetary-credit, regulatory-permissive and advisory components of the economic mechanism of nature use: the European integration vector of Ukraine's development; modern global environmental protection architecture; the conjuncture of world commodity markets. Studies have shown that the main national determinant of the development of measures to improve the economic mechanism of nature management is the decentralization of power and the reform of local self-government, which provide for the transfer of a significant bundle of powers, in particular in the system of natural resource management and environmental protection, to the level of territorial communities. It is substantiated that when institutionalizing and differentiating the level of regulatory influence on nature users, it is necessary to take into account the specifics of the functioning of the public and corporate sectors and the household sector in the field of nature use. It was established that the list of main goals for improving the economic mechanism of nature management should include: increasing the level of capitalization of the economic development of natural resource potential and the use of ecosystem services; provision of integrated nature management and environmental protection in the public and corporate sectors, as well as in the household sector; increasing the level of social and environmental responsibility of business; creation of conditions for accelerated development of various types of bioenergy.
The Impact of Russian Aggression on Global and Ukrainian Food Security
Authors:   Kherson Polytechnic College of the National University «Odesa Polytechnic», Shepel Tetiana V.
Published: September 2022

The article analyzes the current level of food security of Ukraine in the conditions of the full-scale Russian-Ukrainian war. The state of the agrarian sector is defined and the dynamics of domestic acreage and harvesting areas under grain crops is analyzed. The state and dynamics of the food situation in the country are determined, taking into account the indicators of economic availability of food supply to the population of both Ukraine and the world. The geographical structure of the State’s export potential in relation to grain products directly concerning the countries of North Africa and Asia is determined. The main factors shaping the demand in the food industry sphere in both the national and the international markets are presented. The raw material orientation of Ukrainian exports along with vulnerability in foreign food markets are examined. The threatening realities forced the world community, the UN World Food Program, the WTO to react, because, although they declared their intentions to minimize risks at the global level, the legal mechanisms did not work in reality. The purpose of the article is to highlight the organizational-legal mechanisms for minimizing the negative consequences of Russian aggression in the field of food security. An analysis of the State Program for stimulating the economy to overcome the consequences of the full-scale Russian invasion of Ukraine has led to the conclusion that in terms of ensuring food security, the program itself is ineffective, since it does not provide organizational-legal instruments for achieving the goals declared. The main negative factors of the influence of Russian aggression on the food security of Ukraine and the world are generalized. It is revealed that the current situation with food in the country at war is close to a catastrophic one, since Ukrainian grain plays a significant role in the fight against hunger in the world. It is determined that the primary role for getting out of this situation should belong not only to our State, but also to the international community.

Authors:   O. M. Beketov National University of Urban Economy in Kharkiv, Biletskyi Ihor V.
Published: September 2022

The article examines the factors influencing the functioning of the residential real estate sector, the real estate market situation, the competitive situation, and the investment attractiveness of the sector. It is emphasized that the role of residential real estate performs several functions in society, in particular, it satisfies the need for housing, is an object of economic activity, and acts as a mechanism in the implementation of the social policy of the State. The main stages of the formation of the strategy for the development of the residential real estate segment are allocated, it is worth taking into account the behavior patterns and requests of potential customers, in particular: the segmentation of the primary residential real estate market; identification of factors affecting consumer behavior; modeling the process of making a purchase decision: awareness of needs; assessment of financial opportunities; collection and analysis of information; assessment and selection of real estate options; the decision to purchase property; conclusion of an agreement. It is determined that it is expedient to introduce civilized relations between real estate market participants, which is possible by promoting the implementation of legislative initiatives aimed at introducing a housing construction financing model using escrow accounts and ensuring the guarantee of investors' rights regarding real estate objects, which are under construction. The own structure of the residential real estate market and participants in the market process are proposed, according to which the activity of regional markets, which are divided into primary and secondary markets, are indicators of the activity of national residential real estate markets. The subjects of the primary market are investors, creditors, designers, builders, developers, project organizations, construction companies or organizations; concerning the secondary market - realtors, brokers, appraisers, sellers, tenants. In addition, groups of market participants are allocated, in particular group 1 – professional participants working on a commercial basis; group 2 – analysts on the residential real estate market; group 3 – insurance companies, notary offices, law firms, mortgage banks, land resources fund, property rights registration bodies, real estate assessment agencies, technical inventory bodies, judicial bodies.
Developing a Mechanism for Organizational-Economic Provision of the Management of the Enterprise’s Innovative Labor
Authors:   Simon Kuznets Kharkiv National University of Economics, Chernoivanova Hanna S.
Published: September 2022

