Japan is known around the world for its «economic miracle», since the end of the XX century began to experience an economic crisis, which is even more intense at the present time. Japan is one of the countries that has the highest public debt relative to GDP. Nevertheless, it continues to be one of the most economically developed countries in the world. In addition, there have recently been drastic changes in the field of defense: the transformation of the national defense Department into a full-fledged Ministry, an increase in the budget allocated to defense, etc. The issue of constitutional reform (amendments to article 9) is on the agenda. The practical majority of reforms take place under the rule of the current Prime Minister, Shinzo Abe. The purpose of the article is to study and evaluate the mutual influence of economic growth and the strengthening of Japan’s military power

Critical Discourse Analysis views language in use as a kind of social practice, it is often applied to political language (discourse— text, talk, and/or visual), including public speeches. This paper critically analyzes the speech by the Prime Minister of Pakistan, delivered at the United Nations General Assembly (UNGA) on September 28, 2019. The study uses Fairclough's Three-Dimensional Model, to reflect upon "Us" and "Them" in the context of four major themes of the speech: climate change, money laundering, Islamophobia, and Kashmir. The study uses a mixed-method approach for a thorough review of the speech and discusses power within the discourse and power behind discourse. The findings reveal how language reflects the ideology of the political leaders, and how discourse can form and be formed by social practices. The Prime Minister used language effectively to present the ideological dichotomies between "Us" and "Them" in the context of developing countries-developed countries (powerful politically and economically), Muslims - anti-Muslims, and Pakistan/Kashmir - India. He urged the world-leaders at UNGA's highest political forum, after drawing the line of demarcation, to take steps to resolve the differences to achieve harmony and peace in the world. This research enables the common public of Pakistan to understand their leader in terms of the concept of power by comprehending the profounder meaning that language conveys.

The history of civil–military relations in Thailand has paralleled the gradual post-1980 primacy of monarchical power over the country. Until 1932, the monarchy ruled absolute across Siam (Thailand). From 1932 until 1980, the military held more clout than the monarchy (though the palace slowly increased its influence after 1957). Since 1980, monarchy and military have dominated the country with the military as junior partner. The two form a khakistocracy: the military’s uniform color of khaki combined with the aristocracy (monarchy). Though there have been brief instances of elected civilian governments, all were overthrown by the military. In fact, Thailand likely holds the record for the highest number of military putsches in the world. Since the death of King Bhumipol Adulyadej in 2016, the clout of the armed forces has become more centralized under his successor and son King Maha Vajiralongkorn. At the same time, post-2019 Prime Minister (and post-2014 junta leader) General Prayuth Chanocha has sought to entrench military power across Thailand. As a result, in 2021, the monarchy and military continue to enhance authoritarian rule as a khakistocracy camouflaged behind the guise of a charade form of democracy. Civil–military relations represent exclusively a partnership between the monarch and the armed forces.

Introduction. An increase in public debt may have a negative, neutral or positive impact on the country's economic development. A big loan does not mean big growth; it all depends on how the public money is spent. The same amount of money spent by governments from dif­ferent countries has a different meaning for domestic development and the dynamics of public debt. The reasons are differences in the size of GDP, the structure of government borrowings, the shadow economy. Purpose. The objective of this paper is to deepen the theoretical backgrounds and applied aspects of influence of the public debt on the economic development of the country. Methods. In the research process, a set of research methods and approaches were used: systemic, structural-functional, comparisons and others. Results. The problem of a high level of public debt is acute in many countries throughout the world, including Ukraine. Nobody can say for sure whether a high public debt holds back the country's economic development. Theoretically, economically weaker countries, having regard to the financial constraints and economic needs, should have a higher level of public debt in relation to GDP than countries with high levels of development. However, comparing the data on the ratio of public debt and GDP in the EU, it can be noted the following: the higher indicators in the more developed countries of the EU. The latter, in fact, are the largest lenders of the world economy and at the same time have the largest volumes of the public debt both in absolute terms and in relation to GDP. As a result of the unsatisfactory financial state of the public sector, household saving goes to the repayment of the higher-level commitments, and not for the financing of the development of companies. This is especially problematic if we look at the situation of future generations – they will have less capital at their disposal. Public debt is a reduction in future revenues; hence, it is an intergenerational problem. Conclusions. It is possible to make proposals that will have a significant impact on the growth of the economy and the reduction of the public debt: – internal borrowing but not the external loans are economically justified. In this case, the debts do not increase the money base and the turnover of funds is carried out within the state; – entrepreneurship requires the systematic and consistent support that will stimulate the economic development, which needs stable business conditions in the long run.


The Indian population crossed 138 Crore numbers and the second-most populous nation in the world. Recent changes in job structure show that Indian labor is transitioning from the farming sector to the industry-and-services industries. India is unique globally, thanks to the demographic dividend Compared to developed countries with the aging population. India's 65 percent workforce is under the age of 35, and by 2025 70 percent of the country would be working-age. A large population, if educated, qualified, and productive, will effectively escalate the value of the demographic dividend and leading to sustainable development. Prime Minister Narendra Modi has unveiled a training program for India on July 2015 and program aims to train About forty lakh trainees in India with various cognoscenti by 2022. This is a revolutionary program aimed at offering realistic, industry-germane, and skills-based training to young people for the last four years. It is crucial to examine the role and influence of Pradhan Mantri Kaushal Vikas Yojana(PMKVY) at the outset and How it will help people coalesce these skills and become employed. The data of the Indore region obtained from the official site is analyzed with the help of python and shows weather PMKVY buttresses the Indian economy or not through tests performed. By linear regression future expectancy of the program is predicted.

