Published: June 2021

Research of the Moscow cultural trade practiсes gives a concentrated picture of Russian trade, shows almost the entire range of national and foreign goods, reveals vivid types of entrepreneurs. Moscow was the largest logistics center and consumer of various goods, industrial raw material, and food. The bulk of the regional supplies were textiles, cereals, iron, milk, meat, leather, timber, etc. The Moscow merchants performed the functions of intermediaries in allRussian and foreign trade, linking distant markets. In the second half of the 19th century the traditional land and river trade routes were supplemented by railway roads. The top of the Moscow merchants was formed from the «nonresident» merchants, commoners and peasants who were able to achieve success at the expense of their abilities in the face of intense competition. The types of Moscow merchants are revealed by the example of the Eliseevs, Blandovs, Buryshkins, Filippovs. The study of the localization of urban trade made it possible to find out exactly where foreign goods were stored and sold. National goods entered the Kitay-gorod wholesale warehouses, from where the goods dispersed to the industrial enterprises, Moscow markets and shops. The city’s business and financial life was concentrated in Nikolskaya Street, Ilyinka and Varvarka. The trading opportunities of Moscow was supplemented by the Upper Trading Rows (now GUM), and shop-passages became one of the most popular types of retail space. The article describes the retail space of Moscow – Okhotny Ryad, Sukharevsky market, Smolensky market, Khitrovsky market, Boloto, as well as local markets and fairs. It is shown that in Moscow it was possible to see and to buy practically everything what Russia is rich in. Various types of old-fashioned shopping places and modern European shops coexisted in the urban space. Consideration of the Moscow trade as a holistic cultural phenomenon based on the historical cultural and civilizational approaches made it possible to reveal the main trends and features of the historical period.

The article presents an approach to advertising from the point of view of the formed advertising image. This approach allows us not only to identify the positioning features of one of the players in the banking services segment, but also to identify changes in the bank's market policy, which are reflected in communications with the consumer, in particular in the change of the advertising concept. The authors aim to analyze the transformation of the advertising image depending on the change in the advertising and communication concept of promoting the organization's services. The TV advertisement of VTB Bank was used as the material for the study. The basis for the selection was its placement on the main channels of Russian television, which confirms the orientation of the organization's offer to a wide consumer audience. The presented empirical material is described according to the author's model, which includes two bases. One of them takes into account the communicative type of the text and its focus on the recipient, the object of advertising or the recipient. The second basis is the generated advertising image associated with the characteristic, possible actions, or functions and the impression produced. The analysis showed that the type of advertising image can undergo significant (sometimes fundamental) changes. This transformation depends on the advertising and communication concept of the company. The created advertising image is determined by the specifics of the segment to which a particular service is addressed, the nature of the service itself, changes in the market situation and the communication policy of competitors. Taking into account the societyquick response to changing marketing factors allows the main subjects of the banking services market to create effective advertising images based on a variety of strategies and tactics that can attract different groups of customers. And the model proposed by the authors makes it possible to analyze and create an advertising product based on the motivational analysis and value behavior of consumers.
Methods and methodology of field research: open questions. Part 1
Authors:   Institute of psychology of the Russian academy of sciences, Tolochek Vladimir A.
Published: June 2021

For more than a century, the state of psychology has been characterized as a crisis (crisis of methodology). The present state of social objects, acting for us as subjects of research, is characterized by increasing dynamism, variability. Modernity – in its typical objects, the circumstances of conducting research work (NIR) by ordinary researchers – is more often left out of the field of attention of methodologists and historians of science. Changes in the conditions for conducting research in modern organizations, which are already growing into a serious scientific and scientific-practical problem, we conventionally call «methods and methodology of field research». This problem is still masked and greatly smoothed out by the dominance in the domestic psychology of research on the model of educational groups (schoolchildren, students), that is, in relatively simple conditions. But the range of research and practical tasks is muchwider; obvious shift to surveys of mainly educational groups – displacement into spaces of «accessibility and comfort» leads to erosion of discipline. The purpose of our research is a historical and theoretical analysis of the methodological, methodological and organizational aspects of research in a modern organization. Methods are an analysis of scientific literature, psychodiagnostics, reflection of the experience of scientific and practical work of research institutes in modern organizations. It is summarized that (1) the state of the discipline methodology, the understanding of its method, subject and technology of conducting relevant scientific research, explanations of the results obtained are interconnected; 2) even under strictly specified diagnostic conditions, if administrative resources are available, methodological and methodic problems are preserved and reproduced; 3) diagnostics issues in the space-time of modern organizations transfer these difficulties into the status of «problems square», «problems raised to the third power»; 4) one of the least developed issues of psychodiagnostics is the question of «situation»
Ideological attitudes of the leading russian political parties in the run – up to the 2021 elections
Authors:   NorthWest institute of management, RANEPA, Baranov Nikolai A.
Published: June 2021

