Modernization in Russia is objectively dictated by the tightening of global competition between countries and the need for structural optimization of the domestic economy. In today´s environment the results of the modernization of the Russian economy influence directly on the welfare of the country in the future, elimination of the technological gap, improving efficiency in all sectors of the economy and professional fields. The process of modernization is aimed at solving a minimum of three tasks: to ensure structural balance of the national economy; technological innovation; the formation of an innovative model of economic development. Formation of such a model of the economy implies an increase in the economy of knowledge-intensive and high-tech industries. With two possible and mutually exclusive approaches to the state economy modernization and technological development, autocratic and democratic, the latter is the most effective, since upgrading cannot be achieved without direct participation of business, civil society and individual citizens with a high level of competence of the government. Federal authorities at the same time play the role of a facilitator, providing legal, organizational and financial support, and as well as a system of processes. Economic modernization and technological development will require training of skilled human capital, which may be provided by the proper functioning of the system of education in Russia. Development of education should be coordinated with social and economic development, and activities of educational institutions should be integrated into innovation processes at the national and regional levels. High importance in solving these problems is given to the development of mechanisms of interaction of educational institutions with the business environment, general public and to changing the format of relations with the state education authorities.

The subject of the research is the introduction of artificial intelligence as a technological innovation into the Russian economic development. The relevance of the problem is due to the fact that the Russian market of artificial intelligence is still in the infancy and the necessity to bridge the current technological gap between Russia and the leading economies of the world is coming to the forefront. The financial sector, the manufacturing industry and the retail trade are the drivers of the artificial intelligence development. However, company managers in Russia are not prepared for the practical application of expensive artificial intelligence technologies. Under these circumstances, the challenge is to develop measures to support high-tech projects of small and medium-sized businesses, given that the technological innovation considered can accelerate the development of the Russian economy in the energy sector fully or partially controlled by the government as well as in the military-industrial complex and the judicial system.The purposes of the research were to examine the current state of technological innovations in the field of artificial intelligence in the leading countries and Russia and develop proposals for improving the AI application in the Russian practices.The paper concludes that the artificial intelligence is a breakthrough technology with a great application potential. Active promotion of the artificial intelligence in companies significantly increases their efficiency, competitiveness, develops industry markets, stimulates introduction of new technologies, improves product quality and scales up manufacturing. In general, the artificial intelligence gives a new impetus to the development of Russia and facilitates its entry into the five largest world’s economies.

The article is devoted to the study of the topical scientific and practical problem of the macroeconomic theory of innovation, which has a significant impact on technological development and the formation of a new paradigm, ensuring the stability of the development of high-tech industries. The purpose of this article is to determine the technology of innovation and the formation of a new technological paradigm. To achieve this goal, the following tasks were completed: scientific approaches to the development of innovation technologies and the formation of a new technological paradigm were analyzed, the role of investments in innovative activities was determined. The scientific discussion is assessed in accordance with the state policy of innovative development, the fundamental differences in the theoretical argumentation of the supporters of neoliberalism, liberalism and classicism are revealed. The position of economists who support the monetarist theory and evaluate it from the point of view of an effective regulator is analyzed. Innovative technological development is determined by qualitative changes in the institutional framework and timely, high-quality transformation processes in the public administration system; depends on the chosen vector of economic theory based on knowledge and practical experience. The definition of the technological paradigm as the foundation of evolutionary transformations based on methodology, methodology, technologies, general strategy of socio-economic development and formed approaches is given. The state policy of innovative and technological development is a methodological basis for economic development using various theories of attracting investment in innovation. The effectiveness of innovation in technological development has been proven throughout the entire historical development of the Russian economy and directly depends on the fundamental prerequisites for the effective use of new knowledge.

