The need to ensure balanced innovative development of Ukraine is due to global uncertainty, dynamic processes and structural changes that are taking place today in the global economy. In these conditions, it is relevant to determine the position of Ukraine in the global coordinate system precisely in terms of innovation. Assessment of the state of the scientific and technical sphere, innovative development, research results in the countries of the world at the international level is carried out according to many indicators of various ratings, the most authoritative of which are: Global Innovation Index, Global Competitiveness Index, European Innovation Scoreboard. An analysis of the achieved level of innovative development of the Ukrainian economy in terms of international ratings requires the determination of methodological principles for their calculation. According to the results of the study, it was found that, despite some positive trends, in general, there is a significant gap between the level of innovative development of Ukraine and developed countries. It was found that the position of our country on the Global Competitiveness Index in the past few years has fluctuated between 76-89 places, in accordance with which, it is concluded that there are no effective reforms in the field of research, technology and innovation. The study of innovative activities of European countries and countries - regional neighbors demonstrated Ukraine's membership in the group with the status of «Modest Innovator». Low values of the analyzed indicators in international ratings are associated with errors in government policy and existing problems in the innovation sphere - the use of human potential, the quality of innovation infrastructure, the formation of sustainable relationships between elements of the national innovation system as a whole. The issues of cooperation with international institutions and poor integration into international scientific, technical and innovative cooperation remain unresolved. In this regard, steps are proposed in the direction of Ukraine joining the global innovation processes, which will bring the rating results closer to the level of developed countries in the future.

Neste artigo, estuda-se a importância das patentes e seu impacto no The Business School for the World do Global Innovation Index (GII, 2012) e no desenvolvimento econômico dos países emergentes mediante análise do The Global Competitiveness Index (GCI, 2013) do World Economic Forum (WEF). Os países abordados neste estudo são: Brasil, Rússia, Índia, China e África do Sul (BRICS). Neste contexto, busca-se responder as duas seguintes proposições: A – as patentes podem influenciar de forma favorável o desenvolvimento da inovação de um país integrante do Brics. B – as patentes não influenciam de forma desfavorável nenhum país componente do Brics. A metodologia utilizada privilegiou dados secundários obtidos nos relatórios GII e GCI suportada por uma revisão de literatura e criação de um algoritmo para-analisador. A aplicação da Lógica Paraconsistente Anotada (LPA-2v) forneceu parâmetros para analisar e discutir os resultados a fim de formular estratégias e avaliar tendências.

Metody oceny grupowej pozwalają na utworzenie syntetycznego (wypadkowego) rankingu analizowanych obiektów na bazie dostępnych już rankingów pochodzących od niezależnych ekspertów. Celem pracy jest uporządkowanie krajów członkowskich UE ze względu na poziom rozwoju gospodarczego na podstawie opracowanego rankingu wypadkowego, powstałego z popularnych w literaturze przedmiotu indeksów międzynarodowych. Zakwalifikowane do analizy mierniki syntetyczne podzielono na cztery grupy, tj. innowacyjność, konkurencyjność, wiedza, przedsiębiorczość. W pracy uwzględniono rankingi opracowane na bazie indeksów: Global Innovation Index, Global Creativity Index, Global Competitiveness Index, Summary Innovation Index, Innovation Output Indicator. Do analizy zastosowano metodę Bordy i Dodgsona. Obliczeń dokonano za pomocą autorskiego programu komputerowego. Przeprowadzona analiza wykazała, że zaproponowany ranking wypadkowy służy bardziej ocenie ogólnie pojętego rozwoju w wymiarze społeczno‑ekonomicznym niż jedynie wzrostu gospodarczego. Uzyskane wyniki wskazują na silną korelację między rankingami wypadkowymi a wybranymi indeksami sumarycznymi. Jednocześnie występują znaczne rozbieżności między rankingami wypadkowymi a porządkowaniem krajów zgodnie z wartościami PKB per capita.