The article characterizes the political and ideological discourse in Russia, which differs from the modern ideological tendencies of liberal-democratic countries and takes into account the peculiarities of the Russian socio-economic situation. The purpose of the work is to identify the main ideological priorities of the leading political parties of the Russian Federation that have their deputies in the regional and federal parliaments. Based on the political, cultural and constructivist approaches, the author reveals the peculiarities of the ideological perception of Russian political reality. Unlike Western countries, Russia is not characterized by the inclusion of postmodern values in the ideological palette. At the same time, there is an increase in the need for a conservative ideology with various variations – social conservatism, enlightened conservatism, liberal conservatism. The values of patriotism, nationalism, and sovereignty have become widely demanded. The analysis of the programs of the leading political parties preparing for the parliamentary elections of 2021 is carried out, which indicates the popularity of conservative and socialist values in their various syntheses, including nationalist and liberal. The success of the new political parties registered in 2020 is celebrated: New People, Green Alternative, For the Truth. Liberal values remain on the periphery of public consciousness and are not in demand in political practice. Most political parties are focused on solving social problems, which indicates the demand for socialist values. However, in some regions where environmental problems are not being addressed, there is a need to introduce an environmentally-oriented agenda in the main spheres of society, which is more the exception than the rule. Thus, there is a need to differentiate the political preferences of citizens, expressed in the adaptation of ideological paradigms to reality.

In 2018-2020, a finnish-russian cross-border cooperation project carried out a study, the main goal of which was to determine possible ways for the development of singleindustry towns (or monocities) in the Republic of Karelia on the basis of russian and foreign experiences. The research methodology included interviews with representatives of single-industry towns, a review of relevant literature, and an analysis of development plans and annual reports of single-industry towns in Russia, Finland, the United States and Canada. This study has found that karelian single-industry towns seldom apply branding as an instrument for economic development. At the same time, international experience demonstrates that branding is a widespread and effective tool for attracting investments, tourists and new residents to single-industry towns. This article presents several examples of successful branding of monocities and, on the basis of their experiences, proposes new ideas for creating a new brand of Segezha – a karelian monocity specializing in the production of paper and timber. In particular, it is proposed to make Segezha the founder and coordinator of the International association of pulp and paper cities, as well as to hold annually a number of original cultural events related to the topic of paper, such as a paper art festival, a paper mask carnival, the project “Segezha – the city where Buratino lives” and pageant “Miss valuable paper”. According to the authors, these events will be able to attract the attention of russian and foreign mass media to Segezha and to create a new attractive image for it, which should contribute to the city’s economic diversification and its further development.
The proactive and integrative environmental education as an element of education of civic responsibility and subjectivity of a teenager
Authors:   Moscow state psychological and pedagogical university, Kamnev Alexander N.
Published: June 2021

The article examines the social and pedagogical foundations of the proactive and integrative environmental education and upbringing. It is shown that traditional secondary and higher education not only underwent a systemic crisis, but also largely lost the components of civic, moral, ethical, ecological and spiritual education. In this regard, at the end of the last century, there was a proposal from the western pedagogical school to create an education system for sustainable development. This education was based on the activation of experiential (experience and practice-oriented practiceoriented), in other words - empirical education. At the same time, education cannot be effective using mainly the principles of empirical pedagogy. Education must be balanced. It must have both deep didactic and empirical approaches. Taking into account the balanced traditions of the russian school and the new proposals of the western school, the author of the article tried to create and test their own modified model of upbringing and education. This model, to a greater extent, was created for the system of additional education, in particular, for children's camps. Using the pedagogical approaches of this model in the camp, it is possible to fill those gaps in knowledge and upbringing that in modern conditions cannot be given at school. The work describes the history of the formation of this pedagogical direction in Russia. The definition of active environmental education is given. A comparison is made with the empirical education and teaching of the western pedagogical model. Demonstrated many years of experience in the programs of the proactive and integrative environmental education and upbringing "Leisure and Learning with Pleasure" on the basis of various camps. Elements of programs are shown. An example of a lesson in education of civic responsibility and subjectivity of a teenager is given. Shows the value of knowledge of the language, history of the country and understanding of the importance of education at different stages of development of Russia.

