A new direction of scientific research related to outlining a new segment of the shadow economics is discussed: the shadow economics in the domain of information and communication technologies or the shadow digital economics. The task is to form a scientific understanding of the main trends, directions and prospects of the development of the global market for criminal products and services in the context of globalization.The review and comparative analysis is based on reports and available statistical materials from well-known global research centers, whose activities are related to research on information security problems and struggling against cybercrime. An analysis of modern information threats to the individual, society and the state, which are included in the global risk rating, is carried out. A large amount of statistical data characterizing certain aspects of shadow digital economics such as activities of cybercriminals, regional distribution of cybercrime, and damage from known computer incidents have been analyzed. The steady growth of not only quantitative indicators, but also qualitative characteristics of cybercrime has been revealed. Great attention has been paid to the development and definition of the category of “shadow digital economics”, its structure and genesis, with the identification of such components as “shadow information technologies”, “shadow information systems” and “shadow digital economics”. A comprehensive analysis of the evolution of the term “shadow digital economics” has been carried out, with five main approaches: legal, mathematical, socio-psychological, organizational, managerial, economic and financial. Market structure is analyzed with the segmentation of products and services. The criminal factor of products and services industry is singled out. A new classification of software products and information services of a criminal nature is proposed. A selection of a group of “prospective” services that can cause irreparable and significant harm to the state and commercial information systems has been carried out. An analysis of measurement methods and approaches to assessing the level of the shadow digital economics is carried out, the main factors influencing them are determined. The level of support for the shadow digital economics by organized criminal groups has been determined, and a conclusion has been drawn about the stimulation of development and their excess of demand for relevant products and services. The results of this study can serve as a basis for predictions, effective struggle and confronting the manifestations of the shadow digital economy.

The essence and characteristics of administrative negotiation as administrative attitude have been justified. The role and importance of administrative contracting for the governance has been justified. The study aims to analyse “public interest” and to present its importance for the administrative relations. To achieve this objective the following tasks have been set: theoretical analysis of the scientific expressions of “public interest” in administration and management; considering administrative relations in management; practical research on public interest in administrative relations; summarising the results achieved, formulating conclusions and recommendations. The main research thesis is subordinated to the idea of the key role of public interest in administrative relations, and after an empirical study, it has been confirmed. The study concludes that public interest is the basis of public policies and public interest, it is a key prerequisite for developing administrative capacity and reducing administrative burdens.
