There is a set of instruments of carrying out the regional policy, successfully applied in these or those countries during various periods of their economic development. In our opinion, one of instruments of the state strategy of regional development and regional policy, rational social and economic division into districts which can form a basis of administrative-territorial division and the tool of regional policy has to act. Discrepancy of administrative-territorial division to objective borders of social and economic areas at imperfection of the federal relations conducts to economic, political, international collisions and the state shocks. But this discrepancy isn’t an absolute obstacle to implementation of regional policy and can be easily overcome without direct change of administrative-territorial division with three main mechanisms of implementation of regional policy: selective support of regional development, program approach to implementation of the purposes of regional policy and the budgetary federalism. This article is devoted to key instruments of realization of the state strategy of regional development and regional policy of territorial subjects of the Russian Federation.

Attention is focused on the problem of irregular regional growth in the country, which leads to differences in the investment potential of regions and is caused by different groups of factors. Active measures of investment activity are proposed. The ways of increasing the investment activity of Kyiv region are intersected with national interests.

In the scientific literature, there is no single interpretation of the term «financial mechanism.» Therefore, the definition of a financial mechanism serves the main purpose of our work. Raised in this article, the problem studied in the works of a number of domestic and foreign economists L. Braginsky, V. Bocharov, I. Grishina, T. Denisova, G. Eghiazarian, B. Efimova, I. Zhuravkova, V. Ivanitskogo, E. Elias, A. Cossack, V. Krasowski, M. Kreynin, E. Cups, E. Melnikova, E. Mikhailova, W. Mikkova, G. Nikitina, A. Pilipenko, I. Roisman, V. Rybin, V. Rozhkov, A. Hachaturina. This paper analyzes the theoretical approaches to the definition of financial and investment mechanism. Also examined the mechanism of formation and use savings of economic agents, and the structure of the mechanism of formation and use savings. Thus, we came to the conclusions that the consumption of household savings is organized through the financial mechanism and organizing consumer spending ( consumption mechanism ) . The magnitude of long-term investments that are resistant to fluctuations in world financial markets , depends on the investment activity of the population. Therefore, the concept of stimulation of investment activity in the economy is formulated based on the use of household savings . One important element of this concept is the formation and use of PPM savings of the population , since the value of sustainable, intensive investment flows depends on the efficiency of this mechanism.

In modern conditions the processes of functioning and developing of economic systems at any level: national, regional or at a level of the main link of the economy depend on various factors such as the environment. The environment quality plays an increasingly important role as a factor for stable development of the society and ensures the competitiveness of Ukraine’s economy on the world market. Significant ecological diversification of the Ukraine’s territory and peculiarity of the social and economic processes in the regions, which in the historical, natural, social, economic relations are far from dissimilar, actualize the problem of regionally differentiated approaches to the management of ecological safety. In the same time, the low effectiveness of the state management mechanisms of sustainable environmental development of Ukraine causes the objective necessity to ensure the ecological and economic security of the country and its regions. That requires a corresponding theoretical basis, methodological approaches, scientific substantiation of directions and its implementation. It is really important to investigate the environmental management mechanisms in the region on the basis of three main activities directed on implementing the ecological safety concept — informational, administrative and economic. The management mechanisms of ecological security in the region were analyzed in the paper. The information, administrative and economic activities directed on implementing the environmental safety concept were considered. The solution of environmental safety problems of economic systems (national, regional, local levels) requires the introduction of a mechanism for environmental management. The formation of regional and national systems of ecological safety will ensure the correspondence of environmental management mechanisms with liabilities of Ukraine on multilateral environmental agreements. These agreements are an important tool for ensuring sustainable development of the state and support to the European system of ecological safety.

The article investigated the activities of international organizations in terms of their impact on the cultural heritage preservation in CIS countries. The author analyzes historical context of the formation of common international system for the protection of cultural heritage, as well as its current trends of development. Special attention is given to the non-governmental international organizations in the sphere of conservation and protection of cultural heritage. The major reasons of actualization of international cooperation for the conservation of cultural heritage in the context of globalization are shown. Thus, it can be argued that the experience of the functioning and development of the institutions and procedures of international cooperation in the conservation of cultural heritage clearly shows a steady increase in the role and importance of this activity. Allocated trend is caused by two main reasons . First, the object of international cooperation in this area (meaning cultural relations and cultural heritage as an object of international protection and conservation ) as such requires a joint and consolidated efforts of many countries to build a coherent system of cultural heritage preservation . Moreover, quite often the objects of protection in this area constitute unconditional cultural and historical value , not only for this or that particular state or nation , but for all mankind. Second, the procedural aspect resolution of many issues in the field of cultural heritage is often associated with the direct interaction of two or more states, which makes it impossible to elimination or reduction of the international dimension of the activities for the protection of culture. While at the institutional level , there are two main forms of international cooperation in the conservation of cultural heritage. On the one hand, it is the work of international (governmental ) organizations , and on the other , it is the work of international non-governmental (public) organizations. However, in modern conditions, in particular confirms that the experience of cultural heritage protection in the CIS member states , these two forms of international cooperation in the conservation of cultural heritage in no way be opposed to each other , since the objective trend of modernity is precisely the deepening of coordination between these two types of international organizations.

Language of kalmyk people, small ethnic group speaking one of the Mongolic Language buddhists living in the south of the Russian Federation, in the lower reaches of Volga, is under the threat of disappearance. The main reasons for the loss of its communicative functions are: 13-year-old Stalin’s deportation of the Kalmyk people (from 1943 till 1956), its geographical dispersion throughout the Siberian territory, elimination of the national classes after return home, the reduction or lack of motivation among the population in the study of the Kalmyk language. At the beginning of the 1990s processes of the ethno cultural revival began in the Republic, whose important direction was to raise the status of the Kalmyk language, its consolidation, along with Russian as a state language of the Republic of Kalmykia. This language policy gradually eliminates the effects of long-term use of deformation in the Kalmyk language, but it cannot overcome the effect of assimilation. Therefore realization of a sociolinguistic research whose primary purpose is to determine the real picture of the language competence of potential carriers of the Kalmyk language is necessary. Moreover, based on the analysis of the research the recommendations are developed that legislative, executive authorities of the republic require making effective decisions regarding the implementation of the language policy in the Republic. The article describes the results of massive polls, conducted in 2004, 2008, 2010, 2013 by Kalmyk Institute for Humanities Research, which allow us to consider what is the young people’s attitude towards problems of ethnic culture and preservation of the Kalmyk language. Poll results show that language competence of young Kalmyks has slightly increased. Students and post-graduate young people want to learn the language on their own, looking for new methods, ways for effective learning. This indicates that the system of reforming of the titular language has been built properly. The Republic has used various means since the beginning of 2010s to save the Kalmyk language, including the use of computer technologies and their application to native language lessons. Electronic textbooks, electronic versions of dictionaries, phrase, grammar, use of recordings of live speech have already been established. Consequently, young people, as a group, the most approximate to the information technology, successfully use in the process of mastering the Kalmyk language the most advanced technical means. To achieve these goals and the positive results of the activities implemented in the field of language, it is necessary to combine and coordinate the efforts of all social institutions - family, preschool, school, extracurricular and other educational institutions (university, college, etc.), labor collectives.