Currently, rural school faces many difficulties both within its system and outside (unfavorable challenges of the external society), which complicate the organization of the educational process. Accordingly, the atmosphere of psychological comfort for all subjects of educational activity in rural schools decreases. The purpose of the study is to diagnose, record and describe the state of psychological comfort in the education of a modern rural school. The leading method for collecting primary empirical information was the survey method conducted in the format of a Google questionnaire (a questionnaire for representatives of the administration of an educational organization; a questionnaire for a teacher; a questionnaire for primary and high school students; a questionnaire for parents). In the Kirov region, rural and urban schools participated in the study: totally 338 responses to the questionnaire were received, of which 144 are students, 111 parents, 71 teachers and 12 administrations. The article presents the author's interpretation of the concept «psychological comfort of education in rural school». The diagnostics was carried out and the integral coefficient of psychological comfort of education in rural school was determined, measured in three directions: an integral indicator of the attitude to the educational environment; selection of significant characteristics of the educational environment and the index of satisfaction with them; index of psychological safety of the educational environment of the school. In general, the integral coefficient is characterized by a high level. The materials of the article can be used to diagnose the psychological comfort of the both urban and rural schools. Further research will be aimed at developing a concept and defining pedagogical mechanisms for improving the characteristics of the psychological comfort of education in rural schools.

The article presents the results of microseismic mapping of Chaykinskaya area using standard seismic gathers. Offsets more than 2 km and time interval from 3.5 s and, i.e. after the registration of primary artificial waves are used. Increasing of microseisms intensity (0-30 Hz) compared to intervals before first brakes was revealed. The anomaly of microseismic noise at the elevation in the northeastern part of the area confirmed by an inheritance of the anomaly on two parallel profiles and a profile crossing them was identified. This anomaly correlates in the area with a trap detected by the aero-gamma-spectrometry method. The investigation results of the microseismic emission can be used in an integrated interpretation of geophysical data in oil and gas exploration.

Published: June 2021

Purpose The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic has necessitated a redistribution of resources to meet hospitals’ service needs. This study investigated the impact of COVID-19 on a regional trauma center in South Korea. Methods We retrospectively reviewed cases of polytrauma at a single regional trauma center in South Korea between January 20 and September 30, 2020 (the COVID-19 period) and compared them to cases reported during the same time frame (January 20 to September 30) between 2016 and 2019 (the pre-COVID-19 period). The primary outcome was in-hospital mortality, and secondary outcomes included the number of daily admissions, hospital length of stay (LOS), and intensive care unit (ICU) LOS. Results The mean number of daily admissions decreased by 15% during the COVID-19 period (4.0±2.0 vs. 4.7±2.2, p=0.010). There was no difference in mechanisms of injury between the two periods. For patients admitted during the COVID-19 period, the hospital LOS was significantly shorter (10 days [interquartile range (IQR) 4–19 days] vs. 16 days [IQR 8–28 days], p<0.001); however, no significant differences in ICU LOS and mortality were found. Conclusions The observations at Regional Trauma Center, Pusan National University Hospital corroborate anecdotal reports that there has been a decline in the number of patients admitted to hospitals during the COVID-19 period. In addition, patients admitted during the COVID-19 pandemic had a significantly shorter hospital LOS than those admitted before the COVID-19 pandemic. These preliminary data warrant validation in larger, multi-center studies.

