The issue of the subject and objects of accounting are constantly in the center of attention of scientists and is being investigated in various aspects. At the same time the conducted researches are predominantly sustainable and don't exceed the traditional accounting concepts and ideas. It is the definition of the content of the object and the subject of accounting as a science that doesn't agree with the philosophical concept of the interaction of the subject with the object in cognitive activity process. Traditionally in accounting publications the idea of the subject is considered more meaningful than the idea of the object. At the same time the various economic resources, means, sources of their formation, etc. are included to the category of objects. Considering these comments, in the article with using the achievements of modern gnosiology, economic theory, scientific concepts of accounting an attempt is made to determine the content of its subject and objects. With this purpose the analysis of existing researches on the issues of accounting subject and objects in regard to their relationship with the categories of goods and property is done. According to the conceptual provisions of gnosiology, the phenomena and processes of economic activity in regard to accounting in the aspect of interaction of subject with the object are primary, and the acquired knowledge about them is secondary. Therefore it is logical to call the knowledge in regard to goods and property as the subject of accounting as a science. This doesn't contradict the fact that the individual phenomena and processes of economic activity in regard to their self-knowledge can be studied as an object, and the results of scientific research can be called subject when agreement with their inherent commercial properties and property relations, which in their totality form the subject of accounting as a science.

Introduction. The article is devoted to the issues of multidisciplinary interaction in new scientific fields, which involve a wide variety of convergences, no matter how strange at first glance they may seem. One of these phenomena is the interaction of psycholinguistics and neuroeconomics. The goal. The article examines the transition of modern science to multidisciplinary discourse, which makes it necessary to conceptualize and possibly operationalize methods of psycholinguistics. The conceptualization of new areas of neuroeconomics, in a psycholinguistic context, presupposes a certain mental experience that includes, in addition to the processes of creating new concepts and contextual economic knowledge, also defining the role of interests, intentions, emotions in human economic activity. Methods. Multivariate analysis, comparative analysis, extrapolation. Results. It is proved that in recent decades the development of new areas of economic science, namely those related to the development of neuroeconomics, has significantly expanded the field of psycholinguistics. The production of new paradigms of economic theory, the formation of the corresponding definitions, objects requires the design and definition of them both in form and in content. It considers the need for a theoretical and orderly definition of the functional meaning of the psycholinguistic context of new definitions, the result of which can be a conceptual system for communication between specialists in various fields of science at the level of their professional understanding. It seems that the central issues in the psycholinguistic discourse of neuroeconomics have become the relationship between economics, psychology, linguistics and psycholinguistics. Such connection is undoubtedly of a multidisciplinary nature, which contributes to the deepening of the relationship between scientific thought, culture and language and became the impetus for understanding the nature of human cognition at a higher, multidisciplinary level of development of science. This is a necessary component for understanding the meanings and structure of concepts, terms and definitions, as well as communications at a higher scientific level. Conclusions. It is concluded that new areas of neuroeconomics such as behavioral economics, behavioral finance, emotional economics, psychological economics, have become areas of economic theory that, explicitly or implicitly, take into account the psychological characteristics of human perception and behavior in the process of economic activity. These definitions catalyze the theoretical integration of various scientific fields, and, above all, psycholinguistic science.

The article examines the definition of the term "foreign economic activity", analyses the definitions of foreign economic activity as well as legislation and theory formed in connection with the emergence, as well as the history of this term. Based on the results of the analysis of the definition of the term "foreign economic activity", its advantages and fragmentation and incompleteness are formulated in separate definitions, the need to highlight its complexity and multi-segment is emphasized, which are the objects, criteria and analytical features of economic management at micro level and legal regulation at macro level in this area. The article revealed the composition of the elements of the system of legal regulation of foreign economic activity, which includes: types of foreign economic activity, methods of foreign economic regulation, tools to influence foreign economic activity, subjects of foreign economic activity in Ukraine. The non-exclusive importance of legal regulation of foreign economic activity of economic entities in the field of grain growing is substantiated, namely the strategic importance of grain in the process of ensuring economic security of the country, including food, the priority of the grain market, which is enshrined in law. Based on the analysis of the system of legal regulation of foreign economic activity, a systematic approach to the interpretation of the category "legal regulation of foreign economic activity in the field of grain growing" is proposed. Improvement and specification of the specific category in the field of grain growing will create the necessary conditions for increasing the efficiency of using the existing potential at macro and micro levels. The proposals were made to improve the current legislation by eliminating the identified shortcomings in the definition of the term category in the interpretation of the concept of "foreign economic activity", what will promote the development of the system of legal regulation of foreign economic activity in the field and achieving the goals of sustainable development of Ukraine in accordance with the National Report of the Ministry of Economic Development and Trade of Ukraine (2017), in particular, the legal regulation of investment insurance.

RésuméPartant du constat que l’hypothèse d’un retour des retraités en ville est régulièrement évoquée dans le discours politique, cet article se propose d’interroger le contenu de cette hypothèse en revenant sur la définition du «retour» et, ensuite, de la tester à partir de l’exemple de la Région de Bruxelles-capitale. Il en ressort un double niveau de définition à la fois macro et micro impliquant une lecture différente du phénomène. Au niveau macro, si on observe une augmentation de l’immigration des 50-69 ans en ville, le solde migratoire pour ce groupe d’âge demeure négatif, traduisant une certaine difficulté du monde urbain à conserver ses résidants âgés. Au niveau micro, on observe un retour en ville de personnes qui y ont vécu une partie de leur enfance, de la même manière qu’on observe ce phénomène pour des communes rurales.AbstractNoting that the assumption of a return of retired city is regularly mentioned in political discourse, this article seeks to examine the contents of this hypothesis by returning to the definition of «return». Then, this hypothesis is tested from the example of Brussels-capital. It shows two levels of definition of both macro and micro involving a different interpretation of the phenomenon. At the macro level, if an increasing immigration of 50-69 years in the city is observed, the migration balance for this age group remains negative, reflecting the difficulties of the urban world to retain its older residents. At the micro level, there is a return to the city of people who have lived part of their childhood in the city.

