The indicators that determine the change in the macroeconomic situation in the economy of Azerbaijan in 2010–2017, as well as the conditions for increasing the effectiveness of state intervention in solving economic problems are analyzed. It is noted that it is not the size of the public sector that becomes important, but its qualitative component (management and redistribution of resources and revenues, coordination of government intervention in economic relations). The main reasons limiting economic growth are identified, and the mechanisms for overcoming them are disclosed, since economic growth is of particular importance in the transformational period of state development. It substantiates the assertion that the forms and methods of state regulation should be the result of a reasonable combination of the private and public sectors of the economy to more effectively achieve the goal of economic development of the country and increase the welfare of the population. To this end, it is advisable to limit the actions of market forces and find a rational ratio of market and government measures that stimulate economic growth and development.It is shown that in the near future the development of the economy of Azerbaijan should be focused on the transition to the integration of various models of economic transformation; at the same time, “attraction of investments” should be carried out by methods of stimulating consumption, and the concept of a socially oriented economy, which the state also implements, should prevail, thereby ensuring social protection of the population and at the same time developing market relations. Disproportions in regional and sectoral development are also noted, which are the result of an ineffective distribution of goods produced, inadequate investment in human capital, a low level of coordination and stimulation of economic growth and development.

The paper analyzes the organization of effective resource saving of the enterprise. Enterprises need to implement innovative technologies and tools, as well as to motivate all participants in the process to achieve high overall productivity. One of the ways to increase the efficiency and rationality of the activity is the introduction of the management system of development of resource saving enterprise (RSE). The EPR management system is influenced by external and internal factors. One of the main factors of the external environment is the state regulation in the direction of resource saving, because a small number of business entities can turn to the development of resource-saving enterprises without state support. Defined the concept of "resource saving" as a complex positive effect on the state of the company, which combines the economic, social and environmental factors, the result of the implementation of resource conservation is economically viable for the company. The process of resource saving at the enterprise positively affects a wide range of subjects who perceive its results. According to international standards, Ukraine's economy is one of the most resource-intensive in the world through a large proportion of resource-intensive industries, outdated and inefficient technology, extreme depreciation of assets, inefficient systems of transformation and energy supply. World experience in the development and implementation of resource saving programs has a great variety of mechanisms and economic methods to ensure the efficiency of resource consumption in all areas of economic activity. The article highlights the most effective methods and applied to the realities of Ukraine. The study revealed the main problems of Ukrainian enterprises in the management of resource protection and development of resource protection. Today, finding ways of solving these problems and determining the main ways of stimulating enterprise teams and personnel management is especially important for the formation and implementation of an effective system of resource-saving development.

Purpose of research. The purpose of this article is to implement applied social indicators as the means of research, collection and processing of statistical and practical information. The article analyzes the guidelines and measures of the real effectiveness of state regulation and economic transformations that determine the prospects for implementing demographic policy on the example of the Krasnodar territory.The search for constructive solutions to the accumulated social problems of “saving the nation” is the subject of the most active and close attention of society, while social guidelines and indicators of the functioning of the economy remain unobvious, outdated, or even completely harmful, as, for example, the usual indicators of the SNA.For more than a quarter of a century, it has been known fr om a World Bank study conducted on the example of 192 countries of the modern world that 64% of economic growth is provided by human and social capital. It is also obvious that the quality of human resources is becoming the main factor for ensuring a competitive economy. Only with regard to demographic factors and structural characteristics of the demographic potential, the harmonization of the economic growth model with the solution of socio-demographic problems, it is possible to modernize the economy. Meanwhile, according to most experts, including the Institute of Socio-Economic Studies of Population of Russian Academy of Sciences, at least another ten years, population of Russia will decrease and in parallel, to worsen the situation with people's health.Materials and methods. Methodological conclusions and fundamental principles of modern economic science, including institutional economics, demography, social modernization, adaptation, and social market economy, are used instrumentally in this work.The information is based on analytical materials and official statistical data of institutions and departments of the Russian Federation, international economic organizations, expert assessments and periodical press data. The research is based on the socio-economic processes of the last decade in the Krasnodar territory, where frightening indicators of natural population growth have been recorded in recent years.Results. Generalizations and conclusions are important for the development of the economic program to overcome the socio-economic crisis, economic policy, and the choice of priority directions for the development of national and regional economy. The results obtained can serve as a further development of research on the use of an institutional approach to the analysis of economic transformations and problems of state regulation of the social sphere.Conclusions. The study analyzes the demographic state of the Krasnodar territory and lists the main weaknesses and reasons for the current demographic policy of the region. The study reveals the dependence of the consolidated budget of the region on the gross regional product and the average annual population, and provides recommendations for preserving and increasing the population of the Krasnodar territory.

