“…D. White -an expert in Russian liberalism studies -derives similar conclusions on the empirical expression of the Russian liberalism and provides a possible explanation why the things are like they are: "Russian political culture is incompatible with notions of liberalism and democracy" (White, 2013). Still, the multitude of D. White's papers provides distinct and clear vision of the matter in focus, as well as initiates an intense discussion that resulted in E. Chebankova's conclusion that Russian liberalism is a family of ideologies rather than an integral standalone ideologyneatly according to Gray's attitude towards it.Just as liberal regimes cannot be identified by a range of essential properties, so liberal theorists and thinkers are not alike in having common ideas (Kubak et al, 2018). It is a basic error to search for the essence of something as heterogeneous and discontinuous as the liberal tradition (Gray, 2000).…”

The article studies contemporary Russian liberal establishment from the point of view of the main actors' propensity to consolidate. The authors identify distinguishing features of liberalism in Russia that determine the possible trends of cohesive interactions between the key actors and conclude that the main driver of consolidation is the protest and opposition to the current regime which is supported by the majority of population who tend to stigmatize the liberal activists due to that reason. The evidence of relatedness fluctuation is derived using the linkage index, introduced by the authors. The index is calculated using the results of actors' discourse analysis based on social networks data (Twitter): mutual mentions and their contextual sentiments are taken to weigh pairs of actors regarding their unanimity or contradiction. Dynamic interpretation of calculated indexes of consolidation in the two broad periods, different in levels of information pressure from the mainstream media, provides evidence of consolidation change, and allows to identify key drivers of cohesion and attributable followers. The authors apply social network analysis techniques to verify the findings and to determine tiers of key liberal actors and their clusters. Concluding remarks provide interpretation of empiric study results and links to further development of consolidation research methodology.

“…There is also no consensus among scientists regarding what determines the investment attractiveness of a region. The scientists believe that investment attractiveness can be determined by favorable investment conditions in the region (Asaul, Pasyada, 2008); prospective effectual demand for investment in the region (Pronin, 2000); perception of the investment project by a prospective investor (Kotukov, 2008);the rate of investment in the region's fixed capital assets (Roizman, Shakhnazarov, Grishina, 2001;Kuzmin, Chepik, 2014;Kubak et al, 2018); a degree to which the region's economic system meets the investors' interests (Yakupov, Yarullin, 2010); measures taken in the region encouraging investors to make a decision to invest funds (Askinadzi, Maksimova, 2017); the investor's choice regarding opportunities and prospects for business development in a particular territory (Matveeva, Chernova, 2017;Mura et al 2017); the overall economic situation in the region (Vidyapina, Stepanova, 2007); the idea of feasibility and effectiveness of investment in the region's investment projects, the idea of the investment yield (Aksenova, 2010;Vologdin, 2017).…”

Recent development of the Russian economy is largely determined by strengthening of interregional socio-economic differentiation. The uneven development of spatial socio-economic systems, in turn, makes it possible to talk about the so-called "prosperous" and "problem" regions. The problem or depressed regions are, as a rule, characterized by relatively poor adaptation to existing business conditions, lower competitiveness of industries operating in these regions, an increase in unemployment rates, negative social phenomena, and others. It should be noted that the Russian scientists studying the regional economy have already developed a list of indicators that allow one to identify the depressed regions quite accurately. These indicators include the industrial production index, unemployment rate, per capita GRP, and per capita industrial output. In accordance with the indicators and on the basis of the statistical data of recent years, ten constituent territories of the Russian Federation are classified as depressed regions: Ivanovo Region, Oryol Region, Smolensk Region, Pskov Region, Volgograd Region, Chuvash Republic, Kirov Region, Ulyanovsk Region, Kurgan Region, Altai Krai. To maintain the upward trend in the Russian economy, it is necessary to ensure an increase in investment, including investment in the economy of the depressed regions, which requires enhancing their investment attractiveness. The traditional measures of a general spectrum, which should contribute to enhancing the investment attractiveness of any territory, do not usually produce the desired result in these regions. In this respect, there is an urgent need to study the factors of investment attractiveness of the regions in order to identify the most significant ones. This will make it possible to develop and justify the proposals regarding the government investment policy, which can ensure a considerable investment in flow into the economy of the problem territories.

“…Intuition is lack of social studies result in lack of abilities to make decisions in uncertain situations • Case studies, which require specific knowledge in finance, knowledge in accountancy and overall economic education is being resolved with much less enthusiasm and mutual discussion if to compare with cases on organizational culture, human resource management etc. It shows that financial and economic knowledge appears to be rather frequently weak (Tkacova et al 2018) and therefore difficult to apply.…”

In a contemporary complex environment, sustainable development of SMEs and large companies considerably depends on effective and efficient leadership. Fostering of business leadership abilities at contemporary universities could not be imagined and designed without application of case study teaching techniques. This paper is devoted to the case studies teaching peculiarities and their implementation in the teaching process. At first, the format of a business case study suitable for fostering leadership abilities is discussed. Second, business case studies teaching techniques are presented, and the opportunities of leadership development are provided. Insights about case studies limitations and their reasons are formulated in order to shape up the picture. The author relies on over 10 years of business case studies-based teaching experience that can be used in studying leadership.