Published: June 2021

Purpose We analyzed the characteristics and outcomes of patients with bicycle-related injuries at a regional trauma center in northern Gyeonggi Province as a first step toward the development of improved prevention measures and treatments. Methods The records of 239 patients who were injured in different types of bicycle-related accidents and transported to a single regional trauma center between January 2017 and December 2018 were examined. This retrospective single-center study used data from the Korea Trauma Database. Results In total, 239 patients experienced bicycle-related accidents, most of whom were males (204, 85.4%), and 46.9% of the accidents were on roads for automobiles. Forty patients (16.7%) had an Injury Severity Score (ISS) of 16 or more. There were 125 patients (52.3%) with head/neck/face injuries, 97 patients (40.6%) with injuries to the extremities, 59 patients (24.7%) with chest injuries, and 21 patients (8.8%) with abdominal injuries. Patients who had head/neck/face injuries and an Abbreviated Injury Score (AIS) ≥3 were more likely to experience severe trauma (ISS ≥16). In addition, only 13 of 125 patients (10.4%) with head/neck/face injuries were wearing helmets, and patients with injuries in this region who were not wearing helmets had a 3.9-fold increased odds ratio of severe injury (AIS ≥2). Conclusions We suggest that comprehensive accident prevention measures, including safety training and expansion of safety facilities, should be implemented at the governmental level, and that helmet wearing should be more strictly enforced to prevent injuries to the head, neck, and face.

Автоматизована система утилізації твердих відходів
Authors: Сягровський О. , Мелкумян К.
Published: June 2021

У статті розглядається така проблема сьогодення як утилізація твердих відходів. Більшість сфер промисловості, економіки, інфраструктури та інших галузей переходять на етап залучення автоматизованих систем, що значно покращує ефективність та зменшує ризики виникнення помилок. Проблема, яка описана в даній статті, має ряд обме-жень, що накладаються на обрання виду утилізації сміття та способу залучення автоматизованих систем. Основними обмеженнями є мінімальний вплив утилізації на навколишнє середовище, близькість до населених пунктів задля зменшення транспортних витрат та мінімально можлива вартість проекту. На основі рівності балансу річних відходів запропоновано підхід створення передумов до виробництва замкненого циклу. Задля більш якісного проектування автоматизованої системи утилізації сміття було зроблено аналіз існуючих рішень. Одне з найпоширеніших – побудова санітарного полігону – було описано в цій статті. Цей підхід має доволі низьку собівартість, є легким для побудови та підтримки його роботи. Також було розглянуто недоліки цієї системи, наприклад, цей підхід дуже згубно діє нанавколишнє середовище і є нестійким до критичних ситуацій. Проаналізувавши вищезазначені проблеми та обмеження, запропоновано рішення побудови спеціального полігону з використанням датчиків моніторингу навколишнього середовища для збору необхідної інформації та правильного реагування на неї. Для побудови полігону використовуються лише недорогі екологічні матеріали, що зменшує його собівартість. Дана система включає в себе можливість участі у економіці замкненого циклу, адже виділені речовини можуть бути використані у вигляді добрив, аотримана сировина – у вигляді вторинної сировини. Також отримана з датчиків інформація надсилається до мережі «розумного» міста для інформування населення.

Geo-Strategic Considerations on Kondratieff Cycles, Globalization and Wars
Authors: Taucsh A.
Published: June 2021

Adherents of the Marxian and other political economy schools that are the alternatives to the now dominating mainstream always insisted that the contradictions of global capitalism only exacerbate over time if markets are left to themselves. The author’s analysis is based on the use of modern statistical methods. In addition to common perceptions it adds the following proposal: there are serious cyclical fluctuations of the capitalist system on a global scale. Economic ups and downs are accompanied by global political and military-strategic development cycles of public systems. Finally, there is a striking similarity in the logic of globalization of the second half of XIX century and the globalization of the modern era. At the beginning of the XX century some major economists, such as R. Luxembourg and O. Bauer noted the increasing instability of the international order and saw on the horizon dark clouds of wars inside the capitalist system (First and Second World Wars). In the light of the author’s analysis a sad conclusion is made that we are facing equally gloomy times if we fail to adjust the mad logic called modern globalization.
Information and Communication Component of Modern Entrepreneurship
Authors: Olevsky G.
Published: June 2021

