Subject. The article focuses on market strategies of the Russian enterprises operating in the ferrous metallurgy. Objectives. The study is to analyze corporate strategies the leading ferrous metal manufacturers use in the Russian Federation, such as NLMK Group, Severstal, Magnitogorsk Iron & Steel Works, EVRAZ Group. Methods. The study interprets public financial statements and methods of the logic, intuitive and comparative analysis. Results. We analyze market strategies of the Russian metal manufacturers, determine their development priorities and competitive advantages and weaknesses. We describe the impact of various threats and measures metallurgical companies undertake to eliminate them. Conclusions and Relevance. We sorted out possible threats and exposures of the Russian metallurgic companies' economic security and traced the dynamics of their significance for 2015 to 2019. Key threats relate to policies, economy, external and internal market, regulations and laws, production, distribution and financial management, consumption, IT, social welfare and environment.

Training Service

Improving the quality in order to keep up with the trend in the world is the vital task of training institutions today. Training institutions need to grasp market needs and satisfy the requirements of customers - learners. Nadiri, H., Kandampully, J & Hussain, K. (2009) argue that the managers in education need to apply market strategies that are being used by manufacturing and business enterprises and need to be aware that the role of training institutions is a service industry which is responsible for satisfying learner needs (Elliott & Shin, 2002). Currently, there have been many researches on students’ satisfaction. However, each research has its own objectives and is conducted on different scales. This study is implemented to provide information about the factors affecting master students’ satisfaction with the training service at VNU School of Interdisciplinary Studies (VNU SIS). Through it, the research offers a number of solutions to improving the satisfaction level of the master students at VNU SIS in the coming time.

Dedicatory offerings of small colourful objects are often found in pre-Hispanic architectural contexts in the Ancestral Pueblo region of the American Southwest. These deposits are particularly numerous in the roof support pillars of circular ritual structures (kivas) at the site of Pueblo Bonito, Chaco Canyon, which served as the ceremonial hub of the Chacoan regional system between the tenth and twelfth centuries ce. Based on the importance of directionality and colour in traditional Pueblo worldviews, archaeologists speculate that the contents of these radial offerings may likewise reference significant Chacoan cosmographic elements. In this paper, I explore this idea by examining the distribution of colours and materials in kiva pilaster repositories in relation to directional quadrants, prominent landscape features, and raw material sources. I discuss the results in the context of Pueblo cosmology and assemblage theory, arguing that particular colours were polyvalent and relational, deriving their meanings from their positions within interacting and heterogenous assemblages.

This paper develops a simulation model which can be used to investigate a wide variety of stock market invest ment strategies. A brief review of the literature of stock market forecasting is given. The paper describes the de tails that any simulation of a stock market investor would have to include if the model is to be realistically com pared to the performance of real investors. An outline of the necessary features of any program which is to be used to investigate may different combinations of invest ment strategies and forecasting devices is also given. The program is described in detail and a few preliminary results are given.

Regional System

The world-systems perspective was invented for modeling and interpreting the expansion and deepening of the capitalist regional system as it emerged in Europe and incorporated the whole globe over the past 500 years (Wallerstein 1974; Chase-Dunn 1998; Arrighi 1994). The idea of a core/periphery hierarchy composed of “advanced” economically developed and powerful states dominating and exploiting “less developed” peripheral regions has been a central concept in the world-systems perspective. In the last decade the world-systems approach has been extended to the analysis of earlier and smaller intersocietal systems. Andre Gunder Frank and Barry Gills (1994) have argued that the contemporary global political economy is simply a continuation of a 5,000-year-old world system that emerged with the first states in Mesopotamia. Christopher Chase-Dunn and Thomas Hall (1997) have modified the basic world-systems concepts to make them useful for a comparative study of very different kinds of systems. They include very small intergroup networks composed of sedentary foragers, as well as larger systems containing chiefdoms, early states, agrarian empires, and the contemporary global system in their scope of comparison.
