THE CONCEPT OF "RUSSIAN NORTHERNERS" AS THE BASIS OF THE POLITICAL PHILOSOPHY OF M.M. SHCHERBATOV

In this article, the author analyzes the relationship between the political-philosophical and historical views of M.M. Shcherbatov. Based on the political philosophy and concept of geographical determinism of Montesquieu, as well as the historical concept of Boulainvilliers, Shcherbatov develops an original interpretation of Russia as a power belonging to the cultural and historical space of the North. In the context of Normanism developed by Shcherbatov, the liberal-aristocratic interpretation of Russian history is studied, which criticizes the autocratic tendency of the contemporary thinker. Shcherbatov opposes to autocratic rule the project of a state based on the principles of hierarchy, combining the law and the estate principles. According to the author, the identification concept of "Russian northerners" can be considered a unifying motive of Shcherbatov's work, which is most expressed in the work "Journey to the Land of Ophir...", in which the thinker formulates a liberal-conservative political project as the foundation of the history of the Russian empire.

Key words: Shcherbatov, Russia, political philosophy, utopia, ideology, identity, «northernism».

NON-PARTICIPATION OF YOUNG PEOPLE IN ELECTIONS AND REFERENDUMS AS A CHALLENGE TO DEMOCRACY

The phenomenon of political participation of young people is analyzed. It is shown that the key feature of youth political activity is that young people are more willing to participate in cause-oriented, informal, non-institutional political events and processes. There is a contradiction between the enthusiasm of young people about the importance of the institution of elections in the reproduction of democracy and the low level of participation in elections. It is shown that non-participation in elections is associated with low confidence of young people in the effectiveness of electoral procedures and the fairness of the political management system.

Key words: elections, political process, democracy, political participation of youth, political system, youth policy.

PSYCHOLOGICAL COERCION IS ONE OF THE MAIN METHODS OF CONDUCTING "COLOR REVOLUTIONS" OF HYBRID WARFARE

The article is devoted to the actual problem of psychological coercion as one of the main methods of conducting "color revolutions" of hybrid warfare. It is noted that hybrid warfare requires the creation and functioning of "networks", the main element of the information space, where information operations are carried out today to achieve political, economic, informational and military goals. It is established that the network-centric operation (CO) is the most important concept of network-centric warfare (CW): It is emphasized that the "color revolution" (CR) is a network-centric operation, the purpose of which is the displacement of existing political regimes in a particular country.. The technologies of psychological coercion are considered. The government or other public administration body is under psychological pressure from shadow and legitimate centers of power, which comes simultaneously from two sides: both "from above" and "from below". The basic concepts of psychological pressure (PD) are defined.: It is established that psychological pressure on the military-political leadership (VPR) of the state is a "pincer grip" on three levels: The special role of the media in the implementation of the "pincer grip" method is considered. The main directions of preventing PD on the leadership of the state are determined. It has been established that all the "color revolutions" that are taking place in the world, and, in particular, in the post-Soviet space, are a phenomenon prepared and organized by the United States to establish geopolitical control over those states and territories that were previously in the zone of influence of Russia. It was emphasized that wherever the scenarios of "color revolutions" were implemented, today we can observe either a partial or complete loss of sovereignty. (Georgia, Ukraine). It is considered how Ukraine was turned into an enemy of Russia, into an "anti-Russia" state. The conclusion says that the CR is a network–centric operation, the purpose of which is to shift the existing political regimes in a particular country. It is based on the methods.

Key words: hybrid war, network-centric war, network-centric operation, color revolution, psychological coercion technologies, psychological pressure.

WHAT THE IDEOLOGY SHOULD BE IN THE AGE OF HIGH TECHNOLOGY?

The principle of inadmissibility of state ideology proclaimed in the Constitution is called into question in many scientific works. Various options for new formulations are proposed. Each of them correctly reflects one aspect of Russian reality and serves as valuable material for discussion. It is necessary to find, firstly, approaches that will be acceptable to all segments of society. Secondly, it is important to develop an ideology that will not remain on paper, but will begin to penetrate the minds of citizens. We have to talk about a new ideology due to a number of unfortunate facts. In terms of the number of prisoners, Russia is among the top five countries; in terms of indices of combating corruption in society, ensuring the rule of law, and the level of security of citizens, it ranks one hundredth. An increase in well-being does not directly lead to an increase in the consciousness of citizens. But there is an inverse relationship between state support for preschool care and education, on the one hand, and the crime rate, on the other. It is possible to significantly improve the work with upbringing and education only with a significant increase in the efficiency of the economy. This problem is being solved thanks to the development of high and knowledge-intensive technologies. It has a significant economic impact all over the world. Combining the priority of upbringing and education as the main goal of society with technological development as the main means of achieving it allows us to solve a triune task – building a society of conscious citizens, training personnel to ensure the technological sovereignty of the country and creating an atmosphere of peace for working parents for their children sent to kindergartens. The article, based on international comparisons, statistical analysis, historical and technical development of successful companies, sets the task of substantiating the ideology of building a society friendly to people.

