As an economist and researcher of macroeconomic models for economic growth, we give importance to labor efficiency to increase the level of production.Efficiency is directly related to education, qualification, specialization, etc.We give importance to the educational part, as we also connect it with the salary and the advantages that education gives to a country as a public good.Being a country in transition makes us appreciate it more and as individuals we invest in it, but generation after generation have tried to get an education and leave the country.This is the reason that education in our country gives the expected results.However, education is also related to the culture received from generation to generation.The purpose of this study is to discover the relationship between the education of the population and the economic growth of the country.The result of the study was surprising.Education in Albania does not make a positive contribution to economic growth.On the contrary, it gives a negative impact.Albania is facing an increasing emigration of educated and professional individuals.This has a negative impact on economic growth as the country has spent on their education while the host country benefits from the contribution.Give a man a fish and he will eat for a day.Teach a man to fish and he will eat for a lifetime."-Laozi(老子) 1 .
While theories predict a positive role of foreign direct investment (FDI) in industrialization (INDU) of developing countries, empirical evidence is mixed due partly to missing role of government in the FDI-INDU nexus.This study seeks to close the gap by investigating how governments may help domestic firms to gain from FDI.The paper focuses on (a) modelling and estimating the impact of governments on INDU through FDI; (b) constructing measures of governments and adopting recently developed indicators for INDU in estimations; and (c) working with a large sample of 98 developing countries over 2000-2020.We conclude that governments indeed matter in capturing benefits from FDI to INDU.The positive effects of host-governments tend to be larger in promoting industrial capacity than industrial share, and larger in boosting manufactured exports than manufacturing output in domestic markets.
Green growth mitigates greenhouse gas emissions and prevents environmental degradation.It creates new growth engines and jobs.A green economy is characterised as a public good.In it, income growth and employment should be driven by public and private investment (UNEP, 2011).The main purpose of this paper is to present a general picture of green growth for the Balkan countries that are not part of the European Union, as well as to evaluate the indicators where these economies have performed better and where they need to intervene in order to improve.To achieve this goal, the paper uses data obtained from OECD.Stat.The OECD Green Growth data source contains specific indicators to monitor improvement through green growth.We selected data for five Balkan countries that are not part of the European Union (Albania, Serbia, Montenegro, Bosnia and Herzegovina, North Macedonia) for the years from 1990 to 2020.The variables used in this paper are indicators of green growth, and we will use them to observe which of the countries taken in the study has progressed more towards green growth.The results of the paper guide governments to design relevant policies in those variables where they have performed the weakest.

Relevance of the research: The relevance of the study is due to the growing demand for passenger transportation in Ukraine and the countries of the European Union in the conditions of demand uncertainty and of the complexity of planning the work of railway operators.Given the fact that the railway transport system is quite inertial, including in the field of passenger transportation, a certain period of time is required for its timely restructuring, when certain factors affect it.The speed of adaptation to new conditions, as well as to their consequences, directly affect the quality of the system.That is why, to obtain the most optimal result, it is necessary to use the data obtained on the basis of prognostication.The purpose of the research: The purpose of the article is to analyze the factors influencing the predictive number of passengers to improve the processes of planning railway routes for the delivery of passengers due to the use of neural networks and minimizing the total cost of transportation.Approaches: Taking into account the specifics of the operation and management of passenger railway transportation is proposed an approach of using a software module based on neural networks as a decision support system regarding planned volumes of passenger traffic for railway operators of Ukraine and other countries.Results: The article presents the results of the software product based on neural networks for the analysis and theoretical generalization of the influence of various factors on the prognostication of passenger flows of transport systems of passenger service, supply chains involving railway transport.The significance of the results: The materials of the article are of practical value for the professional and industrial training of logistics operators, employees of transport companies for scientific and pedagogical workers in order to improve their professional competences.
The purpose of the article is to investigate state measures to address risks in the agricultural sector of Ukraine.Agriculture is an extremely risky field of activity.Uncertainty caused by weather conditions, yields, prices, government policies, world markets and other factors affecting agriculture can cause significant fluctuations in business incomes.There are many environmental factors that can have a negative impact on their activities.The state is objectively obliged to take effective measures to facilitate the recovery of domestic producers from the crisis.The classification of risks that arise in the course of economic activity by economic entities in the agricultural sector of the economy, in particular: production, price, market, financial, institutional risks, human.Institutional risks need, in our opinion, the priority nature of the study as the most radical in terms of possible impacts.Effective assistance to domestic agricultural producers should be the development and implementation by the state of a system of measures to mitigate risks in the agricultural sector of the economy.
