The social and economic processes resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic are a new global factor that highlights setting out conditions for sustainable development of economic systems. The authors propose a hypothesis that a stable growth rate of national economy is ensured by qualitative and systemic improvement of leading innovative indicators. Thus, the purpose of the paper is to study the dynamics of and correlation between indicators of innovative development of territorial and sectoral economies. The paper presents economic and statistical study of the volume of innovative products and performed services, funding of technological innovations; the creation and application of new technologies. To ensure representativity of the sample, the authors analyzed the leading performance indicators in Russian R&D organizations from January to June 2020. The parameters of the analysis were the location in a federal district and a form of ownership. A direct correlation between R&D costs and the average number of researchers has been revealed. Sustainable development of economic systems in a new economic reality is possible only with the application of effective methods of analyzing innovation costs, studying laws and factors of innovation development, forms of endogenous and exogenous technological exchange for all economic entities.

Rational Management

A commonly used strategy in production enterprises is the idea of sustainable development. For an idea to be effectively implemented, it is essential to have competent and well-informed staff. This condition is necessary, but not sufficient. Still, the introduction of changes in the enterprise—including rational management of resources, as well as fair distribution of benefits and social development—requires acceptance on the part of employees. The implementation of this idea entails the need to introduce organizational changes, new technologies and innovative products. Currently, this direction in development is gradually beginning to determine the competitiveness of an enterprise. The present article discusses the results of a questionnaire survey in one production enterprise; the survey aimed at assessing work conditions. The research results were to show how the current changes related to the idea of sustainable development being implemented in this enterprise are assessed by the employees in the production sector. The obtained results are also to serve as a basis for developing a strategy for introducing further changes in this enterprise. The quantitative research included an evaluation of 24 research variables, which were divided into nine thematic groups relevant to work conditions in the enterprise. The research covered three basic groups of factors: work characteristics, human resource management policies and the social context of work. A global assessment of the enterprise’s performance was also undertaken. The research therefore focused on the practical aspects of the activity carried out by the enterprise. The results obtained should provide a basis for assessing the potential for introducing innovative solutions in line with the idea of sustainable development as well as improvements in human resource management. This basis is also particularly important for implementing such solutions in the enterprise which are in line with changes related to the concept of Industry 4.0.

Sustainable development is a type of development that advocates first of all the harmonization between economic development and environmental protection, adding social progress; it would therefore be a development in which high and stable growth in the production of goods and services is compatible with widespread social progress, environmental protection, and prudent and efficient use of natural resources. Among the different sectoral areas transferred by the idea of sustainable development is undoubtedly the field of urban planning and housing. The activity generated in cities has an important environmental impact, so it is necessary to orient urban structures, homes, and buildings under premises that are as respectful as possible with the environment, also taking advantage of its economic potential and its effect on the social fabric that inhabits it. It is about promoting integrated actions in the urban environment that are in tune with the objectives.

Introduction. The features of social innovations classification are investigated. It allows them to be identified among the whole set of innovations in the social sphere of public systems. The approach is based on the differentiation between the main features that are characteristic for the given type of innovation. Purpose. The article aims to define the peculiarities of social innovations classification from a viewpoint of sustainable development for social and economic systems of different levels. Results. The main features of social innovations classification in terms of sustainable development have been described. The differentiation of social innovations into "deterministic" and "veritable" considering the basic peculiarities of social and economic systems development has been suggested. It has been specified that deterministic social innovations relating to innovation-oriented social and economic systems arise as the positive externals in the result of introducing technical, technological, economic, environmental and other innovations, thus, “veritable” social innovations are generated exceptionally for public development. The generation of such types of social innovation is characterized by the prospect of economic potential of the social and economic system.

The article presents an epistemological analysis of definitions that reflect various aspects of the economic category “development” used within the system approach. The analysis shows that these definitions mostly do not single out the features of the social component of the economic system and management tasks are defined from the subjective point of view of those who fall under managerial influence. It has been noted that this approach can be called mechanistic, since the behavioral characteristics of the social component are neglected and the management of the system is considered from the standpoint of one-vector influence of decision-makers. It has been argued that this negatively affects the effectiveness of development management due to the diversity of stakeholders’ interests. An explication of the essential content of “development” definition has been made and components that reflect the specifics of the socio-economic systems management according to the concept of “sustainable development” have been identified. Management of socio-economic system structural balance has been proposed to consider as a dynamic process of forming the optimal proportions of its future state, which is determined by the equal vectors of economic and other interests of its actors and their positions coordination meeting the priorities of sustainable development and competitiveness and following the principles of stakeholder interaction and social dialogue. It has been noted that the management of the socio-economic systems development should be carried out both from the standpoint of achieving structural balance of the system and taking into account the development goals of the system (increasing competitiveness through quality change).

