Published: May 2023

The purposeful destruction and destruction of important large industrial, infrastructural, and logistical facilities of civilian and military importance has become one of the key tactical goals of military aggression by the Russian Federation in relation to Ukraine, which is manifested in the constant massive rocket and air strikes on these objects, persistent attempts to seize industrial cities in the east of the country. This tactic of the occupiers is aimed at quick undermining the country's economic potential and depriving it of its ability to resist aggression effectively and for a long time. In addition, it pursues the goal of creating a humanitarian disaster, since enterprises whose activities are directly related to the livelihood of civilians are subject to destruction the population of cities and the country in general. Ukraine's economy has suffered significant losses since the beginning of the war. The article analyzes losses by sector of the Ukrainian economy after a year of full-scale invasion. The structure of losses by the most affected regions of Ukraine was studied. The amount of necessary funds for restoration and reconstruction by economic sectors and regions of the country was analyzed. The main actions of the government of Ukraine to restore the economy and the need to achieve the goals are considered. Ways of cooperation with international partners to cover general assessment needs in the process of recovery of Ukraine's economy were explored, the role of international financial organizations was considered. Attention was drawn to the fact that private sector investments will play a decisive role in overcoming the consequences of the war and post-war reconstruction. The development of relevant priority sectors and industries should take place with the active participation of the state on the basis of implementation concepts of modern state entrepreneurship. Based on the listed strategic priorities of the country's development, sectoral priorities should be determined for the anticipatory development of certain branches and industries with providing appropriate state aid both for research and development and for the organization of production.

The modern development of Ukraine's foreign economic sphere is characterized by a significant reduction in export volumes, an inefficient commodity structure of export-import operations, and the absence of real levers of state influence on its development. Domestic business entities, like the entire economy of Ukraine as a whole, are actually placed in conditions of self-survival, i.e. ensuring viability in the conditions of martial law, by narrowing the opportunities for further development. In such conditions, the issue of optimization of all types of activity, costs, and resources of the enterprise, regardless of the direction of its activity, becomes especially important, which determines the use of a logistic approach in the national economic system and the enterprise management system. At the same time, logistics is considered in two aspects: managerial and technological. When organizing the management of international business, the promotion of material flow and ensuring sales is a subject of organizational management. When improving the technologies of transportation, warehousing, information support, planning and control, the costs for the effective functioning of each of these services are optimized, the optimization affects the items of the technological process. Today, it is impossible not to take into account such an important factor in the development of the world economy as globalization, which contributed to the transition from traditional logistics to international logistics. In the foreign economic sphere, the principles, methods, and tools of logistics in general will not be used effectively enough due to the failure to take into account the specifics and trends of the development of target foreign markets, the specifics of concluding and implementing foreign economic contracts, and the specifics of state regulation of export-import operations. Therefore, the logistics system in the field of international business is formed on the basis of cross-border cooperation and takes into account not only the potential of business entities in the target foreign markets, but also the peculiarities and trends of the national and global market development.

The dependence of the positive climate in the organization and the high return of employees on the culture of communication and communication was determined. It is noted that the role of communication culture in the organization of modern management has an impact on some key indicators of business efficiency and has a great competitive advantage and is more effective in creating stability and continuity of business. The need to introduce modern technologies into the communications system for effective management of a modern office has been theoretically proven. It was determined that communications in enterprise management connect management functions and have a direct impact on the results of their implementation. It has been proven that in the conditions of personnel migration, it is impossible to do without the rapid introduction of modern technologies and to use all the assets of IT technologies to preserve the existing office staff and improve communication processes. The necessity of introducing new modern types of communications, based on the realization that the future of the modern office will be built on remote teams and the development of mobile business communications, with the aim of attracting young personnel from different countries of the world, is substantiated. It is this model of personnel selection, without reference to the country where the office is located, that will lead to increased competition among personnel. The development and implementation of technologies is noted as one of the effective elements of improving the working conditions of the staff. The necessity of automating business processes as the main aspect of establishing communications inherent in the modern world has been proven.

