It is becoming more difficult for the economy to enter the predicted development trends under conditions of the global systemic crisis, which has become a source of serious problems for countries that are deeply integrated into the world economy. The use of wellknown decision-making mechanisms for a wide range of problems, such as unsustainable consumption and production patterns, poverty and hunger, gender inequality, inequalities between countries and within countries, ecosystem disruption and a number of other equally important problems deserve additional reflection and analysis. In the context of the issues covered in the article, it is especially relevant to analyse the simultaneous impact on the economy of sustainable development mechanisms, based primarily on the objectives of declarative character and practice-oriented economic sanctions. The interrelation of diametrically opposed instruments of global influence that regulate the "scale" of the modern world economy in an attempt to improve its stability is described in the article. Economic sanctions and instruments of sustainable development, methods of corporate management, direct the modern international institutional mechanism to ensure the stability of economic development and sustainable economic growth. In this regard, the application of both sanctions and mechanisms for sustainable development is getting more and more justified. The authors conducted a systematic analysis of corporate economics and principles of sustainable development against the impact of sanctions; identified the problems of sustainable development caused by the introduction of sanctions that make it difficult to achieve the sustainable development goals in the longer term. Possible ways to solve the identified problems are suggested. We studied the "sanctionsliving standard, life quality" relation for the BRICS countries in the period of sanctions against Russia and China. We proposed possible solutions for the problems identified.

Future of the global economy depends more and more on possibilities and restrictions of innovative development. In the classical interpretation economic development is limited by non-renewable nature of a significant part of the natural resource potential and assimilation abilities of the environment. In opposition, it’s safe to say that the impact of innovative-technological factors, based on scientific, educational and information revolutions, powered by the synergic effect of the partnership of civilizations, is rising. The aggravation of this global contradiction forces countries, regions and enterprises around the world to look for additional ways to increase competitiveness and efficiency. One of the possible ways to solve this problem is the development of cluster policy – both on the part of the state and on the part of business, large multinational companies. The article analyzes the possibility of formation of technology of innovative development of the region through the competent implementation of cluster policy. The authors conducted a systematic analysis of the effects of clustering (localization), concentrated in the field of high-tech industries, identified problems of their development, including those in the context of globalization.

Research background: Global competition constantly sets new goals for each state in the field of economic security. The globalization process covers all new areas of activity and technology. To ensure economic security, in addition to information and financial technologies, innovative technologies are joining. In order to manage innovative development, scientific and methodological approaches are necessary, which is the current background of this work. Purpose of the article: The purpose of the study is to analyze and evaluate the use of innovative technologies to ensure the economic security of Russia in the context of globalization changes. The objective of the study is a comparative assessment of the dynamics of innovative development of Russia and the leading countries at the global level. Methods: As a scientific and methodological approach to monitoring and analyzing the level of development of innovative processes to ensure economic security, based on a study of available statistical sources, it is proposed to use indicators - Global Innovation Index (GII) 2019. Findings & Value added: Globalization and economic security affect all aspects of the economy. Economic security can be considered as a process of maintaining a state, the signs of which correspond to economic security in the context of globalization changes. Global indices of innovative development make it possible to assess the level of development of modern processes in the field of economic security and determine strategic priority development vectors in the future in order to strengthen the country’s economic positions and competitiveness on a global level.

Purpose: To share the experience in regulation of radiation safety and protection of workers involved in management of the spent nuclear fuel (SNF) and radioactive waste (RW), as well as radiation protection of the population and environment in the vicinity of sites for temporary storage at Andreeva Bay on the Kola Peninsula. Material and methods: Spent fuel from Russian nuclear powered submarines has been stored at shore based facilities for more than 20 years, notably at Andreeva Bay. The storage facilities were for some years poorly maintained and a significant fraction of the fuel that is still in store at the site wais damaged. Over the last years, hugemuch work has been done to improve the technical infrastructure and prepare for removal of the SNF from the temporary stores, management of existing RW. Results: This paper presents progress with projects of the FMBA of Russia and NRPA cooperation for regulation of radiation safety and protection. During the researches, the following issues were addressed: radiological threat assessment to identify the priority directions of regulation; detailed analysis of the radiation situation on sites, at the territories and nearby the sites; radiation control and monitoring of the environmental conditions; development of the computer maps and geo-information system; emergency preparedness and response; improvement of radiation safety culture; etc. Based on the received results of monitoring and assessment of the current risks, site-specific regulatory documents have been developed for the bodies and institutions under the FMBA of Russia involved in the activities to control the facility. Those documents include the requirements for: radiation protection of workers and population; personal dose monitoring; the RW management including the very low level RW; implementation of the environmental monitoring; radiation monitoring nearby the Andreeva Bay SevRAO facility; and remediation of the sites as remediation criteria and regulations. The next stage of work is to carry out the regulation of large-scale removal of SNF during 2017–2021 and its subsequent transfer to Mayak PA, and operations to bring the infrastructure of the site into the hsafe conditions, i.e., ecological remediation of the site – by 2025. Lessons learnt from this work are being used in support of improved international recommendations and guidance on how to address legacy issues. Conclusion: The experience accumulated during regulation of the remediation process of the former Naval Coastal Technical Bases, has helped to identify new relevant areas of improvement of the regulatory supervision at nuclear legacy sites. The study of potential hazard of radiation exposure to the personnel during technological operations of SNF and RW management is very important issue. In this light, the regulator in cooperation of the operator should develop some effective and efficient activities for dose monitoring. When dealing with the protection of the population and environment, a methodology of comprehensive radiation and chemical monitoring should be developed and models of radiation and chemical risks should be improved taking into account features of contamination of the site under remediation. An important link of the social focus of the regulator and the operator is to improve strategies of public communications near legacy sites under remediation.

The article discusses the basic principles of the implementation of the transition from a linear economy to a circular economy model. The article summarizes the existing problems that require solutions to create new jobs, increase economic growth, and create a balance between the economy, environment and population. The authors present examples of building a circular economy model in foreign countries. The importance of the tasks of implementing and promoting the circular economy was revealed, thanks to the involvement of all participants in the society in this process and the motivation for companies and investors. Effective tools for moving society towards a resource-efficient closed-cycle economy, increasing energy efficiency, energy conservation and reducing the energy intensity of the gross domestic product, due to the entry into a competitive level of renewable energy sources are investigated. The introduction of digital technologies and artificial intelligence in automated accounting of resource consumption, as well as the improvement of accounting rules will create opportunities for the end user to manage resource consumption taking into account the principles of a circular economy. The authors' study emphasizes that circular economy products and services should minimize resource use and promote reuse, recovery and recycling of materials in the future, leveraging existing product policy instruments, further support for the repair sector, improved design for reuse, and high-quality packaging recycling. The authors in the article propose to legislate the subsidizing of enterprises participating in the circular chain and subsidizing innovative developments in the field of the circular economy in the Russian Federation.