The purpose of the article is to justify the role of the fiscal strategy in ensuring macroeconomic stability and accelerating the pace of economic growth, disclose and substantiate its key objectives in the developed and transformational economies. The comparative and factor method allowed revealing the essence and role of the fiscal strategy as an instrument of economic growth, identifying peculiarities and substantiating approaches to the management of uncertainty of fiscal strategies, revealing the principles of the formation of the fiscal strategy and medium-term budget planning in Ukraine. Methodology. The substantiation of the role of the fiscal strategy in ensuring macroeconomic stability and accelerating the pace of economic growth, and definition of its key objectives are based on the generalization and systematization of the experience of countries with a developed and transformational economy. For this purpose, the analysis and evaluation of the fiscal policy were made, the peculiarities of the formation and implementation of fiscal strategies in the corresponding countries were determined. Results have shown that in developed countries, the GDP gap concept is used in order to use fiscal policy for countercyclical purposes. Budget sustainability is characterized by the ability of state and local government bodies to timely and fully finance budget expenditures and to support the share of budget deficits and public debt in the gross domestic product at an economically sound level. Budgetary stability is the constancy of budget architectonics in time. The essence of budget architectonics is the optimal ratio of budget, tax, social, monetary, and public debt components of the fiscal policy, which is a dynamic institutional process of its development and implementation in the relevant socio-economic conditions of the country’s development. At an appropriate level of budget stability, the level of fiscal burden on the economy does not increase. Fiscal equilibrium – consistency of budget revenues and expenditures. Practical implications. The benchmark of the fiscal strategy in terms of economic transformations should be to ensure macroeconomic stability and accelerate the pace of economic growth by increasing the soundness of budget architectonics. Value/originality. Strengthening the influence of endogenous and exogenous factors on the financial and economic environment of the state, and negative demographic tendencies on the development of society necessitate the development of a fiscal strategy as a dynamic self-organizing one with a fractal dimension and scale, the system of long-term financial and economic measures, goals, principles, directions, tasks that are implemented by public administration, in a multiaspect dimension: budget transformations, configurations of fiscal institutions, socio-economic transformations. The fractal dimension implies the formation of a system of long-term financial and economic measures, goals, principles, directions, tasks of the country’s fiscal policy based on the subsystems of the fiscal policy of regions with similar features, which will provide an opportunity to ensure consistency of actions of state authorities and local self-government bodies, constituents of the fiscal policy. The validity of the fiscal strategy determines the level of effectiveness of socio-economic transformations. In terms of economic transformations, budget architectonics, the institutional features of its formation are becoming increasingly difficult to assess in both developed and transformational economies.

Abstract This article examines the sedentarization of transhumants in northern Greece within the context of the political, legal, social, and economic transformation of the region that occurred throughout the nineteenth century. Based on a wide range of primary sources, this research conducts a chronological survey of the local actors, events, and institutions with reference to a broader political and economic context. It emphasizes that, in the first half of the century, a provincial-elite regime and imperial policies did not create substantial change in transhumance. In the 1860s, however, economic transformations at both imperial and global levels did accelerate change in the region's land and labour regimes. In response, regional landholders began to institute sedentarization, adopting various legal and economic means based on strategies including negotiation, persuasion, and compulsion.

The article is devoted to outstanding scientist Boris E. Kvasniuk, who in his research focused on a wide range of topical issues of economic growth, increased efficiency of the state regulation of the economy, made a significant contribution to the theory of economic growth, and scientifically substantiated the basic structural proportions of GDP to ensure a stable investment in Ukraine’s economic growth. The theoretical and methodological foundations of the formation of the national savings, their specifics for various institutional sectors of the economy, the impact of government policies on the level of consumer spending in GDP and gross capital accumulation were presented in his works at a high scientific level. Borys E. Kvasnyuk identified the reasons for the volatility of gross savings and the high dependence of the economy on external financing and external shocks in Ukraine. Long before the new crisis of 2009, he warned about the need for the state support of domestic producers until they improve their competitiveness to a level ensuring a balance in foreign trade in goods and foreign exchange stability. He also foresaw that subsequently the overseas income of Ukrainians would become a factor in balancing the current account of the balance of payments, while the revenues from foreign direct investment would be a factor in its deterioration and would increase the dependence of Ukraine’s economy on external factors. Kvasnyuk’s works remain relevant for new generations of researchers as they reveal the fundamental principles of economic development and the role of the state in supporting the macroeconomic equilibrium.

We study the tax-spend nexus for Russian regional budgets. Causal relationship running from taxing to spending is found, thus supporting the concept “tax and spend” suggested by M. Friedman. Next, elasticity of expenditure by revenue is estimated for a panel of 80 regional budgets basing on data for 2000—2017. Estimates are in the range of 0.72 to 0.78 (depending on the econometric technique), which exceeds elasticity for the federal budget more than twice. This evidences that fiscal policy at the sub-federal (as distinct from the federal) level has clear pro-cyclical nature. Besides, the largest sensitivity of expenditure to revenue shocks is found for the item “national economy”, implying marked adverse implications for economic growth. We suggest to mitigate this effect by modifying fiscal rules for sub-federal budgets. They are currently aimed primarily at enhancing fiscal discipline, with less emphasis on countercyclical policy, insulating economy from fiscal shocks.