Published: May 2023

The article is devoted to the study of the role and importance of rural (green) tourism in the territorial development of Ukraine. It is stated that the strategic development of a country is directly dependent on the development of its individual territories, industries and economic sectors that are being developed there. One of the promising areas of sustainable development of territories is rural (green) tourism, which can be considered an alternative direction of socio-economic development of the territories of a country with an agricultural specialization, such as Ukraine. Therefore, the issue of territorial development of Ukraine based on the use of such economic activity as rural (green) tourism is extremely relevant and requires detailed study. During the study, it has been established that rural (green) tourism is a specialized type of economic, social and cultural activity, which includes elements of organized and unorganized recreation for the purpose of familiarizing people with the area, its features, nature, culture, lifestyle, population's values, etc. The development of rural (green) tourism in Ukraine has been analyzed. The main areas of activity in rural (green) tourism are delineated. The prerequisites for the development of rural (green) tourism in Ukraine are determined. The article identifies obstacles that impede the development of rural (green) tourism in Ukraine. In the conclusion, proposals for the further development of rural (green) tourism in Ukraine have been presented. It is summarized that the diversity of the natural and agricultural potential of the regions, the presence of cultural and historical landmarks of world significance and a diversified business environment contribute to the development of rural (green) tourism in Ukraine. In its turn, the development of rural (green) tourism and entrepreneurial activity in this area has a positive impact on the socio-economic development of rural areas. Nevertheless, it is currently necessary to implement a systematic approach to the development of rural (green) tourism based on cluster and network regulatory mechanisms, transparency of the conditions for obtaining financial and investment support from the state and support for business initiatives that have a commercial or social impact.

The article summarizes the scientific and practical approaches to implementing marketing strategies for regional tourism development and identifies and characterizes their essential innovative tools. Territorial marketing strategies have recently become a topical subject of scientific research and a popular tool for promoting regions and increasing their competitiveness. Regional development marketing strategies are initiatives aimed at promoting and improving a specific region's economic and social conditions. The application of such elements of regional tourism development marketing strategies as niche tourism, digital platforms, and storytelling is substantiated. A niche tourism strategy targets specific market segments, such as adventure tourism, ecotourism, or cultural tourism. Tourism regions can use digital platforms to interact with visitors and collect data about their preferences and behavior. By analyzing this data, you can better understand your target market and develop more effective marketing strategies. Storytelling is a marketing strategy because people are more likely to be impressed by a place if they can emotionally connect with it. By creating and sharing stories about the region, its people, and its culture, you can connect emotionally with potential visitors and increase their likelihood of coming. The use of the described marketing tools within the strategies of niche tourism, digital platforms, and storytelling will make it possible shortly, after guaranteeing the safety of tourism in Ukraine, to ensure the rapid development of such promising types and directions of tourism as sustainable and ecological, adventure, cultural, health and healing tourism, and as well as immersive (virtual) and technological tourism. The proposed innovative marketing tools can be used to develop effective strategies for developing tourism at the regional level. However, the effectiveness of these strategies may vary depending on the context and regional characteristics. Implementing marketing strategies will become especially important in Ukraine after the war's end, but it is necessary to develop such strategies using innovative marketing tools now.

Published: May 2023

The article examines the economic potential of the region as a stimulator of intensification of development in the conditions of the digital economy. Based on a comprehensive study of approaches to understanding the essence of concepts such as potential, economic potential, and the economic potential of the region, a large number of diverse views on these definitions were revealed, among which four leading ones were singled out: resource, performance, target, and system, and a thorough analysis of them was carried out, with the main essence and content are clarified, advantages and disadvantages are revealed. Essential features were established and it was found that the economic potential of regions is defined as a set of existing resources, which comes down to replacing the category "potential" with such categories as "resources", "investments", etc., while if the meaning of the concept is reduced only to resource characteristics, without taking into account other aspects of this concept and distinguishing its special features, then the boundaries between the differences between economic definitions are blurred and their substitution occurs. The economic potential of the region is considered as the aggregate ability of spheres of economic activity, which characterizes only one of its important aspects, which, however, is not the only one. And also, the economic potential of the region is considered the result of both economic and production relations between economic entities of a certain territory, that is, it should be presented in relation to the peculiarities of production relations of each economic formation that appear between individual regional economic entities . The expediency of applying the integration approach in order to combine all the main elements of the above-mentioned views and eliminate their shortcomings is substantiated, as a result of which the economic potential of the region should be understood as a system of such components as resources and opportunities, as well as the connections between them, which are attracted by it in order to achieve the set goals , adaptation to external manifestations and fruitful results.

