Introduction. In the conditions of dependence on the imported energy resources there is a problem of ensuring stability of the energy industry with counteraction to changes of the ambient and a possibility of reacting to actions for providing competitive positions and advantages of the state. A number of problems in energy industry need a support of necessary level of the energy security on the basis of providing own extraction with volume reduction of imported energy resources, increasing of the national products’ competitiveness in the world markets, development of innovations and investments into energy efficient technologies. In such conditions, it’s important to apply actions for ensuring economic security of the energy sector through the creating of an efficient program for the protection of the national interests in the energy sector, which will contribute to the national economy development. Aim and tasks. The purpose of article is a researching of energy security and developing actions for state regulation of energy security. Research results. The article outlines the priority directions of the state policy on ensuring the energy sector development which are identified as a main risks and adverse factors of influence on functioning of energy industry of Ukraine. And the necessity of energy security systems formation at the state level is grounded. The perspective increasing directions of energy security are the establishment of more adapted to transformations system of state regulation with market self-regulation elements. The state regulation of energy security in conditions of high level internationalization of national economy should be aimed at the harmonization of its technological and institutional aspects which influence the development and implementation of energy technologies and projects related to renewable energy sources. The state regulation requires further active development of institutional conditions for use of alternative energy resources and energy saving based on renewable energy. Conclusion. To provide energy security it is necessary to improve the complex program of its development which will involve wide use of state regulation methods as well as public-private partnership development so the support of the implementation of investment projects will be provided. The important aspect in development of energy engineering is ensuring its economic security which will allow to level possible threats of the industry and to provide requirements of fuel and energy complex and industry for a long term. Energy security should be directed towards increasing energy efficiency which will promote reducing imports and depending on the supply of energy resources by other countries. State regulation of energy security should ensure the rational use of the energy sector potential and stable functioning of the energetic supply system which includes: implementation of energy efficiency and energy saving policies; increase of investment in energy engineering; reduction of environmental impact and emissions.

The country's energy security is an important component of the national security of any state. In countries where the oil sector is the development determinant of the national economy, the functioning of all other sectors and the satisfaction of the population needs in energy resources depends on the efficiency of the industry operation. Therefore, it is relevant to study the prerequisites for the development of the oil-producing industry of Ukraine in the context of the formation of perspective ways of its development and modernization. The article analyzes the Ukraine’s' oil-producing potential, its current state and directions of development. At the same time, the author emphasizes that the availability of sufficient oil reserves in Ukraine creates preconditions for ensuring energy independence in the near future. In the paper, the author emphasizes that the current challenges in the oil sector for Ukraine are: the balance of exports and imports, increasing of own oil production, reduction of monopolization and creation of competitive, transparent energy markets. An analysis of the oil and gas industry functioning and the domestic market of oil and petroleum products made it possible to distinguish the relevant trends of its development. At the same time, it was concluded that the oil refining sector of the oil complex is one of the low efficient branches in the industry. The paper identifies the main negative trends in the development of the oil industry in Ukraine: the lack of a comprehensive state program for the industry development, a lack of investment in exploration, unsystematic and slow reform of the oil sector, unsustainable rental and tax rules, and the unresolved issues connected with environment protection, which lead to regression of the domestic oil-producing complex. In order to develop the oil industry in Ukraine and increase the efficiency of its functioning, the author has formed the directions of state regulation that will stimulate the development of the oil-extracting industry in Ukraine. Key words: oil-extracting complex, oil production, energy security, efficiency, state regulation.

