Beer was the drink of choice in many ancient societies and throughout the past centuries in large parts of the world. Right now, it is globally by far the most important alcoholic drink, in volume and value terms. The largest brewing companies have developed into global multinationals. The beer market is characterized by strong growth in emerging economies, by a substantial decline of (per capita) beer consumption in traditional markets, and a shift to new products. There has been a strong interaction between governments (politics) and markets (economics) in the beer industry. For centuries, taxes on beer or its raw materials were a major source of tax revenue for governments. Governments have also regulated the beer industry for reasons related to quality, health, and competition. The beer market is not only an interesting sector to study in itself but also yields important general economic insights.

The various chapters cover economic history and development, demand and supply, trade and investment, geography and scale economies, technology and innovation, health and nutrition, quantity and quality, industrial organization and competition, taxation and regulation, and regional beer market developments.
In the article the authors examine the territorial marketing as a strategic management process, the importance of which is growing in the modern economic environment. A variety of geographical areas, such as cities, regions and countries can become objects of the territorial marketing. Marketing activities aimed at improving the competitiveness of the territory are similar to marketing campaigns of commercial organizations, as the territory is seen as an object of potential investment. The authors conducted a comparative analysis of different approaches to designing a marketing strategy for the development of the city and chose the most effective one of all the alternatives considered. The activities connected with creating the city image within the investment climate improvement program of Nizhny Novgorod region were assessed. The results of the research show that there is a piecemeal approach to the creation of a marketing strategy for the city development. The authors decided to develop a program aimed at creating Nizhny Novgorod image. At the first stage, there was conducted a quantitative study to determine the attitude of Nizhny Novgorod residents to their native city. The number of residents surveyed was 2,500. The survey revealed fuzzy positioning of the city. The authors have chosen the marketing infrastructure as the main marketing strategy of Nizhny Novgorod. The essence of this strategy is to increase the degree of civilization of market relations in the selected area. The main objective is the development of local infrastructure in order to improve the standard of living and working conditions. Extension of the underground network, a growing number of sports facilities, increased housing construction, as well as new transport links in Nizhny Novgorod region make marketing infrastructure a promising direction of the area development.

The paper examines the structure, governance, and balance sheets of state-controlled banks in Russia, which accounted for over 55 percent of the total assets in the country's banking system in early 2012. The author offers a credible estimate of the size of the country's state banking sector by including banks that are indirectly owned by public organizations. Contrary to some predictions based on the theoretical literature on economic transition, he explains the relatively high profitability and efficiency of Russian state-controlled banks by pointing to their competitive position in such functions as acquisition and disposal of assets on behalf of the government. Also suggested in the paper is a different way of looking at market concentration in Russia (by consolidating the market shares of core state-controlled banks), which produces a picture of a more concentrated market than officially reported. Lastly, one of the author's interesting conclusions is that China provides a better benchmark than the formerly centrally planned economies of Central and Eastern Europe by which to assess the viability of state ownership of banks in Russia and to evaluate the country's banking sector.
