10.36172/EKONOMISTI.2023.XIX.04.Tamara.Hovakimyan/Hayk.Mnatsakanyan/Firuza.Mayilyan/Suren.Hovakimyan Annotation. For the first time in history, the human mind has become a direct productive force, fostering the development of the "knowledge economy". However, the knowledge use alone does not reflect the true content of the latest scientific and economic revolution, because all the revolutionary transformations since the middle of the 18th century have been characterized by the development of knowledge and scientific innovations. The aim of the article is to explore the revolutionary aspects of the current scientific and economic relations and to reveal the related challenges that need to be addressed. In order to achieve the stated aim, the authors use the methods of quantitative cluster analysis based on the classical principles of isomorphism and entropy. Keywords: isomorphism, entropy, scientific and economic relations, simulation model, panel

On Recognition of Contract Asset and Contract Liability in the Financial Statements

With the publication of the International Financial Reporting Standard (IFRS) 15 “Revenue from Contracts with Customers”, approaches to recognition and methods of measurement of the revenues have changed fundamentally. The standard considers a contract liability as a reference point for accounting coordinates, for transferring control over an asset (goods or services) and determining the moment of recognition of revenue to the seller.

From Baby Boom to Depopulation

Summary  Georgia has witnessed a sharp decline in fertility after obtaining independence, namely, since the beginning of the 1990s. During more than the last three decades the total fertility rate lagged behind the level necessary for the replacement level fertility within four years out of every five. If the mentioned rate had been on the level sufficient for the replacement level fertility (2.1) 272 thousand more children (more by 18.4%) than the actual figure would have been born in Georgia. In other words, the figure would have been substantially higher than the number of individuals currently living in the regions of Abkhazia and Tskhinvali. The main goal of the research is to manifest and analyze the demographic factors which influence the decline in fertility and formulate recommendations by juxtaposing two generations of reproductive age. In addition to the theoretical-methodological issues concerning fertility, the article also makes use of the official demographic

Important Aspects of the Impact of Innovation on Unemployment

Annotation. Today, successful modernization of the economy is achieved through competitive human capital, which is a significant factor of socio-economic development and competitiveness of the country's economy. It is no coincidence that at the beginning of the new millennium, many countries are moving to the "knowledge economy", where special importance is attached to human capital, which has a direct impact on economic indicators, activation of innovative processes and competitiveness. This paper reviews from a theoretical point of view the results of the works of leading economists covering the impact of innovation on employment at the micro and industry level. The effect of innovation on labor demand is not easy to study. Innovation and unemployment are two interrelated economic elements that have been discussed continuously in economic debates since the beginning of the 21st century. The conventional approach views innovation as a tool for economic transformation, resulting in

Dynamics of Government Debt in the World and in Georgia and associated Challenges in the Context of Global Monetary Policy Tightening

Expanded Summary The paper aims to evaluate current trends in public debt around the world, including Georgia. The paper assesses historical background of public debt and the main drivers of borrowing from past centuries to this time. Until the mid-17th century, the mobilization of credit resources by the government was mainly carried out to finance military operations (Stasavage, 2011). From the middle of the 17th century, as a result of the Peace of Westphalia, a relatively peaceful period has established between the European states, and from this period purpose mobilization of credit resources were significantly changed (Yun-Casalilla, O'Brien, 2015). This tendency, on the one hand was caused by the strengthening of state institutions, and on the other hand, by the increase in the demand for public goods due to growing urbanization. As a result, from this period instead of financing wars, public services (water pipelines, road infrastructure, education, etc.) were more actively

Labor market failure induced by the education system in Georgia and Russia

Expanded Summary The study examines the failure in the Georgian labor market caused by the failure of the education system. Additionally, it conducts a comparative analysis of the Russian labor market, thereby facilitating an examination of the labor market dynamics in both countries. The population of developing countries has observed the rapid economic growth and high standard of living in developed nations. Conversely, in economically underdeveloped countries, this indicator changes imperceptibly from generation to generation. The inability of certain countries, such as Georgia, to achieve high economic growth rates and improve the standard of living across generations prompts inquiry. One plausible explanation lies within the labor markets of these nations, specifically in its failures that contribute to an inefficient equilibrium and hinder the prevention of undesirable disequilibrium. Education is considered to hold a pivotal role in the labor market, and a breakdown in the