Social and labour relations on today’s home labour market are accompanied by adverse social and economic phenomena, such as poverty of working population, inequality in profit distribution, discrimination in remuneration, shadow forms of employment and pay, illegal and interregional migration, labour exploitation, staff deficit and excess, which results in imperfect nature of competition on home labour market. These adverse phenomena are caused, on the one hand, by imperfect indications of competitive behavior of labour market entities, which shows the imperfect type of social and labour relations where parties’ interests are deprived of mutually beneficial basis of their satisfaction and, on the other hand, by imperfect competitive conditions of labour market entities’ functioning, which is manifested in requirements to labour quality. The article studies the key aspects of imperfect competition on home labour market and shows dynamics of its principles statistics. By analyzing and summarizing the dynamics of competitive situations investigated in the regional aspect the authors gained a conceptual model of imperfect competition taking into account its behavioral and institutional aspects. The key social and economic aspects of imperfect competition impact on labour reproduction were researched. On the basis of the provided conclusions the authors put forward certain measures of state regulation of imperfect competition, which could increase workers’ competitiveness and therefore improve the quality of labour reproduction.

The authors make a point that the legal regulation of the rational use of natural resources is one of the most important directions of the state’s activities to ensure energy security, the role of the energy sector in shaping the economic, political and social course of the country is noted. On the basis of a comparative legal analysis, the authors undertake a search for the most optimal methods, methods and means of state regulation of rational environmental management. It is obvious that without proper theoretical understanding, comparative legal analysis, it is impossible to predict ways to optimize state regulation of the commodity market, ensuring its sustainable development.

The article analyzes the influence of privatization, which is the main tool for the formation of market relations in the energy sector. The authors found that as a result of the privatization of energy assets in Ukraine, it was not possible to maintain a balance of interests of the state, business and society. The state monopoly was replaced by oligopoly, consumer sovereignty was not secured, and responsibility for energy security is distributed unevenly between business and government. Because of the lack of coordination of policy objectives, privatization did not use the investment resource for energy development, mechanisms for the return of invested funds, which were tested by world experience, were not involved. Completion of privatization should take place after the adoption of a number of decisions related to the institutional framework for the development of electricity market, the development of privatization conditions and contracts with potential investors, measures to ensure the energy security of the state. Reliability of energy supply in the context of further development of private property in the energy sector will be determined by the effectiveness of state regulation in this area, the ability to prevent uncompetitive behavior of market participants. The delay in moving to the European energy model encourages business entities (including sectored monopolists) to lobby their own projects in the government bodies that contradict the established principles of market functioning. The risk of transforming the transitional measures into permanent ones is no less a threat. At the same time, the incompleteness of the transition from the administrative to the market model of regulation not only hampers the development of the world's best business practices by business entities, but also undermines the credibility of government actions. To remedy the situation, it is necessary to accelerate the formation of the institutional and institutional base that ensures the functioning of the energy market in accordance with its new model; to stop administrative interference of the state in the activity of subjects of energy markets, regardless of forms of ownership; to complete privatization of energy assets; to refuse cross- subsidization; to complete the process of monetization of subsidies. Civil society institutions should become a lever to control management decisions and not to distort the norms of the Law of Ukraine "On the Electricity Market" at the stage of its implementation.

The original version of "the theory of economy management", developed in the 1920s by Russian economists-emigrants who called themselves "Eurasians" (N. Trubetskoy, P. Savitskiy, etc.) is analyzed in the article. They considered this theory to be the basis of the original Russia's way of economic development. The Eurasian theory of economy management focuses on two sides of enterprise activity: managerial as well as social and moral. The Eurasians accepted the Soviet economy with the large share of state regulation as the initial step of development. On the other hand they paid much attention to the private sector activity. Eurasians developed a theoretical model of the mixed economy which can be attributed as the Russian economic school.

Implications of the modern Marxist theory create the opportunity to show the inevitability, the reasons and the main features of the first world crisis of the XXI century. It has been generated by deregulation of economy, which caused the ‘classical’ crisis of overproduction, and by the new contradictions of late capitalism, in particular, by persistent over-accumulation of capital and by the excessive development of the transactional sector, of the fictitious financial capital and its isolation from the real sector. Marxist analysis of social interests and contradictions shows that anti-crisis measures require not only increasing of state regulation, but also determining on behalf of whom and in the interests of what social groups this regulation will be realized. The authors propose to do this on behalf of the financial capital and in the interests of citizens, but also formulate the neoconservative scenario of post-crisis development.
