Abstract As a significant industrial and cultural phenomenon, the rise of new mainstream films and TV dramas in China embodies the inclusion of multiple cultures (mainstream culture, grassroot culture, youth culture, etc.) and the respect for diverse audiences. In particular, such trends bring into focus the youth market and explore the image-based expression of youth culture, subculture and fashion culture. However, this author argues that the production of such films and TV dramas also needs to further pursue market-orientated strategies, sustainable development, and conformity to industrial standards. In short, the production of new mainstream films and TV dramas should not revert to the previous production pattern of mainstream films.

Education system is viewed as an important constituent of sustainable development of a society. The spread of information technology reduces the need for mastering the computing apparatus of mathematics. On the other hand, firstly, the role of mathematics is not limited at least to its computing apparatus, the other components of the mathematical apparatus (for example, conceptual, methodological, etc.) and other aspects of mathematics (historical, activity, education of “intellectual honesty”, the formation of specific types of thinking, for example, geometric, ampect, linked with modelling, etc.) are also significant issues; secondly, the use of a computing apparatus is actually the final stage of other types of mathematical and “near-mathematical” activities. The article identifies three factors that ensure the relevance of mathematical education for the sustainable development: 1) the system of teaching mathematics should form the ability to use the mathematical apparatus for solving problems of business, management, engineering, social development, etc. (five components of this factor are highlighted); 2) focus on working with educational material at the level of typical strategies and methodology, not limited to typical algorithms; 3) presentation of mathematics as a multidimensional cultural phenomenon, in which scientific, technical, aesthetic, historical and economic as well as historical and social aspects are distinguished (this in many cases requires the processing of the teaching methods constituents, in particular, curricula alongside with the educational and methodological support).

It has become widely recognized that religiousness has a predictable pattern of small associations with Big Five personality dimensions, and has some intersections with cultural psychology. But just how large are those culture-religiosity intersections, and are there additional associations with personality when one extends beyond the restricted spectrum represented by Big Five traits? Moreover, do the answers to these questions depend on how religiousness is defined and measured? I argue that, both conceptually and empirically, religiousness itself meets the criteria for a personality dimension (including stability, heritability, and other grounds), and is simultaneously for the most part a cultural phenomenon reflecting often widely shared sets of beliefs, values, worldviews, and norms. The patterns of modest associations with other personality dimensions, from the Big Five and beyond, are consistent with both arguments. A distributive model of culture, under which culture is aggregated personalities (and especially mindsets) helps make sense of these relations. Tradition-oriented religiousness tends to have a prominent position in enduring-order (as contrasted with evolving-order) cultures, which helps account for its occasional expressions in political religion. In contrast, mystical spirituality is more prone to manifest as a sub-cultural phenomenon peripheral to mainstream culture. But for either conception—religiousness or spirituality—the same personality-and-culture propositions appear to hold. Nonetheless, religiousness seems not totally reducible to a variable for personality or cultural psychology, and considerations are introduced regarding what that irreducible element is most likely to be.

United Nations adopted in 2015 seventeen Sustainable Development Goals to be achieved in 2030.The main goals are: ending poverty, ending hunger, achieving equity in heath, education, water treatment and sanitation, full and productive employment for all, sustainable economic growth, sustainable consumption and production pattern, combat climate change and other environmental goals. There are many constraints encountering the achievements of these goal.These constraints are basically financial and political. This paper emphasizes that these goals cannot be achieved without large scale of international financial support in term of grants and easy term loans. In addition, UN has to play its role in preserving international peace and security which are the basic elements in sustainable development. Time frame for achieving sustainable development goals should be extended ,probably, to the mid of this century.

The article considers cross-functional teams of employees as a highly productive work practice to ensure the sustainable development of companies. Dissemination of the best high-performance work practices and social work with personnel, including designing cross - functional teams, is one of the areas that ensure the sustainable development of companies. However, the design of cross-functional teams within organizations faces various difficulties and, mainly, with fragmentation and mismatch of ideas about this type of group work and methods of managing it. Rationale of expediency of applying the practice of forming cross-functional teams of employees is given. A contextual analysis of the reasons for creating cross-functional teams of employees is carried out, their polyphonic nature is revealed. The study examines the signs of the exclusivity of cross-functional teams of employees as an organizational unit, project team, organizational knowledge generator, cross-cultural phenomenon and presents the results of a pilot study of organizational and managerial factors of the impact of knowledge exchange between participants of cross-functional teams to ensure the sustainable development of companies.
