The contemporary research in the field of economic and legal assessment of e-trade development, published in Russia, provides a general description of the situation and prospects for the development of international online transactions. At the same time, the aggregate features of taxation of cross-border e-commerce (which is the paper’s subject) are highlighted, without focusing on indirect methods of tax regulation (which are the object of the paper). Based on previous theoretical, methodological and practical studies, the authors systematize the knowledge about cross-border e-commerce operations’ indirect tax regulation both at the national and interstate level, defining the main approaches to taxation in this area. They also propose to focus on the priority of the regulatory (stimulating) role of taxes in their application as tools for influencing international online trading transactions. The main provisions of the paper reveal the principles and features of collecting value-added tax (VAT), excise, customs, and postal duties in the field of export-import e-trade operations with goods, digital content, and electronic services in national tax systems. In addition, this paper characterizes the main directions of international coordination of cross-border e-commerce indirect taxation. The authors have proven their hypothesis that the rapid development of cross-border e-trade in the modern world makes this field of international economic relations attractive enough to enhance the fiscal role of indirect taxation at the national level; however, the difficulties for the global economy early in the third decade of the 21st century require prioritizing the regulating (stimulating) role of indirect taxes to support global economic and trade operations growth, including its electronic segment.

In this article, I tried to illustrate a brief history of Buddhist Studies in the Western world and role of Mongolian Buddhism in its history and future prospects. Buddhist Studies is an independent academic discipline that pioneered by outstanding Western scholars and it covers roughly 200 years. In the modern world, Buddhist Studies has formed interdisciplinary academic research, and expands its research area with new requirements of society and newly discovered manuscripts. From the outset of the Buddhist Studies, western scholars involved with Mongolian Buddhism and manuscripts; however, unfortunately Buddhist Studies in the Mongolian context could not develop in parallel with its rapid development. In other words, Mongolian Buddhism comparatively has been slighted in the past history of Buddhist Studies. The researches by domestic scholars have been reviving after 1960. Only foreign scholars do conspicuous researches on the Mongolian Buddhism, but domestic scholars are not active on the academic research due to some reasons. First of all we should define what makes Buddhism “Mongolian”. We should describe identity of the Mongolian Buddhism, and then we able to analyze its past, present and future prospects. I assume the following five tendencies explore researches of the Mongolian Buddhism.Assimilation of Buddhism with Mongolian tradition and customs, syncretism of Buddhism and Mongolian traditional shamanism Distinctive character of Mongolian monasticism, secularity, role of Buddhism in the Mongolian society Study of ethnic Mongolian lamas as influential historical figuresResearch of Mongolian Canons and other sources in Mongolian language, and their translation Study on Tibetan and Mongolian works by Mongolian lamas in comparison with doctrinally affiliated works

Subject Asia's changing role in global supply chains. Significance Asian supply chains and their role in the global economy are undergoing far-reaching change. They are shifting from a low-cost model based on a set of particular exports to Western developed countries to prioritising high value-added trade and putting stronger emphasis on Asian markets. Handling a wider variety of products and matching rapidly changing demand is becoming a top priority, making the role of technologically advanced suppliers of key inputs, including small and medium companies (SMEs), increasingly important. Impacts Demographic change will catalyse changes in consumption patterns and supply chains. Supply chains' development will drive demand for automation technology. South-east Asian supply chains will be constrained until infrastructure improves.

The relevance of the research shows solutions journalism as a necessary tool for providing information to the audience that emphasizes problem solving rather than the problems themselves, enhancing the relevance of the text, clarifying its purpose, and encouraging readers to take action. The main objective of the article is to investigate the peculiarities of solutions journalism as a modern phenomenon in journalism and to analyze the importance to implement social responsibility in media structures in order to provide solutions to existing problems, not just describe them. The methodology of the article includes: approaches to the definition of the concepts of «solutions journalism» have been explored through analysis and synthesis; using the systematic method, the criteria for defining «solutions journalism» and its difference from similar terms are formed; the comparative method to analyse the audience involvement in solving social problems before and after the emergence of «solutions journalism» was carried out; content analysis made it possible to examine the use of the terms «problem» and «solution» by society in the Internet; SWOT analysis explores peculiarities of solutions journalism; the cognitive mapping method identifies cause-and-effect relations to the importance of creating social projects by media structures. Research findings show that experts in solutions journalism explain that this approach complements the traditional role of the press, giving a fuller perspective on issues for society. Moreover, under the initiative of Sparknews, an international network of positive-impact solutions journalism, a day dedicated to solutions journalism – Impact Journalism Day – was launched. Moreover, media not only transform their texts into solutions journalism, but also create projects that help solving current problems, including the BBC's «100 Women» Project, CNN's #MyFreedomDay Project, the NY Times's «1619 Project», as well as the social project «People of Ideas +. #ForgetAboutAge» by the 1+1 Media Group. As a conclusion, we can say that in the modern world a rethinking of the role of the media is needed. Journalism cannot continue to cover only problems, and to suppress the readers by illuminating the challenges facing humanity. It is important to promote «value-added journalism», which we call as «solutions journalism» in the article.

