Kirill is interested in not only his specialty. Humanitarian and social problems also attract student's attention. For example, he devoted his speech at the All-Ukrainian conference «Globalization of industrial capacity-building in the post-industrial transformation» (2017) to the study of the phenomenon of "economic miracle" with the aim of directing the corresponding processes to the economic component of our state. Kirill also has publications related to labor protection issues. He is also interested in some philosophical issues, to which he paid attention to during the XIX International Scientific and Practical Conference of Students and Postgraduates «Days of Science of the Faculty of Sociology and Law».
