In this article the relationship between Cooperation for Development and capitalist development is examined, focusing specially on changes in both processes during the last decades. It is argued that Development Cooperation is a part of the world economic structure, designed by capitalism along its different phases (in an international dimension, first; and global afterwards), so its functionality is embodied in the capitalist logical scheme itself. This paper outlines the narrow relationship between the cooperation models and the logics of reproduction of World System, both in its structure and superstructure dimensions. A Pro System cooperation practice is distinguished from an Anti System one, and some preliminary conclusions are derived about the need of improvements in Development Cooperation in order to promote truly structural changes.

The countries of the Western Balkans are facing a number of challenges. One of the most acute ones, certainly, is improving the efficiency of public expenditure. Having this in mind, the main research objective of the paper is to present the interdependence between public expenditure and economic growth in the Western Balkans. In addition, the analysis is focused on the efficiency of public expenditure in the group of the above-stated countries, as well as the relationship between the size of public expenditure and its efficiency in these countries. Data from the International Monetary Fund, the World Bank and the World Economic Forum were used for the analysis. The results reveal that this interdependence in the countries of the Western Balkans, in addition to different intensity, has a different direction.

Purpose: to study and analyze technical and technological constituent of the agro-industrial complex of Russia in the context of a new world economic structure formation and to highlight main issues and development potential. Methods. The monographic, analytical, abstract-logical methods and the method of monitoring studies were used in the course of research. Results. The development of the world economy is characterized by an unsteady and utterly unstable political situation, the “reshaping” of trade and economic relations, the accelerated development of high technologies and their active implementation in the production sphere, which forms the contours of a new world economic structure. As studies show, in our country there is a significant lag in technical and technological provision of the agricultural sector, low innovative activity of agricultural producers in comparison with the advanced agricultural countries, which does not allow fully realize the potential of the industry. If in the developed agrarian countries of the world there is a transition to the sixth technological structure based on the use of science-intensive technologies and innovations, then in Russia there is a simultaneous use of production technologies of the second, third, fourth and fifth technological orders with a predominance of the third and fourth orders, which in its own turn forms a significant lag of our country from the countries – leaders of the agricultural sector. In this regard, the key issues are: technical and technological modernization and digitalization of the agricultural industry, increasing the innovative activity of agribusiness entities, the widespread use of scientific achievements of the fifth technological structure and an accelerated transition to the sixth one. Conclusions. In order to strengthen Russia's position on the international agricultural market by realizing the competitive advantages of domestic goods and industries, it is proposed to develop and implement a unified state policy of the country's agricultural sector modernization.

The paper analyzes changes in the structure of the real sector of world economy that have increased economic instability and made the Keynesian methods inapplicable for suppressing the oscillation amplitude in economic cycle. The abrupt expansion of two segments in the service sector is noted: the debt derivatives market and entertainment industry. The global financial-economic crisis that started in 2008 cannot be attributed to the processes in the financial sphere alone it serves as a manifestation of general civilization crisis. Measures, analogous to the internalization of external effects, are proposed to mitigate the adverse impact of the hypertrophic development of new segments in the service sector on the world economic system and the civilization as a whole.

Ambient air pollution represents a global health crisis, leading to 7 million annual deaths worldwide. The rise of a “global environmental regime” manifests in the widespread adoption of environmental policies and laws to reduce ambient air pollution, but debate remains whether they have any effect. Scholars argue that the relationship between the global environmental regime and air pollution depends on the penetration of the global environmental regime. In this analysis, I argue that the relationship between the global environmental regime and air pollution levels is contingent on a country’s position in the world-system. Using fixed effects panel analyses of 144 countries from 1990 to 2010, I find embeddedness in the global environmental regime does predict lower national air pollution levels. This effect, however, is smaller in semi-peripheral and peripheral countries. These findings contribute to an emerging body of scholarship integrating world society and world systems approaches in the study of the environment.

Since the world system emerged in the mid-19th century, the stages of capitalist development have all been initiated by economic crises. But unlike the crises of 1873, 1929 or 1973, that of 2007 did not signal the end of the neoliberal stage, but rather its continuation in more extreme forms. This break in the previous pattern requires us to periodize neoliberalism itself and understand how the cumulative effect of the policies implemented during the ‘vanguard’ and ‘social’ periods prepared the way for the current ‘crisis’ period, by restricting the options available to political and state managerial representatives of capital. By reorganizing political economy in such a way that states respond to short-term demands by key sectors of capital rather than the needs of the system as a whole, neoliberalism has inadvertently undermined the accumulation process, producing permanent ‘states of exception’ as the only means of containing the resulting social crisis.

The article deals with the problem of the world-system analysis as a methodological basis for writing a textbook on world economic history for universities. An attempt is made to formulate what a textbook on such a basis should be. Strong and weak points of this scientific approach are distinguished. A conclusion is made that the author of the textbook under study has successfully achieved the goal — to present a panorama of economic history from the ancient times to the early twenty-first century consistently using the world-system paradigm.

This paper reports results from an analysis of the relationship between the structure of the city-to-city network of global airline passenger flows and the interstate world system. While many scholars suggest that the broader parameters of the world system structure the urban hierarchy embedded within or articulated to it, others argue that the urban hierarchy is decoupling from the world system. The analyses show that there has been some modest convergence in the distribution of power in the world city system. Moreover, they suggest that the mechanism for this convergence is the upward mobility of cities located in the semi-periphery and the east Asian region. The paper closes by considering the implication of these findings for a larger understanding of the relationship between globalisation, the structure of the world city system and its articulation with the world system.

based on the macroeconomic indicators of exports and direct investment from the country, a model of the process of deglobalization of the world economy, which began in 2008, was developed, which became particularly clear during the pandemic. To determine the countries of the center and the periphery, the k-means method of cluster analysis was used. As a result, a clear illustration of the distribution of the roles of countries in the world economy according to the theory of world-system analysis was obtained, as well as the relationship between the macroeconomic indicators of individual countries and the share of world trade in world GDP was established. The results obtained can be used in further studies, which will be based on the data of the macroeconomic indicators of the pandemic period.
