Abstract
This article discusses the possibility of reviving the phenomenon of “the decline of thingness”, noted by N.A. Berdyaev regarding the issue of technology in the new problematic context of epistemological and existential development of media reality. Berdyaev believed that modern technology brings destructive effects on traditional communities, nevertheless, this destructive impact is considered a productive force of technology and not a negative one. Decomposing inorganic and organic bodies, technology keeps the liberated energies on a new level in the form of organized bodies. These energies are free from thingness and open to direct experience, revealing to man the way out of the phenomenal world. In the long term, technology is capable of creating a reality that will ensure involvement with creative energies, which means liberation from space, time, objectification, and finally, from death. This is not just a question of digitizing experience and related changes, but also of the world that can be discovered with this experience. Using the language of Russian religious philosophy, Berdyaev characterized the capabilities of future technology dualistically, and in fact answered the questions posed by modern media philosophy. This questions regard the ontology of media reality, and the concepts of “creativity”, “bestialism”, “anthropogeny”, “personalistic revolution”, “organized bodies”, “machine eschatology” are revived in media reality analytics.

Abstract
The views of P. A. Sorokin in the context of sociocultural determination of the socio-economic development of society are analyzed. The author proves the special role of the ideas under consideration in the development of economic thought of the twentieth century, their succession to the "Russian religious renaissance" and Russian economic science, and also describes their fundamental differences from modern economic liberalism, which they definitely respond to. Despite some problematic and controversial ideas of sociocultural dynamics concept of P. A. Sorokin, the conclusions about the influence of culture on economic processes are confirmed by modern economic practices.

Abstract
The formation of post-industrial society has caused modification of socioeconomic parameters of classes and the criteria of their identification. Class structure of modern society is characterized by multicriteriality, and this necessitates using a number of indicators to identify the class borderlines. These include not just property relations, level of income and consumption, nature of work, but also access to information resources, elements of power and control, professional status, position in the labour market, level of education, etc. Basing on synthesis of modern sociological concepts, this article presents a research of social positions of classes and tends in their development in postindustrial society.

Abstract
The article presents an overview of modern objectivistic and subjectivistic moral theories. Emotivism, ethical naturalism and moral cognitivism led to relativism, to the opposition of value and truth, and to ethical norms being defined by the opinion of the majority. Therefore, these theories cannot be used as the basis for an effective and consistent solution of moral and practical issues. To overcome the above negative consequences using the discourse ethics of J. Habermas is suggested. Regarding ethics as communicative acts based on performative attitudes and universalization principle leads to the similarity of theory and method. This approach allows us to use the discourse ethics of J. Habermas as a tool of applied and professional ethics.

Abstract
The purpose of the article is to analyze the nature of destructive organizational behavior in the context of naturalist anthropology. Corporate anthropology focuses on unique aspects of organizational behavior, adopting ethnomethodology, culture anthropology and microsociology approaches. In turn, philosophical anthropology allows to see the general, universal in the destructive behavior of the staff. The article analyzes anthropological grounds of socio-psychological vandalism as a form of destructive behavior of personnel. In the framework of philosophical anthropology and naturalistic discourse specifically, the reduction of the vital principle of man towards aggression and destructiveness is criticized, and the nature of man is claimed to possess creative and constructive orientations. The idea that human nature is ambivalent and is a determinant of destructive organizational behavior and, at the same time, possesses resources to overcome the destructiveness, is proved.

Abstract
The basic methodological traditions of sociology in the analysis of socialization are considered. Criteria, social and structural conditions and consequences of successful socialization are analyzed. Based on the typological approach to socialization proposed in the concept of "social code" by M. K. Petrov, the key characteristics of the universal standard of socialization are analyzed. The author traces its religious and philosophical foundations, ideological advancement, socio-economic and political consolidation accomplished in the processes of capitalist modernization with the obligatory participation of the national state. The inevitability of the decomposition of a universal standard in post-industrial society is proved. Socialization processes in the context of globalization are considered concerning the competition of transnational, national-state and confessional subjects. An attempt is made to substantiate the fruitfulness of the socialization analysis as a space for modeling.

Abstract
The article reviews the main models of interaction between authorities and business structures in Russia. The analysis of the main models of the relationships between the authorities and entrepreneurs is made. The biased model, the privatization of power model, the lobbying model, the ignoring model, and the state patronage model are analyzed. The study also considers the transformation of forms and models of interaction between government and business authorities according to the time period and the level of power. The main factors obstructing the transition from dominant and competitive models of interaction to forming partnerships between the authorities and business on mutually beneficial terms are identified. Those include imperfection of the regulatory and legal framework, socioeconomic and political instability in the state, complex multi-stage implementation of public- private partnership, as well as imperfection of the long-term planning system at the state level.

Abstract
The fundamental problems of pricing and product costing and main trends in solving these problems are examined considering the lack of a current base of procedural guidelines and substantial controversy of norms and requirements of the existing guidelines that regulate price and costs determination according to costing items for industrial products. A special emphasis in solving the problems is placed on the development of project management principles at industrial enterprises, modern implementation of the principles of product life cycle management, supporting the use of competitive mechanisms for cost cutting, applying modern methods and management tools of product quality control, improvement of industry experts training.

Abstract
The influence of the integration process on commercialization is connected with the development of scientific and technological progress, which generates innovations in all sectors of the economy and expansion of business at the global level. In the modern community, the issues of the commercialization of innovations are strategically important, without them it is impossible to ensure the effective development of enterprises and economy as a whole. In the context of Eurasian integration, a significant trend in the development of the entire world community is the cooperation of the member countries of the Eurasian Economic Union, which can radically change the current status quo in the global economy. The article examines the problems and prospects of the commercialization of innovations in the context of the Eurasian integration. The features of the commercialization process in different activity areas of the service sector and with different types of consumers are presented. It is shown that the diversification processes under modern conditions of integration and globalization are a stimulus to the development and effective use of the innovative potential of research organizations and industrial enterprises of various industries that implement entrepreneurial type strategies.

Abstract
Types, classification and features of transaction costs are considered, and the classification of transaction costs during business processes, specifically the processes of supply, production and sales, is presented. The dynamics of transaction costs of the organization depending on the stages of its life cycle is shown. The problems associated with the assessment and accounting for transaction costs are identified. The existing methods of transaction costs accounting are presented. Accounts which reflect transaction costs are considered. A method of accounting for transaction costs in money (explicit costs) on a distinct account is proposed. It is proposed to keep implicit transaction costs associated with the loss of time segregated on a separate off-balance sheet account. The features of management accounting of transaction costs are presented.

Abstract
This paper is devoted to constructing a linear mixed-integer model, finding a method and selecting an algorithm to determine the optimal solution to the production and transportation problem. This task can be attributed to non-trivial combinatorial problems on decision-making at an enterprise. This article contains a model of generalization of three previously known linear programming problems: production problems, time accounting tasks, and service flow problems. The target setting that integrates all three of the above problems into one, applies to the case when a manufacturing facility declares itself bankrupt and tries to manufacture products from the remains of raw materials for further sale and delivery of the goods produced meeting road system features, maximizing the profit and minimizing carrying costs. It is shown that such a problem can solve and visualize the package Matlab. Possible economic situations are presented where this model could be relevant. A number of possible upgrades to the model of this problem are considered.
