Published: December 2022

Soundscape is an important component of national parks that are established for conserving biodiversity, natural resources and ecological processes, as well as serving tourism to inculcate conservation awareness. Nevertheless, anthropogenic noise from visitors is difficult to control and can disturb wildlife and visitor experiences. This study aims to illustrate the quality of soundscape in recreational areas of Khao Yai National Park (KYNP) based on soundscape components, sound pressure level, perception and the satisfaction of visitors on soundscape, and satisfaction on Sound pressure level in term of LAeq (dBA). Significant differences in the overall soundscape components, sound pressure level, perception and satisfaction on soundscape and satisfaction on sound pressure level at each recreational area were found. Noise from tourism also impacted the presence of wildlife in recreational areas. A correlation was identified between a higher nature-based experience and higher satisfaction on biophony and geophony. Soundscape satisfaction was influenced by satisfaction on sound pressure level, perceived soundscape, and some demographical factors (gender, the day of visit, hometown, recreational areas, visit frequency, income, education, and occupation). KYNP must monitor soundscape components, soundscape satisfaction, and sound pressure levels to maintain the quality of natural soundscape and visitor experiences in the recreational areas. Further research is recommended on using the proportion of soundscape components and sound pressure level as a key monitoring tool to determine the practical carrying capacity of tourists, as soundscape components can be changed due to sound pressure level and also affect the soundscape satisfaction of tourists.

Published: December 2022

In recent times, the economic fortune of Nigeria has been dwindling as a result of a drastic fall in the price of oil in the world market coupled with the illegal bunkering and the Niger/Delta militancy. This calls for the need to diversify the economy. Tourism is one sector that can guarantee numerous benefits for a sustainable growth from the over reliance on the oil sector. This paper therefore, examined the prospect of tourism as a source of income generation, foreign exchange earner and a source of employment. The sources of data were secondary gotten from CBN Statistical Bulletin and the World Tourism Organization. The paper examined the relationship between tourism and economic growth using Least Square. The result revealed that there is a significant relationship between tourism and economic growth. This confirmed the tourism led growth hypothesis that tourism triggers economic growth because tourists’ spending provides foreign exchange earnings and job opportunities. It follows that if well annexed, tourism can serve as a good alternative to oil reliability thereby bringing an end to Nigeria’s over dependence on oil with the attendance volatility. The paper recommended provision of infrastructural facilities and improvement in security in order to motivate prospective tourists.

Published: December 2022

Strategic management of the financial system of the Republic of Kazakhstan in the context of the globalization of the economy is one of the main conditions and factors for ensuring financial stability in the country. The implementation of supervisory powers in the financial sphere is carried out in each country in the institutional forms established by law. The choice of a specific method of regulating organization is determined by the set of factors characteristic for each country. The forms of implementation of regulatory functions in each particular country do not remain unchanged, they are constantly being improved.

The creation of a separate regulatory body to oversee all participants of the financial market in the Republic of Kazakhstan is an important step in the development of the regulation of the financial system of the Republic of Kazakhstan. World practice shows that such a regulatory framework is most effective for the development of the financial sector, financial instruments and financial intermediation services. The banking activities of insurance companies, pension funds and other financial institutions are subject to regulation by the state and must comply with the requirements of the law, which contributes to the stability of the financial system. Some insolvency or imperfection of management of the financial system, insecurity from external and internal risks were shown by financial institutions of the state in the conditions of the world economic and financial crisis. The crisis showed that the existing system of managing the financial system of states around the world needs to be improved.

Integration of Monitoring Systems for Tourist Destinations into National Environmental Monitoring Systems
Authors: KOLTUNOVA Yuliya I. , TKACHEV Aleksandr A. , TOLMACHEVA Svetlana V.
Published: December 2022

Monitoring the state of a tourist destination is determined by the fact that each site must not only have an infrastructure of the appropriate type, but also maintain an equilibrium ecological state, which is determined by whether human activities are either minimized or not implemented at all. In the regions of the Arctic, this interaction is also due to the fact that a significant part of eco-tourism is organized in a location dominated by water tourism. In accordance with this, we define the actual formation of a model of monitoring a water body as based on ecological tourism in the Arctic regions. The novelty of the proposed research is determined by such a factor, which forms an assessment of the quality of the environmental monitoring carried out in order to fully realize the possibility of reducing the anthropogenic load. The authors have developed a strategy, model and practical application for ecosystems based on the use of hydro resources. The application of the obtained results is possible in those ecosystems that are exposed to intense effects and may experience a decrease in recreational capacity. The authors show that the developed model can be fully implemented in the territories, which currently can offer tourists rest in hydrozones, but due to the high load they cannot always accept a sufficient number of tourists.
Elasticity of Tourism Demand in the Modern World
Authors: BIRYUKOV Vladimir Aleksandrovich , LIVSON Maya Vladimirovna , FROLOVA Victoria Borisovna , SKACHKO Galina Aleksandrovna , DUKHOVNAYA Liliya Leonidovna
Published: December 2022

