Purpose of Study: The present study was designed to study possibilities, conditions, grounds and limitations regarding the use of technologies and units of artificial intelligence in public administration. Determinants of the need to use such technologies in public administration were also considered. In this study, directions of realizable engagement which is already implemented, as well as directions of the possible use of artificial intelligence units in the future for public administration were investigated to ensure the functioning of system of state executive bodies. Methodology: The present research carried out based on the application of research methods such as system analysis, synthesis, and classification. Using these research methods, the concepts of describing conditions, possibilities, modes and functional-target load of using technologies and units of artificial intelligence in public administration, as well as limitations of its application in public administration were developed. Results: It was found that the use of artificial intelligence by the state for performing its various own tasks is highly relevant as it might lead to finding many positive approbations. However, despite the fact that technologies and artificial intelligence units have been developed for a relatively long time, and some of them are already widely used, it is still impossible to talk about the integrated, fully tested and properly regulated implementation of this kind of technology and units for management, therefore, it is suggested to further investigate on this issue from a theoretical (prognostic) point of view, taking into account potential directions and possibilities regarding    the use of such technology and units. Implications/Applications: The use of technologies and units of artificial intelligence does not necessarily take into account as a panacea for solving the problems and may not lead to solving some systemic problems in public administration, but, on the contrary, may even aggravate some existing problems in public administration and contribute to the emergence of new problems and risks.

The Impact

In preparing this article the author has set out to substantiate the thesis about the multifaceted phenomenon of the President of Ukraine as a phenomenon of state and legal reality, which necessarily requires enrichment of the content of the same concept. The analysis of scientists’ judgments revealing the content of the concept under study, gives grounds to conclude that the President of Ukraine is a complex socio-legal phenomenon, and therefore a comprehensive picture of this phenomenon can be obtained only as a result of its multifaceted consideration: - from the point of view of the theory of the mechanism of the state, the President of Ukraine is an important element of the state apparatus - a single, elected, supreme body of the state, which has general competence. This aspect is somewhat contradictory regarding that state bodies are usually established as legal entities that cannot be said about the head of the Ukrainian state; - in terms of a certain constitutional and legal status he/she is the head of the state and acts on its behalf. A significant clarification of this judgment is the thesis about the President of Ukraine as a legal form of the head of state, who is elected by the people and receives power for a fixed term by delegation. As for the recognition of his/her highest official, we consider the relevant judgment to some extent conditional and evaluative, because in the national legal doctrine and current legislation the issue of the hierarchical system of officials in Ukraine is not yet developed; - from the point of view of ontology (of his/her being, existence) the President of Ukraine is an individual who has reached at least 35 years of age. A significant shortcoming of the current legislation is a rather limited, in our opinion, set of requirements for a candidate for this elected position, and in the future, in case of winning the election, describe the current head of state. The legislator did not envisage as a condition for the emergence of constitutional and legal relations, within which a citizen of Ukraine can be elected President of Ukraine, or the fact of higher education (in epistemological terms, the President of Ukraine must be an active subject of knowledge, because it is cognitive capabilities provide him/her to gain higher education; it should be noted that the President is both an object of knowledge of the social sciences, most of which study the impact of this institution on various social processes and are designed to increase its effectiveness in a constantly changing environment. At the same time some them (history, history of the state and law) explore his/her personality, achievements, personal role in society, neither he/she has significant experience of professional activity, nor the recognition of a high level of his/her competence as a professional in general, nor he/she has high moral qualities; - in terms of the system of constitutional law the President of Ukraine is a constitutional and legal institution, the rules of which determine: 1) the place and role of the head of state in the state mechanism and its relationship with other state bodies; 2) the procedure for substituting this position; 3) functions and powers of the head of state; 4) his/her responsibility for treason or other crime; - in terms of doctrine and practice of public administration, the head of state is one of the most im-portant elements of the modern system of public administration. He/she converges large volumes of infor-mation flows from other elements of this system. Analysis of information, development of management decisions and control over their implementation - these are the main President’s functions in this system; - in terms of the attitude to this constitutional and legal institution and the personality of the head of state by society and government institutions, the President of Ukraine is an honorary title protected by law and retained for his/her life, unless the President of Ukraine was removed from office by impeachment.

AbstractThe International Planning Competition (IPC) is a prominent event of the artificial intelligence planning community that has been organized since 1998; it aims at fostering the development and comparison of planning approaches, assessing the state-of-the-art in planning and identifying new challenging benchmarks. IPC has a strong impact also outside the planning community, by providing a large number of ready-to-use planning engines and testing pioneering applications of planning techniques.This paper focusses on the deterministic part of IPC 2014, and describes format, participants, benchmarks as well as a thorough analysis of the results. Generally, results of the competition indicates some significant progress, but they also highlight issues and challenges that the planning community will have to face in the future.

Insight Into

In my study, I list the directions of migration research, all from the point of view of public administration science. The emergence of migration research as an independent field is necessitated by the growth of migration. Researchers are researching the phenomenon of migration from their own field. Public administration uses a multidisciplinary, i.e. methodological approach of several disciplines, all of which is determined by the knowledge and nature of the subject of the given research. In the following, I review and evaluate the methodological directions of the research, which can provide an answer to a segment of the phenomenon of migration. The study gives an insight into research methods for migration research. It is not intended to present specific examples and procedures. At the end of the study, in possible directions, beyond the science of public administration, I list the organizations and faculties that are able to use the methodology of migration research.