The mechanism for organizational-economic provision of the management of innovative labor at enterprise requires the development of certain principles, functions, means, factors and management instruments. The study is aimed at developing such a mechanism for organizational-economic provision of the management of innovative labor at enterprise. Based on the results of research of the modern conception of management and the essence of the category of «mechanism», the mechanism for organizational-economic provision of the management of innovative labor at enterprise is methodologically substantiated together with the determination of the composition of its elements, which are grouped into four constituents. It is determined that it is necessary to distinguish four constituents: the organizational one, which includes organizational structures, regulations and instructions; the economic one, i. e. – norms, standards and incentives; the managerial one, based on both functional and target subsystems; the provisional one, where information provision (regulatory, legal, and regarding the state of the external environment) and resource provision (information, financial, material, technological, and human resources) are separately allocated. Such systematization allows to clearly define the constituents of the mechanism for organizational-economic provision of innovative labor, to differentiate the instruments and levers of the mechanism in accordance with the characteristics of the defined constituents. Based on the account and sequencing of the constituents of the organizational-economic provision of the management of innovative labor at enterprise regarding their interaction as parts of the relevant mechanism, the list and content of individual constituents are arranged. It is proved that the elements of the subsystem of provision of the organizational-economic mechanism include staff, principles, instruments, information, organizational structure of management in conjunction with approaches and methods of management, resources and standards. Based on the generalization, the content of all types of provision is determined, which are: economic, organizational, informational, functional, and resource.
The Analysis of Financial Support of Infrastructure Projects of Lviv
Authors:   Ivan Franko National University of Lviv, Vatamaniuk-Zelinska Uliana Z.
Published: September 2022

The goal is to analyze the current options of infrastructure projects financing in Lviv by establishing alternative sources of strengthening their financial support. The study analyses the volume of additional funds for community improvement at the expense of the State Fund of Regional Development and subventions from the State budget to local budgets in order to implement the measures for the socioeconomic development of individual territories. It was found that it is not realistic to finance completely the necessary infrastructure projects at the expense of budget funds. Especially for the needs of territorial communities with the possibility of being used by several communities simultaneously, a new attracting funds tool for the implementation of local investment projects – bonds of local development funds – is proposed. The alternative way to attract additional sources of funds, in particular, is the emission of bonds of local development funds. According to the international classification, bonds of local development funds belong to infrastructure bonds. It is noted that they exist already in the Ukrainian projects of loan capital legislative regulation. The determined bonds, if implemented, should advantageously differ from corporate bonds or local loan bonds due to: determining the direction of the intended use of borrowed funds; specific issuer – the Local Development Fund; relatively low risks for investors due to control of the budget cash flow for bonds repayment and receiving income on bonds. Their advantage is that, unlike local loan bonds, where issuers can only be city councils, the regional, district, settlement and village councils can also make decisions to issue the local development fund bonds. At the same time, attention is focused on the initiation of new businesses in the field of housing and communal services, in particular, through the creation of small enterprises that will provide important services to meet the needs of the territorial community on the basis of subcontract agreements. Local self-governed bodies have the opportunity to stimulate such business initiatives among the unemployed population that are available to work, providing space (premises) to newly created self-employed persons – entrepreneurs, compensating the rent as one-time payment from the Social Insurance Fund of Ukraine for the organization of entrepreneurial activities by unemployed citizens.
Supplier Companies in the Energy Market of Ukraine: Competition of Strategies
Authors:   Kharkіv National University of Radioelectronics, Kostіn Yurіy D. , Shvedkyi Volodymyr A. ,   Kharkіv National University of Radioelectronics
Published: September 2022

Liberalization of Ukrainian energy markets provides end consumers with the possibility to deliberately choose an energy supplier. Consequently, companies selling natural gas and electric energy have entered into a stiff competition. Since the specifics of the product sold in these markets do not imply opportunities for its improvement, the emphasis in competitive strategies was placed on price and improvement of customer services. There is a competition of strategies in the market: a large number of suppliers are trying to create and maintain competitive advantages in various ways. The purpose of the study is to allocate the basic competitive strategies that supplier companies adhere to in the Ukrainian energy market, compare the efficiency of these strategies, as well as determine further prospects for their implementation. Depending on what advantages the suppliers are guided by, the following ones were allocated: predatory strategy (the desire to obtain a monopoly rent); resource strategy (the desire to obtain a Ricardian rent); intellectual leadership strategy (the desire to obtain a Schumpeterian rent); grid strategy (the desire to obtain the rent of relationship); imitation-parasitic strategy (the desire to obtain a fraudulent rent). In its pure form, these strategies do not exist, as a rule, a symbiosis of several strategies is used. Although market leaders are companies with resource strategies (heirs to former natural monopolists), they are confronting an eager pressure on the part of the energy suppliers, focused on Schumpeterian rent and rent of relationship. Since innovations are available to all energy traders in customer services, those companies that become intelligent leaders in business models and processes are likely to win the competition. Both the predatory and the imitation-parasitic strategies cause numerous negative consequences for all market participants – consumers, generation, independent suppliers, the regulator, therefore they meet with significant resistance from these groups. Consequently, the potential for their use is limited.
Innovative Approaches to the Formation and Development of Managerial Competencies
Authors:   Kyiv National Economic University named after V. Hetman, Mylyanyk Ruslan V.
Published: September 2022

