The Object of the Study. Justice as a social phenomenon, a property, and the system-forming side of social relations.The Subject of the Study. Systems aralysing the phenomenon of justice as an objective characteristic of social relations at the theoretic and conceptual levels in the socioeconomic sphere. The Purpose of the Study. The category of justice, its essential, meaningful characteristics in the context of socioeconomic relations.The Main Provisions of the ArticleIn the context of globalization of social processes, the problem of justice has acquired special importance both in theoretical, ideological and practical terms. In the system of socio-economic relations, justice as an objective property of these relations is determined through the socio-philosophical category, which indicates the correspondence of appropriation as a process of securing resources, property, means of production, material goods, services and various types of income for an economic entity or an individual to the results of their activities.At each stage of social development, economic justice has its limits , which are the interests of the state and social groups. The latter dictate their demands for the application of the principles of justice, primarily through decent remuneration for work. As an economic problem, justice is manifested in the form of claims, conditions imposed on the political power about effective taxation and adequate tax burden on the population.But in general, the study of the problems of justice in economic relations is closely related to the need to find more effective options for the development of production and society. On a socially significant scale, socio-economic justice acts as the expediency of the emerging property relations, and their transformation at a certain historical stage. The dynamics of changes in economic relations, the basis of which are property relations, causes changes in the specific meaning of justice in this process

Subject. Scientific and technological progress, mining disregarding environmental standards, throw-away economy, and other similar human activities have led to a new economic objective of environmental protection, waste disposal, and recycling. Any qualitative solution to an economic problem requires a quantitative measurement to calculate its scale and create political and organisational measures to eliminate it. State regulation and the support of a green economy means providing for and controlling the processes of enterprise cooperation aimed at waste optimisation and disposal as well as controlling waste recycling. Organisational measures include procedures aimed at the formation of cooperative ties. They also require procedures that form an accounting and analytic section, i.e. procedures for the acknowledgement, assessment, and disclosure of information about waste in financial statements. A realistic estimate and the control of waste as well as liquidation obligations related to its disposal will provide reliable information about the scale of environmental behaviour of each economic entity. Objectives. The study includes identifying tools for the development of a green economy. It proposes methods for environmental cooperation within the framework of waste-free and lean production, the development of conditions for the acknowledgement and correction of estimates of recyclable and non-recyclable waste, and methods for the efficient use of recyclable waste. Methods. The work involved the observation and generalisation of empirical data regarding the economic activities of economic entities and the study of scientific economic literature. It also used methods for the theoretical analysis of provisions of regulatory documents regarding the state control of activities in the field of environmental protection and waste management. Conclusions. The paper presents a study of different types of effective environmental behaviour of economic entities. Such behaviour requires comprehensive measures aimed at using cooperative relations between economic entities and improving the accounting policies of participants of economic relations to reduce waste and to meet liquidation obligations for waste disposal and the remediation of the environment. The proposed tools for the development of a green economy, ways of acknowledging environmental costs, their estimation, control, and saving the environment will make it possible to effectively use limited natural resources.

Despite the fact that the problem of rental regulation of more and more becomes the object of scientists and practitioners attention, however, with regard to the results of the study of mining still cannot serve as a robust theoretical basis for the development of practical steps towards the establishment of organizational and economic relations and mechanisms, which would be able to determine the investment attractiveness of extractive activities and, consequently – the motivation to sustainable development. This is largely due to the fact that economic relations in mineral extracting industries, unlike other fields of activity are special. Their determinant is the existence of two types of band property relations, folding, firstly, regarding the ownership and administration of mineral resources, and, secondly, with regard to their use by entrepreneur as object of management. Therefore, between the owner of the subsoil and economic entity, there are special, rental relations in which inherently embedded contradiction in interests. It must and can be resolved solely on the principles of consensus and, we believe, through the institutionalization of these relations, their regulation and administration.

This paper deals with the modeling of the system of social and economic relations characterizing the industrial district, in the sense of an organizational form based on a set of small enterprises linked together by co-operative and competitive relationships. The authors emphasize the concept of relationship which, in the industrial district, may be of both an industrial and a social nature. The industrial district is seen as a socio-economic entity, and that is why the concept of social networks and graph theory are used to represent the co-operative and competitive relationships between enterprises in the district. The idea of network is amply used in sociological analysis and enables an adequate representation of the relationships between enterprises. Particular importance is attributed to the concept of ‘relational space’, by which the authors mean an application of the space of economic relations on the physical space defined by the system of social relations. The paper goes on to discuss the organizational form of the district, evaluated on the basis of the concept of connectance and emphasizing the particular position of the industrial district form among the various market forms. The concept of information and knowledge acquires a specific significance in connectance, in relation to which a model proposed by Boisot is used.

Despite the process of secularization and modernization, in contemporary societies, the role of sacrifice is still relevant. One of the spaces where sacrifice actually performs a critical role is the realm of modern economy, particularly in the event of a financial crisis. Such crises represent situations defined by an outrageous symbolic violence in which social and economic relations experience drastic transformations, and their victims end up suffering personal bankruptcy, indebtedness, lower standards of living or poverty. Crises show the flagrant domination present in social relations: this is proven in the way crises evolve, when more and more social groups marred by a growing vulnerability are sacrificed to appease financial markets. Inspired by the theoretical framework of the French anthropologist René Girard, our intention is to explore how the hegemonic narrative about the crisis has been developed, highlighting its sacrificial aspects.

