Features of the modern crisis in the light of the theory of cycles
Doi: 10.36172/EKONOMISTI.2021.XVII.04.Gurbanov.Tariyel.Musallim.Oglu Summary Modern society strives for constant improvement of the standard and living conditions, which can only be provided by sustainable economic growth. However, long-term economic growth is not uniform, but is constantly interrupted by periods of economic instability. The economic history of the past two centuries provides us with a myriad of examples of the instability of the market economy. Periods of successful industrial development and general economic prosperity have always been followed by periods of recession, accompanied by a drop in production and unemployment. In general, the market economy has a tendency to repeat economic phenomena, which makes it possible to identify the "cyclical" nature of its development. Since the economic crises of the first half of the 19th century, economists have been trying to find the reasons and explain why this happens at regular intervals with stubborn consistency.

Electricity tariff and the concept of its change
Doi: 10.36172/EKONOMISTI.2021.XVII.04.Demur.Chomakhidze Expanded Summary The article mentions that among the many problems of the Central Bank of Georgia is the issue of secure and sustainable energy supply. It is said that energy is the lifeblood of the economy. It depends on human-economic development and strength, population welfare, etc. We can not achieve economic security without achieving energy security; Moreover, it is related to independence and statehood. Of particular importance is the fact that an increase or decrease in energy prices through a chain reaction is immediately reflected in the consumer market. It is therefore not at all surprising that each increase in the consumer tariff on electricity is considered in the society. The article discusses the cause-and-effect aspects of the formation of electricity tariffs and forms an authorial version of its change. The article describes the factors affecting energy tariffs that lead to its change. These include globalizaJournal number 4 ∘ Nata Davlasheridze ∘

And most importantly, they applied their theory in practice and developed a new mechanism for organizing auctions on its basis.

Globalization and international business planting trends
Doi: 10.36172/EKONOMISTI.2021.XVII.04.Rusudan.Kvaratskhelia/Levan.Kikilashvili Resume An important scientific problem of our time is the particular manifestation of modern globalization and the pressure on the social sphere. With real resistance to negative manifestations in the conditions of modern globalization, a social immune system has been formed. The advantages of globalization are becoming increasingly compatible with historical traditions and the mentality of a particular society. The term "global influence", which has been used as an important feature of globalization, has been used in one way or another since ancient times. However, the transition from a concept to a term and then the conceptual use of that term has only recently begun. It should be noted that there are still not many textbooks and dictionaries in this regard. The complex nature and dynamics of globalization pressures as an interdisciplinary object of study significantly hinder the establishment of clear bJournal number 4 ∘ Rusudan Dalakishvili ∘ Nino Tchanturia ∘

Co-working as a new design of work to promote employment
Doi: 10.36172/EKONOMISTI.2021.XVII.04.Irma.Tkemaladze Summary The accelerated digitization process, the uncertainties arising from the Covid-Pandemic and the need to impose restrictions make us think about how the nature of work will soon change, the forms of employment and labor organization, working modes, and, in general, what the word "job" will mean in the future. For some time, the latter meant a social order that divided working time from free time, employment space, and personal space. But with the development of society and technology, the above margin has gradually been erased. The global pandemic has accelerated the process of changes in every field, including this direction. In turn, new Internet communications resources have provided constant and large-scale access to the virtual environment, thus expanding the ability of the employee to perform the functions assigned to him/her remotely. This virtual space, thanks to the concept of shared use, creates new business modelJournal number 4 ∘ Kristine Uglava ∘
Collaboration and Partnership of Local Actors for Local Economic Development
Doi: 10.36172/EKONOMISTI.2021.XVII.04.Kristine.Uglava Expanded Summary The Local Economic Development (LED) is a holistic approach of development based on cooperation and participation of local actors and on integration of local resources. It does not focus on the development of only one sector or on the welfare of one social group. It should be noted that successful LED strategies are not created by just one stakeholder. The uniqueness of LED lies in the fact that it would combine the efforts and resources of all local actors under a common vision of local development to ensure inclusive growth at local level. LED strategies are more effective when LED projects are funded by many local stakeholders, for which the willing of local actors is crucial to work in a collaborative and partnership format. It should be noted that if we give all the responsibility of local development to one local actor, for example only to the local government or the local private sector or just