Automation promises increased operating efficiency and suggests the opportunity to reduce the number of people required to operate commercial ships safely; however, clumsy automation may degrade safety and performance, rather than enhance it. This paper distinguishes between clumsy automation at the macro level and clumsy automation at the micro level and discusses macro level issues. Specifically, macro level clumsy automation refers to the failure to consider the broad implications of automation induced crew reductions. Clumsy automation may reduce workload and facilitate crew reductions during routine sailing, but these crew reductions may leave the vessel more vulnerable to unacceptable workload peaks during unusual and emergency situations (fires, unscheduled maintenance, rough seas, reduced visibility). In these situations, tasks not accommodated by the automation may overwhelm a crew that has been reduced by the introduction of automation. Currently, no systematic procedure exists to estimate the changes that automation implies for staffing levels and skill requirements. Avoiding the effects of clumsy automation depends on identifying techniques to broaden the study of automation to include the effects on the entire crew during all phases of ship operation. This paper describes a computer-based tool to help identify potential overload situations that would be difficult to anticipate through intuitive assessments of how automation and other factors affect crew requirements.

The article emphasizes the importance of the interdependence of managing the economic efficiencyof economic activity at the macro level and the micro level, considering that management efficiency was firststudied as an independent concept as a result of pressing issues of the present time, such as quality,efficiency, solvency, stability, optimality, reliability. The concept of efficiency in the context of the economiccategory has been considered, the main types of efficiency have been defined. The difference between theconcept of efficiency and effectiveness has been justified. Theoretical and practical aspects of the analysis ofthe effectiveness of the business entity's activity have been stated. Characterization of the fundamentalapproaches and methods of analyzing the effectiveness of the enterprise has been given. As a result of theresearch targeted, systematic, individual and integrated approaches to determining performance have beenemphasized. It has been suggested to use complex and individual approaches to evaluate the effectivenessof the enterprise activity, which should take into account the specificity of the sphere of activity. The systemof criteria and indicators of the analysis of efficiency of the enterprise activity has been presented,generalized and investigated.

Introduction. The issue of legal research of organizational and economic powers is constantly in the focus of researchers in the field of both economic and administrative law. There are different views on the emergence of organizational and economic powers. Some scholars believe that such powers arise exclusively in the process of managing economic activity, others - both in the process of management and in the process of regulating economic activity. In particular, the issues of organization and control of economic activity are added to such discussions. Accordingly, as a result of which processes the organizational and economic powers arise today are not so clearly defined at the legislative or doctrinal levels. Topicality. Given this uncertainty regarding the processes during which organizational and economic powers arise, many questions and problems arise during their implementation. In particular, this problem is manifested in the separation of organizational and economic and power powers, especially when the subject is simultaneously endowed with the functions of power and organizational and economic nature in the process of managing economic activity. Accordingly, the analysis of the concepts of organization, management, regulation and control of economic activity in the context of the theory of economic and administrative law and the theoretical and legal perspective needs its justification and systematic scientific disclosure. Summary of the main results of the research. The definition of these concepts at the legislative and doctrinal levels has been worked out. The concept of organization of economic activity is studied, which is proposed to be considered broadly (as an independent direction of activity aimed at rational combination in time and space of all elements of economic system of appropriate level: national (sectoral), local (regional), at the level of economic entities); and narrow meanings (as a management function that is implemented in the process of unification (distribution) of subjects, objects, means and is designed to create a new or reorganize or liquidate the existing system). It is established that economic management is an independent type of activity that is implemented in relation to social relations that arise, change and cease in connection with the implementation or realization of the intention to conduct economic activity on the basis of property relations on the basis of property, control relations. -subordination and delegated powers in order to effectively implement it. It is proposed to consider state regulation of economic activity at the macro and micro levels. It is investigated that control is one of the management function. Conclusions. It is substantiated that organizational and economic powers arise in the process of business management and or regulation of economic activity (at the micro level). It is proposed to include in the Commercial Code of Ukraine the following definition of organizational and economic relations: “organizational and economic relations in this Code mean the relations between business entities and subjects of organizational and economic powers in the process of economic management and / or economic regulation. activities (at the micro level)".

Level Analysis

The family power literature, in its macro-level focus on marital decision making, has emphasized the kind of family power that is generally conferred on men and is based on extrafamilial roles and performance. Women, by virtue of their intrafamilial roles as kinkeepers and nurturers, are more deeply, extensively, and enduringly embedded in the family; yet the power that accrues to them as the lynchpins of family cohesion and socialization has received little attention. A micro-level analysis of family power reveals that women's positions in the family power structure rest not on the horizontal marital tie but rather are derived from the more complex, significant, and dynamic power of the intergenerational bond.

The author claims that J. Kornai in his paper Innovation and Dynamism (Voprosy Ekonomiki. 2012. No 4) ignored the understanding of socialism as a specific type of culture and not just as an economic system. He also shows profound differences between Schumpeters theory and mainstream economic models. Evolutionary theory, he claims, may itself become mainstream if Schumpeters legacy is not interpreted straightforwardly and if evolutionary economists consider not only micro-, but also macro-level of analysis in studying macrogenerations of capital of a different age.