The extent of involvement of small business to the World Wide Web depends not only on the degree of activity of the entrepreneurs themselves, but also on the level of development of a virtual market space. Statistics show that in the European Union, for example, businessmen from countries just emerging from the inertia of the machine production are still fairly sluggish in the development of ICT. In the context of the problems of small business in general and of the European entrepreneurship, in particular, it can be argued that virtually oriented entrepreneurs need now a strong support at both the national and supra-national levels.
Effects of European Debt Crisis and Prospects of Euro Zone
Authors: Kondratov D.
Published: June 2021

The European economy is just recovering after the crisis and is facing numerous problems that prevent the transition to a sustainable economic growth. Among the most significant problems are massive fiscal deficits and public debt. This imposes the risks of default and can cause a collapse of national economies’ encouragement programs. Large-scale foreign trade imbalances threaten the already shaky stability of the global monetary and financial system. Huge amounts of speculative capital contribute to the formation of price bubbles in the domestic and international stock and commodity markets. It is obvious that these difficulties are systemic by their nature. In order to overcome them the leading European states have to undertake decisive and concerted measures for the restructuring of the existing economic order. An understanding of the respective need is currently declared at the highest political level, including the European Central Bank and G20. In practice, however, the efforts so far are concentrated mainly on the soft and cautious reform of the regulation of financial markets in the countries of the Eurozone. Implementation of the steps to create a more reliable and secure European financial and economic architecture is restrained by dramatic differences in the interests of the leading countries. According to most analysts, efforts to overcome this are likely to fail in the coming years. The failure to address fundamental problems of the financial crisis increases the uncertainty of the development of the European economy and creates the preconditions for new crisis situations.
Systemic Crisis of Euro-zone: Economics vs Politics
Authors: Varnavskii V.
Published: June 2021

The main problem of the Euro-zone is not even the financial crisis combusted and not sovereign debts, but the absence of viable ideas how to preserve the institutional structure, managerial system and separation of powers between Brussels and national governments, which are designed in the Maastricht Treaty. No personalities are seen on the EU political landscape who could offer a realistic way of the crisis recovery, without economic and social shocks. European society, including its educated part, the elites, doesn't believe either in modern leaders, or in tools of crisis recovery suggested by them. It was illustrated dramatically by presidential and parliamentary elections in France, regional elections in Germany. The financial and institutional reforms, worked out poorly and half-estimated, may be continued, but only as long as the economy stands political experiments on itself. Obviously, there is only one real alternative – whether a collapse of the Euro-zone, or a radical, tangible integration, working out and adoption of a Roadmap for some EU-countries' movement towards the United States of Europe creation on the space of viable, effective, competitive national economies, ready to sacrifice their sovereignty.

As the article points, one of the main manifestations of this trend can be seen in the transformation of global innovation strategies of transnational corporations. The world’s largest TNCs, mostly based in the industrial nations, have begun to transfer growing segments and parts of their R&D programs to the developing countries in order to take advantage of their increased research capacity. As a result, the nature of the projects being implemented there by the TNCs is changing. Historically, the TNCs’ local R&D activities were of adaptive nature. Namely, the stress was made on modification of the products and services offered by the TNCS globally to the specifics of local markets. Currently, a growing number of transnational corporations are implementing the large-scale programs in the developing countries aimed at designing new types of products, including those targeted at the low-income groups of consumers that make up the bulk of the population in developing countries.

Psoriasis is a chronic inflammatory disease of the skin and joints, autoimmune, which affects about 125 million people worldwide, and is associated with several comorbidities. The dietary pattern can influence, both in the prevention, treatment or cause of the disease, therefore, this integrative review sought to understand the relationship between food and psoriasis, as well as the influence and interaction of nutrients with it. A survey was carried out in the scientific literature regarding the relationship between psoriasis and food, which obtained studies about the reduction or increase of the disease severity. Therefore, it can be observed that some foods have a triggering action, such as pepper and gluten, and others collaborate for a clinical improvement, such as fish and olive oil, foods that are present in a Mediterranean diet. Thus, individualized nutritional care for psoriasis patients is important.

