INSTITUTIONALIZATION OF MEDIA COMMUNICATIONS IN SOCIAL POLICY REPRESENTATION
Purpose of the study: In modern conditions, communications play a decisive role. The information has become a “product” not only in the economic and political areas, but also in quite unexpected institutions of the post-industrial society (humanitarian, social or public, and cultural). In the article, the authors present the role of media communications in the representation of social policy and analyze experience gained from the interaction of media communications and social policy.
Methodology: In the study’s practical section based on expert monitoring of articles in the printed media and the Internet, the authors analyze possibilities and prospects of institutionalization of media communications in social policy representation.
Main Findings: Besides, in the study, the authors define a list of priority social topics in the publications under analysis and various aspects of media activities that influence the probability of representation of social policy by media communications. In the study, the authors indicate requirements for the responsible social position of a media professional and present policy and role diversity of media communications in the course of institutionalization

Geopolitical policy dilemma for Eastern Partnership countries: democracy and security
The Eastern Partnership (EaP) was established in 2009 to formalize the EU's interactions
with Armenia, Azerbaijan, Belarus, Georgia, Ukraine, and Moldova. The EU's goal was to
strengthen cooperation, play a role to these states' economic, political, and social
development, and enhance stability in the region. However, the Kremlin was concerned
regarding EU initiatives to establish its own influence in the region in the CIS space: to
deprive Russia of the status of the prioritized partner of some of the six aforementioned
countries through the EaP and to create an alternative to Russia's integrationist strategies in
the CIS.
The research study seeks to highlight geopolitical policy dilemma for Eastern Partnership
Countries and underline policy tools employed by the regional actors over 6 program
countries by attempting to identify an answer to the question that why the promotion of
democracy which is an important element of EU’s value-driven foreign policy triggers
conflict of interest with Russia which leads to the security challenges for these 6 countries.
Furthermore, it identifies the main motivations for the EU-Russia involvement in the region
and clarifies different approaches to policymaking. The qualitative research method of data
analysis, particularly document analysis is used in this research study to clarify where
Russia's and the EU's objectives intersect. On the other hand, the research by analyzing the
EaP countries individually examines the domestic implications from the perspectives of
democratization and security challenges in which the regional actors directly or indirectly are
playing important roles. The thesis is based on neoliberal theory reflecting on the research
question. Particularly offensive and defensive realism explains the appropriate reaction to the
security dilemma of the EaP countries. Furthermore, one of the key emphasis is placed on
the issue of the security dilemma, how it demonstrates on the challenges in the EaP countries,
and how it characterizes the geopolitical situation for the EaP. As a result, the research argues
on the geopolitical policy dilemma of the EaP countries inferred from the conflict of interest
between Russia and the EU.https://www.ester.ee/record=b5508001*es

The Adirondacks as a Compass of Ecological Morality
This work is an amalgamation of the subject matter of my courses over my time at Union, and my passion for the more hidden side of the value nature presents. In this paper, I will build a chronology of the ways in which our symbiotic relationship and comprehension of the natural world around us has shifted and evolved over time. Modern-day practices and policy will be examined to get a measure of how changes in our actions have reflected these changes in mindset, where they come from culturally or anthropologically, and whether or not our modern moral ecological imperative is in alignment with these world views

The Impact of Natural Resource Exploitation on Balanced Development with Modified Reproduction Scheme Based on Supply Chain Management
In the scientific work has been modified the impact of the exploitation of natural resources (non-renewable oil and gas reserves) on balanced economic development and been researched Karl Marx's production scheme. Marx's simple and extensive reproduction scheme based on supply chain management, rather I-capital sector was divided into 3 parts for physical, natural and human capitals, and at first, theoretically modified and analyzed added value from the exploitation of natural capital (oil and gas reserves). The literature review, results, and statistical figures of carried out necessary research have been substantiated. The result of analysis proved that the added value generated from the exploitation of oil and gas resources mainly in the consumer sector has created additional demand and as a result, have emerged the interdisciplinary demand and supply sequences. In the scientific work carried out analysis of the results obtained from the model of realization and are given specific directions and calculations of creating balanced development of revenues received from exploitation oil and gas resources
