The article focuses on specifics of the development of the theory of economic security of the state in Ukraine. Firstly, the ecosestate as a discipline in Ukraine is characterized by a high level of fragmentation and disintegration. Indeed, a lot of scientific schools have emerged and are actively developing in the country, each of which has a well-developed methodological base of research and its own system of scientific principles and values. On the one hand, this is its significant advantage, because the scientific knowledge has been upgraded all the time that increases their practical value. On the other hand, existing a lot of absolutely different concepts results in methodological chaos in this discipline. The author presented his own approach to the systematization a large number of Ukrainian scientists’ concepts in order to sort various scientific schools out. This approach is based on the principle of historicism, according to which each concept is valid in the relevant historical period of Ukraine, which is characterized by particular conditions and circumstances. Three periods were identified and every period has been studied scrupulously to find out main factors that cause very specific trends in economic security of the state in Ukraine. Secondly, ecosestate is characterized by a high pace of evolution in Ukraine. The author explains, that is a very important sign of its validity. Ukrainian scientific community of ecosestate has to deal with rapid dynamic of transformation of Ukrainian state, as well as conditions in which it operates. It naturally requires constant verification of scientific knowledge in terms of their compliance with new realities. Thirdly, unlike most countries, where ecosestate is actively developing, Ukraine has its own specific context – a hybrid conflict with another subject of international relations, which continues to be aggressive towards the state. This naturally transforms not only Ukrainian reality, but also Ukrainian scientific community. Based on the considerations outlined in the article the author states, that domestic scientific community has a unique experience, so the methodological achievements of Ukrainian experts in certain aspects more advanced than ones of scientific schools in other countries.

The author states, that the theory of economic security of the state as a scientific discipline today is at the beginning of its new stage of development. A marked surge of interest in this topic is expected in the nearest future, that will intensify research activity in this scientific field. To meet these expectations scientific community needs a strong methodological platform, which should be based on universal and coherent categorical apparatus. However, a set of essential methodological problems may deteriorate a rise of the economic security of the state. One of the key problems is a significant number of scientific schools within the discipline. Most of them has developed their own categorical-conceptual apparatus. The author draws attention, that terminological chaos in the theory of economic security of the state as one of a serious problem for its institutionalization and development as an independent scientific discipline. It makes impossible to create a common methodological framework for discipline and undermines constructive scientific discussion between representatives of different scientific schools in this field. The huge differences between scientific schools are observed already at the stage of defining the basic definition of this scientific discipline - “economic security of the state”. A plenty of various approaches can be identified withing this scientific community. The differences between defining concept of “economic security of the state” are very deep indeed. This is a significant obstacle to create a common platform for numerous groups of scientists, who are working on various aspects of this topic. To resolve this problem and find common solution the author has analysed a majority of approaches of various scientific schools and individual scientists regarding the definition of the concept of “economic security of the state”. Their advantages and disadvantages have been identified. Based on knowledge obtained the author has proposed his own definition. According to it, “economic security of the state” should be treated as a state of the economy, that is intentionally and purposefully adjusted by public authorities in order to ensures the state's resilience to external and internal systemic threats and aggressive actions undertaken by other states. The author has justified the practicability of using this definition in the scientific research as well as policy-making.

В статье излагается содержание двух базовых концепций неклассической философии и методологии науки: конвенционалистской и консенсуалистской теории природы научного знания и научной истины. Каждая из них является альтернативой двум основным парадигмам классической философии и методологии науки: эмпиризму (позитивизму) и рационализму. С точки зрения конвенционализма научное знание не есть ни описание чистого опыта, ни его обобщение. Но оно не является также и результатом некой априорной интуиции и чистого разума. Согласно конвенционализму научное знание - это система доказательной информации, исходные принципы которой имеют характер условных, конвенциональных истин. Отсюда следует, что любая истина в науке не категорична, а условна и имеет форму «если, то». Консенсуалистская концепция природы научного знания возникла в философии науки второй половины XX в. Она была, с одной стороны, обобщением конвенционализма, а с другой - его отрицанием. Если в конвенционализме основным субъектом научного познания является отдельный ученый, то в консенсуалистской эпистемологии таким субъектом является социальный субъект - научное сообщество. Научное познание имеет принципиально коллективный характер как в плане его получения в силу разделения научного труда, так и в плане его легитимации и оценки. Последние операции всегда являются результатом консенсуса научного сообщества. The article examines the content of two basic conceptions of non-classical philosophy and methodology of science: the conventionalist and consensual theory of the nature of scientific knowledge. Each of them is an alternative to the two main paradigms of classical philosophy and the methodology of science: empiricism (positivism) and rationalism. From the point of view of conventionalism, scientific knowledge is neither a description of pure experience nor a generalization of it. But it is also not the result of some a priori intuition and pure reason. According to conventionalism, scientific knowledge is a system of evidence-based information, the initial principles of which have the character of conditional, conventional truths. It follows that any truth in science is not categorical, but conditional and has the form «if, then». The consensual concept of the nature of scientific knowledge emerged in the philosophy of science of the second half of the twentieth century. It was, on the one hand, a generalization of conventionalism; on the other, a negation of it. If in conventionalism the main subject of scientific knowledge is an individual scientist, then in consensual epistemology such a subject is a social subject - the scientific community. Scientific knowledge has a fundamentally collective character, both in terms of its acquisition by virtue of the division of scientific work, and in terms of its legitimization and evaluation. The latest operations are always the result of a consensus of the scientific community.

