An Indication of the Sustainable Development of Ukraine in Global Dimensions

Abstract

The urgency of the research. In the early 90s of the last century, economists and scientists attributed Ukraine to the undisputed leaders due to the existing resource potential and predicted its rapid economic growth. Unfortunately, the predictions have not come true: over the last 25 years, Ukraine has lost its advantages on certain indicators. As for the positions, which have been saved, Ukraine should pay the unreasonably high price by the ecological and social conditions deterioration. Target setting. The question is how the other countries have coped with these problems. Moreover, in our opinion, the most valuable experience is the experience of post-socialist countries, which had the same problems as Ukraine had like adaptation problems to the market environment. Recent scientific researches and issues analysis. The most authoritative foreign researchers on the sustainable development problems are Donella H. Meadows, G. Brundtland, М. Ashby, N. Droste, K. Fiorella and others. The most authoritative researchers on the sustainable development problems in Ukraine are Mykhailo Zghurovskyi and his project performers. Uninvestigated parts of general matters defining. However, these researchers did not conduct the investigations of indication of the sustainable development of Ukraine in comparison with the countries of post-socialist camp. The research objective. The survey target is a comprehensive study of Ukraine in the global dimension of sustainable development index: the implementation of post-socialist countries ranking placement in the indices of economic, social and environmental dimension, the index of a sustainability, the index of economic measurement and index of harmonization, the components of quality of life and safety of life; the analysis of placement in these spaces in order to find patterns and distinctive features for a particular group of countries; setting of the countries' placement features in the above mentioned spaces and the comparison of groups with Ukraine. The statement of basic materials. The article deals with the author's research results about Ukraine's place in the sustainable development measuring global index. The valuation is performed by measuring metric indices of sustainable development in the space of three pillars (economic, environmental, and social) in the context of quality and safety of life. Conclusions. Performed the ranking of the post-socialist states' placement in the space of sustainable development index. The analysis of placement in these spaces in order to find patterns and distinctive features for a particular group of countries is made. Peculiarities of the placement in the abovementioned spaces are outlined, and the comparison of these groups with Ukraine is given.

Industry 4.0 and Social Development in the Aspect of Sustainable Development: Relations in EC Countries

“…Although there are different indicators and rankings to measure and monitor progress on sustainability at the macro level, the benefits for stakeholders and policy makers are still limited due to the lack of predictive models (Pérez-Ortiz et al, 2014). The literature studies show that the results of research on various aspects of sustainable development, including its social dimension, are presented above all at the level of individual countries, for example Roszkowska and Karwowska (2014), Roszkowska and Filipowicz-Chomko (2016), Ivanova (2015), Kotykova and Albeshchenko (2017), Prasad (2008), Ray (2008), Chua et al (2010), Bibó (2015), Kumar (2017).…”

Ensuring Food Security in the Context of the Sustainable Development of Agriculture

“…The dilemma of choosing between agrifood production greening and providing enough food has always been problematic in the process of food security research. Thus, according to Kotykova O., and Albeshchenko O. (2017) the country's food security should be based primarily on the adequacy of the physical mass of food to maintain a balanced diet of the world's population.…”