Topicality. The growing urgency of the problem of productivity of entrepreneurial activity increasing today is substantiated by the fact that in the world due to the paradigm of sustainable development a new direction is formed - the use of innovative sources of economic growth, with full support for productive innovative entrepreneurial activity. According to the fact that Ukraine is also on the path of innovative economic development, in recent years a number of legal documents have been adopted in order to promote comprehensive employment, high labor costs, accumulation of human and social capital, development of entrepreneurial activity, strengthening middle class, raising social standards and guarantees. However, there is still no systematic view on how to solve the problem of the productivity increasing ofentrepreneurial activity, which is the basis for sustainable innovative development of any country. Aim and tasks. The purpose of the article is to determine the strategic directions of business productivity in Ukraine within the state regulation of the business environment, which requires the following tasks: to explore trends and identify key issues of business productivity, which will identify strategic areas of business productivity, which should be considered as a means of solving existing problems. Research results. A comparative analysis of the economic productivity of the EU, the USA, Japan and Ukraine has shown that there is a common tendency for all countries of its reduction, which caused by the factor of deindustrialization. The study of business productivity in Ukraine that is expressed as gross value added at constant prices revealed that the indicator "sales per 1 employee" does not give an idea of the real productivity of enterprises, because this indicator is the result of activity of scope of enterprises, namely � of the company itself and its suppliers. In this case, the further the company in the technological chain, the greater sales volume is and the less this indicator reflects the real productivity of the enterprise. The relatively high productivity of domestic enterprises at value added is actually offset by the high costs of enterprises from other operating and other ordinary activities (especially under the COVID-19 pandemic influence and as a result from other emergencies) and, as a result, profitability from all activities of enterprises is low. It is revealed that the technological gap between Ukraine and developed countries is deepening every year, which requires formation of an innovative model of high-tech development. This, in turn, requires stimulating of the development of industrial sector, especially processing and manufacturing branches, as a basis for creating of high-tech jobs, increasing productivity and as the locomotive of growth for other sectors of the economy. It is proved that in order to increase the productivity of entrepreneurship, a comprehensive mutually agreed improvement of the state tax, credit-financial, scientific-technological, personnel, social policy and restoration of the state industrial policy is urgently needed. A system of strategic directions for increasing of the productivity of entrepreneurial activity has been developed, the criterion for the implementation of which is the growth of value added from its implementation at the level of not less than 5% per year. Conclusion. The article proves that achieving of productivity growth of entrepreneurial activity in our country is possible due to the formation of favorable conditions through the introduction of organizational and economic instruments of financial and credit, tax, scientific and technological, personnel, social, industrial policy for state support of business structures capable of producing knowledge-intensive products with a high content of added value, creating of an appropriate investment climate, ensuring the reduction of Ukraine's technological gap comparing with countries- technological leaders, which is necessary for its integration into the global economic space on a parity basis. Indicators of such a favorable environment can be the following: the formation of the optimal level of tax burden on business structures; formation of the optimal level of availability of borrowed funds for business structures; growth of the share of industrial business structures that implement technological innovations; growth in the number of introduced new technological processes and innovative products; reducing of share of the depreciated fixed assets on industrial enterprises.

The article attempts to assess the results of the development of the Russian economy from the moment of privatization to the present. The urgency of the problem lies in the fact that, despite significant resources, including human capital, the economy is stagnating, there are no structural reforms, and high-tech companies do not appear. The main thing is not creating conditions for business development on the principles of self-organization: entrepreneurship, initiative, personal competence and investment. Reforming the socio-economic system of the USSR has no historical analogue, and is perceived as a unique practice of testing some theoretical positions and hypotheses that guided researchers and entrepreneurs in the framework of a market economy, for example, the theory of market equilibrium, theory of the firm, theory of preferences, and others. Russia has demonstrated a kind of phenomenon, both from the point of view of theory and practice of market transformations, when it is not entrepreneurship, not the investment activity of business and the population, but the narrowly selfish interests of persons affiliated with the government, began to determine market processes, such an economy was called the «economy of individuals», And in the case of a direct focus on the state budget,» the economy of the distribution». The transformations could be based on the market experience of a large number of countries, both developed and developing (China), this has not been done. Time was lost on the creation of new jobs; in the industrial orientation of the state, there were no priorities for the development of important industries for national competitiveness. As a result, the economic growth was lost.

