Published: May 2022

Ha aumentado el interés por investigar la experiencia estudiantil en educación superior, particularmente considerando el amplio crecimiento en el acceso y diversidad. En Chile, la Encuesta Nacional de Compromiso Estudiantil (ENCE) ha sido aplicada desde 2017 por un grupo de instituciones del Consejo de Rectores de las Universidades Chilenas (CRUCh), levantando una batería de evidencias relativas a la experiencia estudiantil. Este estudio documenta los actuales esfuerzos por organizar la información que reportan los estudiantes en perfiles de compromiso estudiantil a partir de ciertas áreas disciplinarias y profesionales. Los resultados de ENCE 2019 son analizados, incluyendo información de 9869 estudiantes de primero y cuarto año de programas de pregrado en nueve universidades. Se analizan diversos patrones compromiso estudiantil mediante análisis de conglomerados de la muestra completa, que incluye a estudiantes de programas de todas las áreas de estudio, y submuestras de estudiantes en programas de Ingeniería Civil, Derecho, Medicina y Educación. Se plantean diversas consideraciones sobre el uso actual y potencialidades de las evidencias generadas en Chile y otros países, y las diferencias que aparecen entre diversas áreas de estudio y tradiciones de formación profesional.
Exploiting bacterial isolates for diesel degrading potential under in vitro conditions
Authors: Taskar Kanchan , Gupta Sarika
Published: May 2022

Hydrocarbon contaminated oil-spilled areas and oil-products have caused serious harm with increasing attention for development, implementation and removal of these contaminants. Bacterial diversity on succession at the petroleum hydrocarbon contaminated environment can give answer the problem. Such lands have serious problems as totally barren or with rare plantation. Bacteria can thereby be exploited for the mitigation of hydrocarbon to enhance the nutrient availability for vegetation. Present study involves collection of soil samples heavily contaminated with hydrocarbon from Bagru (Rajasthan). Samples were analysed by solid liquid extraction method followed by FTIR (Fourier Transform Infrared) and HPLC (High Performance Liquid Chromatography) analysis. During microbiological analysis hydrocarbon degrading bacteria were screened. FTIR spectral analysis indicated the presence of the functional group’s alkanes and aromatic ringed compounds; 43% to 69% hydrocarbon content recorded by HPLC analysis of all the soil samples respectively. From the soil samples six gram-positive and four gram-negative bacterial isolates were explored possessing hydrocarbon degrading capacities in the range 47.04-87.31% and 10.12-95.24% respectively. Growth kinetic studies revealed the degradation up to 1000 ppm diesel in 3 days under in vitro conditions. These bacteria can further be exploited for diesel degradation and will certainly propose a possible solution to the prevailing issue for its biodegradation in ex-situ conditions after up scaling.

Published: May 2022

Increasing temperature is a global issue due to the existing climate change problem that reduces agricultural productivity and increases prices. It badly affects the yield, and active constituents of medicinal and aromatic plants, especially in newly reclaimed lands in desert areas. The Hibiscus sabdariffa L. is a remarkable crop known for its calyces to make a refreshing drink. It is in other food industries and has many healing effects. A split-plot field experiment was conducted on Hibiscus sabdariffa L. at Siwa Oasis, Egypt, during the 2018 and 2019 seasons for studying to reduce the harmful effect of heat stress on plants and yield improvement. Spraying with three salicylic acid concentrations was put to main plots as 0, 500, and 1000 mg/l and the number of sprays with Spirulina platensis algae extract was allotted to sub-plots and used as 0, 1 and 2 times in the season. Some quantity and quality parameters were under investigation. The significant highest increases in dry weight per plant, number of fruits per plant, dry yield of sepals per hectare and sepal's anthocyanin content were from the combination among spraying with salicylic acid at the concentration of 500 mg/l and spraying with blue green algae extract twice through the season. This treatment was helpful to decrease the high-temperature injury on growth through the summer months.