The article is devoted to the analysis of regularities of tourism demand formation in the modern world. It has been established that the high degree of demand differentiation provides tourists with the opportunity to choose products that are diverse in terms of quality, range of additional services and travel destinations. The authors have proved that tourists strive to independently select individual components, form tours and determine tour programs. It has been revealed that the remoteness of tourism demand in time and place from tourism supply necessitates premature planning of most tourist trips since the demand for most tourism products is seasonal. The authors have proposed to regulate the seasonality of demand for tourism services by various marketing measures, such as price differentiation and discounts, development of off-season types of recreation aimed at transferring part of the demand from the intensive season to another period, as well as reduction of the cost of tourism services.

Authors: BELONOZHKO Marina L. , KIRICHUK Stepan M. , SILIN Anatoly N.
Published: December 2022

The relevance of the study is determined by the fact that eco-tourism today is nothing more than a set of proposals on the tourism market, which is an important component of the country's tourist complex, but does not always meet international requirements for the provision of tourist services. The novelty of the research lies in the formation of requirements for certification of services in the country's eco-tourism as the basis for compliance of the proposed services with international requirements. The article provides a comparative analysis of all proposed criteria for the evaluation of tourism services. The authors adapt the proposed assessment of the ecological tourist complex. Solutions are proposed for determining the conformity of the service being provided on the Russian market to international standards, which will make it possible to introduce categories of services and the possibility of providing them. The authors claim that this will contribute to economic incentives for the analyzed industry. The practical significance of the study is determined by the possibility of forming supply in the tourist services market in the international community. The application of the obtained developments will form a competitive offer in the domestic market, since it is the attraction of foreign tourists and the correlation with the international standards of the service provided that will form the opportunity for the development of the industry.

Authors: PAVLOVA Alla , ZARETSKAYA Marina , TELYATNIKOV Ilya , RUBTSOV Sergey
Published: December 2022

The Russian sector of the Azov recreational area is under the influence of numerous pollution sources of anthropogenic or natural origin. To ensure a comfortable recreation and recovery of the population, it is necessary to apply methods of integrated system monitoring, which makes it possible to identify patterns of the pollution formation in heterogeneous areas of the territory and places of increased environmental risk. Mathematical and simulation modelling should be an integral part of such systems, as a tool for scenario analysis, forecasting and warning. The paper proposes cellular automaton modelling methods, which have the advantages of expressivity, which allows for expansion of the possibilities for studying complex physicochemical processes and phenomena associated with the migration and transformation of reagents in the atmosphere and in the aquatic environment. The method is implemented in the form of a software application. We also present the results of the simulation of diffusion process and two substances - products of combustion in a fire with a point localization of epicentres; independent dispersion and interaction of light fractions of emission products upon activation of a land volcano and heavy fractions of mud volcano breccias of an underwater mud volcano.

Published: December 2022

Environmental law is an actively developing branch of law in all countries, including Russia. Changes in the sphere of legal regulation of environmental management, protection and safety as an element of national security, like in any other branch of law, are due to the need to constantly improve the legal regulation of social relations. However, changes in the field of environmental law are particularly dynamic. This is due to, on the one hand, the continuing growth of adverse effects on the environment and, on the other hand, the development of new resource and energy-saving technologies and the need for their more active implementation in economic activities, as well as the application of effective management procedures. The article suggests directions for the development of the environmental law branch management in the Russian legal system. First, the norms of environmental law are now becoming fundamental in terms of ensuring basic human rights and freedoms, primarily, the right to life and health protection. Second, the norms of environmental law must be aimed at ensuring the well-being of future generations. Third, it is the complex intersectoral nature of environmental law and, accordingly, the breadth and diversity of sources containing the norms of environmental law. Finally, it is the global nature of environmental problems and, accordingly, the need to coordinate the efforts of the international community in matters of legal regulation of environmental protection, as well as the international exchange of experience in this area and focus on the experience of countries that have achieved the most significant results in the development of environmental legislation.

