National Biography

The purpose of the article is to present the process of formation of a biographical resource, to depict the current state of its updated version - the electronic Ukrainian National Biographical Archive (UNBA) to analyze the changes that occurred during 2000-2020 in the formation of the biographical array of the database (DB) "Personalities" - a fundamental component of the electronic UNBA. The methodology consists of a combination of general scientific methods of analysis of theoretical material and statistical and comparative methods of analysis of specific empirical data, their systematization, and generalization. The scientific novelty of the study is characterized by obtaining unique information about the dynamics of the distribution of UNBA personnel - important figures of Ukrainian culture - by thematic headings, chronological periods, gender distribution. Conclusions. Formed by UNBA, today is the largest national electronic biographical resource. The emergence of modern sources in Ukraine, which open to the reader new, undeservedly forgotten, silent for various reasons, contributes to a large-scale change in the volume of biographical resources. Qualitative processing of these sources significantly multiplies the UNBA register, significantly increases its informative aspect. The analysis showed the versatility of the presented information on its thematic, chronological, gender distribution. In addition, it identified problems that should be taken into account when further filling the resource, in particular the significant uneven distribution of personnel by domain and article, incomplete chronological information about births, deaths, and burials, insufficient attention to biographical sources before the XIX century.

Every year, the vast majority of countries switch to an online environment. This is especially true for online stores. The subject of this study is the system of consumer protection upon buying goods in online stores and its effectiveness. The purpose is to analyse the state of development of e-commerce in Ukraine and the system of consumer protection upon purchasing goods in online stores. The following general scientific methods were used: classification and theoretical generalisation – to study the theoretical foundations of e-commerce; statistical analysis – to analyse the current state of e-commerce in Ukraine and the consumer protection system. The following results were obtained: based on the analysis of the provisions of current legislation and the experience of foreign countries describing the development of the e-commerce market in Ukraine and the world, the main trends that have developed have been identified, the positive and negative aspects of e-commerce have been identified, as well as the effectiveness of the consumer protection system upon purchasing goods in online stores. It was concluded that the “e-commerce” industry is developing very dynamically. Consumer protection upon purchasing goods through online stores is carried out as with a regular purchase and sale, but it has a number of specific features. To attract potential customers and build their trust, online stores try to post as much information about their products and services as possible on their official websites, including customer reviews. This indicates that the sellers themselves are interested in resolving disputes as soon as possible and preserving their reputation. Taking this into account, it is the improvement of the consumer literacy of citizens, the ability to fully exercise their rights, and to protect their interests in case of certain contradictions that is one of the ways to solve the existing problems

In The Beginning

The purpose of this article is to study the methods for manufacturing, wearing and ways of use of the Bashkir chest decorations in the end of the 20th — beginning of the 21st c. The research area includes the Republic of Bashkortostan and neighboring regions where the Bashkirs live. Information for neighboring regions was collected using the Internet and social networks: VKontakte, Instagram, YouTube. The chronological framework of the study covers the end of the 20th — beginning of the 21st c., that is the time of a renaissance of traditions and the growth of interest in them. Field materials collected by the author during the expeditions in 2010–2019 to different districts of the Republic of Bashkortostan, archival materials, museum collections of Ufa and Internet resources where old and modern photos with Bashkir chest decorations are posted became the source base of the study. The article uses general scientific methods: comparative-historical, and the method of scientific description and analysis. During the collection of field materials, we relied on ethnographic methods, such as in-depth interviews, observation, and photo fixation. To study the current state of tradition, monitoring of social networks was used. Different types of female bibs used to be popular among Bashkirs — selter, sakal, hakal, yaga, muynsa, almaizy and others. They were very highly valued and used as essential part of the bride dowry. Chest decorations made of silver coins and real corals were very expensive. Until the end of the 19th — beginning of the 20th c., chest decoration retained its ethnic, social, and sacred functions. In the beginning of the 20th c., the traditional culture was undergoing a difficult period. During the hunger years of the 1920s, the period of the creation of collective farms, many Bashkirs were forced to surrender their jewelry for nothing. In the postwar years, very few people still had their authentic national decorations. In the end of the 20th — beginning of 21st c., on the wave of mobilization of ethnic identity and revival of interest in traditions, the bib as an ethnic marker became popular again. It has been revealed that there are five basic trends of manufacturing of the Bashkir bibs: from historical reconstructions to highly stylized pieces, from everyday to festive. Nowadays they are worn both for beauty and designating the ethnic identity, traditions, culture, demonstration of national Bashkir ownership. The initial spiritual and guarding function of chest decorations has now been lost.

