The aim of the article is to identify and, based on interdisciplinary approach, analyze main trends in the transformation of globalization processes in the context of the consequences of Russia\\\'s full-scale war against Ukraine. The critical escalation of the geostrategic struggle for world economic and financial leadership has led to the predominance of governments’ geopolitical considerations over purely market considerations of comparative advantage. Under these conditions, globalization becomes very vulnerable to political decisions at the state and intergovernmental levels. The key actors in the world economy and politics, the United States, the EU, and China, have been increasingly considering their participation i...

Since the Horde Russia would be effected by the oriental despotism. The Russian modernization historically took place under the Western civilization’s influence but its instruments were mostly despotic and essentially anti-European. The Russian historical drama is that the social base of its modernization had been exterminated during the Bolshevik Revolution and Stalin’s dictatorship, and by now, in the train of the ongoing post-communist transformations, is still in germ. In contrast to the American Great Power doctrine where democracy serves as an important tool, Putin’s Russia has chosen the absolute priority of state and corporate interests over rights, freedoms and interests of its citizens. The author concludes that the fundamental problems and challenges, which had confronted the Rus...

The purpose of this study is to compare the religious and ethical systems of Confucianism and Protestantism in terms of their competitive advantages, compliance with the interests of global economic leadership, and mutual adaptability. The study applies the interdisciplinary approach, methods of synergetic, civilizational and world-system analysis. It is argued that the modernization potential and mental-value compatibility of the Protestant and Confucian worlds is much higher than that of respectively the Protestant and the post-Soviet Eurasian. The key...

Three main approaches to research―and, accordingly, three levels of cognizing the conflict’s nature—are critically analyzed: neorealistic, political, and cultural. On the basis of a postnonclassical conception of the world and a fractal understanding of the East-West dichotomy, Ukraine’s historical, linguistic and cultural diversity, particularly in the Donbas, are considered as a continuum of fractal differences and oppositions from the national to the local levels. Political and institutional ways of settling the armed conflict in the Donbas in line with contemporary globalization trends are recommended. The author concludes that the conflict cannot be settled until Ukraine represents a certain balance (dynamic and value-varied in space) between East and West. An inclusive cooperative model of security in Europe and Eurasia is advocated. Fo...

The study substantiates the feasibility of using the results of consulting activities in the implementation of strategic objectives by the executive authorities at any level of government. The ways and methods of organizing consulting activities on the basis of digital platforms for the purpose of informational and analytical support of management technologies of public administration and civil service reform analyzed. Based on the results of the study, a model of using consulting services in the public administration system was developed. The criteria of efficiency of realization project management consulting in the public sector, based on digital platforms highlighted.

The key structural trends of globalization in the context of competition between liberal and communitarian paradigms have been identified. On this basis, the probable shifts in accents of contemporary economic thought are predicted. It is substantiated that due to strengthening the global role of China, particularly in the economic, financial, and infrastructural spheres, today there is a tangible influence of Confucian values and East Asian models of successful modernization of the economy and society on the socio-economic policy of some countries of Central and Eastern Europe against a backdrop of a relative consolidation of their economic positions in the EU. With this regard, the heritage of the German Historical Schoo...

The thesis about slow, partial (only in certain segments), unsystematic overcoming of divergent trends by Ukraine, which appeared in the first years after signing the EU-Ukraine Association Agreement, is substantiated. In particular, there are clear trends of divergence between Ukraine and the EU in the areas of social development, personal security, rule of law, some civil and political rights and freedoms, which is primarily due to insufficient effectiveness of European integration reforms, lack of consensus in the political elite and society with regard to "Road map" of modernization, consequences of Russian aggression and the ongoing armed conflict in the ...

Analyzed the similarity between the problems of the Republic of Korea, which has been at war with its northern neighbor for more than 70 years, and Ukraine since 2014, as both countries are at the epicenter of strategic conflicts in Eurasia, in which basic interests of world powers collide. Confucianism is analyzed as a model of social and personal relations that has absorbed the wisdom and experience of the millennia-old civilization, demonstrated its exceptional viability, capacity to dynamically modernize and creatively assimilate the achievements of other cultures and civilizations. There is a unique synthesis of values of the two most competitive systems of work ethic in the modern world – Confucianism and Protestantism, which ensured the phenomenal success of the South Korean modern...

Above all, it is an active “entrepreneurial” role of the state in developing infrastructure as an important factor of production and encouraging, under competitive market environment, export-oriented sectors of the economy based on existing comparative advantages, gradual introducing to competitive positions in domestic and foreign markets the previously established large capital-intensive and high-tech enterprises. A critical prerequisite for success is the state’s proper attention to developing "soft" infrastructure, in particular, ensuring such important components of the "inclusive" economy as respect for property rights, impartiality of commercial courts, wide choice of economic activity, quality education system devoid of class privileges and status barriers...

The conclusion about their deep value nature is grounded. Hence, it is proposed to look for ways of successful modernization based on pivotal cultural and historical traditions that have a consolidating, consensus character for all regions of multicultural Ukraine and for the Ukrainian civil nation as a whole.

Целью данного исследования является компаративный анализ религиозно-этических систем конфуцианства и протестантизма с точки зрения их конкурентных преимуществ, соответствия интересам глобального экономического лидерства и взаимной адаптивности. В работе применен междисциплинарный подход, использованы методы синергетического, цивилизационного и мир-системного анализа. Обосновано, что модернизационный потенциал и ментально-ценностная совместимость протестантского и конфуцианского миров гораздо выше, чем протестантского и постсоветско-евразийского. Определены ключевые соответствия этико-ценностных принципов и мотиваций протестантской и конфуцианской культур в их генетике, исторической динамике и современном измерении. Показано, что такие основополагающие принципы современного западного общества, как плюрализм и верховенство права, имеют свои традиционные соответствия, хотя и в превращенной форме, среди главных ценностей китайской и, географически шире, конфуцианской социальной культуры. Поэтому нынешняя тенденция возвращения Китая к своим культурным корням, к конфуцианской этике не только не мешает процессу модернизации и движению страны к глобальному финансово-экономическому лидерству, но, наоборот, способствует указанным процессам. В этом плане перспективы рациональной конвергенции ценностей Востока и Запада, прежде всего протестантизма и конфуцианства, в рамках новой глобализованной цивилизации будущего представляются весьма вероятными.
