The article describes the role of high-quality human capital in the modern economy, socioeconomic, and demographic trends in the regions. The research has revealed a certain relationship and mutual influence of economic and social factors on demographic trends. The assessment of the efficiency of the functioning of social sectors at the all-Russian Federal level and in the Ural Federal District revealed a low level of resource provision, insufficient investment in education and healthcare, which affects the state of fixed assets, leads to a low capital-labour ratio, and lags in terms of labour productivity in these sectors compared to indicators on average for the country's economy. An insufficient level of efficiency of the social sphere affects the social and demographic indicators. On the example of Russia and the Ural Federal District, a stable mutual influence of the economic situation and social aspects of population reproduction is shown. For a quantitative assessment of the relationship between economic, social and demographic processes in the Ural Federal District, indicators were selected for 6 subjects of the Ural Federal District for 2000-2018, the calculation was made using the methods of correlation and regression analysis, the coefficient of natural population growth was chosen as the main indicator characterizing the demographic trends. The model of the impact of socioeconomic indicators on demographic trends in the subjects of the Ural Federal Districts were built. With the unconditional impact of the incidence rate on the change in natural population growth, significant values were obtained for the following factors: an increase in the expenditures of the budgets of territorial compulsory health insurance funds, an increase in the share of the working-age population, an improvement in the welfare of the population, which contributes to an increase in average life expectancy, a reduction in mortality, and acceleration of demographic processes in the regions

For the functioning and development of society the great significancehave demographic processes and changes (natural population growth,fertility, birth rate, mortality rate, aging of population, changes in regardto marriage, the frequency of celibacy, divorce). This paper analyzesthe causes and consequences of these processes and changes incontemporary society. The trends of demographic changes are not thesame in all societies in the world. In developed societies today can beobserved, with minor differences, the same demographic trends - lowand/or negative natural population growth, the rapid aging of population,low mortality rates, increasing of the divorces and the like. Onthe other hand, in underdeveloped societies are born many children,where weak economic conditions are conducive to a deterioration inthe material, social and health status of the population (illness andmortality, particularly of women and children). This clearly indicatesthat demographic processes and changes are not directly influencedby economic and social factors (the level of education, the developmentof society in general, etc.), but that there are a number of indirectsocial factors causing it (national, class, political, cultural, religiousand other). In response to the unfavorable demographic trends(population size, the age of the population, etc.) and the consequenceswhich population factor creates in many economic and social areas(reduction of the working population, the burden of social securityfunds, etc.), in the past two decades in the most countries populationpolicy was placed in the area of population fertility - there were introducedthe pro-natalist measures in developed countries and measuresto discourage procreation in underdeveloped countries.

The article presents the results of assessing the level of social capital of a university department, the mutual influence of the type of organizational culture and the effectiveness of its work. In the course of the study, the concept of social capital was generalized and refined in the context of the concept of sustainable education, as well as in relation to an educational institution, to the community of a higher educational organization. There were tested the ideas of N.P. Makarkin and O.B. Tomilina about the impact of organizational culture on the efficiency of the university. To ensure the comparison of the different departments data with each other there was proposed a method for bringing to a single scale of assessments and calculating weighted average indicators, which made it possible to derive a single integral assessment of the social capital of a department/unit.

<p>As the longest river in Asia, the Yangtze River has shown its impact on human societies with floods recorded since 12<sup>th</sup> century. In 1931, the Yangtze River has manifested its force again with one of the deadliest floods ever recorded in Chinese history, causing 422,499 casualties, damages to more than 25.2 million people and 58.7 billion m<sup>2</sup> farmland. The impact of the 1931 flood, resulting in the increment of rice price, has remained till 1933. Researches on the 1931 flood damage has shown its direct causation including political corruption, technical backwardness, and meteorological abnormality. However, in a long-term period, it is still unclear if the change of society has intensified the vulnerability of flood or some hydrological extremes has accelerated the social transformations. Here we propose a conceptual socio-hydrological framework within which the mutual influence between society and water system is analyzed. To address the issue of data scarcity, we applied the Water and Energy Budget-based Distributed Hydrological Model (WEB-DHM) to reconstruct the hydrological conditions in the early 20<sup>th</sup> century of China, based on which the potential rice production was estimated. With the reconstructed data, we found that the change of the social structure of villages aggravated the vulnerability of agricultural production towards natural hazards, and hydrological extremes speeded-up such structure change. Our results demonstrate how reconstructed data is likely to help comprehend a socio-hydrology system under a conceptual framework, shedding light on the inner correlation of a pre-industrial society like the early 20<sup>th</sup> century of China. We anticipate our study to be a starting point for more sophisticated socio-hydrological models, which will likely to be applicable to many other regions and times.</p>

