The purpose of this article has been to present the history of the Polish National Cittaslow Network, to discuss its development and to draw the attention to the diversity of network member cities. The authors emphasise the fact that the Polish National Cittaslow Network is developing very dynamically, and is the second largest network of Cittaslow in the world. Today, it is composed of 28 cities, of which 20 lie in the Warmińsko-Mazurskie Voivodeship. Other two centers are currently in the process of joining the network. The member cities are diverse in terms of their size as well as environmental or cultural assets. They are also diverse in terms of the level of socio-economic development. There are such cities in the network whose level of entrepreneurship, measured by the number of private sector businesses per 1,000 residents, is much higher than the average for the whole network (Rzgów, Murowana Goślina), but there are also cities with a very low level of entrepreneurship (Rejowiec Fabryczny, Jeziorany). Despite the differences, the cities associated in the network share the same concept and pursue shared aims in order to improve the quality of life for their inhabitants. They are proponents of implementing pro-social and pro-environmental measures, while striving to preserve the unique character of each of these cities.

In 1986, it marked the renovation path, changing mechanisms and policies in all aspects, including Vietnam's economy. Since then, Vietnam's economy has grown rapidly with the contribution of the private sector, which was explained through Schumpeter's theory, and innovation was considered as the blood source for the nation's existence and development. The paper aims to explore the relationship between domestic innovation activities and economic development in Vietnam during 1988-2018. Data in the study were collected from the World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO), the World Bank (World Bank). This study used the Vector Autoregression Model (VAR) to analyze the relationship between domestic innovation activities and economic development. The research results show that Vietnam's domestic innovation activity is still limited, and has a twoway relationship between domestic innovation activities and economic development in Vietnam. Based on the research results, Vietnam needs to have an appropriate policy for economic development, especially focusing on renovating mechanisms and policies to create conditions for the private sector to strengthen its innovation to develop thereby contributing to Vietnam's economic development.

Depending on geographical location, the development of Georgian economy was directly related to the efficient use of transit function. For Georgia, as a transit function, the importance of transportation infrastructure is important in the formation of its geo-economic positioning strategy. The acquisition, realization and development of Georgia›s transport potential began in the 90s of the 20th century. Nevertheless, complex research and analysis on the possibilities of development of transit function of the country in Georgian economic literature is not practically investigated yet. Morover, there are not identified determinants on the development of the sector, and their impact on the economic development of the country is not defined either. The study aims to analyze capabilities of Georgia›s transit potential and to determine its influence on economic development of the country in the process of integration of modern world economy. The following objectives are derived: • Identification of significant stimulant determination of development of transport / logistics field and its effectiveness; • Establishment of transit / logistics potential for economic development of the country. The objective of the research is the transport and logistics sector in the Member States of the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development, the Caucasus and Central Asian countries as an important instrument of economic development of the country. The research is subject to comparative analysis of the targeted and consequential indicators of transport and logistics sector in the member states of the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development, in the Caucasus and Central Asia. The theoretical foundation of the research is the works of various Georgian and foreign researchers about the study. The survey was based on the World Bank, the Organization for Economic Development and Cooperation, Eurostat, National Statistics Office of Georgia, Georgian and Foreign Professionals, Georgian and Foreign Marine Ports, Railway and Motor Operators, as well as the laws of Georgia. The work is based on analysis and synthesis, quantitative, qualitative, groupings, and medium-size, graphic expression, indexing, comparison, regression and correlation methods. The scientific innovation of the research is the attempt to conduct a complex examination of transit capabilities in Georgia, as a result of which: • Using the Panel Data Analysis Method is reasonable as the development of the transport / logistics sector is a very positive role in the socio-economic development of the country, the main determinant of which is the infrastructural investment. • Panel examinations and econometric calculations for member and partner countries of the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) with transit function and sea exit confirmed that investments in the transport/logistics infrastructure of these countries are the most efficient. The paper can be used to overcome the challenges of successful transit systems in Georgia and its successful integration into the world economy. Consequently, the findings and recommendations of the research topic are appropriate for the Ministry of Economy and Sustainable Development, the Ministry of Regional Development and Infrastructure, the Parliament of Georgia and other sectoral authorities, non-governmental organizations, scientific organizations and other stakeholders. In the process of teaching geo-economics, «international economy», «world economy» and their neighboring disciplines.

We study the impact of Russian regional governors’ rotation and their affiliation with private sector firms for the quality of investment climate in Russian regions. A theoretical model presented in the paper predicts that these factors taken together improve “endogenous” property rights under authoritarian regimes. This conclusion is confirmed empirically by using Russian regional data for 2002—2010; early in that period gubernatorial elections had been canceled and replaced by federal government’s appointments. This is an indication that under certain conditions government rotation is beneficial for economic development even when democracy is suppressed.

Subject. The 2020 economic crisis has become a global threat to the economic security of States, corporations and households. The elimination of this threat to economic security is a key priority of the State. Objectives. The article is dedicated to factors of the current crisis, both individually and in aggregate, as well as forecasts of the economic development during the crisis. Methods. The study is based on the scientific knowledge as dialectic, a combination of historical and logical unity, structural analysis, traditional methods of economic analysis and synthesis. Results. We carried out the comparative analysis of crisis theories, forecasted the economic development of the IMF, the World Bank, the Audit Chamber, and considered analytical agencies in dynamics, taking into account adjustments when the crisis manifests itself. Counteraction methods are reviewed from theoretical and practical perspectives. The article also analyzed the international expertise in crisis management. Conclusions and Relevance. The economic crisis was found to be at its initial stage, with negative scenarios being more probable. Proposed and implemented, local measures can mitigate the economic decline, prevent massive bankruptcies and a social explosion.
