In enterprises, when the economic activity increases, it becomes necessary to create an internal control system for the protection of the current accounting and reporting legislation. In order for the internal control system to be fully involved in the management of enterprises, the main element of which is the internal audit, its goals must be realized, awareness raising, which is the goal of the abovementioned paper. Internal audit - this is the internal control of the enterprise, which is organized as a separate service in the enterprise, and their main task is to help accounting workers to perform their duties as efficiently and effectively as possible.

In this paper, the difficulties and opportunities related to commercialization, as well as the role and purpose of universities in this process, are discussed on the example of different countries. There must be mentioned that along with the general defining framework conditions, personal factors such as risk attitude, motivation, self-satisfaction and others play a decisive role in connecting science and business. Scientific fields with special commercial potential in different countries are also discussed in the paper.

Berry culture is one of the most important products of human nutrition, which promotes the prevention of diseases, has healing properties. The nutritional, dietary properties of berries are largely determined by their chemical composition: Sugars, organic acids, vitamins and more. It is noted that for the analysis of the economic efficiency of raspberry production it is necessary to conduct an analysis of constant and variable production costs. Although this culture is very useful and economically profitable, it is not properly developed in Georgia, it is produced in small quantities. It has great potential and can fully meet the demand of the local market. \u0000Finally, we should mention that the production of fruits and berries, in particular raspberries, is of special importance for our country. First of all, it contains substances that are important for human health. In addition, it contains biologically active substances that have a positive effect. From an agricultural point of view, raspberry is a high-yielding crop, the price of which is systematically increasing. It is produced in small quantities in Georgia, it has great potential, it can successfully meet local demand and make the country less dependent on imports.\u0000Special attention should be paid to the issue of export. One of the reasons for this is insufficient knowledge of raspberry farmers, a large number of small gardens, it is necessary to unite them, as well as improve the quality of products, select appropriate varieties, and to find a certified agro-specialist.\u0000Among the agro-technological issues, protection of the raspberry plantation from pests is very important and noteworthy. At the same time, it is necessary to protect the raspberry culture from weeds as much as possible, to carry out proper and timely irrigation, especially with drip irrigation.\u0000It should also be taken into account that raspberries are a perishable product. If it is not delivered to the customer on time, it loses its appearance as a commodity. At the same time, it is difficult to communicate with local supermarkets. They require large quantities of uniform packaged products. Refrigerators are needed for sorting and sorting of products, which is beyond the reach of many farmers.\u0000 It is also desirable to have a laboratory in Georgia that will confirm the environmental purity of raspberries with proper documentation. That is, the produced product must have a certificate that it is grown without poisonous chemicals.\u0000All entrepreneurs who want to import raspberries must take into account the marketing standards of the exporting country, which are different in every country - determining the quality of the produced raspberries, and packaging. Raspberries for export must be whole, undamaged, without any defects. It should not be diseased, rotten, or contaminated with foreign matter eg: soil, mud, chemical elements, or dust, nor should it look ol","PeriodicalId":47220,"journal":{"name":"Economics & Politics","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2023-08-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"90251484","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"经济学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The urgency of these issues is exacerbated by unprecedented challenges for Ukraine and the transformation of the legal field under martial law. The study aims to determine the factors and determinants of the development of human capital in rural areas in Ukraine, considering the experience of the EU countries in the conditions of global challenges. It is substantiated that the policy adopted in the state to ensure the development of rural areas based on the principles of inclusiveness should be based on balanced instruments, methods, and levers capable of minimizing external and internal threats to agribusiness. Essentially, people’s opportunities and abilities for economic and social activities, as well as for their own development, are critical. It has been proven that the determining factor in this process should be human capital. The motivation for economic activity in the village is singled out from personal factors. In its absence, all prerequisites for urbanization are formed. In this context, the upward dynamics of the indicator of the share of the urban population in the EU countries, which can become an obstacle to the development of business in rural areas, was analyzed and revealed. Attention is paid to the prospects of small businesses in rural areas. The relationship between the urbanization indicator and the human development index in Ukraine and the EU countries was studied.","PeriodicalId":47220,"journal":{"name":"Economics & Politics","volume":"71 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2023-07-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"83924858","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"经济学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We argue that political violence induced by elections reduces wellbeing as it provokes emotional reactions like anxiety and fear. There is a lingering effect from political violence that reemerges with new rounds of elections, and that reduces wellbeing. To test this claim, we employ an experimental analysis in Côte d'Ivoire. We motivate political violence via a treatment about the 2020 election, and the proximity of the 2020 election. We find that each has a negative effect on wellbeing. In Côte d'Ivoire, we also consider the direct effect of political violence on wellbeing, and find that it is inversely associated with wellbeing. Finally, we extend the analysis of election proximity to Nigeria during the 2023 election. The results here show that proximity is (i) inversely associated with wellbeing and (ii) that it is directly associated with the expectation of political violence. In all cases, political violence lowers self-assessed wellbeing. We argue that this effect is likely to be greater for women than men, but find that it is generally true for the latter.
