The article aims to determine socio-economic causes of the emergence of an oligarchy and its functions in the Ukrainian economy in the context of postmodernism. The essence of postmodernism is worldview-philosophical, economic and political systems collapse. This is a kind of opposition to modernism. As for the economy during postmodernism, namely its formation, the changes relate to the view of social relations and human activity. So, oligarchic Ukraine is trying to solve its problems personally. However, a holistic view on the concept of oligarchy is falling apart, since the dominance of financial and industrial groups in the economy of Ukraine monopolizes entire economic sectors, and authorities of different levels in different ways protect not so much the interest of the Ukrainian people, but the interest of its richest layer. Most Ukrainian oligarchs were able to earn their capital in the 1990s, using any opportunity. It was quite cheap redistribution of state property, friendship with the authorities, seizure of someone else’s property (raiding). At the same time, oligarchs successfully used imperfect legislation. They simply rewritten it “for themselves”, repeatedly using “substitute” politicians. It is concluded that at the present stage of Ukraine’s development, the oligarchy has not only ceased to fulfill its stabilizing function, but also turned into the main obstacle to modernization processes. Therefore, the current civilization choice of Ukraine, in particular, is important paradigm of comprehension and strategy of action.

As a starting hypothesis is the fact of non-universality of the existing mechanisms of investment strategy formation is accepted, which necessitates their improvement and adaptation taking into account the variability of the environment and current tendencies of development of international economic relations. The purpose of the work was to analyze theoretical provisions and develop practical recommendations for improving the efficiency of the enterprise investment strategy formation as a international economic actors. The most important objective factors are the effective formation and use of financial resources in ensuring the development of an enterprise at the present stage of international business operation, which is primarily related to the use of new systems and methods of managing these processes. Considerable influence on the market situation of instability factors is taken into account. It is proved that under these conditions the role of investment strategy, which provides priority directions of enterprise development in international business, is significantly increasing. One of the important steps in the process of developing an investment strategy is to analyze the financial position of the company. The potential of tools and methods of economic and mathematical financial analysis is revealed for forming an effective investment strategy of enterprises - subjects of international business. It is concluded that the investment strategy of the enterprise - international economic actors is described by a balanced system of integral and integrated indicators of investing capital expediency in the investing object, which reflects the pro-spects of development, efficiency of resources using and assets, their liquidity, solvency status and financial stability as well as some informal aspects of the enterprise. Cluster analysis, matrix analysis, taxonomic analysis have been presented as the most promising and effective ones. The methods of their use for practical application in investment management are present-ed. Keywords: investment strategy, international economic relations, cluster analysis, matrix analysis, taxonomic analysis.

The work is aimed at analyzing the state and prospects of implementing the export potential of the agrarian sector of Ukraine, the structure of which is based on the principles of transition from the abstract to the concrete. The study begins with the definition of factors that shape the export opportunities of the agrarian sector, namely: the quality of the factors of agricultural production (objects of labor, means of labor); the branch structure of agricultural production; the state of the systems of certification and quality control of export products; the diversification of markets; the access to financial resources; the level of the marketing support of export; the mechanisms of the realization of the state export policy; the state of development of agro-logistics. It has been proved that in the short term, the production components are not decisive in the processes of using and expanding the existing export potential of the national agrarian sector. In the modern conditions the state of logistics infrastructure is coming to the forefront. In the general problem of agro-logistics, the following levels are distinguished: micro-, meso-, macro-, and supranational. In each of them we have identified "the bottlenecks" of the process of building up export potential from the point of view of agro-logistics. The ways of increasing the export potential of the agrarian sector in Ukraine have been proposed. These include: the development of container transportation sphere; the creation of effective mechanisms for directing funds of united territorial communities for the development of regional logistics infrastructure; the reform of Ukrzaliznytsia (the Ukrainian rail road); the development of alternative variants of supply chains by improving the infrastructure of the automobile and river transport; the expansion of the representation of Ukraine in the world governmental and non-governmental organizations in order to protect the national trade interests; the formation of the system of training personnel capable of adapting to changing market conditions. Keywords: logistic approach, agrarian export strategy, export potential, agro-logistics, agrarian infrastructure, supply chain.

Статтю присвячено дослідженню особливостей копінг-стратегій осо-бистості, що зазнала впливу травматичної ситуації. Показано, що копінг-стратегіїособистості є ефективним ресурсом подолання наслідків травми. Підкреслюється,що дієвість опанування складної ситуації проявляється в узгодженості копінг-стратегій з факторами вияву життєздатності та ресурсів життєстійкості особис-тості. Зауважено, що травматичні події спричиняють активацію ресурсів жит-тєздатності, які виконують реабілітаційну функцію щодо збереження та від-новлення психологічного здоров’я особистості. Емпірично встановлено, щоконфронтаційність, готовність до ризику в поєднанні з готовністю відстоюватиактивну громадянську позицію є адекватною щодо революційної ситуації стра-тегією подолання та нейтралізації зовнішніх руйнівних факторів, однак такастратегія може спричиняти водночас підвищений ризик емоційного вигоряння.Копінг-стратегію “втеча-уникнення” розглянуто як певний вияв емоційноїригідності, що може перешкоджати адекватній когнітивній оцінці ситуації таінтеграції травматичного досвіду свідомістю, а також уповільнювати процесинормальної життєпобудови. Наголошується, що особливої уваги з поглядупсихологічних інтервенцій потребує вікова категорія громадян віком 35–45 років.Зроблено висновок, що пошук соціальної підтримки є універсальним копінг-ресурсом подолання наслідків травматичних подій, а середній і високий рівеньсформованості компетенцій життєстійкості зумовлює високу ефективність ви-користання проблемно орієнтованих копінг-стратегій.