The paper presents the results of the demographic processes analyses study in the South of European part of Russia in comparison with national outcomes. The research is based on a GIS monitoring concept and reveals the main characteristics of population size dynamic pattern with the influence of prevailing reproduction processes. The main sources of data are the office for national statistics and various regional statistics sources. ESRI ArcGIS Spatial Analyst software platform is used as a primary analytical framework. The study case covers the time frame from 1959 to 2018. Developing map models of the population’s natural reproduction brings out the depopulation speed and direction as a primary trend in Russia’s demographic development. At the beginning of the XXI century’s third decade, there is a significant reduction in the number of regions with positive natural population growth. The regions with decreasing in population have prevailed. The positive natural population growth preserves mainly in national territorial subdivisions with an unfinished demographic transition. The demographic picture in the south of European part of Russia looks relatively propitious. Negative demographic trends arise with a delay and have not reached the critical levels yet. The obvious polarization of demographic space in the south of Russia has educed — there are two areas with unequal trends of population growth: South-East area with a sustainable increase in the population and a migration outflow, the North-West area with a natural decline in the population and an erratic positive migration balance. Though the area with a sustainable increase in the population is reducing, showing positive trends in Krasnodar Krai and Republic of Adygea. The ethnic republic’s migration outflow is stable.

The object of the study. Regional economy. The subject of the study. Socio-economic relations, which transform into conditions that cause threats and affect the level of personal welfare in the territory of residence. The Purpose of the study. Diagnosing the welfare of the individual in the territory of residence taking into account the impact of the security and cooperation in the region. The Main Aspects of the Article. 1. A modular scheme of the welfare of the individual in the territory of residence is presented. Two insignificant modules for diagnosing the well-being of an individual in the territory of residence were removed and multicollenarity of indicators was excluded. 2. We developed an express-diagnostics of the welfare of the individual in the territory of residence taking into account the security and cooperation in the region based on cross-correlation function. The analysis of the mutual influence of economic security and welfare of the individual in the territory of residence with a gradation in the types of interaction is given. Three types of interaction have been identified: a) a simultaneous increase in indicators of welfare of individual in the territory of residence and indicators of economic security; b) indicators of economic security act as supporting elements for indicators of welfare of the individual in the territory of residence; c) stationary behavior of indicators of both modules. 3. The scalar potential of the interaction between economic security and of the welfare of individual in the territory is proposed, for which a stable position is allocated. This potential takes into account all three types of interaction of personal welfare in the territory of residence with economic potential. 4. The results of the subjects of the Ural Federal District are classified according to main types of crises. Comparison of the situation of the subjects of the Ural Federal District during the financial and economic crisis of 2008-2009 is considered in detail and that of stagnation period of 2016-2019.

The problem of the study. The article is devoted to the problems of the development of railway and road transport in Russia and their influence on the formation of the population of Russia in 2009-2018. First of all, territories are considered, depending on the intensity of migration and natural population growth, which are included in groups with different density of railways for 2018. Purpose of research. The key goal of the proposed study is to study and identify, on the basis of statistical data, the influence of the density of railway transport on migration processes and indicators of the natural movement of the population. Methodology and methods. The analysis was carried out in groups that unite territories with different density of railways and highways. And also by groups with different intensity of migration and natural population growth. Research results. The results of the study made it possible to establish: the development of the railway network in 2009-2018 was not active. During the period under review, the density of railways increased only in 16 territories of the country. In 53 territories, the situation with railways has not changed. A diametrically opposite situation has developed with the density of highways. That is, the development proceeded due to the increase in paved roads. Scientific novelty. As a result of the study, based on statistical data, it was revealed that most of the territories with a positive migration increase are included in the group with the highest density of railways. And most of the territories with positive natural growth are included in the group with low density of railways.

In recent years, the influence of European law on national social policy has increased substantially. In this respect, the impact of the European competition and procurement law on healthcare and social policy in Germany is particularly significant, affecting the social economy in a specific way. At the same time, the importance of social aspects in community law, for example through the Charter of Fundamental Rights of the EU, is also increasing. This state of affairs demands an examination of not only the mutual influence of different legal fields on and the material and formal organisational alternatives open to social policy in Germany, but also the relationship between solidarity and subsidiarity in this respect. This book contains both up-to-date contributions to an academic conference and further articles on the background to this subject, individual topics related to it and its legal and political consequences. The authors are renowned experts from the fields of law, political science and the wider working world. The book will appeal to those working in the economy and administration as well as academics and other readers interested in examining the consequences of the Europeanisation process for the social economy and health management in Germany in more depth.

The article, based on the correlation and regression analysis, we investigate the relationship between demographic processes and productivity of social labor. To this end, consider that processes such as rejuvenation and aging population, fertility, mortality, nuptiality, divorces, migration. As indicators reflecting demographic processes are used: the average age of the population; reproduction rate, indicators of marriage and divorce; ubyvshih number from the Russian Federation and arrivals in the same territory. The result revealed that among all demographic processes and productivity of social labor, there is a close relationship, which is confirmed by the corresponding regression coefficients. Disclosure extent this relationship possible to determine the factors influencing the growth of national income, including through action on the social and demographic policy of the country.

The article analyzes the existing approaches to assessing the impact of labor migration on the state and functioning of the labor market. The authors developed a methodology for assessing the dependence of the scale of labor migration on the social and economic factors of the region, such as the level of economic development, the level of accessibility of medical and social services, the level of material well-being, and the level of spiritual development. These factors are determined by the statistical indicators for the Volga Federal District (VFD) and ranked by an expert survey. This methodology allows predicting the extent and direction of migration flows based on the data of a specific region.