Purpose. The purpose of the study is to formulate a proposal to improve the technology of planning the supply of goods as part of the financial planning of import operations of PE "Art-Energo" in accordance with the problems identified during the analysis of the enterprise. Among the objectives of the study are: - consideration of the current state and features of the functioning of the system of financial planning of import operations at the enterprise during the analysis of its activities; - identification of the most urgent problem that arises in the supply of goods within the financial planning of import operations of the enterprise; - formation of a proposal to solve the identified problem of financial planning of import operations and justification of its feasibility. Design/methodology/approach. To achieve the goals, special and general scientific methods were used, including: graphic method was used to visualize the cycle of financial planning of imports of PE "Art-Energo"; expert method was used to determine the weight of the criteria for evaluating suppliers in the system of financial planning of import operations of PE "Art-Energo"; comparison was used to justify the most favorable terms of cooperation and to select the best contractors; systematization was used for calculations of liquidity indicators; generalization was used to develop recommendations for working with partners by category in the system of financial planning of import operations of PE "Art-Energo". Findings. In the article is shown that the conditions of cooperation with foreign counterparties directly affect not only the competitiveness of the enterprise, but also the financial performance of its activities. It was found that non-parity terms of cooperation with suppliers can be one of the causes of cash gaps, which in turn leads to the inability of the company to repay its obligations on time and, consequently, to insolvency. It is established that the maneuverability of working capital is significantly reduced with the full advance of products, which is the main condition for cooperation of suppliers with PE "Art-Energo", so there is a need to transform the payment system. In order to increase the efficiency of the technology of planning the supply of goods as part of the financial planning of import operations, it is proposed to introduce a system of supplier evaluation in the activities of the enterprise. The hypothesis of a positive relationship between the introduction of supplier evaluation system as a tool of improvement the financial planning of import operations of PE "Art-Energo" and the growth of the company's ability to pay current liabilities, including timely payments on accounts payable due to operating cash flow is proven. Practical implications. The introduction of a supplier evaluation system based on the evaluation of estimation according to the relevant criteria and the classification of partners by category will help ensure transparency of the contractor selection mechanism, eliminating subjective preferences, thereby minimizing the impact of the human factor. That is why such a way to improve the technology of planning the supply of goods can find practical application not only in the case of PE "Art-Energo", but also for any other trading company. Originality/value. In the article, the authors suggest the use of a supplier evaluation system based on the results of the audit and the assignment of the rating to the contractors, that allow to identify their weaknesses and clearly formulate the tasks that need to be solved by the supplier in order to effectively cooperate with PE "Art-Energo". Eliminating the actual shortcomings of the supply system and the introduction of supplier evaluation system helps the company to reduce costs, risks, increase the quality of goods and ensure the stability of work.

The aim of the article is to offer a theoretical overview of the relevance of the adaptive model in translation from psycholinguistic perspective. Based on psycholinguistic approach to defining the notions of adequacy/equivalency in translation the research suggests theoretically and methodologically justified reasons for applying the translational adaptation to culture-bound texts. The comprehensive analysis of the “adaptation” as a notion presupposes the implementation of the hierarchy of the scientific methods of analysis among which the most relevant are: general scientific methods of analysis and synthesis of theoretical discussions on adaptation, text-typological structural/functional, psycholinguistic and translational methods of text analysis. An adaptive potential of a text is defined within the framework of intralinguistic and interlinguistic comparison of pragmatic texts, which grounds the adaptive translational models of pragmatic texts under analysis. The results of the research speak to the fact that from the psycholinguistic perspective the notion of an equivalent translation presupposes the transcoding of the content of a source text with its semantic, stylistic and functionally communicative information. On the other hand, the notion of an adequate translation is understood as the translational reproduction of the reaction which is caused by the source text on the audience taking into account text-typological, cultural, psychological stereotypes of the target audience. In conclusion one can state that the adequate variant of translation of pragmatic culture-bound text is possible under the conditions of its adaptation to the linguocultural stereotypes of the target audience. In other words, the common beam of the adequacy in translation is the target audience’s comprehension.

