The features of decommunization on the example of the toponymic policy of Ukraine and Poland are explored in the article. The “last” wave of decommunization of the city toponymics, which began in 2014 and peaked in 2015–2017, was the object of interest. 14 Ukrainian and Polish cities were selected for comparative research. The study covered all decommunization legal acts in selected cities. 451 urbanonims were analyzed, the vast majority of which were decommunizated in Ukraine (89%). Polish cities accounted for 11% of the total renamed amount, respectively.The content-statistical analysis made it possible to determine the scale of urbanonymy changes, the recurrence of old and new urbanonymy in the sample under study. The classification of old and new names has been carried out in terms of persons, events, or other objects and phenomena. As a result, objective information was obtained to assess the scale, intensity, and territorial characteristics of urban changes in both states. It has been established that, although in general toponymic decommunization was supported and understood in both states by a significant part of society, it caused certain ideological, political, organizational, and competence contradictions. Decommunization toponymic policy in Ukraine and Poland has not only common but also distinctive features. In particular, the renaming in Ukraine turned out to be several times larger than the Polish one. Along with the signs of decommunization, it also bore signs of de-Russification of symbolic space. Decommunized names in Ukraine turned out to be, on the whole, more neutral, compromise and de-ideologized. It was revealed that, unlike the Ukrainian one, the Polish judicial system often defended local self-government bodies from attempts by the central government under the guise of decommunization to interfere in local urbanonymy politics.

Introduction. Biometeorological circumstances have a big influence on all traffic participants, especially reflexes, moving coordination and perception ability. With a lower attention and drivers? and pedestrians? concentration, there was a larger amount of pedestrian trauma in certain biometeorological phases. Objective. The aim of this study was to establish the correlation between pedestrian trauma and biometeorological phases. Methods. The comparative analysis of everyday biometeorological phases for the city of Kragujevac determined by RHMI and the evidence of knocked-down pedestrians from the Kragujevac traffic police for the period 2003-2008. Results. There were 6,127 accidents, with 696 knocked pedestrians in 666 (10.87%) accidents. Most of them happened in 2003 (135), and the fewest in 2005 (90). Most accidents were during December (74), the fewest were in June (46). The fewest accidents were during 04-05-06 hour interval (by 2), most during 13-14 hours (61). There were 374 males and 349 females. Most of the males (by 60) were 0-10 and 11-20 years old, most of the females (74) were 11-20 years old. There were 443 pedestrians who suffered slight body injuries (112 were 11-20), 225 suffered heavy and 28 had lethal injuries (most over 70). As provokers, the pedestrians suffered because of improper crossing roads (185), while as a casualties, they suffered due to speeding of vechicles (285). Most accidents happened in biometeorological phases 4 (168) and 9 (151), the fewest in phase 10 (4). Conclussion. Statistical analysis shows a significant correlation between pedestrians? accidents and biometeorological phases, when the most accidents occurred during penetrations of cold fronts, while there was a sudden switch of weather conditions from warm-dry to cold-wet weather.

Resumo: Atendendo à inexistência de legislação comunitária europeia, relativa à proteção das árvores monumentais, procurou-se conhecer a realidade legislativa, em vinte e três países do continente europeu. Assim, procedeu-se à análise comparativa da legislação sobre as árvores monumentais e dos critérios de classificação deste arvoredo, com base nas figuras de proteção legal existentes. Os países foram selecionados com base nos contactos internacionais estabelecidos e na pesquisa desenvolvida, considerando a sua distribuição geográfica. Atendendo à heterogeneidade da legislação existente, a mesma foi agrupada consoante o tipo de proteção jurídica em vigor. Procedeu-se, ainda, à identificação dos critérios mais representativos de classificação do arvoredo alvo de proteção por legislação, anotando-se oito classes, onde se destacam os critérios de longevidade associados a valores histórico e culturais. Foram, igualmente, analisados os inventários online existentes, em cada um dos países da amostra, tendo-se verificado a importância que estes catálogos assumem no reconhecimento público destas árvores, por vezes, monitorizadas durante décadas. O estudo contribuiu para alargar a reflexão sobre a importância que as árvores monumentais assumem a nível natural, como também para as comunidades, enquanto memória individual e coletiva do legado histórico, cultural ou paisagístico que representam. Permitiu, ainda, refletir sobre a importância que a legislação assume na preservação e salvaguarda atual e futura deste património. Palavras-chave: árvores antigas, árvores de interesse público, legislação, critérios de monumentalidade, pesquisa comparada.   Abstract: Monumental Trees: comparative analysis of national and European legislation regarding the protection and enhancement of this natural heritageGiven the lack of European Community legislation on the protection of monumental trees, sought to know the legislative reality in twenty-three countries of the European continent. Thus, we proceeded to the comparative analysis of the legislation on monumental trees and the classification criteria of this grove, based on the existing legal protection figures. Countries were selected based on established international contacts and research developed considering their geographical distribution. Given the heterogeneity of existing legislation, it was grouped according to the type of legal protection in force. We also proceeded to identify the most representative criteria for the classification of trees under protection by legislation, noting eight classes, highlighting the longevity criteria associated with historical and cultural values. Existing online inventories were also analyzed in each of the sample countries, and the importance of these catalogs in the public recognition of these trees, sometimes monitored for decades, was verified. This study has contributed to a broader reflection on the importance that monumental trees assume on a natural level, as well as for communities, as an individual and collective memory of the historical, cultural or landscape legacy they represent. It also allowed to reflect on the importance that the legislation assumes in the preservation and current and future safeguard of this heritage.   Keywords: trees of public interest, legislation, criteria of monumentality, comparative research