Published: May 2022

Changes in innovation and technology, globalization processes, increasing competition determine changes in the activities of learning organizations (educational institutions). Effective management helps manage these changes and meet emerging challenges. The concept of learning organizations is closely related to future perspectives, perceptions of an institution that is constantly evolving and changing. Those changes affect not only the institution itself but also its employees who need to change, improve, and meet the challenges that arise with it. In order to overcome such changes, not only the purposeful lifelong learning is important, but also the self-directed learning. In both cases, this can only be achieved with innovative and focused leadership that facilitates a variety of forms of employee learning. The essence of effective management in learning organizations is related to the goals pursued jointly both by the organization itself and its employees because otherwise it will be difficult to improve and change. With this in mind, the aim of the article is to identify effective management solutions that help to improve the self-learning of employees in this case the teachers. To achieve the goal, the tasks are formulated to discuss the concepts of effective management and learning organization, to describe the theoretical aspects of self-learning; to reveal the self-learning strategies of the learning organization which is the school. Thus, the research highlighted the opportunities provided by the effective management of learning organizations, reflected in self-learning, for the development of employees so that their skills and knowledge are constantly updated. Emphasized self-learning strategies - practical work, observation, communication and collaboration, reflection, reading - are preliminary guidelines for creating a suitable learning environment within the organization.

Published: May 2022

The experience of the countries of the European Union shows that the driving force behind their social and economic development is local self-government, in Ukraine it is territorial communities. Decentralization reform should ensure that local governments are able to independently resolve all local issues with their own resources. The problem of financial provision of territorial communities is of particular relevance in the context of financial instability in the country. The methodological basis of the study was: a systematic approach - for the theoretical definition of the essence of the financial support of territorial communities and their assessment; methods of comparative analysis and synthesis - to identify patterns of financial support and the structure of budgetary resources of territorial communities; statistical methods for assessing the effectiveness of financial support for territorial communities; graphic - to display the main trends in the formation of monetary resources of territorial communities. To analyze the dynamics of financial provision of TC in Ukraine, statistical data for the last 5 years were used. The article considers the impact of decentralization on the financial support of territorial communities. Its advantages and disadvantages are determined. The filling of local budgets in Ukraine in the conditions of decentralization is analyzed. It was studied that own revenues of local budgets have been constantly growing during 2016-2020, which positively characterizes the introduction of decentralization. Although, compared to 2019, the total revenues of local budgets reduced due to a decrease in transfers from the state budget. The dynamics and structure of interbudgetary transfers in 2016-2020 are analyzed. The mechanism of equalization and receipt of basic subsidies is considered. The main sources of formation of incomes of local budgets are determined. The importance in the structure of incomes of territorial communities of the tax on the income of individuals is noted. An evaluation model of the sufficiency of financial support for territorial communities is considered and a ranked series of territorial units is constructed. The problems of the financial support system for territorial communities due to the existence of post-conflict and temporarily occupied territories are identified. Directions for improving the financial provision of territorial communities are proposed and alternative sources of funds for the budgets of territorial communities are considered.

Published: May 2022

The aim of the study was to analyze the prospects for further improvement of electronic settlements, digitalization of non-cash payments in business in the international and Ukrainian markets of payment services, information and accounting support of electronic settlements and development of proposals for their improvement. The study used the historical method to periodize the development of electronic computer technology in the field of electronic settlements and electronic settlements; comparative analysis - to establish the degree of digitalization of non-cash payments in Ukraine, other countries and continents; method of scientific abstraction, statistical and logical methods - for generalization and registration of electronic calculations, their documentation and display in the accounting and information system of the enterprise. As a result of research, the definition of electronic settlements was clarified and it was proposed to introduce the concept of "electronic settlements" in accounting terminology. The genesis of the introduction and development of electronic settlements between business partners is studied. Possible formats of electronic settlements between market participants are substantiated. Options for e-commerce and settlements in the form of separate blocks are presented, each of which differs in a special way of making electronic settlements and registration of transactions in the accounting system. The use of unified forms of standard documents is proposed, which would serve as a legal basis for making entries in the system of accounting and reporting. The practical implementation of these recommendations will allow businesses to choose a profitable option for electronic settlements and display electronic settlements in the accounting and reporting system. Further research requires a procedure for documentary or undocumented confirmation of electronic settlements and electronic settlements.