Purpose. The aim of the article is to research the theoretical and practical aspects of the current state and prospects of development and regulation of the agricultural land market in Ukraine. Methodology of research. The methodological basis of the study is the dialectical method of scientific knowledge. General scientific and special methods are used in the course of the research, namely deductive, abstract and logical – in the study of problems of the agricultural land market in Ukraine, in assessing the current state of its functioning. Findings. The importance of the Ukrainian land as the main national wealth of the Ukrainian people is proved. Aspects of functioning of the land market in Ukraine at the present stage are described. The risks of launching the land market in times of war and imperfect legislation are considered. The expediency of sale of land to legal entities and concentration of one natural person not more than 200 hectares is substantiated; if business needs more than 200 hectares of land, then it is worth creating cooperatives and more citizens or families will be able to make a profit from joint business. A special mechanism for taxation of agricultural land sales is proposed. The expediency of free sale of land in Ukraine till 2025 is proved. It is substantiated that a tax equivalent to at least five thousand euros per hectare will provide significant revenue to the budget, prevent large-scale speculation in the land market, ensure high value of land and make it possible to use it as the expensive collateral for the purchase of agricultural machinery. Originality. It is established that the free sale of agricultural land in Ukraine to legal entities and individuals is ineffective, and it is advisable to sell only to the state and local communities. It is proved that the increase in the value of agricultural land in Ukraine and the reduction of possible speculation on the land market will be positively influenced by the taxation of land sales operations. Practical value. The obtained results of the study, which are expressed in the conclusions and proposals, contribute to solving problems of ensuring the effective functioning of the agricultural land market in Ukraine.

Subject. We consider development prospects for agricultural organizations of different categories. Objectives. The aim is to conduct a multifaceted study of positive and negative aspects of the production activities of agricultural holdings and farms, assessed by their contribution to the economic and social development of Russia. Methods. We employ general scientific methods of research. Results. The paper emphasizes high competitive performance of agricultural holdings, which displace farms from the market. This is mainly due to the administrative support to large corporate structures by regional and federal governments. We show that in the event of redistribution of available public funds to agriculture and increased assistance for farmers, the latter will be at a much higher level of economic efficiency of production vs. the current level. At the same time, the main advantage of small farms over agroholdings, i.e. the predominance of their environmental preservation-style of economy, will remain. Conclusions. The growing economy of farms and their interest in higher output will assist in restoration of agricultural lands that are now abandoned. It is likely that in the future, farms will outpace agricultural holdings in their development and become leading large-scale producers of agricultural goods.

Aim. The presented study aims to assess the current state of the banking sector of the economy and its potential for the development of ESG banking and implementation of ESG standards.Tasks. The authors analyze the current level of ESG standards implementation and the banks’ readiness to further implement ESG standards.Methods. This study uses general scientific methods of cognition to analyze the problems and obstacles that arise during ESG standards implementation in banking practice.Results. The banking community’s participation in the funding of sustainable development projects is selective rather than overarching, with banks choosing individual banking products. Reports marginally trace their participation in lending to business projects related to the circular economy of various industries.Conclusions. The special place of the banking sector in the national economy and its interaction with the real sector of the economy offer great potential for the development of ESG standards, making it possible to introduce ESG technologies both in banking activities and in their active promotion to other sectors of the economy through customers, thereby accelerating the transition towards a circular economy in Russia. The strength of the Russian banking system has been tested in recent years, and it embraces the formation of new rules of economic behavior. By overcoming existing obstacles, banks will be able to switch to ESG standards in the coming years, thus becoming pioneers in doing business based on the principles of environmental, social, and managerial responsibility.
