This article is dedicated to the analysis of Plato's work “The Republic” in the context of the genesis of project mentality  and project activity as the anthropological outcome that goes back to the early cultural states and primary personality-oriented ancient practices. The author shifts to the plane of historical-cultural retrospective of the origin of the phenomenon of project mentality with the objective vicissitudes of its genesis. An attempt is made to reflect on this process, examine and clarify certain moments associated with the prelude and dynamics of the development of project approach towards organizing modern reality. The author substantiates the original perspective on interpretation of Plato's “Republic” as the early typical example of proto-project mentality formed in the depths of ancient cultural practices. Project mentality is a promising vector of the existence of culture, the so-called matrix of personal fulfillment of a significant part of our contemporaries. The author believes that Plato's work “The Republic” should be recognized as one of the very first examples of proto-project due to the presence of a wide range of typological attributes of design. The conclusion is made that in accordance to most parameters, Plato's work “The Republic” falls under the concept of “project activity”, as it features majority of the aspects of sociocultural design.

Failure of public services has been a vividly debated topic in both theory and practice of public administration. Surprisingly, only a handful of scholarly papers have empirically examined the failure management practices and provided any useful tools and techniques for managing the failure. The aim of this paper is to explore the ways in which central government administration manages the failure and how it affects the quality of their services. The study collected 568 responses from the political appointees and career civil servants across a wide range of ministries and central government agencies in the Republic of Serbia. The results indicate that the analysis of failure plays a pivotal role in the learning process and ultimately leads to the improvement of public service quality.

120Th Anniversary

The 8th Readings devoted to the memory of Ekaterina Galkina (so called “Galkina readings”), a traditional enlarged meeting of the Mire Science Panel of the Russian Botanical Society (RBS), took place on February 2–3, 2017, at the V. L. Komarov Botanical Institute of the Russian Academy of Science. It was dedicated to World Wetlands Day, the 120th anniversary of E. A. Galkina, the 80th anniversary of her publication “Airplane Use in Plant Geography Studies”, and 80th anniversary of remote sensing studies of peatlands in Russia. The tradition to name the enlarged meetings of the RBS Mire Science Panel held in early February and dedicated to World Wetlands Day (February 2) as “Galkina Readings” began in 2007 with a celebration of the 110th anniversary of Ekaterina Alekseyevna Galkina. The number of meeting participants and talks have been growing ever since, with the most spectacular changes having occurred in the last two years. In 2017, the meeting enjoyed 63 representatives of 23 organizations, who delivered 36 talks. The abstracts of all talks, including four that were not presented due to the absence of the speakers, were published in the Proceedings. It was the first meeting where participants represented such a wide range of Russian regions, from Kaliningrad to Magadan. A list of research issues discussed at the meeting grew as well, with soil science and entomology having complemented traditional plant geography, hydrology, peat science, and bryology. For the first time, representatives of five strict nature reserves and national parks took part in the meeting. Following this trend, the format of “Galkina Readings” should be changed to a three-day conference instead of a two-day meeting. As soon as next year, international colleagues will be invited to participate in the meeting.

Aim. The presented study aims to improve the theoretical and methodological approach to assessment and to develop practical recommendations for improving the performance of metal trading enterprises.Tasks. Based on a study of the essence of the concept of “performance” and assessment models, the authors develop methodological provisions for assessing the performance of enterprises; investigate industry-specific features and factors affecting the performance level of metal trading enterprises; develop a comprehensive methodology for assessing the performance level of enterprises in the metal trading industry; test the developed methodology on metal trading enterprises in the Republic of Crimea; identify potential directions for improving the performance of the analyzed group of enterprises.Methods. This study uses a wide range of general scientific methods: induction and deduction, abstraction, analysis and synthesis, modeling, systematization of theoretical and practical material. Analytical, graphical, and statistical methods and the method of comparative economic analysis are applied. The research methodology is based on the key provisions of the theory and practice of financial and economic analysis of enterprise activity.Results. The problem of ensuring the performance of an enterprise essentially comes down to increasing economic results per cost unit. At the same time, among the existing assessment models, the management model provides the most comprehensive accounting of various aspects of operation. The main aspects for assessing the performance of enterprises include the application of a dialectical approach, compliance with certain principles, and the sequence of implemented actions. The conducted analysis of factors affecting the performance level of metal trading enterprises reveals the most negative factors: decreasing purchasing power, increasing tax burden, non-market competition, and underdeveloped industrial infrastructure. This study presents a comprehensive methodology for assessing the performance level of metal trading enterprises, the idea of which goes back to the “performance pyramid” model for analyzing and evaluating operating results developed by K. McNair and is supplemented with a system of key indicators. The proposed methodology is tested on actual enterprises in the Republic of Crimea, and recommendations for increasing the achieved level of performance are formulated.Conclusions. The developed assessment methodology is based on the idea of performance as a pyramid, the volume of which reflects the level of performance; the sides of the base are key indicators showing the state of various aspects of the enterprise’s operation; the base area is the current potential of the enterprise formed by its activities; the pyramid’s height is the position of the enterprise in the market. The integrated index calculated based on the methodology makes it possible to assess the current performance level of the enterprise in accordance with the conventional assessment scale and to develop a list of the most significant measures for improving it.

The article examines the state and prospects for the development of relations between Kazakhstan and Great Britain. Before British Brexit, cooperation between the two countries was carried out both on a bilateral and multilateral basis. At present, the interaction of the two independent states has reached a high level and is characterized by a wide range of relations in various fields. The priority sectors are energy, exploration and production of minerals, transport and communications, as well as the financial and banking sector. It is indicated that the UK is an important trading partner of the Republic of Kazakhstan and one of the largest investors. In recent years, cooperation in the field of health care, science and culture has become very significant. It was emphasized that consulting and financial services occupy a special place in the relations between the two countries. Thus, the work of the Astana International Financial Center is based on English law and the British have been invited as arbitrators. Some lull arose in connection with the coronavirus pandemic, however, the parties agreed to further continue and deepen cooperation in all areas
