Abstract The mosaic approach to conflict requires redefinition of some doctrinal concepts that can influence the way in which the response to the risks and threats to the state of security, the future of military actions and the acceptance that the technological development will be a factor for the success of the wars future. The issues addressed could be important elements in the architecture of a possible future strategic concept of integrated use of the basic elements of national power - diplomatic, informational, military and economic. At the same time, the results of this theoretical approach can contribute, as a reference point, to proposing viable and innovative doctrinal and operational solutions to counteract aggressions to national security, regardless of their nature or origin.

This chapter focuses on how Albert Hirschman presented that the image of the economy as a fully competitive system where changes in the fortunes of individual firms are exclusively caused by basic shifts of comparative advantage is certainly an inaccurate representation of the real world. In associations such as the family, the state, and religious, civic, and professional institutions, loyalty dominates and often trumps exit in favor of voice. “Exit” means leaving behind a product, a service, a firm, or a country to seek others, whereas “voice” refers to the choice to seek influence and have a say in determining the future quality of products or institutions. The chapter shows how Hirschman knew about exit, the search for voice, and the conflicts of loyalties first-hand through his eventful life and travels.

The relevance of an independent assessment of the quality of the conditions for the delivery of services (IAQ) as a tool for assessing the state of the social sphere is determined by the ability to use it to identify the expectations of a modern consumer, his needs, to detail shortcomings in the delivery of services and develop measures to eliminate them. Independent assessment acts as a form of public control, contributing to the development of civil society, allowing to eliminate problems and improve the system of providing services in the social sphere. The aim of the study is to consider the potential of using IAQ in solving problems of public administration. The research methods used in the work serve as a significant empirical base based on the results of monitoring studies of the implementation of IAQ in the regions of the Russian Federation based on surveys of government representatives and citizens who receive services, as well as on the basis of information provided on the official website for posting information about state (municipal) institutions bus.gov.ru, and have a formal and logical component in terms of conducting a comparative analysis of regulatory sources, using analytical methods of functional and statistical analysis. The choice of research tools was determined by the presence in the current database of the functioning of the IAQ from the moment of its creation in 2013 to the present. The analysis of the results of an independent quality assessment made it possible to identify key shortcomings in the social sphere, the structure of problems that are most often found in the regions and their relationship with the main directions of socio-economic development of the constituent entities of the Russian Federation. According to the results of the study, the hypothesis was confirmed that the incorporation of an independent assessment into the system of executive authorities, which allows to quickly obtain objective data on the state of the social sphere, makes it possible to put its results into practice aiming to analyze the achievement of national goals and ensuring the socio-economic development of Russia. The use of the results of the IAQ to increase the validity and efficiency of management decisions to improve the activities of public organizations for officials of state authorities of the constituent entities of the Russian Federation and representatives of public organizations responsible for their development, allows for a comprehensive impact on improving the quality of life of the population.

Social work is aimed at meeting the vital and social needs of man. An important mission is assigned by the state to the head of a social institution who has a high level of professional competence. Competence is a key concept that characterizes the quality of professional training of the head of a social institution, his readiness for social activities and is one of the important factors in improving the quality of social services in the state. The essential features of the state personnel policy confirm the need for high professional competence in public administration. Competence is a concept that logically comes from attitudes to values and from skills to knowledge. The head of a social institution must have formed civic competencies, which is a prerequisite for national security. Participation in international projects (for example, in the Swiss-Ukrainian project "Development of Civic Competences in Ukraine – DOCCU") aims to use the best international experience in the formation of civic competences, promotes awareness of educators, civil servants, local governments on democratic citizenship and human rights. The structure of civic competence of the head of a social institution, which contains cognitive, value and activity components. Such projects contribute to the creation of conditions for the head of a social institution to acquire skills of civil law activity, self-organization and self-government. Conclusions and prospects for further research. So, based on the above, we came to the following conclusions: - the level of formation of civic competencies of the head of the social institution is an indicator of his readiness to perform his professional duties; - civic competencies of the head of a social institution, based on the national interests of the state, are an important prerequisite for national security; - We see the introduction of the obligatory discipline "Formation of civic competencies of the future head of a social institution" in the educational program "Social work" as a promising direction of further research.

This article examines the issue of the effectiveness and quality of the implementation of parliamentary control in the spheres of spirituality and culture, as an aspect of ensuring national security in the modern conditions of the hybrid aggression of the Russian Federation against Ukraine. It is noted that parliamentary control in Ukraine is extremely insufficient and rather contradictory, which does not yet allow to talk about the stability of parliamentary control as such, about its proper scientific understanding and legal consolidation in modern conditions, especially in the context of the hybrid aggression of the Russian Federation against Ukraine. It was stated that social changes caused by globalization processes affect the state of ensuring national security in such spheres as culture and spirituality. Currently, this issue has not been studied enough, and therefore needs further development. It was noted that in the field of culture, certain positive changes in the implementation of state (parliamentary) control have been achieved in recent years. However, in the sphere of spirituality (spiritual culture) and in the related religious sphere, as a result of the ideological sabotage and special informational operations carried out by the Russian Federation, a spiritual crisis has actually been generated in Ukraine, the resolution of which is an urgent task of the state power. Parliamentary control in these areas, which should be carried out through the prism of national security, is virtually absent. A number of proposals have been worked out, which are advisable to be introduced into the process of exercising parliamentary control over the aforementioned spheres.