The degree of research into the relationship between the concepts of «globalization» and «branding» has been traced. The correctness of the terminology used by domestic researchers in the concept of branding is analyzed. The list of features that determine the similarity of the analyzed processes is determined. It is substantiated that the impact of branding on economic development is a process that needs to be managed. Branding and globalization have been found to affect the socio-economic development of the country. The object of the research is theoretical and methodological principles of branding in the context of globalization, which expands the horizons of the concept of brand-oriented development of national economy. The subject of research is the nature of the mutual influence of globalization and branding processes. The study of globalization, the conditions and factors contributing to its development, the directions of its impact, and the results of this impact is interdisciplinary and requires a fundamental study. The purpose of this paper is to justify the existence of mutual influence of globalization and branding, to determine its characteristics. To achieve the goal, the following were used methods: system-parametric approach - to scientific knowledge of branding and globalization, which allowed to reveal certain perspectives of these processes; сomparative analysis on globalization and branding, which helped to identify the directions and nature of the counter impact; management approach to the brand management process. The practical implications of the results are the ability to use them to manage branding development in Ukraine, which will have positive consequences for the country's integration into the global economic and civilizational space. Conclusions. The formation of a brand-oriented global economy is an evolutionary process that requires management to increase its effectiveness. The impact of globalization on the development of branding and the promotion of the objects of its transformation is brought about by qualitative changes in the structure of world trade in goods and services, as well as by positive dynamics of the value of national brands, first of all, in the developed countries of the world, whose strategy is obviously brand-oriented. Branding, in turn, dramatically amplifies the scale and effects of globalization, both economic and political, cultural, social processes on the planet, as the development of brands of goods and services implies maximization of advancement in the global market for goods and services provided by technical, technological, the creative, marketing benefits of relevant producers. National brands of countries around the world have an undeniable influence on the process of globalization, contributing to investment in countries, innovations, highly qualified staff and a large number of tourists, which proves to be a brand – an effective tool for globalization. Globalization and branding are mutually influencing, interdependent and reinforcing each other.

The scientific novelty of the article is a developed methodology of the world countries' classification regarding the quality of economic security management and the possibility to develop an exclusive set of actions directed towards optimization of such management. It has been proved using an example of Ukraine. The research methodology is based on systematic and historical approaches to the disclosure and resolution of the issues of economic security management in economically developed countries of Europe and European countries that develop their own economic systems, taking into account the processes of globalization and ensuring their sustainable development. In this case, the historical approach is based on the study undertaken during a certain period of time (2012-2018), and the systematic approach is aimed at the assumption of connection and mutual influence of economic security of different European countries, which operates as a single system. To conduct the research data and empiric analysis of seventeen countries of Western (Germany, France, Great Britain, Spain, Italy), Eastern (the Russian Federation, Latvia, Lithuania, and Estonia), and Central Europe (the Czech Republic, Bulgaria, Hungary, Poland, Slovakia, Romania, and Ukraine) in 2016 – 2018 have been taken and analyzed. Policy considerations: -economic security is the main element of the countries’ national security provision under globalization and their stable development; - the required level of economic security can be reached only within management based on a set of key determinants; - economic security management varies significantly in different world countries in conditions of their operation as parts of the world economic system; - some world countries, which are developing their own economic systems, for example Ukraine, have special problems in economic security management at the national level; and they need development and implementation of exclusive optimization sets of such state institutes’ management activities.

Almost 50 per cent of the world population is constituted by the women and they have been making substantial contribution to socio-economic development. But, unfortunately their tremendous contribution remains unrecognized and unnoticed in most of the developing and least developed countries causing the problem of poverty among them. Empowering women has become the key element in the development of an economy. With women moving forward, the family moves, the village moves and the nation moves. Hence, improving the status of women by way of their economic empowerment is highly called for. Entrepreneurship is a key tool for the economic empowerment of women around the world for alleviating poverty. Entrepreneurship is now widely recognized as a tool of economic development in India also. In this paper I have tried to discuss the reasons and role of Women Entrepreneurship with the help of Push and Pull factors. In the last I have also discussed the problems and the road map of Women Entrepreneurs development in India.

The report by the UNCTAD Secretariat, submitted to the third session of the United Nations Conference on Trade and Development held in Santiago (Chile) in April 1972, deals with the restrictive business practices of the multinational corporations with special reference to the export interests of the developing countries. Since the world war, there has been a tremendous growth in the size and activities of many international firms. They have grown from the national corporation to the multidivisional corporation and now to the multinational corporation. With each step they acquired greater financial power, better technology and know-how and more complex administrative structures. They have subsidiaries and branches all over the world. In the course of the sixties they became one of the dominant factors in determining the pattern of world trade. At the same time, their increasingly restrictive business practices, which tended to adversely affect world trade and the export interest of less developed countries, attracted the attention of the governments both in developed and less developed countries and serious concern was shown at the international level. It is against this background that the UNCTAD undertook the study on the question of restrictive business practices.
