Despite the processes of deglobalization, international labor migration to the construction sector continues to grow, creating threats to migration security through the processes of "polarization" of flows – social tensions, illegal employment and economic instability of regional labor markets. The existing studies do not simultaneously take into account the impact of deglobalization with correlation on "polarization," industry specifics, and economic security risks, which makes it difficult to develop effective mechanisms for managing migration flows. The main problem lies in the lack of a holistic conceptual model explaining the mechanisms for increasing international labor migration during the period of deglobalization, when traditional theories of globalization and the free movement of labor are losing explanatory power. The institutional, eco nomic and social factors that allow the construction market to act as a "point of attraction" for migrants, contrary to the general trend towards closeness and fragmentation of the global space, have not been studied sufficiently. The term reverse polarization of migration flows is not sufficiently disclosed. The paper proposes the approach to analyzing the depolarization of migration flows, a process in which labor is redistributed be tween and within countries with different levels of development, including through the return of some migrants to their homeland or their relocation to new employment regions. Special attention is paid to assessing the impact of these processes on the economic security of developed countries: the risks for staff shortages in critical industries, labor market imbalances, and potential benefits from workforce diversification are considered. The analysis for the cases from a number of developed countries demonstrating various models of adaptation to new migration realities is carried out. As a result, recommendations are formulated to improve migration policy, taking into account industry specifics and current geopolitical challenges.
The article analyzes modern digital solutions used in the marketing of fit-ness clubs and their impact on the development of the industry. The relevance of this study is due to the rapid digitalization of the service sector and changes in consumer behavior, especially after the pandemic restrictions that have led to transition to online classes.

It is concluded that digital solutions are becoming a key factor in competitiveness in the fitness market, allowing for a unique consumer experience and sustainable customer relationships.
The article examines the main types of territories with special economic regimes: special economic zones, free economic zones, and advanced development territories. Their typology, goal establishing, conditions and features of functioning, as well as variants of the legal regime are presented. The effectiveness of their functioning in key economic areas is summarized. In the Russian Federation, there are the following types of special economic regimes: special economic zones, free economic zones, territories of advanced development. Special economic regimes are created with the aim of creating favorable business conditions, attracting investment and stimulating development of priority industries, which undoubtedly determines the relevance of the topic of this study. In Russia, the operation of free economic zones is regulated by a special legal regime that provides preferences for businesses and permits the use of a simplified customs regime. The purpose of creating special economic zones is to promote important sectors of the economy, develop tourism, port and transport infrastructure, develop technologies and bring them to the market, as well as launch new products. Legislative regulation of special economic zones is carried out by Federal Law No. 116FZ dated 07.22.2005 "On Special Economic Zones in the Russian Federation", which establishes the legal regime of special economic zones, the procedure for creating zones and terminating their existence, and the specifics of entrepreneurial activity on their territory. 116-FZ interprets the definition of "a special economic zone is a part of the territory of the Russian Federation, which is determined by the Government of the Russian Federation and which has a special regime for conducting business, and the customs procedure of a free customs zone may also be applied".
Background. The relevance of the article is determined by the objectives of digitalization of education and focusing on the development of digital activities of university teachers within the framework of the Russian state policy in the field of digital transformation of society and education. Digital learning technologies are one of the technologies that provide equivalent professional training opportunities for specialists. However, in addition to the possibilities, the introduction of these technologies is accompanied by numerous ethical problems, in particular the problem of technostress, which sometimes calls into question the economic feasibility of their widespread and uncontrolled use. The purpose of the article is to determine the impact of technostress on the teaching staff, taking into account the experience of Samara State University of Economics. Materials and methods. The material of the work was scientific works of domestic and foreign authors on the research topic, legislative acts, electronic resources, etc. The research methods were interviewing, methods of description, observation and analysis, as well as cross-examination. Results. The results of the work deepen the understanding of the topic under study by presenting the characteristics of the concept of technostress in Russian and foreign sources, determining its influence on teachers (it contributes to the emergence of professional problems such as emotional burnout, low job satisfaction, and even retirement from the profession). Teachers may associate the use of ICT with increased exposure to these negative emotions, which leads to the fact that they minimize their dependence on technology as a mechanism for overcoming negative consequences. The prevalence of technostress among respondents was just over half. In general, the respondents had a moderate level of technostress. The more work experience, the less likely technostress is and the lower the level of its manifestation. The age and gender of the teaching staff, as well as the number of hours spent per day using technical devices, attending technology-related trainings, and years of using computer gadgets did not significantly affect their experience of technostress.
В статье отмечается, что российский рынок ценных бумаг представляет собой фундаментальный элемент национальной финансовой системы, оказывающий существенное влияние на экономическое развитие страны. Рынок ценных бумаг играет важную роль в аккумуляции инвестиционных ресурсов, содействии развитию корпоративного сектора и стимулировании общего экономического роста. Учитывая влияние глобальной неопределенности на развитие современной мировой экономики и не исключая высокой вероятности значительных трансформаций в финансовой системе России, анализ конкурентных взаимодействий на рынке ценных бумаг можно считать актуальным направлением исследования. Современная экономическая мысль предлагает множество методов для изучения конкуренции на рынке ценных бумаг. Среди них ключевое место занимает институциональный подход, который служит основой для научного анализа и интерпретации системы взаимосвязанных экономических понятий, включая саму категорию конкуренции. The article notes that the Russian securities market is a fundamental element of the national financial system, which has a significant impact on the country's economic development. The securities market plays a vital role in accumulating investment resources, facilitating the development of the corporate sector, and stimulating overall economic growth. Given the impact of global uncertainty on the development of the modern global economy and the high probability of significant transformations in the Russian financial system, analyzing competitive interactions in the securities market can be considered a relevant area of research. Modern economic thought offers a variety of methods for studying competition in the securities market. Among these, the institutional approach occupies a key place, serving as the basis for the scientific analysis and interpretation of a system of interconnected economic concepts, including the concept of competition itself.
