This paper analyses waste management policy development applying circular economy model and study its possibilities in Lithuania. The first part of this paper is dedicated to waste management policy concept, its dynamic analysis, circular economy model influence on waste management and waste management tools identification. The part of research analyses formation of waste management policy using circle economy in Lithuania. Used qualitative research based analysis of formed Lithuanian waste management policy using circle economy model. Project has found that currently formed waste management policy using circle economy or not targeted and systematic corrections are needed in order to achieve ambitious goals of the model. Identification of corrections and their practical appliance in policy formation would probably not only lead to the achievement of circle economy goals in Lithuania, but also would contribute to the targeted waste management policy formation on national, regional and local levels.

The author examines how intensive Russian propaganda (both recognisable and unrecognisable) can expand any theoretical model of communication. Over the past 15 years, in the context of open military and democratic conflicts where Russia fights against Ukraine and over Ukraine, or over influence in the Middle East by bombarding Syrian cities, and where the European Union is breaking apart after the Brexit vote, informational politics has emerged as one of the most significant factors. The author claims that the National Security Concept of the Russian Federation, adopted in 2000, served as a stimulus to the current expansion of the official propaganda of Russia. The document in question has to be described as the start of Russian politics built on disinformation. The concept claims that, allegedly, Russia is threatened by the other nations' desire "to dominate on the global information space" and "push Russia out of the international and domestic information market"; the concept further claims that foreign states are supposedly developing "the concepts of information warfare that provide for measures of dangerous impact on the information areas of other nations around the world". If one wished to apply a communication model to the document in question, one would have to opt for the simplest, i.e. linear (sender – message – recipient), model as there is no data implying that anyone had interpreted the content of the document as a set of symbols of inverted meaning, or had anticipated that Russia will itself start constructing information operations to justify its propagandistic politics.

The influence of infrastructure for country's economic growth is being examined in numerous foreign and Lithuanian sources. However, the research conducted by foreign scientists show significant influence of the country's infrastructure stimulating/attracting FDI and increasing the competiveness of the country. Adequate infrastructure should improve the investment climate of the country by attracting FDI. FDI plays an important role in dynamic economic growth of the country. The majority of questions under investigation associated with FDI are classical, i.e. the comparable size of the market, the size of the country, the economic openness of the country, the political stability of the country, etc. However, the factor of infrastructure as a variable, while analysing FDI flows, is encountered more and more often in the analysis of foreign scientists. This paper is aimed at assessing the impact of the country's infrastructure for FDI flows in the Baltic states. The object of the paper: the infrastructures and FDI of the Baltic states. The objectives of the paper: • To define the concept of infrastructure, single out the sectors, and identify its characteristics after conducting the empirical analysis of the literature. • To analyse the importance of infrastructure in the economical growth of the country, its competitiveness, and FDI. • To review the research of Lithuanian and foreign scientists on the subject matter. • To analyse the qualitative and quantitative indicators of infrastructure of the Baltic states. • To determine if infrastructure has an impact on FDI in the Baltic states after conducting the statistical regression analysis. The statistical model implied in the paper indicated that the sectors of infrastructure in the Baltic states have strong positive correlation with FDI. However, the implied model has also showed that the sectors of infrastructure in the Baltic states have no value in attracting FDI. Therefore, these countries should focus on other economic variables that affect FDI flows. Master thesis consists of: 61 pages (excluding appendixes), 18 tables, 13 figures, and 13 appendixes. 68 sources of scientific literature and 2 databases were quoted in this paper

The topic of globalization is certainly not new and has received major attention especially in the last few years. Globalization is a far-reaching phenomenon, penetrating into all spheres of social life. The success of Lithuanian economy and integration into the European Union and the global trade depend on inside and outside factors of globalization. Globalization refers to the growing integration of economies and societies around the world. The economic dimensions include increases in the flows of trade in goods, services, and capital, as well as mobility if individuals across the borders. Important features of globalization include its link to technological advances that is somewhat independent of governments, and loss of distinction between domestic and international policies. The main aim of this paper – to evaluate the situation and effect of globalization for the economies in the world and Lithuania, and present the suggestions how economic policies might be improved. In order to achieve the aim, the following tasks were formulated: 1. To explore conception of globalization among different theories in Lithuania and the world and present the main factors of globalization; 2. To analyze evaluation models of globalization and evaluate it in the world; 3. To present possible perspectives of economic policies and the main suggestions to make use of globalization advantages in the world and Lithuania. The major part of material consisted of the information gained from specialized publications, articles from newspapers, magazines. The analytical part of this study was based on the researches and analysis of different analysts and author's own opinion on globalization in the world. Graduation paper consists of the introduction, theoretical, analytical and perspectives parts, conclusions and proposals, list of literature sources, 15 tables, 9 pictures and 3 appendixes. Volume of the paper is 74 pages. List of literature includes 25 sources.

In order to explain the most important relations between the team variables and team performance the new model is presented. The model infers, that team trust influences the development of cohesion between teem members. Cohesion, on one hand has a positive affect on perceived self and collective efficacy, on the other hand, there is a difference between highly and low coherent teams. We assume, that in the teams ofhigh cohesion, coIlective efficacy is the most important variable in predicting the team performance, and in the contrary, then the cohesion in the team is low, self efficacy should be the main variable in prediction of performance. Besides, very important role in the relation between perceived efficacy and performance plays stress. This theoretical model could be applied for the futher empirical researches or practical purposes, becauses it helps to explain a huge amount of conflicting scientific data and provides ways to raise the efficacy of the teams. Keywords: military team, variables relating to team performance, cohesion, self efficacy and collective efficacy, team trust, stress.