The Impact

The article considers the approaches to the interpretation of the category "shadow economy", which causes a variety of approaches to assessing the impact of the shadow economy on the socio-economic development of Ukraine. The spread of the pandemic and the complication of economic conditions, formed as a result of the introduction of forced restrictive measures, have led to the growth of the shadow economy in Ukraine. The index of shadowing of the economic sphere in relation to the inflation index and the level of the state budget deficit has been studied. The factors that led to the shadowing of the economy and caused the growth of the share of the shadow sector in the economy of Ukraine are highlighted. The main components of shadow employment are identified. Business entities operating in the shadow sector have significantly more competitive advantages and much higher efficiency than legally operating businesses. As a result, such enterprises are an obstacle to the flow of funds to the budgets of all levels of the country, and as a consequence, have a negative impact on socio-economic development in general. In recent years, state budget expenditures have been growing too slowly, which indicates a high level of shadowing of the economy in conditions of high inflation and, consequently, negatively affects the socio-economic security of society. Budget expenditures are closely linked to public policy, which allows the state to curb the level of economic shadowing through measures to reform relevant areas. It is investigated that the State budget expenditures grow too slowly, which indicates a high level of shadowing of the economy in conditions of high inflation. The paper substantiates the reasons for the growth of the shadow economy and identifies the main measures to reduce shadow employment, the manifestations of which are the deformation of social and economic institutions of the state. The de-shadowing of the economy provides citizens with the right to social protection, in the form of social guarantees in case of unemployment, temporary incapacity for work, accidents or occupational diseases during official work, pensions, etc.

Economic security is an integral part of national security. As history shows, a strong economy is a prerequisite for the power of the state, its place and role in the world community. From the second half of the twentieth century economic development issues have become an integral part of the national security ideas of both the scientific community and the governments of most countries. While in some countries the emphasis is primarily on the economic power and economic sovereignty of the state, in others – on the issues related to «energy», «technological», «food» security or protection of the state from global and regional economic cataclysms, or the danger of «economic espionage».   Economic security is the foundation of national security and at the same time it is closely interconnected with its other components. Also it is the basis for ensuring its subspecies such as military, political, environmental, information and others.  The need to ensure economic security at the macro level is growing in connection with the development of globalization and integration processes in the second half of the twentieth century. Globalization and economic integration, on the one hand, threaten economic sovereignty and, on the other, create new opportunities for economic growth. In the context of economic globalization and regional integration, it is extremely important to reveal the essence of ensuring the economic security of the state. To achieve the goal of studying the economic security of the modern state, it is necessary to consider theoretical and methodological approaches to ensuring economic security.

Economic security is an important system-forming element of the country of laws and the well-being of the population. The negative phenomenon of crime has a significant impact on all processes taking place in the socioeconomic sphere. The purpose of the study is to determine the degree of influence of criminal activity in the economic sphere of society on the state of economic security of the Russian Federation and the southern regions of the country in particular. The study is devoted to the search of ways to prevent crimes in the economic sphere, as well as ways to improve the investigation methodology. The methodological basis of the study is presented by the methods of formal logic (analysis, synthesis and analogy), general scientific (comparison), and specific methods of cognition (statistical method, typology method). As a result of the structural analysis of the state of economic and corruption crime in the Russian Federation and Krasnodar Krai in particular, the specific vectors of its influence on the living standards of the population and accordingly on the economic situation in the country have been determined. The trend in recent years, on the one hand, is characterized by positive dynamics in the form of a decrease in the total number of committed crimes. On the other hand, the proportion of economic and corruption crimes in the structure of the total number of officially registered crimes in Russia is characterized by growth. In addition, the damage caused by crime types under analysis also grows annually. This negative trend of illegal acts in the economic sphere damages the entire organizational and managerial activity of the government and negatively affects the state of national business. On the basis of the results of the study, specific measures which prevent economic and corruption crimes are proposed, the use of which will help to achieve the necessary level of economic security of Russia as a country with a well-developed infrastructure and an attractive socio-economic climate. Besides, the use of these measures will contribute to the normal functioning of the government machine and achievement of a high level and standard of living of the population.

