The economic constraints of Latvia have been connected with the unstable development of regions and city nets. The state territory characterizes the peculiarity of monocentric territory. In territories, which are located outside the monocentric place of action, the problems of economic development are main reasons for social and physical problems. The complex nature of these problems demands integrated, locally based approach for the development of cities and regions, as well as for the solution of problems mentioned above. Latvia has started the process directed towards the polycentric development of its territory. For a successful development of cities and attraction of European Union funds Latvia has worked out the city policy with the help of which the government seeks a solution for the development of cities and the means for solution of problems. During the research the author clarifies the interconnection between the defined economic variables; they are consolidated and therefore it can help to gain opinion on current synthesis of regional division in Latvia.

The global economic development is, to a great extent, dependent on access to large amounts of cheap energy sources. The growing social awareness of ecology and the enormous damage to the Earth’s ecosystem due to the production of energy from conventional sources have forced fundamental changes in the energy sector. Renewable energy is considered to be an opportunity for such changes. The current state of the art allows such changes to be made without restricting economic development. Therefore, activities related to the energy transition are being taken all over the world. The European Union has definitely managed to achieve the most tangible effects in this regard. This article presents the findings of the research aimed at presenting the current state of renewable energy in the European Union and analyzing the changes reported in this sector in the last decade. The research was carried out using a selected set of 11 indicators characterizing renewable energy in individual countries. These indicators were selected on the basis of literature review and own studies of the state of renewable energy and its development prospects. Based on these indicators, changes in the energy structure of individual European Union countries between 2008–2018 were determined. The study is divided into two main stages. The principal components analysis (PCA) was used for the first analysis. In turn, the Technique for Order Preference by Similarity to Ideal Solution (TOPSIS) was adopted to assess the level of renewable energy development in the European Union countries. Both these methods and the extended statistical analysis were applied to determine the state of renewable energy development in the European Union countries in the studied period and to divide the Member States into classes with different levels of development. The results of the study showed that the EU countries are characterized by significant differences in the development of RES during the period in question. The unquestionable leaders in this respect are Sweden, Austria, Finland, and Latvia. Based on the findings, it is possible to evaluate the effects of activities related to renewable energy development and to prepare assumptions for future activities. Additionally, both the research and its findings broaden the knowledge of the directions of renewable energy development in individual European Union countries. This is particularly important in the context of changes related to the need to reduce harmful substance emissions and the implementation of the European Green Deal idea.

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 author analyzes the economic documentation sent by the Nizhyn governors to the Malorossiyskyi Prykaz in the 1650s and 1670s. The excerpts published in the Acts relating to the History of Southern and Western Russia. This source the author used to show the nature of the interaction between the Nizhyn Voivodship and the government, to identify the main issues voivode had to report on and the tasks he had to solve, as well as to consider the situation of the Russian military contingent in Nizhyn.The author notes that the royal pledges led by the voivods appeared in Chernihiv, Nizhyn, Pereyaslav and other Ukrainian cities in the late 1650s. The names of the Nizhyn voivods, who served in the 1650-1670s, were identified, and the author described their activities. She found out that the voivode had to build a fortress in the city to defend against enemies, manage the affairs of their garrisons, send to Moscow financial statements of expenditures, to issue a sovereign's pay to the archers, to fight against their escape, which was very common, and in addition to monitor on the activities of the local Cossack administration and internal policy in the territories subordinate to them, submit to the king petitioners and petitions, provide information on events in the Ukrainian lands and in the neighboring territories, involve the local population in the work . Under the rule of Ivan Bryukhovetsky, voivode had to collect taxes from inhabitants of the Hetmanate (except for Cossacks and clergy). The author concludes that it was through regular reports that the voivode in Moscow knew about the state of affairs in the Hetmanate region and, following the information received, adjusted their policy towards the Ukrainian lands. Therefore, the voivodship runoff can be considered a valuable source from the history of the hetman's Ukraine itself.

