Technological Sovereignty of the Union State of Russia and Belarus in the Context of Achieving the Sustainable Development Goals

DOI: 10.33917/es-6.204.2025.56-63

The article presents the author’s approach to technological sovereignty based on data from the international assessment, conducted by the UN. The author proposes a concept for representing technological sovereignty in the form of three components (structural elements): information and communication security (digital security), infrastructural (logistics) security and scientific-technological security. To assess each component of technological sovereignty it is proposed to use the corresponding indicators, grouped in accordance with the author’s approach. In addition, the article provides the author’s analysis of countries that have achieved Goal 9 of the Sustainable Development based on statistical data, provided by the UN, and the corresponding threshold values for each indicator of the countries under consideration.

Impact of Inflation Expectations of Different Generations of Consumers on Saving Patterns and Strategies when Purchasing Everyday Goods

DOI: 10.33917/es-6.204.2025.84-89

The article identifies the peculiarities of forming inflation expectations and corresponding savings strategies when purchasing everyday goods among different generations of Russians. Generational differences in economic behaviour are studied through methods of comparative, correlation and cluster analysis, as well as by content analysis of qualitative data on the motivation of consumer choice. A clear differentiation of consumer adaptation strategies to inflation and transformation of retail channels under their influence are established. The author recommends segmenting price policies and strengthening personalization of marketing communications, taking into account generational differences in the perception of economic risks, and using adaptive mechanisms for managing inflation expectations based on the intergenerational transmission of consumer preferences to develop effective anti-inflation and marketing strategies.

Role of Nuclear Industry in the Global Energy Transition under the Influence of Exogenous Shocks

DOI: 10.33917/es-6.204.2025.100-107

Over the past five years, significant fluctuations in global nuclear energy production have been observed. From 2015 to 2022 its production growth slowed down and in 2022 a decline in production volumes was even observed. As a result, the share of nuclear energy in the global energy balance has significantly decreased over the past 20 years. However, the record energy price increases in 2022, coupled with climate change pressures, have prompted a number of countries to recognize the need to revive and develop the nuclear industry. The article analyses the consequences of the 2022 price crisis for the energy sectors of leading European countries, as well as the reasons that caused the change in the European Parliament’s position in respect of the nuclear energy. The main factors influencing development of the global nuclear energy at the present moment and determining its possible future development are identified. In addition, the article discusses the main players in the global nuclear energy market, examines position of Russia and Rosatom State Corporation therein and identifies new market segments with potentially high levels of competition in the nearest future.