Published: May 2022

The paper examines the search and development of effective ways to reduce the proportion of grain in feed due to non-grain raw materials and partial or complete replacement of such high-value ingredients as animal proteins, fats, phosphatides, macro-and micronutrients and vitamin-mineral premixes through the use of natural resources of the local raw material base. The main nutrients contained in the protein-mineral supplement of the Dniester River indicate its unique, natural multicomponent composition, so it can be widely used, in particular, as a source of protein, amino acids, vitamins, macro-and micronutrients and possibly others. biologically active substances not yet identified by us. It was found that the brightness of the experimental groups in terms of live weight slightly exceeded the animals of the control group. Bright experimental groups made slightly better use of feed nutrients. Feed costs per 1 kg of live weight gain, they were 6.5-8.4% lower. When feeding the bright research groups aquaculture of the Dniester River, there is a tendency to increase the strength of their wool. The inclusion of aquaculture additives in the feed helped to increase the concentration in the blood of bright experimental groups of hemoglobin by 0.13-0.38 g (P> 0.05) compared with the control, which indicates an increased level of redox processes in the body. Moreover, the highest content of hemoglobin (12.01 vs. 11.63 g%) was observed in the blood of bright IV experimental group, in the diet of which was compound feed with the inclusion of 15 wt.% Additive. However, the difference in this indicator between the animals of the IV experimental and I (control) groups (0.38 g%) is statically unlikely (P> 0.05).

The Legation of Gui de Boulogne in the Hungarian Kingdom
Authors: Maléth Ágnes
Published: May 2022

Following the first Italian campaign of Louis I, the papal court tried to prevent the Hungarian king from attacking the Kingdom of Naples for the second time. Pope Clement VI sent a prominent member of the papal curia as legatus a latere to Louis I to negotiate: Gui de Boulogne, cardinal presbyter of S. Caecilia. As the consequence of the shortness of his stay in the Hungarian Kingdom, the legatine activity of the cardinal has rather been neglected by the historiography until now. The main aim of this present study is therefore to examine Gui dé Boulogne’s légation in Hungary in detail, as well as to propose a new approach for the analysis and consider the topic from the institutional-historical point of view.

Authors: Reich Szabina
Published: May 2022

Excavations had been going on within and near the cathedral of King Saint Stephen in Székésféhérvár. This is the place where the Saint Peter parish church might have stood in the Middle Ages. We know four building periods of it. An originally four lobed church had been extended to a singlé navé construction with a polygonal apsé and a chapel, which is a today’s southern tower. Then another chapel was built on the opposite side, and the former chapel became a sacristy. In the fourth period the building was reconstructed to a three-nave church with two eastern towers. The medieval building was destroyed in the Baroque era except for the two towers.
The Historiographical Typology of the English Royalism in the First Half of the Seventeenth Century
Authors: Madarász Fanni
Published: May 2022

The topic of the present paper provides an insight into the royalist movement of the seventeenth century England, pre-eminently focusing on the Civil War era. Royalist, or constitutional royalist is a term to describe a moderate political group of the 1640s, concentrating around King Charles I, as his advisors. Recent results identified and categorized some of the main political thinkers of this faction. However, this categorization still has its own limits and is in the need of further clarification. The study is meant to highlight the defining elements of the royalist political discourse, including the notions of the rule of law, the ancient constitution and absolutism. The present paper also aims to investigate how the pre-existing political theories and doctrines from the Medieval and Tudor-era influenced the narrative of those, who remained to be loyal to the king, amidst the turbulence of the Civil War.
„Facultatem concedit conferendi beneficia”
Authors: Kiss Gergely
Published: May 2022