To talk about technology when exploring the relationship between states and nature may seem paradoxical. The paradoxical nature of this assignment is twofold. First, many argue that to speak of the technological is to speak of the anti-political—here technology is understood not as something of the state, but as an external arena that can simultaneously be used by the government to verify its policies, or, if unchecked, undermine the governing capacities of politicians (Barry 2001: ch. 1). Others claim that technology is the antithesis of nature—if nature is the un-produced eternal substratum of existence, technology is a socio-cultural artefact, a fragment of produced nature and a mechanism for ecological transformation (Luke 1996). Despite this apparent conundrum, this chapter argues that technology provides a crucial basis upon which many of the interplays between the state and nature continue to be expressed. Within his recent book on the links between states, government, and technologies—Political Machines—Andrew Barry (2001: 9) suggests that we need to think of technologies in two related but distinct ways. He argues that our first recourse when considering technologies is often to technological devices—or those labour-saving and labour-enhancing gadgets, tools, instruments, and gizmos that make new socio-economic practices possible and speed-up existing exercises (see also Harvey 2002). Secondly, Barry discerns a broader understanding of technology, which incorporates a wider set of procedures, rules, and calculations in and through which a technological device is animated and put to use. In this chapter we explore the technological devices and supporting technological infrastructures through which the contemporary politics of state– nature relations are being played out. We interpret the role of technology within state–nature relations in two main ways. First, we explore the ways in which various technologies have been synthesized with and within the state apparatuses in order to enhance governments’ capacities to manage nature. The role of technology in facilitating the governance of nature can be conceived of at a number of levels. It can, for example, be related to a Marxist reading of technologies as tools/machines deployed in the physical transformation of the natural world (Harvey 2002: 534).

Topicality. The dominance in the national economy of resource-intensive multifield technologies and the lack of a sound public policy governing the formation, accumulation, storage, recycling, disposal and disposal of waste has led to a critical situation characterized by the further development of environmental threats. The slow pace of adoption and implementation of legal norms regarding the introduction of innovative technologies by types of economic activity, the inefficient use of the nature of resource potential and the unpreparedness of the business environment to intensify the introduction of the innovative model of the "green" economy lead to deepening the ecological crisis and aggravation of the socio-economic situation in society. After all, the high level of waste generation and low rates of their use as secondary raw materials have led to the fact that in Ukraine, in the industrial and municipal sector, significant volumes of solid waste accumulate each year, of which only a small part is used as secondary material resources, the rest fall into landfills. This fact determines the need for reform and development, taking into account global experience of the entire legal and economic system that regulates the use of natural resources, since the difference in the situation in Ukraine, as compared with other developed countries, lies in large volumes of waste generation and lack of infrastructure for handling them. . The "green" economy is an inalienable and effective tool for activities in all areas of life, namely in the areas of transport, agriculture, waste management and energy. This is not only an opportunity but a compulsory development path for all countries and states, including the EU member states..Aim and tasks. The purpose of the article is to determine the instrumental principles of regulation and to ensure the economic development of the process of environmentalization of the national model of the "green" economy. In order to achieve this goal, the study of the genesis of theoretical concepts concerning the ecologization of the development of the national model of the green economy, the determination of normative and legal instruments for enhancing the establishment of the principles of cleaner production and the substantiation of the scientific provisions regarding the development of the organizational and economic scenario for the development of the national green economy model are presented.Research results. The institutional principles of ecologization of the development of the national model of the "green" economy are considered. It is determined that further economic growth depends on the formation of an effective innovation policy of the state, based on the latest scientific and technological achievements and the transfer of environmentally sound technologies; ensuring the transfer of scientific research into resource-saving, knowledge-intensive, small and non-waste technologies, competitive goods and services, and activating processes for the formation of an ecologically oriented business environment in accordance with the global challenges of world development. It is substantiated that at the present stage it is important to ensure maximum full realization of the economic potential of regions in the strategy of formation of high-performance ecological-economic system, which is possible only at the expense of the implementation of the course of the "green" economy. The directions and priorities of development of secondary resource use are determined, taking into account both modern real possibilities and long-term economic, social and environmental interests of society; wide introduction of public-private partnership, cooperation and cooperation in central and local executive authorities, local self-government bodies; scientific, technological and methodical provision of waste management on an innovative basis; a significant increase in the role of regions and civil society in the reform of waste management; provision of financing and implementation of certain measures to further improve the management of waste management on a traditional basis. Three groups of tools have been formulated to promote resource-efficient low carbon economic development, as well as to monitor the transition process: imperative, economic and dispositive tools.Conclusions. It is substantiated that the institutional mechanisms of institutionalization of the process of environmentalization of the Ukrainian national green economy model can be considered: the dynamics of institutional and legislative and regulatory reforms in Ukraine regarding the implementation of the green economy model in the state policy mechanism, the development of state and regional governance institutions, the transformation of social relations and modification of administrative management with saturation of its ecological dominant and development of measures for priority determination their segments of environmentalization of national development. It is determined that the concept of the development of the "green" economy should determine the economic component that cements the growth of economic potential in the sectoral section of the state, the social component that serves as the basis for improving the life support system of Ukraine and the ecological component that forms the basis for implementing an environmentally sound policy of the state. The said confirms the urgency and importance of the institutional provision to enhance the process of environmentalization of the Ukrainian national green economy model, which should include the main legislative regulations of the state environmental policy and the international tendencies of ecologization of social development on the basis of the "green" economy.