Published: May 2023

The article analyzes the rating of Ukraine according to the Global Cryptocurrency Adoption Index. It is noted that out of the TOP-20 countries in the rating, there are ten countries with below-average income, eight countries with above-average income and two countries with high income. This trend demonstrates the dominance of developing markets. The dynamics of the bitcoin and USD exchange rate are analyzed. Forecasting of the bitcoin exchange rate was carried out using the exponential smoothing method, because this method showed the smallest mean absolute error. The forecast results show the growth of the bitcoin rate. The interdependence between exchange rate of bitcoin cryptocurrency and pairs of the most influential world currencies, world prices for precious metals and securities rates on the largest stock exchanges is determined using correlation-regression analysis. The advantages of using cryptocurrencies have been identified, including high speed of transactions, reduction of the number of intermediaries and low fees. Also defined the threatening nature of the development of the crypto-industry for the economic potential of the state, taking into accountavailable withcurrent global challenges such as cyber-attacks and fraud and data theft. Real fraud schemes in the field of cryptocirculation are considered. The main challenges to the functioning of the cryptocurrency industry are analyzed, including volatility, uncertainty, risk of loss, insecurity of owners, lack of guarantees, large number of cryptocurrencies, technical risk, fraud and data theft. It is noted that without determining the clear legal status of cryptocurrencies in the country, it is impossible to resolve the legal, accounting and tax consequences of these transactions. It was determined that for the legal circulation of cryptocurrencies, the creation of a financial institution or a special state body, which should exercise control over the circulation of cryptocurrencies, must be ensured as a minimum; introduction of taxation for companies whose activities are related to the crypto industry; establishing the obligation of users to declare their income and profits from income regarding crypto-assets in the national currency, etc.
SUPPORTING THE FINANCIAL SECURITY OF ENTERPRISES OF AGRICULTURAL BUSINESS DURING THE PERIOD OF THEIR ADAPTATION TO MODERN REALITIES

Published: May 2023

The article is devoted the main problems and factors affecting the financial security of agrarian business enterprises, which they began to face during the war against Russia. It has been established that agricultural enterprises are more vulnerable to the negative impact of war conditions regarding the deterioration or loss of their financial security. If production enterprises of other branches of Ukrainian economy can be relocated to safer regions of the country and work there more or less profitably, agricultural enterprises cannot take such actions. Agricultural land can in no way be relocated or protected from mining, temporary annexation, or occupation. Already since the beginning of the war in 2014, Ukraine has lost a certain part of agricultural land in the occupied territories of Luhansk and Donetsk regions, Crimea. In 2022, the sown areas of our farmers decreased by 25% of all arable land participating in sowing campaigns. Accordingly, the production and economic activity of enterprises was significantly worsened or completely lost as a result, for example, in Sumy, Chernihiv, Kharkiv and in most of the southern regions of Ukraine. The war has already caused huge losses to agriculture due to the destruction of agricultural infrastructure, destruction and damage to property, finished products, animals, etc. This is especially felt for small and medium-sized agrarian businesses. After the research, specific directions of adaptation of agrarian business enterprises were proposed to support their financial security during the war. Among them, the most important now is the provision of the spring sowing campaign of 2023 through financial support from the state and international financial institutions. Therefore, now the most urgent issue is the development of bank lending to the agricultural sector of Ukraine through interacting financial mechanisms both from the state and banking institutions. Among them, it is necessary to expand existing bank crediting programs for the agrarian sector and introduce new ones. Together, all this will provide an opportunity to develop the agricultural sector of the Ukrainian economy and to recreate a favorable investment climate in it.