As the largest developing country, China has made significant achievements in the battle against poverty in a short period.The key point lies in the targeted rural poverty alleviation policies with Chinese characteristics, for which educational poverty alleviation is the fundamental guarantee.Educational poverty alleviation in rural povertystricken areas is mainly to improve the total amount and quality of rural human resources with the adoption of various education-based human resource development models.The development of rural human resources is conducive to increase the income of rural poverty families and then achieve sustained poverty elimination.In this study, we argue that preschool education could promote economic growth in rural poverty-stricken areas through internal and spillover effects based on human resource development.Internal effect is mainly manifested in its direct effect on improving the quality of human resources, for example, to block the inter-generational transmission of poverty by cultivating high-quality laborers in the future.While, the spillover effect is mainly reflected in the increase in the total amount of human resources, such as transforming the original child caregivers (female and elderly) into productive laborers.Additionally, the teacher training model for preschool education in rural areas could also promote rural human resources development by enabling plenty of surplus laborers to participate in preschool education.To the best of our knowledge, this study is the first to analyze the effects of preschool education on achieving sustained poverty elimination in the post-poverty era from a new perspective of human resources development with the combination of the seventh population census bulletin and the three-child policy recently released in China.Our findings could provide references for other developing countries that are committed to poverty alleviation, and also are conducive to accelerate the process of establishing inclusive preschool childcare and education service system in China to achieve sustainable rural development.
In the conditions of digitalization, along with standard forms of labor organization (individual and collective), other forms are becoming more widespread: remote and home-based work, as well as work on the flexible working hours.The introduction of remote work within quarantine measures, as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, has become a mandatory step in order to preserve the health of workers and ensure uninterrupted work.Itrequires the formation and implementation of a legal mechanism labor relations and control.The purpose of this study has development of scientifically substantiated proposals and recommendations on transformational changes of the mechanism of public control over observance of the legislation on work and health care, to open features of functioning of components of such mechanism in the conditions of remote work.To achieve the goal of the study, the methodological principles and approaches of legal science were used.The analysis showed that in generalthe current legislation provides for a number of powers related to the control of trade unions over compliance with labor legislation and the adoption of measures to protect the rights of workers.A positive innovation is the distinction between remote and home work.In order to improve the legal regulation of trade union powers, it is proposed to improve the legal regulation of the collective bargaining sector, to introduce an effective mechanism for trade unions to join the current system of social partnership acts, which will attract new forces to the trade union movement.
This study investigates the determinants of firm's innovation in Morocco using data from the World Bank Enterprise Surveys among 1,096 enterprises for the year 2019.Using probit regression model, the results show that firm size, formal training, and informal sector competition are the main drivers of product, process, R&D investment, and foreign certification innovation.Furthermore, foreign ownership and the exporter status also significantly impact firms' innovation.The results indicate that small and medium-sized enterprises are less likely to innovate compared to large firms, and firms in the manufacturing sector are more likely to innovate compared to service sector firms.The findings of this study can be used by enterprises to develop effective strategies for innovation and by policy-makers to enhance the competitiveness of the Moroccan economy.
The article deals with the assessment and management of ecological land destruction, taking them into account when determining the market value of land and the formation of green marketing.Based on the research, the authors proposed the use of the concept of ecological land destructions, which reflects any anomalies that occur in the conditions of use of agricultural land.The authors propose a methodology for calculating the integrated coefficient of ecological land destruction, which combines coefficients that take into account the ratio of agricultural land in the landscape, the optimal set of crops in field crop rotation, effective soil fertility, arable land degradation and soil degradation.It is substantiated that the application of the integrated coefficient of ecological destruction has a significant corrective value in the context of determining the market value of land.
Management makes many strategic decisions that have an impact on the performance of the company.Decision-making carried out by management allows for decision-making bias.Our research seeks to gain a further understanding of the managerial phenomenon of myopia, where previous empirical research has been very limited and conceptual.This study aims to analyze the influence of managerial myopia on financial performance in microfinance institutions.This decision-making bias is a concern because of the impact it causes and is often not realized by many managers.Methodology This research uses explanatory research that emphasizes the relationship between research variables through hypothesis testing.Research variables include temporal myopia, spatial myopia, failure myopia, and financial performance.Data collection was carried out using structured questionnaires, and analysis was performed using PLS-SEM with SMART-PLS software.The results showed that managerial myopia (temporal, spatial, and failure) negatively affects financial performance.These results indicate that the biased practices of management may affect the company's financial performance.This study contributes to the financial literature on managerial myopia by analyzing the influence of managerial myopia on financial performance, thereby increasing understanding of the phenomenon of managerial myopia in microfinance institutions, where previous research was still limited.Managers can easily use the indicators we developed to assess managerial myopia as metrics for each type of myopia.These empirical results serve as an impetus for myopic managers to redirect their behavior and help convince sustainability-oriented managers to stay on track.
