Food security situation in EU countries is evaluated with reference to theoretical and empirical material. Aim of the article – to evaluate food security possibilities in European Union. Object of the article – food security. Methods used: analysis of scientific literature, method of descriptive statistics analysis. In the article according to the collected theoretical and practical material, the food security indicators in Europe countries are analysed and food security situation in Western Europe, Baltic and Easten Europe counties is evaluated. The first part of this article considers the concept of food security. Food security concept involves these dimensions of food security: a) availability of food, b) access to food, c) food utilization, d) stability, and e) vulnerability. Research methodology is discussed in the second part of the article. Main food security indicators for comparison are chosen based on theoretical and analytical analysis. The third part of this article presents the evaluation of food security in Baltic and Easten European countries.

The paper analyses the changes of labour productivity in the European Union countries, discusses the fac - tors that affect labour productivity; also shows that labour productivity varies greatly across European Union countries. During study econometric model is used for twenty European Union countries. Based on regres - sion analysis results time period were defined during which the increase of investments into physical capital has the strongest effect on labour productivity in different European countries.

Dangerous goods are substances with hazardous properties and products that can harm people, the environment or property. Incorrect transport or storage of such cargo can lead to human or animal disease, poisoning, burns, as well as explosion, fire, damage to other cargo, rolling stock, structures and equipment, contamination of the environment and water. It is not possible to avoid the risk of transporting dangerous goods, but it can be controlled and minimized.A study on the possibilities for improving the transport of dangerous goods in the European Union countries was carried out. The study was conducted using a survey method. Questionnaires were sent to transport companies carrying dangerous goods. These companies are based in the European Union countries. The purpose of the study was to find out what security measures the relevant transport company is taking to ensure the safe transport of dangerous goods, the modes of transport of the most dangerous goods, the countries where the dangerous goods transported by the respective carrier are mostly transported, the information means used by the company for fast and safe transportation to the consignee of this type of cargo.The article presents the results of the study on the transport of dangerous goods in the EU countries. The questionnaire analysis showshow respondents in the European Union countries evaluate the transport of dangerous goods, what dangerous goods are usually transported, what are the causes of accidents and what is being done to reduce the risks of transporting dangerous goods.After analysis of the results of the study it can be stated that the EU countries have a variety of security measures to reduce the risk of dangerous goods transport. Therefore, Lithuanian carriers can be offered various means of safe transportation of these goods.The article provides guidance measures to ensure the safe transport of that cargo.

With changes in economic system, cultural and creative industries that are associated with art, mass media and media activities comprise an increasing part of a country economy. Cultural and creative industries sector impacts the economic system not only through main economic indicators but also indirectly: it develops creativity, innovativeness and innovation, which encourage the sector development itself and contribute to the growth of other sectors. It provides an argument for the scientific problem formulated in the dissertation – what are the theoretical assumptions for the cultural and creative industries and how to evaluate cultural and creative industries sector? The research problem covers the majority of basic principles of the sector: evaluation of cultural and economic value, the opposition between economically inefficient cultural industries and commercially successful creative industries, impact on country's economic growth and welfare. In the dissertation the concept of cultural and creative industries was discussed; classification systems were analysed; concept of cultural and economic value was introduced; complex model of cultural and creative industries was presented, and the impact of cultural and creative industries on socioeconomic system was analysed. In order to evaluate the sector, predominant methods for evaluating the sector were reviewed, critical analysis of creativity indexes was performed, the demand for a new analytical tool was considered, and cultural and creative industries index was developed. Cultural and creative industries index has been calculated for the European Union countries (2000-2014); according the CCII the comparison European Union countries has been performed, and opportunities to apply it for further empirical research has been studied and possible trends for further evaluation of cultural and creative industries sector have been formed.

Under the development of globalization conditions one of the most important objective of the European Union is to maintain and create new jobs according to the constant growth of people migration. The Lithuanian labo ur market situation (as well as being in the European Union) depends on processes of innovation, globalization and free movement of persons. The rapid development of economic migration negatively affects Lithuanian labour market, which makes the country's labour force decreasing and getting older. According to the "brain drain", investments for young people education aren't efficient, and territorial disparity is one of the biggest problems of the labour market. The object of research is the EU labour market. The goal of the article is to assess the impact of globalization for the EU labour market. To achieve this goal, the following tasks have been implemented: the analysis of the theoretical aspects of the globalization and labour market; to identify the trends of the Lithuanian and European Union countries labour market; to analyse the globalization impact for labour market. In this article the following methods of analysis are used: a systemic analysis of the scientific literature, both the theoretical and practical claims matching methods, the analysis of statistica l data
