A comprehensive study of digitalization is of fundamental importance for the development of the national economic system – an assessment of the features of the development of the digital economy in the regions of the Russian Federation. In order to identify the competitiveness of Russian Federation in terms of digitalization, the authors performed international comparisons on the values of various digitalization indices. In order to study the level of development of the digital economy in the regional context, the authors formed a system of indicators. The article highlights groups of indicators that characterize the readiness of the population, organizations, and public administration. The paper gives the characteristics of the fluctuation of the values of indicators that characterize the level of development of the digital economy in the subjects. According to the results of comparing the indicators that characterize the readiness for the digital economy in the federal districts in 2018 with the average Russian value, the authors identified the leading and lagging federal districts. The study performed the ranking of federal districts according to the values of indicators characterizing the development of the digital economy, as a result of which, received conclusions regarding the uniformity of the development of the considered components of the digital economy. The paper systematizes recommendations for the implementation of multidimensional groupings of regions both in individual areas and in the entire set of indicators proposed for analysis. Based on the results of grouping by the method of cluster analysis, the authors formulate key conclusions for groups of subjects of the Russian Federation.The analysis made it possible to see not only the differentiation of the subjects of Russian Federation in terms of the level of development of the digital economy, but also the “weak points” of digitalization in different regions. The results obtained in the study can be useful for statisticians and economists when conducting research on the degree of informatization of the population and the economy both in the country as a whole and in its territories.

Published: May 2021

The article provides a brief overview of the emergence of the legal market of online cinemas in Russia. The paper reveals that the Governments of many countries have a national policy that is aimed at maintaining internal programming on traditional video platforms. Such policies range from licensing, which requires serving the “public interest” and defines rules for the distribution of certain types of content produced domestically, to requiring content distributors to contribute to the financing of the production of domestic content. The authors investigate that during the implementation of these rules, the Russian government decided on the allocation of limited resources. There was also regulation on whether platforms can solely decide what content to offer their users, or whether viewers should also participate directly. The study concludes that the transition from traditional platforms to online distribution can reduce the effectiveness of existing regulatory regimes and deprive traditional platforms of audience and revenue.The world and Russian experiences of using the Internet prove that today modern information and telecommunications technologies can contain real threats to the violation of fundamental rights and freedoms of citizens, as well as to question the security of society and the state. The only exceptions are progressive or innovative areas related to the provision of new services and the expansion of opportunities for socio-economic development.As a result of the study, the paper identified four problems of Russian film distribution on digital platforms. The authors chose piracy as the first problem of online cinemas. Pirate sites not only illegally copy content from online movie theaters, but they also create copies of their own services to transfer their servers to another platform in case of blocking. The second problem was highlighted by the requirement for foreign owners. The third problem was highlighted by the high cost of online movie theater subscriptions. The authors consider the fourth problem the lack of financial support from the state.

Poverty – prosperity leap debates have been rising steeply across the globe in recent decades. Taking Taiwan with its Li Kwohting’s legacies as a good illustration how the agrarian-based colony turned into the ‘Silicon Island’ for a comparatively small period the authors analyse the man-made policies on making the ‘Taiwan’s Economic Miracle’. The article studies a ‘twilight zone’ within the gap as well as both the prerequisites and outcomes of the ‘Taiwan’s Godfather of Technology’ stewardship. The paper also considers the factors which determine the rapid growth of Taiwan.Despite the almost universal characteristics of the East Asia countries, differences between them remain substantial. This circumstance gives the authors a room for speculations over the reasons of one country becoming the world leaders. The authors use the ‘Four Asian Tigers’ as Hong Kong, Singapore, South Korea and Taiwan for comparison. China is also included in the comparative analysis for better understanding. The study showed that the success phenomenon of the country is being determined in the national cultural context, inside of which the economy develops. The Geert Hofstede’s Six Cultural Dimensions model was utilized for employing the indexes as follows: Power Distance, Collectivism vs. Individualism, Uncertainty Avoidance Index, Femininity vs.Masculinity, Short-Term vs. Long-Term Orientation and Restraint vs. Indulgence. The cultural dimensions typology of the Geert Hofstede helped to explain the national predominance for this or that economic and political initiatives of the government, the comparison showed that the core of nation’s prosperity development mechanisms is incorporated in the Taiwanese cultural code.

Gastro-retentive drug delivery systems (GRDDS) attributes to gastric maintenance time combined with the medication discharge for expanded time has essentially improved patient consistency. Medications for which the chief fundamental site of ingestion is the stomach or the proximal piece of the small digestive tract or have the assimilation issue in the distal piece of the digestive system are reasonable for GRDDS. Orally sustaining or controlling the drug release combined with gastric retention property can avoid recurrent dosing in the case of drugs with short half-lives. GRDDS is also effective in locally treating gastric and duodenal ulcers, including oesophagitis and Helicobacter pylori infections. In this current survey, the physiology of the stomach alongside its motility design, typically called migrating motor complex (MMC), was discussed. Various approaches to GRDDS with a focus on floating drug delivery systems (FDDS) were reviewed. The vacillations in plasma drug focus are limited and portion subordinate unfriendly impacts can be forestalled by FDDS, particularly for the medications with a restricted restorative list. Slow arrival of the medication into the body by means of FDDS limits the counter movement prompting higher medication proficiency. Further, the Advantages, limitations, suitable drug candidates, factors affecting and Future challenges of FDDS were discussed.