Modern approaches to the formation and development of managerial competencies should be oriented towards the main components of the model of competencies of managers (professional and corporate, managerial, transprofessional, digital competencies, personal efficiency of the leader), principles, goals of their development, and the company’s activities in general. In today’s extremely difficult conditions (crises, pandemics, wars), managers at their level of responsibility must implement and acquire new abilities to support the functioning of a company, structural unit, project, or line of activity, withstand new threats, ensure the sustainability of the company’s activities and resistance to crisis processes. The purpose of the article is to clarify the features and to systematize the effective innovative approaches to the formation and development of managerial competencies of specialists and managers. Improvement of managerial competencies should take place on the principle of continuity of education and self-development of the head, and the choice of approaches and tools for the development of competencies should be carried out in accordance with the needs and goals of the company. Important in today’s network-digital world is the use of a wide range of digital and online tools, the potential of the environment, and professional interaction. The means of forming managerial competency are: involvement in project activities, mentoring and/or consulting, coaching, action training, basket method, etc. From the point of view of the formation of managerial competencies, various methods of informal, informational training along with self-education are also extremely relevant and in demand. Moreover, in this case, informal training can be considered as a response to the need to acquire managerial competencies at different stages of building own managerial career, which can be experienced by people of different professions.

The article is concerned with a study of problems and directions of increasing the competitiveness of domestic producers in the face of global challenges. Based on the analysis of the level and dynamics of indices of globalization together with indices of globalization of trade in both Ukraine and the world, the main most important stages of globalization in Ukraine, including in international trade, are allocated. It is defined that in Ukraine, in contrast to the global tendency, changes in globalization processes occur more intensively. The key factors ensuring the growth of competitiveness of domestic exporters in the world market, the export structure of Ukraine’s international trade, including in the regional context, and the contribution of Ukraine’s regions to the export activities of the State are analyzed. It is proved that Russia’s full-scale military invasion will have the greatest impact on the export capabilities of enterprises in the east and south of Ukraine (where active hostilities are taking place), as well as those regions that border Russia and/or have already suffered large-scale destruction during the war (Kyiv, Sumy, and Chernihiv regions). Thus, the loss of Ukraine’s export potential, especially in commodity trade, taking into account export logistical problems, will be critical in 2022. The main instruments of the State support for Ukrainian exporting enterprises in the conditions of war are analyzed and measures to increase the competitiveness of domestic producers in modern turbulent conditions of development are proposed.
Mort et deuils en milieux scolaires. Regards pédagogiques, cliniques et socioculturels
Authors: Fawer Caputo Christine , Cherblanc Jacques
Published: September 2022

On a souvent du mal à associer la mort à l’école qu’on considère plutôt comme un lieu de vie, avec des jeunes en devenir. Pourtant, les établissements doivent parfois composer avec les drames et le deuil. Les textes rassemblés dans ce volume présentent les différentes situations auxquelles le monde scolaire doit parfois faire face (décès, maladies graves, expérience migratoire) et proposent des pistes d’accompagnement pour les acteurs éducatifs. Ces situations sont abordées en quatre volets. Agir quand un drame frappe l’école se demande comment agissent – ou devraient agir – les institutions en de telles circonstances. Décès d’un·e élève ou d’un·e enseignant·e, scolarité dans la maladie, gestion de l’absence et du deuil sont les situations privilégiées. Vivre et accompagner l’orphelinage en milieu scolaire évoque plusieurs facettes de la gestion du deuil de l’enfant scolarisé : outre plusieurs pistes de réflexion sur la condition d’orphelin, le rôle des enseignants et le vécu des élèves lors de ces événements est évoqué au travers d’enquêtes et témoignages. Deux contributions sont ensuite consacrées à un enjeu complexe qui interpelle différents types d’intervenants scolaires : Comprendre les deuils multiples des jeunes migrants scolarisés. Enfin, Éduquer et sensibiliser à la mort en milieu scolaire étudie la question de la mort comme tabou à dépasser : non seulement, comme le montrent les textes précédents, parce qu’elle appartient au cycle de la vie, mais encore parce que son évitement est aussi nuisible. Outre des études globales, plusieurs exemples concrets en vue de se réapproprier la pensée de ces moments-charnières sont présentés.