For a long timé, Elémér Mályusz’s thesis, according to which foreign clerics flooded Hungarian church benefices, enjoyed unquestionable authority in Hungarian church history research, and this phenomenon could only be stopped by the vigorous action of Sigismund of Luxembourg at the turn of the 14th‒15th centuries. The present research uses prosopographic data of papal envoys to analyse this question for the first decade of the 14th céntury. Thé two papal légatés Niccolò Boccassini and Gentile de Monteflorum, who operated in Hungary, arrived, like many other papal legates, with special powers (facultates) that theoretically provided more opportunities for foreign clerics to receive benefices in Hungary. The study examines the extent to which the two papal legates took advantage of these opportunities and helped members of their own families to receive ecclesiastical benefices here, and what was their proportion in all the households of the legates.
The Making of a Nation
Authors: Majnarić Ivan
Published: May 2022

During the 14th century, the state and governmental development brought forward the need to simplify a complex social reality. The management of this complexity eventually led to the formation of more tightly connected social groups, some of which can be considered as corporate groups. At the same time, different identities became clearly visible. Both processes can be observed in the Kingdom of Croatia during the Angevin reorganization of their dominions. The paper argues that these processes, among other things, nurtured the emergence of a pre-modern Croatian nation.

Introduction. The article investigates prospective teachers’ motivation for targeted conflict resolution training. The purpose of the article is to identify and analyze the relationship between the self-assessment of the level of tolerance among undergraduate students majoring in education and their need to increase their conflict resolution competence. Materials and Methods. The study followed a systematic approach and used theoretical and empirical research methods. Primary empirical data were collected via a questionnaire survey. The sample consisted of 2nd-5th–year students (n=152) doing their initial teacher education degree. For mathematical analysis of the relationship between the study variables, the Spearman rank correlation method and logistic regression analysis were used. Results. The study revealed a relationship between students’ self-assessment of tolerant qualities and their willingness to increase their conflict resolution competence. The study found high levels of self-assessment of tolerance among prospective teachers. At the same time, in the structure of tolerant qualities, the rejection of violence prevails (X = 4.59). The results of the study show that students who consider themselves incapable of renouncing violence or obeying the rules are more willing to increase their conflict resolution competence. It was established that most students (76.3 %) have a need to increase conflict resolution readiness, namely, to develop the ability to organize interaction between participants in a conflict situation for its productive resolution. Only 21.1 % of the respondents argued that they do not need to increase their competence in conflict resolution. Conclusions. The article concludes about the relationship between prospective teacher’s self-assessment of level of tolerance and their motivation to increase their conflict resolution competence. Self-assessment of tolerance, being a significant professional quality, is important for future teachers in order to consider themselves as professionals who are able to interact with other participants in education in various conditions, including conflict situations.

Published: May 2022

Introduction. The article examines the problem of teachers’ emotional competence as an obligatory component of their professional communicative competence. The purpose of the study is to assess the level of emotional competence among school teachers and determine the optimal conditions for its development. Materials and Methods. The study is based on the analysis of scholarly literature by Russian and foreign researchers devoted to emotional competence and emotional intelligence, its role in communicative interactions and successful professional activities. The sample included teachers and educational psychologists from comprehensive secondary schools in Irkutsk (N=70). Respondents' teaching experience ranged from 1 year to 40 years (M=28.50; SD=1.96). The study used V.V. Boyko’s inventory for diagnosing the level of empathic abilities and D. Lyusin’s emotional intelligence test. The Emotional Competence Training program was designed in order to develop teachers’ emotional competence. The program included mini-lectures and discussion lectures, exercises on verbal and non-verbal means of expressing emotions, ways of managing emotional states, role-playing games, art therapy classes, and reflection. Results. The results of the empirical research showed that the majority of teachers have an average level of emotional intelligence. During the implementation of the training program and after its completion, teachers' understanding of each other's emotional state and empathy increased. The results obtained are a resource for increasing the level of teachers’ emotional competence and reducing their emotional burnout. Conclusions. The authors conclude that the level of school teachers’ emotional competence is unacceptably low. Optimized work load and special training programs can be employed for its effective development.