Key words: ideology, preschool care and education, high technology, forms of ownership, human-friendly society, consciousness, rating, kindergartens.

THE PHENOMENON OF “REVOLVING DOORS” AS A PARADIGM OF THE US CORPORACRACY

Objective. This study examines the phenomenon of the "revolving door," aiming to demonstrate that major business corporations significantly influence both the domestic and foreign policies of the United States through lobbying and connections with former government officials who have transitioned to the private sector.

Procedure and Methods. An analysis of the "revolving door" policy was conducted in the United States, the European Union, and Japan. The study delved into the phenomenon's impact on national security issues. The legislative acts were closely scrutinized as well as the legal practices surrounding the revolving door phenomenon in the investigated countries. The research employs methods such as document study, content analysis, and comparative methodology. Source-based analysis serves as the foundational method of the study.

Results. The "revolving door" phenomenon has become a standard in Western policy, invariably constituting an element of the corporatocracy that has emerged in the Western political discourse. Consequently, the "revolving door" serves as a legalized form of corruption in the Western model of state-private sector interactions.

Practical Significance. The findings have been incorporated into lectures and resource materials for the course "Private Intelligence Companies" within the "Political Science" curriculum, specifically the master’s program "Information and Hybrid Wars" at Moscow State University.

Key words: revolving door, corruption, lobbying, public-private partnership.

SUCCESS FACTORS OF REGIONAL PARTIES

The article explores the success of regional political parties and proposes a new approach to measuring it. The author points out the limitations of electoral measurement of success, which focuses on obtaining nationwide support and does not align with the goals of regional parties that rely on the electorate of specific regions. Instead, a definition of regional party success is proposed in three aspects: electoral, office and political. Factors explaining the emergence of regional parties are analyzed, and a conclusion is drawn regarding the need to differentiate between factors contributing to the formation of a regional party and factors explaining its success after its creation. The proposed approach allows for a better understanding and measurement of the success of regional parties in a political context.

Key words: regional parties, electoral success, office success, policy success.

POLITICAL AND LEGAL ASPECTS OF THE REINDUSTRIALIZATION OF THE EAEU COUNTRIES

Today, more and more people are talking about the transition to a new stage in the development of society. At the same time, neo-Marxists consider this topic quite natural, since the experience of socialism in the 20th century was not completed and is largely considered premature. As a result, modern countries are faced with a certain choice: to continue to follow the capitalist path of development, which is becoming obsolete, or to use the experience of the USSR and optimize it for modern realities. In this vein, the topic of reindustrialization of the EAEU countries is of particular relevance, especially if we consider it in the light of the policy pursued by the Russian government in the Far East. The purpose of the work is to consider the features of the Soviet approach to industrialization and draw an analogy with modernity. The novelty of the work lies in comparing the policy of the modern Russian government with the policy pursued during the Stalinist period, as well as in describing possible options for repeating and optimizing the Soviet approach to managing the economy and remote regions in particular. The main method is the comparison of data based on the analysis, synthesis and systematization of the material. The result of the study is set out in a number of proposals for further policy in the Far East in order to strengthen the positions of the Russian government.

Key words: political instruments, regulation of the region, ties with the EAEU, reindustrialization, the Far East.

DIGITAL TRANSFORMATION OF THE EDUCATION SYSTEM IN HIGHER SCHOOL

Introduction: the article examines the elements of digital transformation in the higher education system. The study of the issue of digital transformation occurs through the prism of digital security, which is expressed in assessing the dynamics of the sufficiency of digital learning tools, their quality potential, as well as the intensity of the introduction of digital technologies into the educational process. The analytical procedures carried out reflect the retrospective nature of the activity of integrating digital technologies into the educational space of higher education, and also make it possible to form current short-term trends that can be used to correct the existing vector of digital transformation by relevant government bodies. In the wake of the consideration of digital transformation processes, a diagnosis was made of the total number of computers in higher education institutions, the share of computers used for educational purposes, the potential for their access to educational Internet portals, and also a calculation of the specific provision of the student population with computers and the share of students studying at universities using electronic educational technologies. The analytical resource of the work touches on the general aspects of the use of digital technologies in the activities of higher education institutions, which, when identifying current trends, require a more in-depth study in the context of the existing cause-and-effect relationships of the socio-economic system.

