If by the end of 2021 – by the beginning of 2022, there were some positive trends, then the extremely aggravated international geopolitical situation (due to the special military operation conducted by the Russian Federation in Ukraine) had a significant impact on world trade and foreign economic activity of states, including Russia.

The operation of this structure in the field of corporate governance, preparation for litigation, actual participation in arbitration proceedings and administrative proceedings is associated with certain applied problems associated with the lack of a definition of this concept not only in the text of the law, but also in the generalizing documents of the highest court country, the substantive discrepancy between the criteria of this institution proposed by judicial practice and the starting (legal) definition of a corporate conflict, the diversity of criteria that provide, in the author’s opinion, an excessively wide fairway for situational and evaluative judgments in the process of assessing evidence of interested parties in corporate discussions, administrative proceedings and litigation disputes. The author emphasizes the openness and intensity of the corporate conflict as qualifying features of its definition, and the author comes to the conclusion that a corporate conflict cannot be considered simply a disagreement of the parties, but only an active confrontation or dispute between the parties. The author separates the corporate conflict from other types of conflicts: operational, organizational, interpersonal and legal. The paper describes the types of possible participants in a corporate conflict. Referring to specific examples from the sphere of domestic arbitration practice, the author pays great attention to the society itself and stakeholders, as independent subjects of a corporate conflict.

With the evolution of society, technical and technological progress, informatization and other ongoing processes, the requests and needs of the guests of collective accommodation facilities have changed significantly. In this regard, the service in the restaurant at the hotel comes to the fore and in terms of its quality, based on consumer assessments and judgments, guests and visitors actively form a subjective opinion in relation to the entire hotel complex, which, to a large extent, has a multidirectional impact on the results of commercial and financial activities, service market entity.

The purpose of this study is to identify trends in the development of corporate data management systems that provide sustainable competitive advantages of business. In accordance with the goal, the following tasks were set: identify changes in data management approaches that will provide a sustainable competitive advantage; to develop a universal architectural concept of an effective big data management system at all levels of business interaction; to develop recommendations for the transition of business to the proposed architecture of a digital data management platform. In the process of research, the authors of the article used such methods as theoretical (analysis, generalization, synthesis, abstraction, formalization, concretization) and general philosophical analysis (system method, analysis, observation). The authors use legal methods (formal- logical) as the basis for drawing conclusions. The article discusses the issues of managing integration processes of data management in the context of the development of the digital economy. The problems related to the efficiency of corporate data management at the present stage of development are analyzed. It is shown that the influence of corporate data management functions is characterized by significant features, which is why the effectiveness of their management is evaluated ambiguously at the current stage of economic development. Solving these problems requires rethinking the existing approaches to data management, as well as developing a new architecture of the special tools used. As a result of the research, the concept of a multi-level architecture of a corporate data management system (ecosystem) at all levels of business in any field of activity has been developed, taking into account the economic conditions of the country.

Econometric methods, methods of financial statistics were used; regulatory impact analysis and content analysis of regulatory legal acts were carried out. In the course of the work, consumer, environmental and economic characteristics of different types of automobile fuel are systematized. It is shown that the prevalence of both more and less environmentally friendly fuels, both in the past and in the present, is explained primarily by the dominant economic interests of the actors rather than environmental ones. The complexity of coordination of interests in the fuel sphere and the gradual limitation of the possibility of opportunistic influence on the market of coalitions of interests are revealed.

The solution of this problem is provided by the introduction of new technologies implemented by the joint forces of the two headquarters instances represented by the personnel service and the security service. The thesis is argued that the degree of protection from the threat of corruption on the part of both the teaching staff and other officials can be legitimately considered as an additional competitive advantage of any subject of the national higher education or, accordingly, its competitive disadvantage. Possible forms of corruption actions by various categories of employees of an educational institution are specified. Threats to its reputational and property security are determined in case of insufficiently effective counteraction to corruption. The dangers and opportunities associated with the use of various anti-corruption measures already proposed by specialists in the researched field of ensuring personnel security in the field of higher professional education are analyzed. Innovations in personnel work are proposed and argued, which can significantly reduce the likelihood of corrupt actions on the part of teachers and managers of the university. The first of them involves the use of technology based on a collegial approach to assessing the knowledge of the student being examined. The second innovation is aimed at a sharp tightening of control over the “anti-corruption stability” of teachers by the security service of the university. The third innovation applies only to the activities of top managers of the university and their direct subordinates, who are authorized to prepare for the conclusion of any transactions that potentially have a corruption component, and is based on the mechanism of individual bonuses. Finally, the introduction of the fourth innovation should ensure that the faculty members and other university staff are fully aware of the composition of corrupt practices and possible sanctions if they are detected.","PeriodicalId":269031,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Modern Competition","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-08-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121829669","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}