Developing Pre-Service Science Teachers’ Entrepreneurship Mindsets
Authors: Cheung Alan C. K.
Published: May 2022

The demand for knowledge in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) is expanding as the twenty-first century progresses. Growing K-12 STEM education has risen to the top of the priority list in many countries’ educational reform efforts. Typical contexts for giving scientific instructions should be designed around engineering design-based thematic activities rather than the other way around. Teachers’ responsibilities as designers of design-based thematic activities would also present them with numerous chances for professional development and advancement. It is claimed that introducing entrepreneurship ideas into the engineering curriculum results in improved student satisfaction, longer professional careers, and a shift in attitudes toward engineering difficulties. It allows students to enjoy themselves more and draws their attention to the possibility of self-employment.

While this increasingly popular mode of school running has achieved notable results in Beijing, Shanghai, and Hangzhou, among other cities, there are concerns about the problems it engenders, such as severe homogenization and poor group management. The purpose of this paper is to examine the causes, outcomes, and problems of education groups and to propose solutions to existing problems, as well as to provide references for future school alliance development.
Overview of Congenital Hypopituitarism for the Neonatologist
Authors: Bautista Geoanna
Published: May 2022

Congenital hypopituitarism is the deficiency in 1 or more hormones produced by the anterior pituitary or released by the posterior pituitary and has an estimated incidence of 1 in 4,000 to 10,000. Due to the critical role the pituitary plays in growth, metabolic, and reproductive processes, early diagnosis is essential to prevent devastating and often preventable outcomes. However, in neonates with congenital hypopituitarism, symptoms are often nonspecific and tend to overlap with other disease processes, making diagnosis extremely challenging in the neonatal period. This review highlights the embryology and organogenesis of the pituitary gland, genetic causes of hypopituitarism, clinical presentations in the neonatal period, and methods to diagnose and treat select deficiencies with a focus on anterior pituitary hormones.
Relative Adrenal Insufficiency in the Preterm Infant
Authors: Gutierrez Cristina E. , De Beritto Theodore
Published: May 2022

Identifying relative adrenal insufficiency in the critically ill preterm neonate is not always clear-cut. Preterm infants with vasopressor-resistant shock may have persistent cardiovascular insufficiency, which can result in rapid decompensation. After attempts of resuscitation with fluids and inotropes, these infants are often found to respond to glucocorticoids. This raises the important question of how prevalent adrenal insufficiency is in the preterm population. This article reviews the development and role of the adrenal glands, defines relative adrenal insufficiency in the preterm population, discusses barriers to determining this diagnosis, and describes treatment options.
Intestinal Atresias
Authors: Rich Barrie S. , Bornstein Eran , Dolgin Stephen E.
Published: May 2022

Intestinal atresia is a form of congenital bowel obstruction that requires operative repair in the early neonatal period. Duodenal atresia and jejunoileal (JI) atresia are appropriately seen as distinct entities. Both can be suspected with fetal imaging, which can assist with prenatal counseling of families. Duodenal atresia is more commonly associated with comorbidities, whereas JI atresia is more often an isolated finding. Surgical repair is essential and is typically well tolerated. Although it may take time to achieve intestinal function postoperatively, these infants are usually able to tolerate full feeds after resolution of the ileus. Excellent short- and long-term outcomes for isolated duodenal atresia and JI atresia are expected.
Patients’ view on information about medications: a pharmacy-based survey focusing on perceptions of pharmacists using a clinical decision support system
Authors:   Department of Informatics, Linnaeus University, Hammar Tora , Zetterholm My ,   Department of informatics, Linnaeus University
Published: May 2022

