Awareness of the essence of modern global and planetary crisis of civilization makes it possible to make sure that the planet Earth, which on the basis of classical approaches is traditionally perceived as a financial and economic one, should be considered methodologically as a planetary civilizational social system. Outstanding thinkers of our time, scientists from many highly developed countries have unequivocally proved that its main cause is the spiritual decline of society, the decline of the holistic consciousness of the subjects of society, orientation towards the definition of one-sided logical-mental intelligence, the loss of moral values and responsibility for the creation of man, the growing distrust to public administration institutions. All this emphasizes the inconsistency of a qualified and competent search the directions and mechanisms for overcoming the planetary-civilizational crisis of society. Therefore, the primary task of planetary civilization development is the need for a radical change in worldview, which would be based on life values: protecting people’s health, education, as the acquisition of new knowledge, peaceful coexistence, the dignity of man as such, trust and harmony in relations between people and people with nature. From a scientific point of view, this cardinal change in the worldview consists in the transition from target to value rationality based on the deepening of spiritual and moral factors that should set the vector of anti-crisis environmentally friendly thinking regarding all management decisions in the field of practical actions to reform national and global economic systems.","PeriodicalId":102651,"journal":{"name":"Socio-Economic Research Bulletin","volume":"88 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-11-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134506093","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The purpose of the article is to study the state of the recreational and tourist sphere of Ukraine, to reveal its role in ensuring human development and to propose practical recommendations for increasing human potential through the introduction of sustainable socially-oriented affordable tourism and recreation. The study was conducted using a comprehensive methodological approach based on the human-centric paradigm, which involves knowledge of economic phenomena and processes, taking into account the impact of social relations and other non-economic factors. The essence of the concepts of human potential, sustainable development of tourism and recreation is highlighted, the refined definitions of key concepts are proposed. The socio-economic factors of creation and effective use of human potential, the role of the recreational and tourist sphere are highlighted. Based on the analysis of statistical data, it is shown that Ukraine has sufficient potential for the development of recreation and tourism, but it is developing slowly due to political and socio-economic instability, low investment attractiveness and low incomes, has an insufficient impact on the economy and social sphere. This was, in our opinion, one of the reasons for the decline of Ukraine’s position in the world ranking of countries on the human development index from 45 in 1990 to 88 in 2019. The conceptual position on the need to expand the social base of progressive transformations by moving from social dialogue to effective tripartite social partnership and the restoration of the previously disbanded National Social Partnership Council (NSPC) as a permanent body at the state level and similar bodies at sectorial, regional and local levels is substantiated. Recommendations that will help accelerate the sustainable development of the recreational and tourism sector and increase its social performance are proposed.","PeriodicalId":102651,"journal":{"name":"Socio-Economic Research Bulletin","volume":"14 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-11-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127830470","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The mechanism of increasing the productive forces of labor in the countryside, its transformation, the current state and the problems are shown. It is demonstrated that the expansion of the national internal and external market occurs through the expansion of socialization processes in a form of a regulated market. Particular attention is paid to issues of both already resolved problems in the countryside, and new ones, as well as ways of their implementation. It is noted that the dynamic motion of China’s economy since 1978 preserves the best developments from the ideas of Sun Yatsen, Mao Zedong, Deng Xiaoping before Xi Jinping. It is clearly demonstrated that a dynamic growth in agricultural production, followed by industrial production in the country over the past two decades, has transformed China into the world’s leading country. It is emphasized that China, occupying a leading position in the world in the production of many types of agricultural products, is currently focused on the need to increase domestic consumption to make the economy less dependent on exports in the future.

The criteria that underlie the classification of ratings are analyzed. It is noted that in the economic literature, in most cases, it is carried out by rating agencies and companies. It is established that the rating process, as a business, has not only a methodological, but also a certain moral component. The regulatory element of rating agencies and features of their national and international rating scales are studied. A set (system) of national rating scales are determined, which provides the most complete and objective assessment of the issuer’s creditworthiness. The ratings of international rating agencies, which are assigned, usually, on two scales: international and national, are studied. It has been proven that changes in ratings play an important role for transactions with interest rate risks, as information for investors in decision making. The main methods of rating are established, which are largely closed. The leading credit ratings of international agencies, which are used by portfolio investors in decision-making, including country and regional ratings, are named.
