The study investigates the stages and features of privatisation in Ukraine. it describes the impact and consequences of privatisation on the economic potential of the country. The main features and problems of the privatisation process in Ukraine are identified. Theoretical and practical analysis of the consequences of privatisation of state property on the innovative development of Ukraine's economy has been carried out. It was established that the withdrawal from state ownership by means of privatising enterprises is a challenge that negatively affects innovation activity, because it is mainly associated not with the creation of "know-how" to ensure economic development, but with encroachment on material resources states with the motive of enrichment, which leads to the cessation of development and introduction of existing (often imported) technologies and, as a consequence, threatens the internal innovation potential and national security of the country. The proposed ways to reform the privatisation process are aimed at mitigating the consequences of unfair privatisation to strengthen the competitiveness of the national economy, its innovative development and improve the social situation of citizens of Ukraine.

Abstract. The article examines the European and Ukrainian practices, on cluster initiatives as a special development of economic projects. It is noted that in connection with the development and spread of globalization processes in the world increases competitiveness in the market and enterprises need to introduce new ways to strengthen the competitiveness and development of their production capacities. It is determined that the cluster is a stable system of enterprises and institutions associated with the production of innovative products, using the achievements of self-developing research institutions, training and education of research organizations and commercial structures, stimulating entrepreneurial activity in science and commercialization of progressive technologies. Emphasis is placed on the fact that the trends of the new cluster economy cause the following processes: Globalization and localization of business, production, capital, as processes of movement to integrated actions, targeted involvement of the country’s potentials, industries, priority resources. Primary sphere of exchange, increasing influence of financial authorities, financial oligarchy, financial markets as an element of supercontrol, hyper-power, centers of influence on changes in the reproduction of national products. Rapid information progress and sustainable priorities of comprehensive intellectualization of labor in all spheres of human activity, capacity building of the knowledge system and its tools of influence on the new man, etc. It is noted that world practice shows that when a cluster is created, all the industries within it begin to support each other. Competitive suppliers contribute to the development of consumer industries in the country. They provide them with technology, stimulate the development of common factors of production, and generate new producers. A single industry, competitive on the world market, can create a number of new interconnections, providing access to skilled labor, taking advantage of family diversification, or encouraging the emergence of new divorces. Overview that the development of cluster economy will contribute to the development of territorial communities and infrastructure of the regions, stimulate demand for education, now going through hard times, stop the outflow of human capital with subsequent employment in Ukraine, as well as stimulate innovation among young people, help improve their competitiveness in the global economic and political arena.

Анотація. Визначено пріоритети економічного зростання в сучасних соціально-економічних умовах.Проаналізовано стан і динаміку основних показників національної економіки з моменту проголошеннянезалежності до сьогодення та зазначено складність і непослідовність процесів економічного зростан-ня, структурних перетворень і соціально-економічного розвитку країни. Установлено, що рівень вало-вого внутрішнього продукту порівняно з 1991 роком України значно погіршив економічне становищеу світі, зокрема, валовий внутрішній продукт України з 21 країни світу впав до 56-го рангу. Установ-лено, що це викликано низкою проблем, таких як зниження національного виробництва і добробуту,зниження інвестиційної привабливості, приватизація, погіршення соціально-демографічної ситуаціїв державах, збільшення зовнішніх і внутрішніх фінансових зобов'язань країни, посилення регіональнихдиспропорцій у соціально-економічному зростанні тощо. Основною причиною такої ситуації є неефек-тивність системи державного управління національною економікою, політична нестабільність і неефек-тивне управління країною. Визначено, що Україна має всі ресурси та можливості для сталого еконо-мічного зростання. Однак для цього потрібний виважений підхід до визначення і формування шляхівдержавного управління розвитком країни, заснований на виявленні джерел і факторів зростання. Це тірегіональніфактори, які найбільше відповідають особливостям здійснення змін у вітчизняній еконо-міці з урахуванням її адміністративно-територіального устрою України, галузевої спрямованості, іс-торичного досвіду господарювання і сучасних вимог світового господарства. Запропоновано орієнтиривдосконалення державного управління, які мають базуватися на засадах теорій регіоналізму, оскількисаме регіони мають внутрішні ресурси зростання, уміле використання яких дозволить їм стати драйве-рами національного розвитку.Ключові слова: національна економіка, чинники зростання, валовий внутрішній продукт, національневиробництво, валовий регіональний продукт, регіональний розвиток.Формул: 0; рис.: 0; табл.: 3; бібл.: 12.

The relevance of the problem under study lies in the fact that the criminal liability of juvenile criminals is one of the most difficult areas of criminal law. Minors, given their physiological, mental, and social characteristics, are considered a separate category of criminals, being one of the most vulnerable segments of the population. Therefore, juvenile delinquency manifests itself not only in causing harm to public relations, the personality of the victim, but also directly to the minor, forming antisocial behaviour in the latter's mind. Considering the above, the problem of the specific features of the criminal liability of minors remains relevant today. The purpose of the study is to analyse the criminal liability of minors from an international legal standpoint, as well as to carry out a comparative analysis of the features of the regulation of criminal liability of minors in different countries of the world. To fully explore the subject matter of the study, a set of general scientific and special methods of cognition was used. In particular, the study used the methods of scientific knowledge, system analysis, scientific abstraction, generalisation, comparison, analysis and synthesis, grouping, formalisation, historical and logical analysis. For example, the leading method was the comparison method, which helped to compare the specific features of practice in other countries of the world in criminal liability of minors. The study analyses the features of the criminal liability of minors, in particular the minimum age of criminal liability, differences between countries in this regard, as well as general international standards.
