The purpose of the study was to identify the features of the development of the global telecommunications market, its impact on the digital transformation of the economy of the Republic of Belarus. The subject of the article is the global telecommunications market and its development in China, Belarus. Methods of analysis and synthesis, system approach, generalization, grouping, and comparative analysis were used in the study. The relevance of the research topic is due to the fact that the telecommunications market has the highest growth rates in the modern world economy. The prospects for economic growth of any state depend on the level of its development. Using digital technologies, countries can quickly become leaders in economic development. The subjects of the telecommunications market of goods and services are identified. The features of the modern telecommunications market are identified: an increase in the volume of investment in the market of goods and services of information and communication technologies; the use of mobile technologies as one of the main drivers of the growth of the information and communication technologies market; the creation of platforms that integrate technologies, networks and devices that provide the use of new opportunities; an increase in the degree of concentration and consolidation in the telecommunications market. The features of the Chinese telecommunications market are: the development of individual products and services for customers, the transformation of traditional industries with the help of Internet technologies, a high level of competition and risks, and significant attention to the production of consumer electronics. Huawei's main competitive strategy is diversification. A distinctive feature of Huawei's work in the Belarusian market is its focus on building mainly its own systems and networks, that is, its own infrastructure. The results of the study can be used in the practice of business entities and public administration bodies.

AbstractSolar hydrogen production through water splitting is the most important and promising approach to obtaining green hydrogen energy. Although this technology developed rapidly in the last two decades, it is still a long way from true commercialization. In particular, the efficiency and scalability of solar hydrogen production have attracted extensive attention in the field of basic research. Currently, the three most studied routes for solar hydrogen production include photocatalytic (PC), photoelectrochemical (PEC), and photovoltaic-electrochemical (PV-EC) water splitting. In this review, we briefly introduce the motivation of developing green hydrogen energy, and then summarize the influential breakthroughs on efficiency and scalability for solar hydrogen production, especially those cases that are instructive to practical applications. Finally, we analyze the challenges facing the industrialization of hydrogen production from solar water splitting and provide insights for accelerating the transition from basic research to practical applications. Overall, this review can provide a meaningful reference for addressing the issues of efficiency improvement and scale expansion of solar hydrogen production, thereby promoting the innovation and growth of renewable hydrogen energy industry.
Graphical Abstract

Although queer Israeli cinema is often perceived as symptomatically expressing Israeli society and its gay politics, this article argues that the recent success of Israeli films abroad can be attributed to their inclusion within the global network of film festivals and art houses. Israeli films have been thriving as part of "world cinema" by adopting a formula that Thomas Elsaesser has labeled "self-othering" or "self-exoticizing," in which they expose local issues, such as the Israeli-Palestinian conflict and ultraorthodox Jewish communities, to the gaze of the other. We suggest that many Israeli queer films offer a double exoticization, adding a gay twist to the familiar formula of Israeli self-othering, or providing an exotic locale to revitalize otherwise worn-out gay narratives. Additionally, we look at films that challenge this formula from within the festival network and suggest that we should also examine our own position as film scholars writing about queer Israeli cinema to a global academic community.

Six graduate students working within media studies reflect upon their experiences and studies evidencing a shared attention to the "in-betweens" of identity formation, graduate school, disciplines, and professional practices. All seek and speak with a queer voice to address how power plays out in graduate school, often in the minute exercises of discipline and learning understood through sexual metaphors. The authors also exhibit a noteworthy interest and investment in popular culture that leads each to consider the larger implications of their intellectual work.

Purpose The economic downturn due to the Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic initially led to a large increase in the US unemployment rate. Being laid-off or losing a job could cause financial stress and have an impact on the relationship between parents or other adults in the home and children. We aimed to assess the effect of household unemployment on child physical and emotional abuse during the early part of the COVID-19 pandemic, with an older population of children. Methods Data were from a sample of 7,555 students from 51 schools that participated in a survey administered from October to December 2020. We conducted weighted multivariable logistic regression models and report adjusted odds ratio to estimate associations between recent household unemployment and emotional and physical abuse. Results Having a parent or other adult in the home with a job loss was associated with higher odds of emotional or physical abuse. Conclusions The findings are consistent with child maltreatment prevention strategies focused on alleviating economic hardship.