The purpose of the article is to trace the connection between the change in the religious policy of the state and the anti-clerical protests of the 2016-2020s. Statements against Church restitution and the construction of churches have caused extensive discussion, which has given rise to a number of contradictory, sometimes mutually exclusive interpretations. According to the author, the reason for these protests was not private reasons, but deeper reasons related to the religious policy of the state. The author pays special attention to changes in religious legislation, which led to increased control over the private life of citizens and infringement of the right to freedom of ideological choice. The article points out that the religious issue has divided Russian society: the ruling class on the one hand, and a significant part of citizens on the other, have become increasingly different in understanding the place and role of religion in the life of the country. According to the author, the protests in Yekaterinburg, St. Petersburg, and Moscow were special cases of numerous manifestations of politicization of society and growing dissatisfaction with the state of state-confessional relations in modern Russia. The author concludes that the degree of conflict, the high level of solidarity actions, a diverse and resonant series of events, as well as the level of ideological discussion allow us to classify these events as political and plebiscite.

The need to improve public administration of import dependency was characterized (in the example of Ukraine) and the signs of its influence and interconnection with ensuring the state’s economic security are characterized. The methodological sequence of import dependency evaluation is substantiated. Using Hotelling’s method of transformation (the method of principal components), the multiplicative form is presented and the integral index of import dependency of the country’s economy is calculated. Harrington’s interval scale is used to summarize the results of the integral evaluation of import dependency. The results of the evaluation have confirmed the high level of import dependency of the Ukrainian economy and clear tendencies for its strengthening, which is critically threatening to the country’s economic security. Using the tool of multivariate dynamic regression modeling, a statistically significant correlation between the level of import dependency and the country’s economic security is established. The economic and mathematical descriptive model of state management of the state’s economic security is formed, which is embedded in a methodical approach to strategizing the state policy of import substitution. The purpose of the state management of import substitution, the parameters of ensuring the country’s economic security agreed with it, the strategic priorities of the state policy of import substitution and the indicators of their implementation are determined.

Regional social policy often acts as the activity of the subject in the person of federal authorities and public organizations. The main goal of such a policy is to achieve equal living conditions, developed infrastructure and social structures of the region. And the general coordination of state, regional and local interests is actually implemented with great difficulty and is very often replaced by centralized management. Since regions and subjects become targeted objects of federal authorities, regions are not always able to realize their own interests. To avoid this situation, the regions need to establish their independence in solving social problems. Currently, the social and economic development of the state directly depends on the level of development of the regions. The concept of "economic security" and "social security" are closely related to each other, since the economic security of both the country and the regions mainly consists of socio-economic indicators. In other words, the economic security of the state and its subjects depends on the level of their social security. As a result of the conducted research, threats to the economic (including social) security of the region were identified. The assessment of the level of social security of the regions that are part of the Central Black Earth Economic Region was carried out using the methodology of Gaifullin A. Yu.and Gaifullina M.M. (Institute of Socio-Economic Research), which showed a fairly high level of social security of the object under study – the Voronezh Region. Determined the effectiveness of regional social policy and the ways and measures to improve the social policy of the region, in particular, it is recommended to pay attention to demographic component of the social security, living standards of the population, education and culture, and strengthen the rule of law.

Emergence in mountain and foothill territories of the North Caucasus of mud streams in the defining degree is connected with harmful effects of mountain water currents. Therefore, safety of the population, objects of economy and melioration of natural landscapes by creation of protective constructions is one of important and current problems here. Reliability and operability of the specified constructions considerably depends on completeness and reliability of initial hydrogeophysical characteristics of catchment basins of the rivers that causes the high level of requirements to their validity. However, in the last decade a number of works on waterways of the North Caucasus does not conform to such requirements. The lack of due criticism from scientific community of such works promotes their increasing distribution therefore, in many cases, they can become the main reason for incorrect estimates of the developed seleopasnost of the territory, creation of irrational and unreliable protective constructions that conducts to considerable economic expenses of the state, quite often, with tragic consequences. The conclusion is drawn on unfitness of such works both for theoretical researches, and for practical use. Separate positive examples of successful realization of antitorrential actions (development of a selevedeniye), including on the most important Olympic venues of «Sochi–2014» on Krasnaya Polyana are given.