This chapter analyzes the landscape role in the promotion of wine and tourism of the five most emblematic Portuguese winegrowing regions. The use of landscape in promotional images strengthens the regional identity, becoming a value-added component for wine marketing and tourism destination. Both have great significance in enhancing the growth of winegrowing regions. The global economy and mechanization of viticulture operations tend to simplify and specialize land-use vine parcels, particularly in areas of sustainable large wine production, according to European Union rules. This research implemented an innovative and integrative approach that represents and focuses on the promotional features of producers, tourism, and their official bodies. Selected images were sorted into landscape, trademark, and tourism categories, and evaluated via Cohen's textual model, followed by a multiple correspondence factorial analysis. The results showed a hierarchy of categories and variables consistent with their expression in promotional features.

Taxation is an important tool of fiscal policy which fills the revenue needs of the government. The introduction of different forms of tax worldwide has rekindled the research in the domain of public finance. The introduction of Value Added Tax has attracted a lot of research in the recent past. The comprehensive review of indirect taxation particularly VAT reveals that Value Added Tax had been mostly studied at national level. While the Value Added Tax has been implemented at both national and sub national level, worldwide research on sub national level is limited. This paper fills this void and tries to examine the revenue impact of Value Added Tax in Indian context particularly for the state of Madhya Pradesh. Using regression technique on data collected for Madhya Pradesh public finances, we try to examine the revenue performance of Value Added Tax in Madhya Pradesh. Madhya Pradesh implemented Value Added Tax in April 2006. Our analysis shows that not only Value Added Tax has performed better than the sales tax which it replaced, but also it has been successful in contributing to MP’s own revenue performance.

The dynamics of the modern world requires a quick response, the need for constant updating of knowledge and skills is growing, the importance of formal diplomas in the labor market is decreasing (inflation of credentialism), and the role of non-formal education is increasing. The purpose of the research presented in this article is to identify promising areas of professional activity in a high-tech economy and the potential of non-formal education for mastering the professions of the future. The authors conducted a qualitative content analysis of job search sites, illustrating the indicators of demand for the professions of the future in different countries, the key skills required for these professions, the resources of formal and non-formal education for mastering these professions. An empirical study was carried out using the survey method (N = 1388, the age of the respondents was from 18 to 80 years old, data analysis was made by using SPSS), conducted in Russia, revealing involvement in non-formal education. The novelty of the study derives from the role of non-formal education, which prevails in mastering the professions of the future: the absolute majority (85%) use non-formal education for retraining, gaining knowledge in related fields. According to the results of the study, it was found that the range of professions of the future reflects uneven post-industrial transition in different countries, in Russia the role of non-formal education as an element of life-long learning is rising. The authors conclude that the labor market, where the professions of the future are represented, will not be characterized by credentialism; individual learning paths based on non-formal education will dominate in mastering these professions.

The year 2020 is witnessing a global health and economic crisis due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Countries across the world are using digital technologies to fight this global crisis. These digital technologies strongly rely, in one way or another, on the availability of wireless communication systems. This paper aims to outline the role of wireless communications in the COVID-19 pandemic from multiple perspectives. First, we show how wireless communication technologies are helping to combat this pandemic by monitoring the spread of the virus, enabling healthcare automation, and enabling virtual education and conferencing. We emphasize the importance of digital inclusiveness in the pandemic and possible solutions to connect the unconnected. Next, we discuss the challenges posed by the use of wireless technologies, including concerns about privacy, security, and misinformation. Later, we highlight the importance of wireless technologies in the survival of the global economy, such as automation of industries and supply chain, e-commerce, and supporting occupations that are at risk. Finally, we outline that the rapid development of wireless technologies during the pandemic is likely to be useful in the post-pandemic era.