The analysis of scientific and practical publications on the issue of the development of collective means of accommodation of small forms shows that researchers, as a rule, distinguish general factors of the development of the hotel industry, such as the standard of living of the population, the development of tourism, the deficit of the balance of payments, state regulation, the development of transport, new technologies, import of services. The hotel industry not only contributes to the performance of the set of functions of tourism, but also creates the prerequisites for their development and enrichment of content. The development of the hotel industry largely determines the availability of tourist resources, which is especially relevant for some categories of the population (youth, pensioners, people with disabilities, low-income families, etc.). requires a more detailed study of the conditions and prospects for their development. The article highlights different levels of influence of factors and examines their mutual influence for the segment of small hotels. The main service produced by the tourism industry is a tourist package or tourist product, which means the right to a tour intended for the tourist. In turn, the tour is considered as a complex of services for accommodation, transportation, food for tourists, excursion services, as well as the services of guides-translators and others, provided depending on the goals of the trip, services. The hospitality accommodation sector accounts for up to 65% of employment and 68% of travel and tourism revenue, and since 2000, the global hotel industry has grown by 2.8% annually. According to experts, accommodation facilities are a «miniature tourism industry» because they provide complex, comprehensive services. From a general human point of view, hospitality should satisfy at least the primary needs of a person for food, rest and sleep. Traditionally, accommodation, food, transfer (transportation), recreation are distinguished as the main elements of the field of hospitality. In our opinion, the State Classifier of Products and Services is the most complete from the point of view of accounting for the types of accommodations based on their ability to satisfy the special goals of travelers.

O estudo objetivou conhecer a vivência de mulheres durante o processo de parturição. Trata-se de uma pesquisa qualitativa, exploratória-descritiva, desenvolvida com doze puérperas em um município do extremo oeste de Santa Catarina. A coleta de dados aconteceu por entrevista semiestruturada, gravada, e posteriormente transcrita na íntegra. Para análise dos dados utilizou-se a análise de conteúdo do tipo temática, proposta por Minayo. Algumas participantes associam a vivência do parto a ansiedade, medo e angústia, somados à preocupação com o bem-estar do bebê e com o novo papel a ser assumido. A falta de privacidade e de orientações foi citada como aspecto negativo, evidenciando-se a importância da escuta, do acolhimento e humanização. O processo de parturição é vivenciado de forma particular por cada mulher, e uma compreensão mais abrangente desse processo contribui para (re)pensar estratégias de humanização e de mudanças na dinâmica do atendimento em ambiente hospitalar, com vistas ao protagonismo das parturientes.
Race-ethnicity and the big-fish-little-pond effect in the United States
Authors: Lesick Tara L. , Zell Ethan
Published: May 2023

According to research on the big-fish-little-pond effect, students with a high rank in a low rank school have more favorable self-evaluations than students with a low rank in a high rank school. We examined whether this effect extends to a racial-ethnic context. Black and White adults in the United States completed a social perception test and were told that they had a high rank in a racial group that performed poorly or a low rank in a racial group that performed well. Black participants identified more strongly with their racial group than White participants. However, the big-fish-little-pond effect occurred and was similar in size across Black and White participants. These results suggest that the big-fish-little-pond effect generalizes to a racial-ethnic context and replicates across majority and minority group members.
Equivalence Problems in Translating Ibn (Son) and Bint (Daughter) Fixed Expressions to Arabic and English
Authors: Al-Jarf Reima
Published: May 2023

Son and daughter metaphorical expressions are common in general as well as technical languages. This study explores the similarities and differences between English and Arabic ibn (son) and bint (daughter) expressions, and the difficulties that student-translators have with them. A corpus of English and Arabic general ibn (son) and bint (daughter) expressions (daughters of Eve, daughter of invention, son of Adam, son of a biscuit, son of a gun) and another corpus of specialized expressions (son of Minos, daughter board, daughter activity) were collected, analyzed and compared. It was found that ibn (son) and bint (daughter) expressions fall into 4 categories: (i) those that are identical in form and meaning in both languages (daughters of Eve, son of Adam); (ii) those that are similar in meaning but differ in wording (step-daughter); (iii) those that exist in English, but have no equivalents in Arabic (daughter of Sappho); and (iv) those that exist in Arabic but have no equivalents in English (daughter of Yemen, i.e., coffee). Specialized expressions used in medicine, computers, business and others are exact translations in both languages (daughter company, daughter cyst, daughter isotope). Student-translators could translate fewer than 13% of the Arabic test items and 12% of the English test items correctly and left 75% blank. Son and daughter expressions similar in both languages were easy to translate (like mother like daughter), whereas opaque ones (بنت الشفة), culture-specific ones (بنت أبيها، بنت بنوت، ابن لبون) and those requiring a specialized background knowledge were difficult (daughter board). Extraneous translation, paraphrase, Literal translation, use of synonyms, transliteration of Arabic words, partial translation, and giving the same translation for different expressions were the most common strategies. Translation difficulties are due to semantic and syntactic problems that the students have. Results and recommendations are given in detail.

