Abstract The main task of the research was to investigate and differentiate the historical stages of the formation of Ukraine's geopolitical view, based on the Ukrainian statehood history and works of key researches, which had been directly influenced by the evolution of its geopolitical consciousness and thinking. In the article, three main historical stages of Ukraine's geopolitical view formation were differentiated and the reason why the state's geopolitical view gradually transformed into the state's geopolitical interest after Ukraine attained independence was substantiated. The article includes a SWOT analysis of Ukraine's geopolitical location, based on which the state's geopolitical interests of local, regional and global levels were represented. As Ukraine is in the field of geopolitical orientation of many countries not only in Europe but also around the world, the study of the state's geopolitical view formation and current transformation is topical and can be useful for foreign researchers.

Development economics was born as a distinct disciplinary field in the aftermath of World War II, when the development of so-called Third World countries, due to the dynamics of decolonization and the Cold War, became an international priority. At the institutional level, the birth of development economics was paralleled by the reorientation of the International Bank for Reconstruction and Development (so-called the World Bank) from the support of European reconstruction to funding development policies worldwide. Not surprisingly, the paths of the Bank and of pioneers of development economics often crossed, and it is fair to say that the Bank and the new discipline—from the perspective of the history and sociology of social sciences—are part of the same story. Indeed, one would think that the Bank was the natural place for the breeding of development economics. This seems coherent with the image we have of the Bank today: the reign of economists. Yet, for most of the years when development theory was shaped, the Bank, although very active in development policies worldwide, was remarkably silent in the field of development economics. This paper will connect the study of economic ideas and economists in international organizations with the history of economic policies. Based on previously untapped archival sources, it will discuss how the history of development economics and of development organizations—and especially the largest among them, that is, the World Bank—proceeded separated for a long stretch of time, and how they later converged.

In the article the author highlights the need to use matrix methods in the strategic analysis of the industry. The main task of the article is to study the matrix methods, determine the advantages and disadvantages of these methods and justify the need to use them in the strategic analysis of the grain industry of Ukraine. The author focuses on the fact that today agriculture occupies a significant share in the formation of the country's GDP and export structure. The grain industry, as a component of the agricultural sector, provides food security and fills the country's budget with money. The author analyzes the indicators of the grain industry and points to its priority in agriculture. In recent years, Ukraine has been an important player in international grain trade, accounting for 12% of the world market. The use of modern methods of strategic analysis allows to ensure rapid adaptation to external conditions, reduce uncertainty and risk in economic activities and ensure the concentration of resources in selected priority areas. In the article shows that the use of matrix methods in the strategic analysis of the grain industry will determine the advantages and disadvantages of the grain market and choose the optimal direction of development. The main matrix models are characterized and the analysis of the domestic and world grain market according to the main matrices is carried out. In particular, SWOT-analysis was used to identify the strengths and weaknesses, opportunities and threats of the grain industry of Ukraine, BCG and McKinsey matrices were built to determine the attractiveness of the grain market. Different matrices and methods can be used separately or in combination to develop a strategy for the development of the grain industry of Ukraine. In general, the development of a strategy for the grain industry is an important tool for maintaining the country's leading position in the world market in the face of unpredictable changes in the environment and the growing number of competitors. The use of different matrix methods for effective strategic analysis of the grain industry will allow a broader study of different groups of competing and consumer countries.

The subject of this article is the genesis of the professional culture of personnel management. The last decades of the 20th century were marked by various revolutions - scientific, technical, democratic, informational, sexual, etc. Their cumulative effect has been mostly reflected in the professional revolution that shapes the professional society around the world. This social revolution has global consequences. In addition to its extensive parameters, it also has intensive ones related to the deeply-rooted structural changes in the ways of working and thinking, as well as in the forms of its social organization. The professional revolutions in the history of Modern Times stem from this theory. Employees’ awareness and accountability shall be strengthened. The leader must be able to formulate and bring closer to the employees the vision of the organization and its future goal, to which all shall aspire. He should pay attention not to the "letter" but to the "spirit" of this approach.

Building structures made of solid and glued timber have long been widely used in many countries of the world, they have existed for several centuries. Their appearance is due to the fact that the available material, wood of natural origin, often could not be obtained with the desired section and quality. The simplest solution to this problem was the flaking of wooden fragments into one solid monolithic element. With the advent of effective technologies, all kinds of production of a large number of various wooden structures appeared, which opened up much more opportunities for designing with glued timber, and its ability to bend and fit into the desired shape, contributed to their use in the manufacture of arched structures. The arch is one of the most interesting and effective designs, the shape of an arch is very common in nature, which speaks of a bionic approach to design, which, by its form, bears both aesthetic and practical significance. Arches have been used by mankind since ancient times, and to be precise, they first appeared in the II millennium BC in the architecture of the Ancient East, Ancient Egypt, Ancient Mesopotamia, ancient and Hellenic Syria, and continue to be used to this day, which speaks of their eternal relevance and the need for further improvement and development of this constructive form. The paper considers the process of formation and development of arched structures, in general, and in particular from wood. This work will be able to help to more accurately understand the processes that have influenced, influence and will influence the calculation and design of arched structures, which in turn will help formulate a more competent approach to the design and modification of this structural form. Also, the advantages of glued timber design, its best application in construction and architecture, as well as the advantages of using arched structures will be revealed again.

The article represents the history of studies of human diseases caused by faсultative parasites of humans, animals and plants, attributed by microbiologist V.I. Terskych in 1958 to the third class of infections named sapronoses. The concept of sapronous pathogens ecology is one of priorities of Russian medicine. Since that time, facts and generalizations have been accumulated in the world and national science, allowing to revise the initial concept of sapronous infections of biota — from prokaryotes, plants and invertebrates to warm-blooded animals and humans. To decide the controversial issues of the sapronoses theory, epidemiological terminology and systematics of infectious pathology, it is necessary to integrate the knowledge and systemic participation of specialists in medicine and biology in studying this problem. The results of this cooperation will make it possible to clarify and form a unified theoretical concept of the population pathology of the biota based on the ecological approach and general biological regularities of life existence in the world.

In the modern world, a doctor of any specialty knows about a relatively new direction in the treatment of severe and previously untreatable diseases - stem cell (SC) transplantation. A scientific discussion around this is an actively developing direction. At present time laboratory studies of the cell therapy have gone beyond the limits of the experiment and began to actively find their application in practical medicine, which gives rise to scientific, ethical, legal and legislative problems. Thousands of laboratory experiments and clinical studies are carried out around the world, hundreds of stem cell culture laboratories and clinics are opened that use cell transplantation for the treatment of a wide range of diseases. The world governments start introduce SC transplantation into the medical system. The classical dogma that CNS cells are unable to regenerate has been challenged in recent decades by studies demonstrating new mechanisms of stem cell migration in the brain in trauma models. One of the most popular and promising areas for using cell therapy is treatment of nervous system diseases. Today, the actual problem for society is the cost of treating the consequences of moderate and severe traumatic brain injury, due to the wide prevalence (30-40% of all types of traumas), high disability rate in the working-age population and the global trend increase number of TBI cases by constant development of the technogenic environment. The review provides information on the history of development, legal, bioethical aspects, the prospects for the use of SC in the treatment of TBI.