The reform of the judicial system in Ukraine is accompanied by the criminalization of society and the rapid growth of offenses in the economic sphere. At the same time, the implementation of the principle of inevitability of punishment involves the maximum use in court proceedings of the results of forensic economists and necessitates the appointment and conduct of forensic economic examination during the pre-trial investigation or trial of economic crimes. Based on the generalization of the interpretation of the category "forensic economic expertise» by various authors, forensic economic expertise is proposed to understand procedural research, which is carried out through the application of special scientific and practical knowledge of forensic economist and allows to solve economic issues. investigation or court in order to resolve criminal, civil-administrative, arbitration or economic disputes. The concepts of classification systems of forensic economic examination considered by scientists, forensic experts, practitioners and legislators do not take into account all the specifics of the examination, and therefore, presuppose the existence of certain problems that need to be solved. Therefore, the authors propose the division of the class of forensic economic examinations by genera and species, which will specify the tasks and limits of competence of each genus and type of such examinations, objects of forensic research and criteria for developing appropriate methods. Comparative analysis of scholars' views on the list and classification of methods of forensic economic examination that can be used in the work of forensic economist, allowed to present the most appropriate and effective, namely: philosophical, general, partial and specific methods that are closely related communication.

The purpose of this work is to identify the unique features inherent in the City of Orenburg, which is the main outpost of the Novozakamsk great abatis border formed in the 18th century. The planning system inside defensive fortresses refers to the regular type, its scale exceeds other fortresses of Russia, built earlier than in the 18th century. This makes it unique and this research is relevant. The research methodology is based on a comparative analysis of the fortresses in the Russian Empire. Using the historical data, the main outpost cities on the great abatis border of the 15–18th centuries are studied and their comparative analysis is carried out. This approach allows to show the planning features of the city which appeared 300 years ago. Much attention is paid to the construction of the outpost towns and fortresses. Empirically examining already built fortifications for two centuries, in the 18th century engineers changed their approach to the defensive structures. The city significantly grows inside the fortress. The planning structure of settlements becomes regular, the orientation inside becomes simpler. Also, the role of the fortress defense system remains one of the important components when choosing its location. River banks and steep cliffs retain an advantage both over the city defense and the formation of its skyline. The integration of entry gates decreases, which is compensated by the streets intersection with a slight shift of the relative straight axis. All these distinctive features are manifested in the structure of the fortress of Orenburg and make it a unique planning unit.

Abstract On 13 may 2000 an explosion occurred in a fireworks storage and trading facility in Enschede, the Netherlands. Twenty-two people were killed and some 900 injured. The material damage was approximately 400 MEuro. Immediately after the accident an investigation was started into the causes of the accident. Special attention was given to the unexpected violence of the explosion. The investigative committee installed by the Government used results and advice of domestic and international institutes to obtain results. It appeared that the firm had a long history of violating permits, that the city had legalised these violations and that inspectorates and state institutions were not aware of the hazards thus created. Especially the importance of the correct classification of the fireworks and of the storage of the correct types and quantities went unnoticed. As a result prior to May 13 2000 most of the fireworks stored at the premises were more powerful than the labels indicated and in fact a significant part of the storage was mass-explosive contrary to the current permit.
