Abstract

Purpose of the work to analyze the features of the formation and functioning of the healthcare model and to summarize the experience of applying various methods of managing healthcare systems in developed and developing countries. Research method: descriptive research methods, analogy methods, groupings, scientific factual, systematic, comparative and retrospective analysis are used as instrumental methodological methods for studying the problem, but general scientific research methods (derivation, deduction, collection and processing of statistical information). This provides a basis for comparing the development of public health management tools applied in foreign countries. Analyzing the directions of development of health care systems in developed and developing countries, we find that, depending on the existing health care system, the goals, objectives and mechanisms of development can be similar or differ greatly. The search for the best model, carried out in both developed and developing countries, makes it impossible to create a unified approach to building a health care system that will ensure the creation of the most effective health care system. The effectiveness of the functioning of health care systems and the achievement of the goals set to improve people's health are less related to the implementation of specific management activities but are related to the socio-economic conditions of management. Their implementation and the existing healthcare system. This is confirmed by the similar rates of increase in life expectancy at birth in developed countries, despite significant differences in management tools and a natural difference in management tools.

Abstract

The relevance of the results of the presented research is also related to their demand both from investors and issuers and from research scientists. For research scientists, the predictability of profitability or the lack of such predictability is crucial for creating models that would be able to accurately describe risks and profitability in financial markets. The methods and techniques used in the study allow us to determine the general trend of the market movement toward increasing or decreasing its efficiency. For investors, such an assessment of the effectiveness of the stock and bond markets creates a basis for optimizing asset allocation when building portfolio strategies, and for issuers serves as the basis for building a strategy for issuing activities. The subject of the study is the totality of economic relations between stock market participants in the process of assessing its effectiveness and volatility in the Republic of Kazakhstan. The theoretical basis was the results of fundamental research contained in the scientific works of foreign and Russian scientists and presented in the modern literature on the problems of evaluating the effectiveness and modeling the volatility of the stock market and building investment strategies. The scientific novelty of the research lies in the development of theoretical provisions and methodological tools for assessing the effectiveness of the Kazakhstan stock market in modern conditions.

Abstract

The aim of the study is to assess the level of vulnerability of the economy and social sphere of depressed settlements in the example of the regions of western Kazakhstan (Atyrau, Mangystau and West Kazakhstan). The following research methods were used to visualize the data: bibliographic, tabular, and grouping of data. The initial data for 2009-2020 for the study were taken from statistical data of the Bureau of National Statistics, regional departments of statistics, various electronic resources, etc. According to the results of the analysis, indicators of the development of districts in Mangystau, Atyrau and West Kazakhstan regions were obtained, in which depressed and vulnerable territories were identified. The data obtained indicate that in vulnerable areas of Kazakhstan there is significant interregional inequality in terms of the level and quality of life. A number of social indicators of the level and quality of life of the population have huge interregional gaps. The analysis as a whole makes it possible to positively assess the possibilities of the prospective development of these territories within the framework of the historically developed specialization of the economy in the presence of transport flows between cities and regions. At the same time, to outline ways to further diversify their economies in order to get out of the state of depression and vulnerability. The developed methodology was tested on the example of the regions of Western Kazakhstan, which proves the possibility of its application both by government authorities to identify settlements in need of state support and in further research.

Abstract

The main goal of this study was to study social emotional intelligence in male students and female students. The ongoing study is a pilot one. The idea of the study is to reveal the dependence of the level of social emotional intelligence on gender and on the age of students. Social emotional intelligence is represented by three psychological types - extroverts, introverts and ambiverts. The survey was conducted on the basis of the University of International Business named after K. Sagadiev (Almaty, Kazakhstan) among students of the bachelor's level. Within one month, 65 questionnaires were collected. The questions were answered using the MMPI (Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory) extraversion-introversion scale. In this pilot paper, three hypotheses were put forward, of which two were refuted, one was confirmed: The level of social emotional intelligence of extraversion does not depend on the gender and age of the student. The study then used Exploratory Factor Analysis (EFA) to test the validity of the test design. The results showed that the main two factors of the test are (1) factors focused on the internal experiences of students during communication with other people and (2) students' attitude towards public speaking. The social intelligence of an ambivert is higher than that of others, since emotional intelligence includes two sides: understanding one's own and other people's emotions. In the future, it is planned to conduct a main study with an increase in the number of respondents up to 354 students.