The publication represents the first fragment of the large comparative study, directed to the investigation of factors which negatively influenced to the state of health and emotional sphere of students from Chemical Faculty (CF, 102 persons) and economic (EF, 68 persons) faculties of the same university. For this goal, the genetical, psychological and sociological investigation was included into the study. The block of standard psychological scales, detecting levels of expression of social adoption, alarm, overfatigue and interpersonal relations as well as the subjective welfare scale, are used for anonymous psychological testing. For the analysis of the conduct of life, state of health and influence of socioeconomic factors the special card-interview is created. For the levels of genomic instability evaluation, the micronuclear test on the buccal epithelium cells is used. We found out that students from CF had 3 times more level of stress expression than students from EF. We detected the two significant factors, negatively influenced to emotional sphere: the student’s relation to their future profession and the duration of the contact with chemical compounds during laboratory studies. In the latter case, in addition to correlation with category “faculty”, the dependence on time of duration (hours/week) of laboratory work is revealed. The influence of material prosperity and indicators of a conduct of life on the state of health and the emotional sphere of students aren’t revealed. As the relation to the future profession is proved as an essential factor of students’ quality of life and health, it is represented to be correct to reveal the true relation to the future profession during admission examinations by means of special psychological tests. Such approach can not only become base of a new technology of health protection during the training in higher schools, but also to increase the number of students who after release will work on the chosen specialty will allow increase.

AbstractThe analysis of American experience of higher education transnationalization, as well as influence of these processes on various spheres of social development has been done. The main factor is the desire to improve the quality of higher education national system, which leads to positive competition between local and foreign universities and serves as an important incentive for improving the quality of educational services. The obtained results testify that over the past decades the higher education transnationalization has become a subject of state “soft power” policy aimed at addressing specific internal political, social and financial problems. The “soft power” policy concept (by J. Nye) defines it as the ability of a country to get the desired issue by self-attractiveness rather than conquest power or money. The key of “soft power” is the image of the state, which is formed and managed not only by the government, but the citizens themselves, the country as a whole, including its history, achievements, culture, etc. The study leads to the conclusion that higher education transnationalization in the United States is a result of active international marketing activities of universities, as well as targeted state economic, political and information support. The prognostic potential of the conducted scientific research enables the concept development of Ukrainian higher education integration into the world educational space on the basis of constructive ideas of foreign experience consideration at the state and institutional levels.

The article analyzes problems of providing free secondary legal aid in Ukraine. Based on the studied statistical indicators, it is determined, that the most unresolved issues are the availability and quality of legal aid. It is stated, that in order to overcome these obstacles, the state, represented by the authorized bodies, cooperates with many international organizations, participates in international technical assistance projects and provides communication with international and national public organizations. Based on the study, it is noted, that today attention should be paid not only to highlight the possibility of obtaining free secondary legal aid, but also to the dissemination of mechanisms for obtaining such assistance and their features. It is determined, that today in Ukraine the state and public organizations are actively working to increase the level of availability of free legal aid in Ukraine. The Law of Ukraine «On Free Legal Aid» contains a detailed list of persons entitled, in particular, to receive free secondary legal aid, the rights and obligations of entities to provide such assistance. However due to the abstract nature of legal norms and the style of their presentation, there is a need in society to explain these regulations to the population. To this end, various activities are carried out, in particular, cooperation with the media, publishing brochures, distributing educational videos on the Internet, which has a positive character and, as a consequence, achieving the goal – increasing the availability of free legal aid in Ukraine. The participation of representatives of the international community in providing free legal aid is analyzed. It was stated, that the representatives of the Council of Europe recommended that the national institutions improve the legal framework for the provision of free legal aid in order to make the institution more accessible and understandable to those entitled to receive it. In addition, the Council of Europe recommended improving the area of ​​criminal justice in terms of coherence of efforts to provide each suspect or accused with affordable and quality legal assistance. It is noted, that the quality of free legal aid depends on many factors. In particular, lawyers discussed the thesis of incentives to provide quality assistance, as in a significant number of cases the lawyer interferes with concentration, and as a consequence, reduces the level of positive decisions. It is determined, that free legal aid does not provide support to citizens in applying to international judicial institutions, such as the European Court of Human Rights

The growth of the systemic impact of the challenges and threats to national security necessitates the adoption of government-management decisions that should be adequate to existing trends of rather ambiguous and contradictory socio-political and socio-economic processes. Strategic planning as a function of strategic management today is considered as a universal mechanism for balancing the goals and capabilities of the state with respect to its development. To the quality of the results of strategic planning in the field of political security put forward quite stringent requirements. Their successful implementation depends to a large extent on understanding of the subjects involved in this process, its essence, as well as on the use of their effective methodological tools for achieving the planning objectives. Scientists and planners singled out two ways of planning. At the heart of the first method of planning is – description and analysis of the current state, that is, the initial conditions, and on this basis, prediction of the future. At the heart of the second is the idea of designing the future and then trying to formulate action plans, the implementation of which can lead to the achievement of the planned future. As a result of analysis showed that in order to study the interconnections between these factors, it is expedient to use system and situational approaches and system analysis. Political and strategic forecasting is used to obtain predictive estimates of their development. The essence of strategic planning in the interests of ensuring political security is the search for an answer to the question: the declared national goals in the political sphere are adequate to the national political interests, which is the probability of their achievement (taking into account the capabilities (resources) of the state and the possible actions (goals, strategies) of other countries underlying their foreign and domestic policies). The effectiveness of public administration in the sphere of political security depends to a large extent on the quality of strategic planning, which should be based on the results of strategic forecasting (developing long-term forecasts for the development of political security situations and management strategies for adequate responses to them). Accordingly, the main attention of the subjects of this planning should be focused on ensuring the quality of the results of strategic analysis, which must necessarily take into account the consequences of the implementation of certain management decisions in the future, public support, resource capabilities, solving socio-political development, planning and the implementation of relevant foreign-policy actions. Strategic planning in the sphere of political security is the development of strategic documents. The features of the development of the object of management, adequate perception and a thorough analysis of external and internal environmental factors of its functioning should be taken into account in the process of their development.
