The advent of "world economic transition" and the formation of a multipolar world is closely linked, according to experts, with loss of globalization advances, which strengthens regionalism, increases diversification and fragmentation of the modern world, creating risks and threats to the world development. In this light studying the spatial organization of the global economy becomes more important, and at the same time that complicates the choice of priorities in the research activities of the Department of geography of the world economy, Faculty of Geography, Moscow State Lomonosov University in 2016-20, requiring a new research “ideology”. The article summarizes some ideas expressed by the department staff. It specifies that concept of territorial division of labor, as well as the defined set of key actors in the world economy and common assumptions regarding their contributions to its development needs a significant revision. The above firstly concerns giant developing countries, in particular rapidly growing China – a kind of locomotive entraining other developing states. Further, the impact of multinationals on the overall architecture and the territorial organization of the global economy becomes more and more tangible. This phenomenon requires the creation of a new scientific area of concern – the corporate geography as a tool to thoroughly investigate the transnational division of labor. Changes in the balance of acting forces are closely related to changes in industry composition and spatial organization of the global economy. The article raises the issues of development of such processes as tertiarization of the economy, reindustrialization and neoindustrialization, the latter being understood as an evolutionary transition to a knowledge-intensive, high-tech, mass labor-replacing and environmentally efficient industrial production. Basing on preliminary research from the standpoint of a relatively new methodological approach – formation of value chains – the vector of "geographical transition" " in their creation from developed to developing countries was designated. This means increasing complexity of the territorial structure of the world economy and an increase in the importance of semi-periphery. A spatial projection of globalization processes in the form of emerging “archipelago of cities”, which consolidates the international network of TNCs as the supporting node frame of the global economy requires close attention and analysis. The need of comprehending the study scope in the field of geography of the world economy in medium Atlas Information Systems (AIS), which in terms of functionality belong to the upper class of electronic atlases, is noted.

The article is devoted to the analysis of the content, essence and social consequences of the transformation of employment in industrially developed countries after the Second World War in the context of globalization - americanization - deglobalization of the world economy. The author pays great attention to exposing the modern mythologization of the digitalization of labor and labor relations in the countries of the global North in order to cover up the true essence of various forms of non-standard work, which has become widespread in the modern world-system within the framework of digital capitalism. At the center of the study and research of the problems of destandardization and precarization of labor in the world of digital capitalism is the digitalization of the world of work and labor relations and the impact of the digital economy on the situation of workers in Western countries, especially in the United States, which has become a role model throughout the world, including the countries with "economies in transition". The author draws special attention to the fact that the introduction of non-standard employment into economic practice in the West was caused by the transition of economically developed countries to the new social structures of accumulation by means of withdrawal, that is, by reducing labor costs within the framework of the neoliberal economy. Based on the study and analysis of foreign sources, the author concludes that the COVID-19 pandemic has become a trigger to the exacerbation of the current systemic crisis of global capitalism, which puts on the agenda the need to search for and implement new, fairer and more humane forms of world order under the slogans of the social movement of alterglobalists "People are higher than profits!" and "Another world is possible!"

By applying the thesis about branding as a modificer of consumer behavior under the impact of cardinal changes of the world economy this paper extends our understanding of branding dualism that could lead to sustainable consumption as well as to unsustainable one. The purpose of this paper is to provide knowledge about impacts of two megatrends of the modern world economy on consumer behavior while the world/domestic product market is transforming into the simulacra market, and to contribute to the current discourse about marketing ideology (in other terms — consumerism), irrational consumption, and overconsumption that are stemmed from the profit-oriented marketing wherein the branding plays a role of the powerful booster of unsustainable consumption. Finally, an appeal to academia has been made to search for effective ways to apply branding tools for achieving the goal of sustainable consumption and production. Thematic content analysis explores multiple (mainly international) sources focused on topics of sustainable development, digital transformation, semiotics and emerging simulacrum market, dualism of branding, marketing ideology and consumerism related to modifying the model of consumer behavior. These sources were analyzed through a sustainable development goals lens. Th e research has identified two directions of the branding impact on consumer behavior due to the phenomenon of branding dualism — towards the sustainable consumption or vice versa depending on accepting or rejecting the sustainability branding strategy, respectively. By applying semantic concepts, the simulacra market paradigm diff erent from the real market paradigm is used to assess contemporary changes in consumer behavior. This unconventional investigation into the branding dualism, including the impact of the above-mentioned trends on it, extends the understanding of the marketing up to the sphere of consumer society ideology and highlights the importance of sustainability branding for achieving the goal of sustainable consumption. By integrating semantics concepts into the marketing discipline, this paper explores the dual role of branding in modifying the model of consumption under the impact of world economy megatrends and provides suggestions for business and academia about how best to overcome perceived barriers to sustainable consumption. These insights have relevance to dissimilarities between social consequences of branding in the frame of micromarketing and macromarketing or macrosocial marketing and could help alter consumption practices to make them more sustainable.