The aim of this study was to describe patients’ view on information regarding their medication with focus on community pharmacists’ use of the clinical decision support system EES (electronic expert support system). This study was performed as a survey among patients who were collecting prescription medication at seven Swedish community pharmacies, with 281 respondents (response rate of 68%). Results show that patients receive information regarding their medication from many different sources with differences related to age, gender and native language. In general, most patients seemed satisfied with the information they had about their medicines, and with the information they got from pharmacists. Results show that awareness of how pharmacists work to improve medication safety, and knowledge about EES is low. However, results indicate that many patients have high trust in pharmacists, expect them to check for potential DRPs and are positive to pharmacists using EES more.
A flexible Bayesian mixture approach for multi-modal circular data
Authors: KILIÇ Muhammet Burak , KALAYLIOĞLU Zeynep , SENGUPTA Ashıs
Published: May 2022

In this article, we consider multi-modal circular data and nonparametric inference. We introduce a doubly flexible method based on Dirichlet process circular mixtures in which parameter assumptions are relaxed. We assess and discuss in simulation studies the efficiency of the proposed extension relative to the standard finite mixture applications in the analysis of multi-modal circular data. The real data application shows that this relaxed approach is promising for making important contributions to our understanding of many real-life phenomena particularly in environmental sciences such as animal orientations.
Two-way ANOVA by using Cholesky decomposition and graphical representation
Authors: TEKİN Mustafa , EKELİK Haydar
Published: May 2022

In general, the coefficient estimates of linear models are carried out using the ordinary least squares (OLS) method. Since the analysis of variance is also a linear model, the coefficients can be estimated using the least-squares method. In this study, the coefficient estimates in the two-way analysis of variance were performed by using the Cholesky decomposition. The purpose of using the Cholesky decomposition in finding coefficient estimates make variables used in model being orthogonal such that important variables can be easily identified. The sum of squares in two-way analysis of variance (row, column, interaction) were also found by using the coefficient estimates obtained as a result of the Cholesky decomposition. Thus, important variables that affect the sum of squares can be determined more easily because the Cholesky decomposition makes the variables in the model orthogonal. By representing the sum of squares with vectors, how the prediction vector in two-way ANOVA model was created was shown. It was mentioned how the Cholesky decomposition affected the sum of squares. This method was explained in detail on a sample data and shown geometrically.
Bayesian and frequentist approaches on estimation and testing for a zero-inflated binomial distribution
Authors: NAM Seung Ji , KİM Seong , NG Hon Keung Tony
Published: May 2022

To analyze discrete count data with excessive zeros, different zero-inflated statistical models that allow for frequent zero-valued observations have been developed. When the underlying data generation process of non-zero values is based on the number of successes in a sequence of independent Bernoulli trials, the zero-inflated binomial distribution is perhaps adequate for modeling purposes. In this paper, we discuss statistical inference for a zero-inflated binomial distribution using the objective Bayesian and frequentist approaches. Point and interval estimation of the model parameters and hypothesis testing for excessive zeros in a zero-inflated binomial distribution are developed. A Monte Carlo simulation study is used to assess the performance of estimation and hypothesis testing procedures. A comparative study of the objective Bayesian approach and the frequentist approach is provided.

Published: May 2022

Sanal gerçeklik teknolojileri, kendiliğinden, doğal olarak var olan gerçekliğe karşılık yapay olarak üretilebilen, kurgulanabilen bir gerçeklik biçimi ortaya çıkarmıştır. Baudrillard’ın düşünceleri paralelinde gerçeğin hiper bir görünüme ulaşmasıyla simülasyon durumuna geçilebileceği dolayısıyla simüle edilen her şeyin aslının buharlaşıp yok olabileceği tartışılmıştır. Fiziksel gerçeğin dışında zihinsel bir gerçeklik yaratan sanat ve oyun dünyası da teknolojik olarak üretilen ve kurgulanan yeni gerçeklik dünyalarından bağımsız kalamamıştır. Son gelişmelerle birlikte fiziksel ve sanal gerçekliğin hibrit versiyonunu içeren evren ötesi anlamına gelen metaverse alanlar gündeme gelmiştir. Yaratıcılığa dayalı olan ve aralarında çeşitli bağıntılar bulunan sanat ve oyun, birbirlerinin içinde yer alarak bu yeni hibrit alanda başka boyutlar edinmiştir. Sanal oyun alanları, eğlenceye ek olarak üretimi ve tüketimi de içeren birçok finans kaynağının barındığı alanlar haline gelmiştir. Sanal gerçeklik alanlarında, devrim yaratacak olan, fiziksel ve sanalın birleştirilmesinden daha çok sanal platformlar arası meta, veri taşıyabilme durumudur. Bu durum temelleri atılmakta olan metaverse ile gerçekleştirilebilecektir. Meta evrene uygun yaratım biçimleriyle ortaya çıkacak sanat pratikleri, başka estetik algıların, alımlama şekillerinin de doğuşuna sahne olacaktır. Bu çalışmada oyun ve sanat bağlamında gerçeğin teknolojik dönüşümü, metaverse olarak adlandırılan hibrit gerçeklik sistemi ve sanatın buralarda alacağı konum üzerinde durulacaktır. Metaverse’de sanat konusuna en yakın örnekler üzerinden sanatın yeni hareket alanı tasvir edilmeye çalışılacaktır.