Governments are showing an interest in, or incorporating, gamification into their governance processes and/or services to citizens. The article describes the concept of gamification, examines its potential from the point of view of using elements of the game in public administration, for example, on the websites of authorities and special platforms, as well as in offline mode. The conclusion is made about the goals of introducing gamification into the practice of public authorities. The state administration can not only be the author of these projects, but also assist civil society institutions (public associations, citizens) in their development.

State Administration

The article describes some peculiarities of using the basic approa- ches of state administration for professional and amateur arts. It is established that for the State it is necessary to provide an assistance to artistic development in all spheres of its appearance. The use of an indicative approach to profession- al and amateur art management is recommended. It is revealed that indicative state management of art will be able to transform the subjects of management into the subjects of responsibility, who will achieve clearly defined spiritual and educational tasks and become accountable. This will contribute to systematic assessment of the practice of state and municipal management of professional and amateur art and will allow to adjust educational policy at all levels of govern- ment — the state, the region, the settlement, a separate union of artists.It is proved that the formation of professional and amateur arts in the system of public administration should take place through the process of understanding the aspects of individual and group behavior, the system analysis, planning methods, motivation and control, quantitative methods and decision making. Applying the philosophical approach to the problem under study, I believe that a healthy soci- ety can not be imagined without art. Man in its essence tends to be beautiful, to recreate the surrounding world through the prism of their own feelings of objec- tive reality in works of art. That is why, for the state, it is extremely necessary to ensure the promotion of artistic development in all areas of its manifestation.It is noted that one of the main approaches of the state administration to the formation of professional and amateur art is the author of this article considers the philosophical approach. There are also special connections of personality and social factors that determine the spiritual crisis of man.

Classical Image

For a long time, leading European thinkers have denied systematic, theoretical and rational nature of Chinese traditional thinking, unpretentiously reading it as banal moralizing (“moral philosophy,” at best – “moral metaphysics,” etc.), not supported by any proper philosophical discourse. However, the habitual socioethical label conceals a much deeper problematic of strategic thinking. At its center, there is the question of choosing all sorts of strategies: from everyday life to special technical ones, from personal existential choice to fateful state decisions. The concept of a winning strategy is emblematized by the dramatic plot of a deadly risk (“stepping on a tiger’s tail”) but under certain conditions with guaranteed happy end. The strategy of harmony (he 和), which is miraculous in its effectiveness, is proposed as a exemplary strategy. It allows you to “step on the tiger’s tail” with impunity (lü hu wei履 虎尾). From the point of view of strategic thinking, the criterion of cognitive value of reasoning is its effectiveness (in the context of a particular game), and the most effective is unmistakable prediction, i.e. the ability to predict the outcome of future developments with the help of reasoning. In the ideal case (under certain conditions), prognostic reasoning becomes not just plausible but 100% reliable that is an apodictic true inference. Therefore, the highest cognitive status in the Chinese intellectual tradition is endowed with guaranteed error-free prognostic reasoning. This type of reasoning, where the reliability of foresight is guaranteed by the implementation of a certain winning strategy, can be called the prognostic form of deduction. As a result, the dynamism of Chinese logic, which relies on a deliberate staging of the future (sometimes with the help of stratagems of varying degrees of cunning), is strikingly different from the static nature of the classical image of logic (both traditional and modern), where logic is no more than a static guardian of correctness of reasoning. On the contrary, the Chinese concept of logic focuses on deriving consequences from strategic considerations regarding the future, actively and purposefully shaped by the subject who at the same time constructing both himself and the world around him.

An increasing demand for space travel, the creation of commercial enterprises and travel agencies in the field of space industry, the development of vehicles intended solely for the transportation of tourists to space – all this suggests that space can soon turn from a matter of scientific research into a tourist destination. Therefore, today the study of the state and prospects of space tourism development is a hot topic. The subject of research in the article is the development of space tourism in the world. The goal is to identify the main factors constraining the development of space tourism in the world. The objectives are to explore the economic benefits of space tourism development and the possibility of increasing commercial enterprises in the field of space industry; to evaluate key concepts involved in developing ways to reduce or eliminate social, economic problems arising in the field of space tourism. General scientific methods used: system analysis and factor analysis. The results of this study: the main economic advantages, disadvantages and problems of space tourism have been revealed; the state have been analyzed, and prospects for the development of space tourism have been identified; the need to study the fundamentals of space tourism development in the future have been determined, its impact on society and those who participate in it, the importance of upcoming efforts and possible policy recommendations have been evaluated. Special attention is paid to the review of space law treaties, agreements and conventions on space tourism. The authors conclude that space tourism is showing rapid development, and the space industry remains one of the promising investment sectors which may become the main direction of development of space activities in the future. Because space tourism is a certain market niche that can contribute to the use of infrastructure in space, especially due to the upcoming discoveries.
