THEORETICAL APPROACHES TO DETERMINING THE ESSENCE OF THE CONCEPT OF "EXPORT AND LOGISTICS POTENTIAL"

Abstract

The work is devoted to topical issues of theoretical research of scientific approaches to interpreting the concepts of "export potential" and "logistics potential". The purpose of the article is the research and systematization of theoretical approaches to the content of the above concepts, as well as the scientific substantiation of the essence of the "export-logistics potential" category. The research uses general scientific and unique methods: inductive and deductive - to justify approaches to determining the essence of export and logistics potential concepts; comparative - to outline the typical characteristics of the studied images within the framework of resource and system approaches; graphic - for a visual representation of the "export and logistics potential" definition; abstract and logical - for generalization and formation of conclusions. The author's interpretation of the essence of "export and logistics potential" is proposed, under which it is appropriate to understand the component of the production and economic potential of the state, which affects the formation of the national economy structure, determining its profile and degree of involvement in the system of foreign economic relations and global logistics networks. It has been studied that the export-logistics potential ensures efficient trade, which meets international standards and minimizes emissions into the environment. It has been established that the formation of the export-logistics potential is a complex, dynamic process aimed at interacting with the external environment and ensuring high quality of export products selling. It was established that the export-logistics potential provides efficient export goods traffic, associated with minimal expenditure of time and financial resources, as well as analytical transport support that meets international standards and minimizes harmful environmental emissions. It is substantiated that the export-logistics potential is characterized by the presence of hierarchical levels: micro- (enterprises), meso- (region), macro- (state), and mega-levels (international level).