Published: December 2022

Ironically, with an overwhelming usage of plastic shopping bags, and product packaging among Thailand’s small medium enterprises like the nation’s tourism street markets, literature, and informed practices on Thailand’s domestic plastic policy communications towards a policy understanding, are still insufficient. The current condition has eventually made this study possible. The research significance has reflected the diffusion of transnational communication framework towards domestic policy transfer and underscored a better attempt of policy understanding process especially towards tourism’s SME. The research employed a quantitative methodology with a total of 380 paper questionnaires distributed to SME sellers at Chatuchak Weekend Market in Bangkok. While the research endeavored to exercise the policy communications evidence of two major plastic policies in Thailand (National 3R Strategy Campaign & Plastic Debris Management Plan 2017-2021), of 380 respondents, 300 (79% response rate) were validated and proceeded to the next sequence of the survey as they had knowledge about mentioned two policies. With three types of communications venues proposed (non-formal, semi-formal & formal) and targeting three different policy understandings (objective, subjective & overall policy understanding), the finding has shown that all proposed communication venues, although robustly designed by an applicable theoretical foundation, did not contribute to the plastic’s overall policy understanding. Nevertheless, formal communication venues contributed positively toward an objective understanding of the policy, and non-formal venues toward subjective understanding. Most significantly, the distinctive finding of this research is a strong argument that Thailand’s government has not fully deemed the effective strategy and framework for its domestic plastic policy transfer - notably to tourism’s SMEs.

Published: December 2022

The programme aimed at the increase of energy efficiency of the economy has been implemented in Russia in the last 10 - 15 years. The corresponding regulatory base and energy-saving programmeswere worked out at both national and republic levels. The results of this programme were sufficient up to 2008. However, rather insignificant changes have taken place in Russian energy efficiency sincethe world financial crisis of 2008. So, it is impossible to speak about any positive tendencies. It means that energy-wasting activities, taking place all over the country, exceed the positive effects of energy savingby enterprises. It is partly due to the population of Russia that comprises 150 million people. According to the research, 68% of urban populationhas no ideas about management of energy consumption in their households, and 54% of urbanpeopleare not going to do it in the perspective. As a result of the research, different activities, aimed at promotionof energy efficiency, were proposed. We hope that the realization of these activities will facilitate the increase of energy efficiency of our country and, thus, the increase of the quality of the world ecosystem.

Effective and intensive development of agricultural industry is impossible without a system of measures to protect agricultural lands from different types of degradation. On the one hand, it is necessary to provide a maximum yield of agricultural crops and, on the other hand, to maintain and increase soil fertility, as well as to prevent negative human impact on the environment. More extensive soil fertility recovery requires a system of measures: application of fertilizers, agricultural and ameliorative practices, stimulation of humification and others. Humus is a key element of soil fertility. It accelerates biochemical and physiological processes, metabolism and total energy of processes in a plant body, intensifies nutrient enrichment, thus increasing the crop and its quality. Soil exhaustion due to humus reduction may result in a disaster for the agro industrial complex of a region. Soil fertility is the national heritage and the country’s strategic reserve.

This article suggests that the problem should be solved by creating the Agro Landscape - Technology system and studying the responses of the simulated system on changes in its characteristics and initial conditions according to the considered methods of control over working operations. The methodology being designed provides practical methods of making forecasts and using them in solving management problems where many interrelated (system) factors and phenomena should be considered and vast forecast data should be used.

This study analyzed the abuse of circumstances as a factor that delimits the freedom of making a contract associated with the onset of the contract, not because of the casue which is not allowed. The abuse of circumstance is not only related to the content of a contract, but rather related to what had happened at the time of the inception of the contract as one of the parties feels constrained to determine their will in a contract. It concerns on the circumstances that contribute to onset of the contract (i.e., taking benefit from other’s circumstance does not cause the content or intent of a contract be not permissible, rather, it may cause the missused will be restricted). The abuse of circumstances may happen due to one’s superiority over another party. The superiority is not only economic in nature, but also psychological, or both. Misusing such superiority may cause circumstance abuse. It is due to inequality of bargaining power that the weak cannot avoid from, while the stronger party abuses the circumstance by imposing the contents of the contract that leads to the inequal advantages for both parties. In Indonesia, the abuse of circumstances is often used as a cause to abrogate a contract due to the defect of will, although it is not yet regulated in legislation but rather derived from a legal construction recognized by the jurisprudence of the Supreme Court. It is definitely differenct from Netherlands that has regulated its misbruik van omstandigheden in article 3:44 lid 1 Nieuw Burgerlijk Wetboek.