Local and foreign scientists are now paying growing attention to various issues of property and the philosophical and ethical, political, economic, institutional, social, psychological, and other aspects of its formation, taking into account the requirements of large-scale transformation, which primarily concern post-industrial areas of social development. In consequence, as modern studies rightfully point out, considering property relations, two general restrictions should be taken into account: this is an attempt to explain the absoluteness of their roles, the presence and content of all aspects of socio-economic relations by property relations; and the denial of the role of property as one of the most important factors determining the direction of social development in the present and future.This situation forces a new look at the economic policy of the state in this area, because any financial and monetary measures taken by the government will be doomed to failure if their implementation will be without interaction with the mechanisms of the private property system. The article defines the entrepreneurial sector of the region, its interaction with the institutions of the market system operating in all sectors and spheres of the region's economy, and also shows the influence of the development of property relations on the institutions of entrepreneurship.

This essay considers the modern tradition of Catholic social teaching (CST). CST finds its roots in the biblical, patristic, and medieval periods, but was inaugurated in particular by Leo XIII’s encyclical Rerum novarum (1891) and has been sustained by a range of papal encyclicals and conciliar documents since. The documents of CST emphasize that human beings are created for mutual cooperation and a pursuit of common good in social, economic, and political life. The essay considers first CST’s developing account of how social relations may be governed by Christian charity. It then considers the nature of property within economic relations as conceived within CST. The final section considers CST’s reflections on political life, which is understood as primarily personal and dependent on relations of mutual rights and responsibilities that are directed to the common good.

While much has been written on the failure of the Yeltsin presidency and the transformation of Russian society since 1991, little work has been done that illustrates the participation of established liberal democracies in supporting Yeltsin’s authoritarian, politically unresponsive ‘superpresidentialism,’ or linking this support to the authoritarian nature of the modern liberal democratic project itself. By examining Russian trade union culture and history, as well as international trade union representative involvement, this paper argues that the persistent neglect of unions in the 1990s to challenge social relations of production can be understood as paradigmatic of an authoritarian dynamic focused on the political elite rather than on their membership. With international support, the regime’s concern was with the dismantling of Soviet economic relations and social institutions. Working from the culture and history of Russian trade unions, the unions’ efforts to retain a place in the new era through a strategy of ‘social partnership,’ combined with the collapse of the social welfare system, reinforced a top-down inertia characteristic of the unions. The result, predictably, was an era marked by a politics of irresponsibility, a political ethic is not indicative of an inherent Russian authoritarianism, but that of the authoritarian nature of the liberal modernity itself.

The article contains a historical and legal analysis of proclamations as a cumulative source of Hetmanate’s city law of the second half of 17th – 18th centuries, and their characteristic by origin and purpose. It was established that Hetmanate (a state official name was – Zaporizhian Host) was under the rule of Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth during this period with all the lands and cities, and then as a part of the Russian monarchy. It is studied that in the field of municipal government, public relations in Ukrainian cities were governed by the norms of urban law, including the provisions of local proclamations (locations) of the autonomous government ofHetmanate, which should be divided into separate specific groups. The most significant of them were those that confirmed the granting of the right to self-government of the Magdeburg sample to Ukrainian cities. The proclamations of Ukrainian hetmans of a defensive, prohibited or protective nature, which were granted to the cities of Hetmanate since the reign of B. Khmelnytskyi and including K. Rozumovskyi, protected the rights of urban communities from abuse bythe local administration and representatives of other classes. The cities were given the right to leave a significant part of the income to the city government bodies and burghers by Hetman permitting proclamations. The electoral proclamations of hetmans to certain individuals controlled the order of elections in cities and prevented abuse duringtheir conduct. The regulation proclamations, issued to the cities by hetmans and colonels, clarified the social and economic power ofmagistrates or town halls and established the economic relations of the urban inhabitants. A separate group of local proclamations consisted of those relating to the proper economic activity of urban craft workshops anddefended the social rights of burghers-artisans. It is proved that the norms of proclamations of all groups provided legal regulationof social relations in the sphere of municipal government of Left-Bank Ukraine primarily till the first city reform in Ukrainian citiesconducted by Russian Empire and the introduction of the Charter to Cities of 1785.

The article examines the definition of the term «property» in management sphere, analyses the existing definitions of the term «property» in management sphere. On this basis, the different approaches are identified and a process approach to the interpretation of a specific category is proposed. Regarding the classification of the types of property and sources of its formation, the use of terms and concepts that have expired in the legislation has been established. It is proposed to eliminate the identified differences and contradictions in the interpretation of the terms of legal regulation of property relations in management sphere in Ukraine in view of the types of property and sources of its formation. The definition of the category «property» in management sphere, which is available in current legislation and modern scientific sources, is considered. The approaches to the definition of the term «property» in management sphere are singled out, namely: property is things, assets, property of a certain type, classification-based approach and combined approach. The definition of the essence of the term «property» in management sphere is proposed to be considered according to the process approach, which is initially considered resources, which later acquire the characteristics of assets and further property. The differences and ramifications in the classification types of property under the current legislation are analysed, the ways of their elimination are offered, which will lead to the increase of efficiency of the use of the created property of the economic entity. According to the process approach, which assumes that a certain set of resources acquires the characteristics of assets, which, in turn, are part of the property of a particular entity. A distinctive feature of the proposed approach is that the property in management sphere is defined as a set of assets that are formed through a number of resources. The use of the provided proposals and elimination of identified contradictions in the classification of property types and sources of its formation will promote the intensification of various management functions of economic activity in the part of implementing economic mechanisms and regulators to optimize property formation and increase of its efficiency.
