State Support for Households with Children in COVID 19 Conditions: Comparative Analysis
Authors: Kostina Svetlana , Bannykh Galina 
Published: January 2021

Research background: The restrictions introduced by nation states to overcome the spread of the COVID19 pandemic had a negative impact on the situation of families with children due to lower incomes of the population, increased unemployment, and reduced opportunities for using social infrastructure (education, health, culture and sports). In order to overcome the consequences of the restrictions introduced during the COVID19, national states proposed various support measures not only for business, but also for the population, especially for families with children.
Purpose of the article: The purpose of the article is to conduct a comparative analysis of government support measures for families with children aimed at overcoming the socio-economic consequences of COVID 19, using the example of the Russian Federation and a number of countries in Europe and Asia.
Methods: as the main research methods are the analysis of documents, the analysis of statistical data.
Findings & Value added: The analysis presents systematic data on measures of state support for families with children in various European and Asian countries. It is concluded that these measures are of a monetary nature (in the form of direct payments), and non-monetary nature (in the form of guarantees, benefits, material assistance of various kinds). At the same time, the question of the effectiveness of these measures to restore the socio-economic situation of families with children during and after СOVID19 remains controversial.

Authors: Prihodova Katerina , Jech Jakub 
Published: January 2021

Research background: One of the significant globalization consequences is a threat of rapidly spreading communicable diseases. In recent months, COVID-19 has spread worldwide. It is a highly infectious disease, which is manifested mainly by fever, respiratory problems, muscle pain and fatigue. Therefore, there is a need to reliable monitor people’s body temperature. If the monitoring process takes places in enclosed spaces, the procedure may be performed at the entrance to the building. However, the problem occurs in public spaces. Therefore, to solve this problem, we propose the use of a drone with a thermal camera for scanning people in public spaces and subsequent evaluation using classification methods.
Purpose of the article: The aim of this article is to create a model for sensing and measuring the body temperature of people in public spaces so that the global impacts of COVID-19 on the economy and society are reduced.
Methods: To monitor large areas, it is necessary to have suitable methods for obtaining quality data. One of the methods for obtaining data with the high spatial resolution is the use of UAVs with a planned flight. Artificial intelligence methods will be used for the classification of persons; their representatives are, e.g. convolutional neural networks.
Findings & Value added: The proposed model of sensing and subsequent classification of people into groups (normal body temperature, elevated body temperature). The output of the model will help to monitor the spread of infectious diseases (the condition is a symptom - increased body temperature) in today’s globalized world.

Published: January 2021

Research background: Combating tax evasion is part of tax administration in most countries. As globalization progresses, tax evasion and tax fraud are growing. All this has a negative impact on tax revenues of state budgets. Globalization is helping to apply similar practices by states against tax evasion. Within the EU, it is mainly about harmonization and common procedures for VAT. Revenues from VAT are a significant revenue of the state budget also in the Czech Republic, therefore various tools are used in the constant fight against VAT fraud.
Purpose of the article: The aim of the article is to evaluate the effectiveness of securing orders in the fight against VAT fraud in the Czech Republic.
Methods: Data for the monitored period 2014 - 2018 were obtained from documents of the Financial Administration of the Czech Republic. The analysis of securing orders and the estimation of the costs of their issuance is performed based on the stated data. Subsequently, the effectiveness of issued securing orders in the monitored period is evaluated.
Findings & Value added: In the context of globalization, a number of studies deal mainly with the causes and effects of tax arrears, tax evasion and the tax gap. This paper discusses the fight against tax evasion, focusing on a specific instrument - securing orders. Based on the analyzes, an estimate is made of the costs of issuing securing orders. Subsequently, the effectiveness of securing orders is evaluated as one of the instruments in the fight against VAT fraud.

Is the legislation important in the context of transfer pricing?
Authors: Zvarikova Katarina , Kovalova Erika 
Published: January 2021

Research background: The continuing trend of globalization and interconnection of national economics is reviling many opportunities as well as threats arising from this development. The transfer pricing is one of these issues as a legal framework to adjust the tax base. But on the other hand, this issue also affects other important areas and reveals its risks. There is focused on the transfer pricing and its legal framework in these presented papers as recent years have indicated that there is a huge necessity to regulate and legislatively define the transfer pricing on the part of the state. And although we can take the opinion that this is a modern issue, we have been encountering this problem since 1915 and since this time it is gaining in its importance.
Purpose of the article: We can distinguish two different parties. On the one hand, there is a company (most of the time its multinational company) with its goal to achieve the best possible efficiency also by paying the lowest possible taxes. On the other hand, we recognize the state with his aim of optimal tax policy allowing it to maximize the amount of collected taxes, i. e. it should be in the best interest of the state to define the transfer pricing precisely to prevent possible tax evasion.
Methods: The main method used in the article is literature research and analysis of the law documents.
Findings & Value added: The aim of this article is to identify the basic legislative guidelines in the field of transfer pricing in the international level as well as in the level of the Slovak republic.

The dynamics of innovation in the ex-communist countries in Europe in the context of globalization
Authors: Bran Florina , Niculescu Marcela Antoaneta , Dumitrache Victor Marian , Gombos Svetlana Platagea 
Published: January 2021

Research background: Even if they share a similar background, the ex-communist European countries have started since the ‘90s to differentiate one from another in terms of development. Nowadays, the gaps between them are significant in many aspects of the socio-economic environment, including innovation. Measurements done by Cornell University, INSEAD, and WIPO through the Global Innovation Index give us the opportunity to compare the achievements from the last 30 years of the ex-communist countries.
Purpose of the article: The purpose of this paper is to point out the major gaps between the European ex-communist countries in terms of innovation – both innovation inputs and innovation outputs – in the context of globalization, and the way the globalization fostered or suppressed the innovation.
Methods: We will do a comparative analysis of the indicators that the input and output indexes are based on – regulatory environment, education, general infrastructure, credit, investment, knowledge workers, knowledge creation, knowledge impact, online creativity, intangible assets.
Findings & Value added: This paper may add value to the economic and educational policies in the ex-communist countries by identifying the policies that proved their effectiveness in increasing innovation rates, policies that can be adapted and then adopted by the ex-communist countries that are less innovative.
Impact of Globalisation on Data Security – Authentication Issues
Authors: Hub Miloslav , Příhodová Agnès Kateřina 
Published: January 2021

Research background:In today’s globalised world, there is an increasing need for reliable verification of users’ identity accessing various types of information systems. This verification is realised through authentication, which is traditionally divided according to the kind of identification mark that is used: knowledge authentication (e.g., passwords, control questions), authentication through an authentication object (e.g., magnetic cards, smart cards) and biometric authentication (e.g., voice, face recognition). However, it should be noted that this identity may not only be the specific identity of the user but also, for example, his group affiliation or ability.Purpose of the article:This paper aims to identify and describe the impact of globalisation on selected types of authentication.Methods:As the representative of the current methods of authentication of persons are selected a password authentication and hand-based biometric authentication. The most often used methods of password attacks are simulated through mathematical modelling, and the results are compared concerning the timeline. Through modelling, multi characteristics authentication using the thermal characteristics of the hand will be presented.Findings & Value added:Through mathematical modelling, the article demonstrates the influence of globalisation on the resilience of passwords to the most commonly used attacks and discusses the impact of globalisation on the requirements for modern forms of authentication.
