Spatial sustainable development planning and providing is a very responsible process. During the process, many spatial development planning documents for specific different time periods on different planning levels are being developed. However, there are only slight differences between the spatial development planning in many European countries where few of them can notice more than the others. Latvia and England, two European Union countries, which had some significant changes in legislation regarding spatial development planning in 2011, were selected for the comparison. The research aims to evaluate similar and different aspects of spatial development planning in Latvia and England. To achieve the aim, the information on spatial development planning tendencies in both countries, legislation, development order of planning documents and other aspects. The result is a comparison of different and similar aspects of spatial development planning in Latvia and England.

Historical Periods

The topic of sustainable development has become increasingly central to the international community. In 2015, the UN approved the 2030 Agenda, an action plan aimed at pursuing sustainable development. The founding elements of the 2030 Agenda are the 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDG) that refer to different areas of development. The objective of this study is to determine the state of implementation of the SDGs in Italy and to understand to what extent the country will be able to reach European standards in 2030 under current policies. To this end, a quantitative analysis was carried out which, thanks to the use of official statistics and the FORECAST.ETS function, made it possible to identify the value that the indicators will have in 2030. In addition, the dynamic index methodology was applied to measure the degree of implementation of the SDGs between two different historical periods: 2018 and 2030. The analyses carried out shows that Italy needs to take urgent measures to meet its commitment to the 2030 Agenda. The study offers one of the first insights into the implementation of the 2030 Agenda as, in addition to analyzing the country’s performance, it examines the pursuit of the SDGs within the country itself. It is therefore believed that the results may be of interest to governments, experts, and academics.

Interregional Cooperation

Interregional cooperation is a complex system of interconnected processes, which has begun to develop for a very long time and in the last five years, and has become relevant. This fact is also confirmed by the fact that the Association Agreement between Ukraine and the European Union includes a norm on the comprehensive development of interregional cooperation in the strategic perspective and, in most economic and legal issues; it relies on the experience of the European countries, such as Germany and Italy. Studying the world experience and identifying common economic and legal trends in the partnership implementation between regions could help Ukraine to introduce this process in practical terms and possibly avoid the most popular problems in this area. The sphere of interregional cooperation is not only economic sphere; it is a consolidation of the social sphere, economic and ecological, which is the embodiment of sustainable development of each region and the country as a whole. Value / originality. The research presents an analysis of interregional partnership in some European countries (Germany and Italy). The work compares the experience of interregional dispute implementation between the countries based on the strategic documents in this area that are related to sustainable development. Specific statistical and methodological examples of socio-economic development of the above-mentioned countries are presented in the process of establishing interregional ties. The comparative analysis of strategic subregion elements of interregional cooperation are presented and the results of the analysis by means of interval estimation are ranked. Recommendations on implementation the European experience in interregional cooperation for sustainable development in Ukraine are given. For the first time in Ukraine, the sphere of interregional partnership is analyzed not only in the light of the economy, but also through a comprehensive consideration of its economic and legal preconditions. It is expedient to use this approach, because it could be used for calculating not only the economic trends of the development of this sphere of cooperation, but also for paying attention to its legal regulation (due to the Association Agreement between Ukraine and the EU, in which interregional cooperation is one of the central places for sustainable development). Subsequently, based on these results, it would be possible to develop practical recommendations for the harmonization of Ukrainian legislation in accordance with EU legislation, which would include the economic mechanisms for the functioning of interregional cooperation and sustainable development in Ukraine.  Keyword Set: World experience, economic and legal foundations, interregional cooperation, development, strategy

The Impact

Although organic farming is an important topic for society, at the European level there have been few achievements so far. Despite its constant increase, the demand for organic food in Europe is outweighing the development of this sector. As such, we aim to assess the interaction between conventional and organic agriculture, as well as their impact on the value of agricultural production at the European level. The main objective of this article is the assessment of the impact of organic farming, as compared with conventional agriculture, on sustainable development of European countries. Therefore, we used panel models based on data collected from the Eurostat database. We found that an increase of 1% of the organic farming areas will generate a contraction in agricultural production of 0.278%, whereas a 1% increase in the production of fertilizers would generate an increase of 0.260% in agriculture production. Moreover, an increase of 1% in the production of plant protection substances and in gross capital formation would generate increases of 0.1190% and 0.0933%, respectively, in agriculture production. The obtained results depend mainly on the characteristics of work on land, as some agricultural engineering methods (crop rotation, pest control, use of fertilizers etc.) influence productivity and production.

This study aims to examine the link between foreign direct investment (FDI) inflows and economic growth, also considering several institutional quality variables, as well as sustainable development goals (SDGs) set in the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development. By estimating panel data regression models for a sample of 11 Central and Eastern European countries, from 2003 to 2016, the empirical outcomes provide support for a non-linear relationship between FDI and gross domestic product per capita. Regarding institutional quality, it is found that control of corruption, government effectiveness, regulatory quality, rule of law, and voice and accountability positively influence growth, while political stability and absence of violence/terrorism is not statistically significant. Moreover, SDGs such as poverty, income distribution, education, innovation, transport infrastructure, and information technology are noteworthy drivers of growth. The outcomes of panel fully modified and dynamic ordinary least squares partly confirm the findings. The panel vector error-correction model Granger causalities provide support for a short-run one-way causal association running from FDI to growth and a long-run two-way causal connection among FDI and growth. Furthermore, in the long run, unidirectional causal relationships running from each institutional quality indicator to economic growth and FDI are set out.

The article considers the model of circular economy and the possibility of its implementation in Ukraine. The authors explore the main aspects of the circular economy and the relationship with the goals of sustainable development. It is noted that the use of innovations and innovation systems is the basis of the circular economy, which will ensure the interdependence between the reduction of non-returnable waste and increase the use of reusable resources, will not improve the ecological and economic condition of the country. The article analyzes the economic content of methods and models of implementation of the circular economy by identifying their impact on the sustainability of economic and government systems. The generalization of world experience in the implemented concepts of the circular economy allowed us to identify 5 main circular business models: circular deliveries, resource recovery, platforms for exchange and sharing, product as a service. The article gives examples of implementation of the principles of circular economy in the production of world brands. Prerequisites and recommendations for the introduction of a circular economy in Ukraine are summarized. It is determined that the introduction of a circular economy is beneficial for the enterprise or company, for consumers, communities and the state as a whole. The advantages in the long run on optimization of material flows, opportunities to enter new markets, expand the scope of services, obtaining additional profits in the field of services are highlighted. The interrelation of business models of circular economy recommended for use in Ukraine is established. The article identifies further steps of the study, which will be aimed at building a model of circular economy, based on the experience of leading European countries, taking into account Ukrainian characteristics, as well as detailed performance criteria for companies implementing circular economy depending on the scope and size.

Industrial districts (IDs) have developed in many regions and countries of Europe, especially in Italy and southern countries, since the end of the 1970s. This chapter underlines the emerging of this territorial model of development, remembering both the discovery of the phenomenon in European countries and the introduction of the debate and the progressive awareness of territories’ stakeholders and policymakers on the specific features and needs of this kind of organization’s model. Specific attention has been devoted to the transformation’s trajectories of IDs to avoid the risks of collapse. All this requires the capability to introduce active strategies and policies to reproduce dynamic competitive factors. A shared interpretation of the transformation’s process and prospects for IDs should be the basis for collective actions to maintain sustainable development. Lessons for developmental industrial policies are drawn at the end, even for emerging countries and new industrial regions.