Fodder beet pulp is harvested separately using the principle of cutting it at the root. The agrophysical characteristics of root crops (location of their heads relative to the soil surface) greatly affect the process of separating the remains of the pulp from the heads. At the same time, it is advisable to carry out the technological process of collecting scallions in a combined (two-stage) way. It combines the cutting of the main mass of the gorse and the subsequent removal of the remains of the gorse from the heads of root crops with cutters of the «passive copier-passive knife» type. The aim of the research is to increase the functional indicators of the gorse-harvesting modules by developing improved working bodies for cutting the gorse. The article provides a description of the technological process of the improved cutter for the remnants of hemlock and the results of comparative experimental studies of three designs of cutters.

Before breastfeeding maximum mothers(91.5%) sanitized their hand, but 57.2% mothers are reluctant to wear face mask. Only 37.3% lactating mothers opined that SARS-CoV-2cannot be transmitted through breastmilk. More than half of the participants (59.0%) states that they would stop breastfeeding if infected with COVID-19.
Conclusion : This study demonstrates that the lactating mothers are aware of symptoms, mode of transmission and preventive measures of COVID-19. However, they are less aware of any guideline on breastfeeding during the COVID- 19 pandemic. More rigorous dissemination of information on breastfeeding practices in COVID-19 case management needs to be adopted.

Rasio keuangan menggambaran  kondisi kesehatan keuangan suatu perusahaan dan berkaitan dengan nilai perusahaan. Pandemi Covid 19 memberikan dampak positif dan negatif terhadap perusahaan manufaktur go public yang terdaftar di BEI. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis perbandingan rasio keuangan sebelum dan pada saat pandemi covid 19 dan menganalisis pengaruh rasio keuangan terhadap nilai perusahaan pada sebelum dan pada saat pandemi covid 19. Data yang diambil pada penelitian ini adalah triwulan 2,3 dan 4 tahun 2019 (sebelum covid) dan triwulan 2,3 dan 4 tahun 2020 (pada saat covid 19). Metode penentuan sampel yang digunakan adalah purposive sampling, dengan sampel yang diperoleh sebanyak 21 perusahaan manufaktur yang terdaftar di Bursa Efek Indonesia. Teknik analisis yang digunakan adalah analisis deskriptif, Uji Beda (Paired-Sample T-test) dan Uji Regresi Logistik. Berdasarkan hasil dari uji beda Paired-Sample T-test ditemukan bahwa CR berbeda antara pada sebelum dan pada saat pandemi covid 19 sedangkan ROE, DER, DPR dan nilai perusahaan (Tobin-Q) tidak berbeda antara sebelum dan pada saat pandemi covid 19. Berdasarkan hasil uji Regresi Logistik Biner ditemukan bahwa CR, ROE, DER dan DPR berpengaruh secara simultan baik pada sebelum maupun pada saat Pandemi Covid 19. Dengan adanya pandemi covid 19 yang berjalan hampir 1 tahun meskipun ROE dan CR tidak berbeda namun terjadi penurunan pada ROE dan DPR yang artinya kemampuan perusahaan dalam menghasilkan laba dengan menggunakan ekuitasnya mengalami penurunan dan juga penurunan pada pembagian deviden. Sedangkan DER mengalami kenaikan meskipun tidak ada perbedaan namun DER mengalami kenaikan yang artinya hutang mengalami peningkatan. Dengan demikian adanya pandemi covid 19 ini diharapkan perusahaan mampu mempertahankan nilai perusahaan agar tetap survive dan mendapat kepercayaan dari para investor dengan menggunakan strategi-strategi tertentu. Karena calon investor pada saat pandemi covid 19 ini lebih selektif untuk memilih perusahaan yang dijadikan tempat untuk berinvestasi.