Abstract

The most significant pattern characteristic of this set of industries, as a system, is their technological interaction, each of the industries acts as a supplier of raw materials and/or a sales market (multi–raw material system), which allows us to consider the overall system as a complex socio-economic and at the same time spatial phenomenon with multiple characteristics, the study of which involves taking into account the interrelationships between a variety of factors and phenomena, which makes it possible to apply an institutional approach to it, the main purpose of which is – exploring these connections. The paper puts forward and verifies the hypothesis that the basis of each of the industries is the activity of their economic entities, the interaction between which, according to the theory of institutionalism, is regulated by a set of norms and rules and organizations and institutions that control their implementation. The purpose of the work is to assess the infrastructure of agricultural territories as one of the most important factors in creating a food hub. The authors evaluated the data on the social and industrial infrastructure of agro-industrial territories. The article considers the functional efficiency of social infrastructure, economic indicators of the development of the production infrastructure of agricultural territories, the quality of life of the population of rural territories. The novelty of the results obtained consists of identifying the problems of the development of infrastructure indicators and ways to solve them in the short term. The results of the study can be used to develop directions for the integrated development of the food hub, food security of the country as a whole, and improving the well-being of the rural population.

Abstract

The main features of "green" technologies are conservation and enhancement, efficient use of natural resources. Reducing environmental pollution, preserving ecosystems and biodiversity, increasing incomes and employment of the population. it should be noted that the promotion of "green" technologies will ensure the sustainability of the regions, including at the expense of their own economic efficiency. All these factors have a positive impact on the ecological situation of the region. Green technologies were born on the basis of objective prerequisites: as a result of human activity, there was a sharp deterioration in the state of the environment, megacities and industrial zones. In the twentieth century, all spheres of human activity developed at a rapid pace. But with the evolution of modern society, the conflict has escalated between the desire of a person to live with all the possibilities of the city, and the desire of a person-a living being-to be in harmony with nature. Kazakhstan has accumulated good experience in the use of "green" technologies and obtained the first economic results. With their development, the following new concepts have entered our life: "green" investments", green "construction", green "energy, organic agriculture, etc. The widespread introduction of "green" technologies will allow Kazakhstan to enter a new path and ensure balance, as well as ensure the sustainable development of the economy of the regions. This is understandable, because the effective use of the resource can only be ensured by the wider introduction of "green" technologies.

Abstract

The article deals with the problem of financing innovation activities that hinder the development of the innovation system of Kazakhstan. The types of sources of financing for innovative projects are given, the limitations of their use are noted. A feature of innovation-oriented enterprises is a higher demand for external sources of financing, while innovative activity is characterized by a sufficiently high degree of uncertainty and risk, therefore, the multiplicity of sources of financing, flexibility, and adaptability to a rapidly changing external environment are important principles of financing innovative projects. The use of own funds in the development and implementation of an innovative project provides maximum freedom in making managerial decisions. The implementation of innovative projects proves the effectiveness of the use of debt and equity instruments. The methodology of the study is based on a descriptive and comparative analysis of the features of domestic and foreign methods of developing innovative activities and financing innovative projects, which are not based on empirical data, synthesis, and systematic and logical approaches. The modern market economy is characterized by the inevitability of the transition to an innovative path of development, which defines itself as one of the significant factors of accelerating the economic growth of the state, and its technological and socio-economic development, ensuring economic security and competitiveness in the world market. The innovative way of economic development is based on the process of searching, preparing, creating, implementing, and commercializing innovations, i.e., ensuring the transformation of an idea directly into an innovation. The innovative development of the state is based on attracting the necessary investments that ensure economic growth, which is considered by the author of this article. The Republic of Kazakhstan, having a number of direct and indirect methods, can expand its arsenal by applying effective.