[RETRACTED]

Liposomes are spherical vesicles with internal cavities and composed of one or more phospholipid bilayers. Their structural components are phospholipids or synthetic amphiphilic combined with cholesterol and other sterols, which can affect membrane permeability. Liposomes can encapsulate hydrophilic or lipophilic molecules. Their applications are now well established in various fields such as medicine, biomolecules, and gene delivery, and have been studied as DDS (drug delivery system) to enhance treatment safety and efficacy of the agent.

GENESIS OF POLITICAL GEOGRAPHY AND GEOPOLITICS
Authors:   Taras Shevchenko National University of Kyiv, Yatsenko B.
Published: May 2022

For the first time, polit-geographical information on the antique sources occurred in Strabon’s “Geography” (63 B. C. – 23 A. D.) on China in chronicles “Shuzin” and “Shizin” (І B. C.). Geospatial motifs of geopolitics we meet in treatise Sun-Tzu “The Art of War” (IV B. C.), on India “The Arthashastra” (endeavour Kautilya, IV B. C.). The making of political geography and geopolitics as sciences take place during the XX century. A bottom contemporary scientific search in these sciences has the same object of investigation (territorial political systems) but the subjects and genesis of this investigation are quite different. During the XX century, a geopolitical epoch made new challenges that burned a new need for geospatial research. At the beginning of centuries, the answer looked at geographical determinism and dualistic paradigms; in the Wersalle epoch the US grew as the strongest state in the World, but in the European and Japanese geopolitics were strong nationalistic influences; in the Potsdam epoch – developed civilizations paradigm and “World Order” paradigm, theory of territorial political systems.

Ecological Information as A Factor in The Formation of The Institutional Environment: General Dynamics and Regional Features

The article substantiates the hypothesis that environmental information is the most important factor in the formation of environmentally oriented institutional environment. The need to inform the population about the state of the environment is a consequence, firstly, of the asymmetry of market information, and, secondly, of its inaccessibility, which leads to a wrong assessment by individuals of the properties of a number of goods. As such goods, as it is proved in the article, act as excess volumes of goods produced at the expense of savings on the costs associated with the prevention of negative externalities of companies in the region on the environment (purification of atmospheric air from pollutants, wastewater, waste collection and disposal). Since the market demand for this kind of benefits exceeds the volumes "desired by society", they belong to the category of "demeritorious" and their "production" must be regulated by the state and the regional community. When choosing the mechanisms of the institutional environment aimed at an ecologically oriented economy, the authors proceed from the provision that both individual and social interests are reconsolidated by the inhabitants of the region, territory. In this regard, the expansion of access to environmental information, and its content is a necessary condition for increasing environmental awareness of the population of the region, contributing to the "construction" of public interest and the construction of specific mechanisms of "soft" paternalism at the regional level. The necessity of expansion of public representation and public participation in the formation of regional public institutions - chambers, public councils under the executive bodies of the region is substantiated. It is proposed to improve the openness and democracy of the processes of formation of civil society institutions at the regional level in order to more effectively implement the function of representation of the interests of the local community in them.