ABSTRACT This paper develops and analyzes a taxonomy that divides the Federative Units of Brazil into groups with similar characteristics, distributed over the indicators of the four dimensions of sustainable development described by the Dashboard of Sustainability method. The research methodology adopted was multivariate analysis by interdependence technique through cluster analysis. The results suggest that on average, the federal units contribute differently to the different dimensions of sustainable development of the country and form distinct groups. Brazil’s sustainable development index has an environmental dimension with a strong contribution from the grouping of states in the North and Northeast regions. The social dimension is positively influenced by the grouping composed of the federative units of the South and Midwest regions. In contrast, the economic dimension is positively influenced by all federal units, however, in a different way. The institutional dimension was mainly influenced by Ceará and Bahia (Northeast region), all South and Southeast states and the Federal District, Mato Grosso and Mato Grosso do Sul (Center-West region), all components of a single grouping.

Šiandienis pasaulis kenčia nuo žmogaus savanaudiškumo, kai vadovaujamasi tik savo asmeniniais interesais ir pamirštama gamta, jos vertinimas ir saugojimas. Gamta kiekvieną minutę niokojama, teršiama žmogaus veiklos atliekų, be saiko naikinami jos natūralieji ištekliai. Nors gamtai duotas savireguliacijos gebėjimas atsikurti, tačiau tobulėjant žmogaus kuriamoms technologijoms, gerėjant ekonominei situacijai, sveikatos priežiūrai beprotiškais tempais didėjanti pasaulio populiacija mažina arba net panaikina šitą gamtos atsikūrimo funkciją. XXI amžiuje ypač susirūpinta švaria ir saugia gamtine aplinka. Sukurtos darnaus vystymosi koncepcijos, akcentuojančios visuomenės, ekonomikos ir aplinkos tarpusavio darnią plėtrą ir bendradarbiavimą, tenkinant kiekvienos poreikius. Tačiau demografinės problemos stabdo šios idėjos įgyvendinimą. Todėl svarbu išsiaiškinti, kokį poveikį demografiniai veiksniai turi darnaus vystymosi politikos įgyvendinimui ir ar apskritai gali būti pasiektas konsensusas tarp šių dviejų veiksnių? Jei taip, tai kaip tai padaryti siekiant kuo geresnės žmonių gyvenimo kokybės, bet kartu labai saugant ir tausojant gamtą, bei jos išteklius.Šio mokslinio straipsnio tikslas – išanalizuoti demografinių veiksnių poveikį darniam vystymuisi. Aptariant darnaus vystymosi apibrėžimą, koncepciją, naudojamas aprašomasis metodas. Demografiniams veiksniams, jų pokyčių įtakai darnumui ir iš to kylančiai problematikai analizuoti pasitelkiami kritinės probleminės, lyginamosios analizės, mokslinės argumentacijos ir literatūros analizės metodai.Reikšminiai žodžiai: darnus vystymasis, aplinkosauga, ekonomika, socialinė aplinka, demografiniai veiksniai, populiacija, urbanizacija, išsilavinimas, gyventojų amžiaus pokyčiai, valstybė, visuomenė, darnaus vystymosi strategija.The Impact of Demographic Factors on the Sustainable DevelopmentToma Ivanauskaitė SummaryThe nowadays’ world is suffering from human sel­fishness, which follows only peoples’ personal inte­rests, whereas the nature and its value have been for­gotten. Every minutethe nature is being devastated, polluted by human activity waste. Nature has been given a self-regulation ability to recover and purify. However, the developing new technologies, while improving the economic situation, health care, the hectic world’s growing population, reduce or elimi­nate more of this natural function of recovery. In the twenty-first century, of particular concern is the cle­an and safe natural environment. There was formu­ lated the concept of sustainable development, which emphasizes the social, economic and environmental development and cooperation in meeting the needs of each of them. However, the demographic problems impede the idea. Therefore, it is important to under­stand how demographic factors affect the implemen­tation of sustainable development policies and whether there can be a consensus between these two factors. If so, how to improve the quality of life, at the same time protecting and preserving the nature and its resources? The aim of this article is to analyze the effects of demo­graphic factors on sustainable development.

The article discusses the destructive factors of sustainable development of the sphere of subsoil use: in the environmental sector - the destruction of natural objects and environmental pollution, in the social sphere - the deterioration of public health, stratification of the population by property status, by the level of financial support, in the technological sector - both the remaining obsolete technologies and new technologies that are not provided with a comprehensive analysis of the consequences their use. Here destructive factors are born not only by the remaining outdated technologies, but also by new technologies; a comprehensive (environmental, social, medical, economic, cultural, ethical) analysis of the consequences of their use is needed. The concept of sustainable development of the subsoil use sphere should be supplemented by appropriate mechanisms for reducing, reducing and neutralizing various destructive factors. The article provides examples of preventing destructive environmental and socio-economic phenomena in the field of subsoil use (State of El Salvador).