<p><strong>Abstract</strong></p><p>In the post-republic period in Turkey, due to the increase in the rate of industrialization and urbanization, the need for housing in the cities has come to the agenda. In this period, the incentives and investments provided by the state played an important role in eliminating this need by providing the production of housing cooperatives. Between the years of 1950-1980 in Kayseri; the period of industrialization in the city has accelerated and the population of the city has increased. Therefore, the housing need that emerged in Kayseri in this process has been tried to be solved through the state cooperatives produced by the state. In this context, this study aimed to document the housing cooperatives produced by the Social Insurance Institution between 1950-1980 in Kayseri and to examine the quantitative development of the cooperatives. Kayseri Kocasinan Municipality and Kayseri Melikgazi Municipality archives were scanned to make this examination. As a result of the findings, it has been determined that the government has long been involved in the production of housing cooperatives within the economic plans and that the housing cooperatives have increased in quantity and Kayseri has contributed to the spatial development of the city by adding to the housing stock. In addition, in this study, researching housing cooperatives in Kayseri's architectural environment; it is thought that it will help to introduce the politics of generating housing in Turkey.</p><p><strong>Öz</strong></p><p>Türkiye’de Cumhuriyet sonrası dönemde, sanayileşme ve kentleşme hızının artmasına bağlı olarak kentlerde konut ihtiyacı gündeme gelmiştir. Bu dönemde devlet tarafından sağlanan teşvik ve yatırımlar, konut kooperatiflerinin üretilmesini sağlayarak bu ihtiyacın giderilmesinde önemli rol oynamıştır. Çalışmanın kapsamı olan Kayseri’de 1950-1980 yılları arası; kentte sanayileşme sürecinin hızlandığı ve kentli nüfusun arttığı dönem olmuştur. Bu nedenle bu süreçte Kayseri’de ortaya çıkan konut ihtiyacı, devlet eli ile üretilen konut kooperatifleri üzerinden giderilmeye çalışılmıştır. Bu bağlamda bu çalışma, Kayseri’de 1950-1980 yılları arasında Sosyal Sigortalar Kurumu (SSK) tarafından üretilen konut kooperatiflerini belgelemeyi ve kooperatiflerin nicel gelişimini incelemeyi amaçlamıştır. Bu incelemeyi yapabilmek için Kayseri Kocasinan Belediyesi ve Kayseri Melikgazi Belediyesi arşivleri taranmıştır. Elde edilen bulgular sonucunda, devletin ekonomik planları dâhilinde konut kooperatifi üretimine uzun süre yer verildiği ve bu sayede konut kooperatiflerinin nicel olarak arttığı ve Kayseri’nin konut stokuna önemli oranda eklenerek kentin mekânsal gelişimine katkıda bulunduğu saptanmıştır. Ayrıca bu çalışmada Kayseri’nin mimarlık ortamındaki konut kooperatiflerini araştırmanın; Türkiye’de bir döneme ait konut üretme politikasının tanıtılmasına yardımcı olacağı düşünülmektedir.</p>

Introduction. The review of individual results of economic management of the state with a special status evidenced by the Donetsk People’s Republic is provided in this article. The newly formed state has to create its own economic management system as a result of the military-political conflict.The conditions of limited opportunities require, on the one hand, taking an account of available opportunities and external constraints for the purpose of providing for current societal needs, and on the other hand – a strategy for a long term economic development, which should contain the development of its own economic model, identification and prediction by the government of future threats and risks, which will provide a correction impact on the socialeconomic system. The more the republic’s economic management system borrows old tools and mechanisms, restores technological chains that have proved their economic futility in the pre-conflict period, the more urgent the solution of this dual problem is. The article provides a brief analysis of the prerequisites for the formation of a management system for the republic’s economy and the consequences of the implementation of its principles.Materials and methods. The methodological basis of this research includes the following general scientific and special methods of cognition of organizational and economic phenomena and processes in the field of public economic administration: comparative method; formal-logical method; statistical method, grouping method, method of analysis and synthesis, substitution method. Results of the research. As a result of the analysis, it was revealed that the economic management system of a state with a special status requires increased attention, resources and time. Currently, it has passed only the first stages of its formation, has not completed its first stage of organization - the stage of formation. The system of managing the state’s economy with a special status is still in the process of searching for effective mechanisms and instruments of government and determining priority areas for economic development. This explains both attempts to restore outdated technological chains, despite the fact that they demonstrated a devaluation of their economic potential under more favorable conditions, and continuing uncertainty with the choice of an economic development model, when the old mechanisms no longer work and the new ones have not yet been developed.Discussion and conclusions. The drawbacks of the formed system of managing the state economy with a special status, caused by the use of outdated organizational and economic-production principles and tools are shown. The urgency of the development of its own model of economic development in conditions of limited opportunities is grounded.