Megacities are complex systems facing the challenges of overpopulation, poor urban design and planning, poor mobility and public transport, poor governance, climate change issues, poor sewerage and water infrastructure, waste and health issues, and unemployment. Smart cities have emerged to address these challenges by making the best use of space and resources for the benefit of citizens. A smart city model views the city as a complex adaptive system consisting of services, resources, and citizens that learn through interaction and change in both the spatial and temporal domains. The characteristics of dynamic development and complexity are key issues for city planners that require a new systematic and modeling approach. Multiscale modeling (MM) is an approach that can be used to better understand complex adaptive systems. The MM aims to solve complex problems at different scales, i.e., micro, meso, and macro, to improve system efficiency and mitigate computational complexity and cost. In this paper, we present an overview of MM in smart cities. First, this study discusses megacities, their current challenges, and their emergence to smart cities. Then, we discuss the need of MM in smart cities and its emerging applications. Finally, the study highlights current challenges and future directions related to MM in smart cities, which provide a roadmap for the optimized operation of smart city systems.

The corrugated board packaging industry is increasingly using advanced numerical tools to design and estimate the load capacity of its products. That is why numerical analyzes are becoming a common standard in this branch of manufacturing. Such trend causes either the use of advanced computational models that take into account the full 3D geometry of the flat and wavy layers of corrugated board, or the use of homogenization techniques to simplify the numerical model. The article presents theoretical considerations that extend the numerical homogenization technique already presented in our previous work. The proposed here homogenization procedure also takes into account the creasing and / or perforation of corrugated board, i.e. processes that undoubtedly weaken the stiffness and strength of the corrugated board locally. However, it is not always easy to estimate how exactly these processes affect the bending or torsional stiffness. What is known for sure is that the degradation of stiffness depends, among other things, on the type of cut, its shape, the depth of creasing, as well as their position or direction in relation to the corrugation direction. The method proposed here can be successfully applied to model smeared degradation in a finite element or to define degraded interface stiffnesses on a crease line or a perforation line.
Advanced LabVIEW Applications Aimed for the Acquisition, Processing and Classification of the Electroencephalographic Signals Used in a Brain-Computer Interface System
Authors: Rușanu Oana Andreea
Published: June 2021

This paper proposes several LabVIEW applications to accomplish the data acquisition, processing, features extraction and real-time classification of the electroencephalographic (EEG) signal detected by the embedded sensor of the NeuroSky Mindwave Mobile headset. The LabVIEW applications are aimed at the implementation of a Brain-Computer Interface system, which is necessary to people with neuromotor disabilities. It is analyzed a novel approach regarding the preparation and automatic generation of the EEG dataset by identifying the most relevant multiple mixtures between selected EEG rhythms (both time and frequency domains of raw signal, delta, theta, alpha, beta, gamma) and extracted statistical features (mean, median, standard deviation, route mean square, Kurtosis coefficient and others). The acquired raw EEG signal is processed and segmented into temporal sequences corresponding to the detection of the multiple voluntary eye-blinks EEG patterns. The main LabVIEW application accomplished the optimal real-time artificial neural networks techniques for the classification of the EEG temporal sequences corresponding to the four states: 0 - No Eye-Blink Detected; 1 - One Eye-Blink Detected; 2 – Two Eye-Blinks Detected and 3 – Three Eye-Blinks Detected. Nevertheless, the application can be used to classify other EEG patterns corresponding to different cognitive tasks, since the whole functionality and working principle could estimate the labels associated with various classes.
Emergence and Algorithmic Information Dynamics of Systems and Observers
Authors: Abrahão Felipe S. , Zenil Hector
Published: June 2021

Previous work has shown that perturbation analysis in algorithmic information dynamics can uncover generative causal processes of finite objects and quantify each of its element's information contribution to computably constructing the objects. One of the challenges for defining emergence is that the dependency on the observer's previous knowledge may cause a phenomenon to present itself as emergent for one observer at the same time that reducible for another observer. Thus, in order to quantify emergence of algorithmic information in computable generative processes, perturbation analyses may inherit such a problem of the dependency on the observer's previous formal knowledge. In this sense, by formalizing the act of observing as mutual perturbations, the emergence of algorithmic information becomes invariant, minimal, and robust to information costs and distortions, while it indeed depends on the observer. Then, we demonstrate that the unbounded increase of emergent algorithmic information implies asymptotically observer-independent emergence, which eventually overcomes any formal theory that any observer might devise. In addition, we discuss weak and strong emergence and analyze the concepts of observer-dependent emergence and asymptotically observer-independent emergence found in previous definitions and models in the literature of deterministic dynamical and computable systems.