Sustainable development was chosen by the United Nations as the key concept of the future in the 21st century, which led to the emergence of other economic concepts, such as green and blue economy, seen as contributing to the achievement of sustainable development goals (SDGs). In Russia, despite the ongoing processes of green transformation in some economic sectors and certain improvements in the green legislation and green finance, not all businesses and regions are ready to embrace sustainable development. This paper discusses two interconnected aspects of regional economic systems — their economic efficiency and environmental impact. The analysis focuses on the regions of the Ural Federal District and explores these regions’ transition to sustainable development by looking at their eco-intensity. Methodologically, the study relies on the methods of analysis and synthesis, statistical, comparative and causal analysis. Conceptually, we use the theoretical framework of sustainable development as a point of departure for our discussion. The results have shown, on the one hand, a decrease in the industrial pressure on the natural environment, related primarily to the enhanced resource efficiency of certain industries. On the other hand, less effort is now invested into minimising the negative impact on the environment in Ural regions. We have also identified those areas of sustainable development that hold most promise in the Russian context. Our findings can serve as a basis for the strategies of regional sustainable development and may be used for further research on socio-environmental and economic sustainability.

Subject. The article focuses on the innovative import substitution as a requirement for the socio-economic security of the Russian Federation. Objectives. We address theoretical and methodological issues of the innovation-driven import substitution in order to update, command and use brand-new technologies for purposes of the production and economy. Methods. The study is based on statistical and economic-mathematical methods and methods of comparative analysis. We also apply our own techniques for evaluating the innovative and technological potential of regions. Results. We analyzed key approaches to understanding the concept of import substitution. The article provides our own interpretation of socio-economic security threats as issues caused due to the underdeveloped domestic production of food and technologies, which are strategic for the appropriate technological independence. We analyzed the foreign practice of import substitution and discovered the specifics, issues and weaknesses of the import substitution policy that Russia currently promotes. The article unveils the substance and specifics of innovation within the import substitution course as a sub-system of public administration of local socio-economic processes. Illustrating the Ural Federal District, we determined capabilities of old industrial regions as promising points of innovative import substitution. Conclusions and Relevance. Innovative import substitution is extremely important as a requirement for the socio-economic security of the Russian Federation so as to technologically advance the Russian economy and make it more competitive and sustainable. The article formulates priorities and key tasks of the innovative import substitution strategy in the Russian Federation. The article is intended for experts in innovation processes at the regional and federal levels.

Abstract. Background: Tensions exist with various stakeholders facing competing interests in providing legal land-based and online regulated gambling products. Threats to revenue/taxation occur in response to harm minimisation and responsible gambling policies. Setting aside the concept of total prohibition, the objectives of responsible gambling are to encourage and/or restrict an individual’s gambling expenditure in terms of money and time to personally affordable limits. Stakeholder responsibilities: Governments craft the gambling environment through legislation, monitor compliance with regulatory requirements, and receive taxation revenue as a proportion of expenditure. Industry operators on the other hand, compete across market sectors through marketing and advertising, and through the development of commercially innovative products, reaping substantial financial rewards. Concurrently, governments are driven to respond to community pressures to minimize the range of negative gambling-related social, personal and economic harms and costs. Industry operators are exposed to the same pressures but additionally overlaid with the self-interest of avoiding the imposition of more stringent restrictive policies. Cooperation of stakeholders: The resulting tension between taxation revenue and profit making, harm minimization, and social impacts creates a climate of conflict between all involved parties. Data-driven policies become compromised by unsubstantiated claims of, and counter claims against, the nature and extent of gambling-related harms, effectiveness of policy strategies, with allegations of bias and influence associated with researchers supported by industry and government research funding sources. Conclusion: To effectively advance policies, it is argued that it is imperative that all parties collaborate in a cooperative manner to achieve the objectives of responsible gambling and harm minimization. This extends to and includes more transparent funding for researchers from both government and industry. Continued reliance on data collected from analogue populations or volunteers participating in simulated gambling tasks will not provide data capable of valid and reliable extrapolation to real gamblers in real venues risking their own funds. Failure to adhere to principles of corporate responsibility and consumer protection by both governments and industry will challenge the social licence to offer gambling products. Appropriate and transparent safeguards learnt from the tobacco and alcohol field, it is argued, can guide the conduct of gambling research.