A good business environment means a catalyst for small and medium enterprises, a good business environment facilitates development and sustainability of small and medium enterprises. The development of micro, small and medium enterprises (MSME) is very important to the economic development of a country, and intentionally, MSMEs are considered to be amongst the most efficient instruments for economies in transition, because of their production of sustainable economic growth, employment and poverty reduction.Small and medium enterprises are a generator of new products and technologies; they are are a source of new ideas and advanced strategies of management. Development and sustainability of small and medium enterprises depends on the business environment, which implies a series of social, legal, economic, political or institutional conditions, which are uncontrollable in nature, and affect the organizations’ functions.This study addresses the baseline documents which were taken into consideration by the Government of the Republic of Kosovo in developing economic policies, thereby analysing their advantages and disadvantages. By analysing reports, statistics on MSMEs and other documents, and further complementing the study by a research section (business survey), this paper aims at identifying the key problems faced by the MSMEs in Kosovo, and provide adequate recommendations which may be of service in resolving such problems, but also resulting into a better business environment, and economic development in general.

Social and economic development of the country is still relevant to activate the transition to a healthy lifestyle of the Russian population. The reseearch shows that this is a factor that contributes to the increase in the efficiency of citizens and ensures the extension of the healthy life of people. The key task is to provide the population with the necessary conditions for comfortable physical education and sports training. The current form of training is fitness, a number of areas and techniques that allow you to work with people who have health restrictions. A key problem in the development of mass sports in the country through the activation of the fitness industry is the payment of these services, which are not available in terms of price and territorial factors for all segments of the population. At the same time, the state focuses on young people studying in educational institutions, while older people do not have access to free sports services everywhere. The situation is aggravated by the current socio-economic situation due to the pandemic, as a result of which it is not possible to use all the capacities of the fitness industry, while reducing the real disposable income of the population. An alternative to fitness centers in recent years has been home training through the purchase of content, but this also has limitations for the General public due to its fee and technical requirements. The role of the state in these conditions should increase, since the fitness industry is now not only an element of ensuring the transition of the population to a healthy lifestyle, but also a large number of jobs. We should also continue to increase funding for projects to provide an accessible environment for mass sports for the population.