Purpose and objectives: the purpose of the work is to study the elements of digital transformation in the higher education system. In the context of the set goal, the following tasks are solved in the work:

– substantiate the relevance of the digital transformation of the higher education system in the current socio-economic environment;

– carry out diagnostics of the dynamics of digital provision of higher education institutions in a number of areas;

– analyze the intensity of the use of digital technologies in the educational processes of higher education institutions.

Research results: the team of authors carried out a diagnosis of individual areas of digital transformation of the higher education system in the Russian Federation, which allows us to form a general picture of the intensity of penetration of digital technologies into the activities of higher education institutions. The results of the work made it possible to make objective generalizations regarding the dynamics of the provision of digital tools in higher education and its functionality, as well as to consider the intensity of the use of digital technologies within the educational process. The grouped conclusions can become a relevant information base for relevant government authorities, ensuring a reduction in uncertainty when correcting the trajectory of the digital transformation of the country’s higher education system.

Key words: digital transformation, digital support, higher education, higher school, digital technologies, digital development, educational system.

RUSSIA AND BELARUS: INTEGRATION PROCESSES IN THE CONTEXT OF MODERN GLOBAL INNOVATIONS

In the context of the observed global innovation processes in the field of interstate relations in politics, economics, culture and new relationships with supranational subjects of politics and economics, the article analyzes the experience of forming new state unions on the example of the union "The Republic of Belarus – the Russian Federation". It is emphasized that this experience does not fit into the usual framework of federal or confederate relations. The Union State as a global political institution is developing within the framework of the concept of "state-civilization", which has manifested itself both as a phenomenon and as a concept in the new edition of modern global dynamics, and in itself acts as a global socio-political innovation.

TRANSFORMATION OF THE ACTIVITIES OF HIGHER EDUCATION INSTITUTIONS OF THE RUSSIAN FEDERATION UNDER THE CONDITIONS OF SANCTIONS AND GEOPOLITICAL PRESSURE

Introduction: the article discusses the key aspects of the transformation of the activities of higher education organizations in the context of sanctions and geopolitical pressure. The sanctions imposed by unfriendly countries have led to a significant degradation of international partnerships in the higher education system. At the same time, the leveling of all accumulated positive experience occurred as quickly as possible, on a large scale, and also without proper argumentation and the desire to minimize destructive consequences. In this regard, there is a well-founded opinion that the core goal of such actions was aimed at destroying the development potential of the Russian higher education system and limiting the access of its representatives to international cooperation. The presence of sanctions pressure, which generated a wide range of problems for science and the higher education system of the Russian Federation, required response measures from the competent authorities and relevant ministries. Actual tools for stabilizing the functioning of the educational process and the development of academic activities have also been introduced at the level of higher education. At the same time, it is worth noting the significant level of prompt response by universities to the negative conjuncture of communications with international partners. Within the framework of the measures taken, the activities of higher education organizations are being transformed in the vector of forming their own vision of further progressive development based on national educational sovereignty and more reliable partners in the conditions of the «new reality».

Purpose and objectives: the purpose of the work is to study the key aspects and directions of transformation of the activities of higher education organizations in the context of sanctions and geopolitical pressure. Achieving this goal is the result of solving the following list of tasks:

– to substantiate the relevance and market necessity of transforming the activities of higher education organizations in the context of sanctions and geopolitical pressure;

– highlight the strategic priorities for changing the vector of development of higher education organizations in the current international environment of academic communications and scientific cooperation;

– to analyze the best practices of universities under the sanctions of unfriendly countries;

– to compare the directions of sanctions pressure and anti-sanction measures in the system of Russian higher education.

Results: in the work, the team of authors considered the most relevant practices of the work of leading Russian universities in the conditions of sanctions pressure from unfriendly countries. The generalizations made and the accents placed make it possible to generate a general vector of reactionary behavior in the current international educational environment, which should be focused on achieving national educational sovereignty in all areas, as well as expanding the scale of interactions with reliable partners. The formulated comparisons of the directions of sanctions pressure and anti-sanctions measures create conditions for the search for additional reserves for the development of the strategic potential of the progressive development of Russian higher education.

Key words: higher education, sanctions, Russia, international cooperation, educational potential, educational space.

ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT IN CHINA: STATUS, PROBLEMS, PROSPECTS

Environmental management is a systems design that addresses many aspects simultaneously. In view of the objective situation, a mechanism for comprehensive coordination and management of the ecological environment arises. Interdependence has formed between the state and public organizations, but the relationship between them is still asymmetrical, which is manifested in the strong position of the state and the relatively weak position of other government entities. The powers and responsibilities of Party and government actors in environmental management are simultaneously increasing, and the management responsibilities of Party and government leading cadres are becoming more prominent. It is necessary to immediately strengthen the status and role of public organizations in environmental management. The way to optimize environmental management under conditions of asymmetrical relations, when various entities in competition cannot break through the restrictions of “intra-system circulation”, is to adhere to the comprehensive leadership of the Party, create a market-oriented competition mechanism and environment for environmental management, and also explore and create a transformation mechanism from one-way input to a complementarity strategy. Ultimately, under the leadership of the Party and the government, we will continue to improve the comprehensive coordination mechanism in the field of environmental culture, and constantly improve the efficiency of environmental management.

Key words: environmental management, problem, optimization.

RESEARCH OF A NEW STRATEGY FOR THE DEVELOPMENT OF THE EAST OF RUSSIA AND CHINESE-RUSSIAN REGIONAL ECONOMIC COOPERATION

Changing the social and political system in the 90s, the issue of the development of the East of Russia has become more urgent than ever before for Russian society, which, due to its spatial position, lack of effective infrastructure and favorable conditions for doing business, cannot independently realize its geopolitical and economic potential without the support of federal authorities, despite the vastness and scale of territories, rich natural resources, which determines the relevance of this study. The object of the study is the East of Russia as a regional element of the national economy, the subject of the study is the closeness of ties and cooperation between Russia and China. The purpose of the study is to consider the qualitative new prospects and state of economic cooperation between Russia and China. The study argues for the fact that the decline in industrial activity and the potential of the East of Russia at the end of the last century caused serious socio-economic problems, transforming the regional into a resource, thereby contributing to the mass migration of the population from the Far East to the European part of Russia. Cooperation and deepening of inter-economic ties between Russia and China will contribute to the economic and social development of the territories, creating a favorable environment for doing business.

Key words: cooperation, Russian-Chinese cooperation, cooperation programs, economic ties, regional economy.

The article analyzes the policy of the Visegrad Group countries as independent subjects of international relations and members of the association in the dynamics from the moment of the conclusion of the Declaration to the present.

The purpose of the work: based on the analysis of the declarations and materials of the Visegrad Group and the facts testifying to the implementation of the policies of the member countries of the group, to assess the prospects for the existence of the association in conditions of turbulence.

Having emerged in the early 90s of the twentieth century in the space of former socialist states, the V4 implemented the main declared goals partially: It contributed to the accession of countries to NATO (1997) and the EU (2004), but it did not form institutionally, internal integration was not achieved, and some of the goals turned out to be unrealizable due to divergent positions.

The analysis shows that while maintaining the exchange rates of the participating countries, despite the existing potential, the prospects for turning the Visegrad Group into an independent regional pole in Central Europe within the framework of the emerging multipolar world cannot be assessed as favorable, respectively, the group will continue to exist rather as a regional situational forum.

Key words: Visegrad Group, Central European Region, Eastern Partnership, national interests, traditional values, Free Trade Agreement, Central European Free Trade Association.

EVOLUTION OF COOPERATION BETWEEN RUSSIA AND THE CENTRAL AFRICAN REPUBLIC: MILITARY AND POLITICAL ASPECTS

This article analyzes the cooperation between Russia and the Central African Republic in the military sphere and on the international arena. The arms embargo imposed by the UN in 2013 in response to widespread violence in the country is no longer adequate to restore a combat-ready national army. Russian representatives in the UN Security Council are consistently promoting the idea of completely lifting all imposed restrictions. French initiatives, as well as the presence of the French military contingent in 2013-2016 did not bring peace to the Central African Republic. Russian assistance turned out to be more effective, and the Khartoum Agreement became the first serious basis for achieving reconciliation. The author comes to the conclusion that, despite the difficulties and political tensions with Western countries, Russia was able to achieve significant results in a short period of time and made a great contribution to resolving the internal political crisis in the Central African Republic.

Key words: Russia, military assistance, Central African Republic, Russian instructors, embargo.

PUBLIC POLICY AND PUBLIC SECURITY

Public policy is the official policy carried out by government authorities. Public policy is inextricably linked with ensuring public security. In the modern world, terrorism continues to be used as a tool of geopolitics. People who have become victims of irresponsible experiments to remove “undesirable” regimes, which have led to complete destabilization of the internal situation in a number of countries, have experienced and are experiencing enormous shocks. Russian public authorities have at their disposal many useful mechanisms with which they can ensure public security not only within their territorial borders, but also weaken the terrorist international, as well as ensure the security of world countries and citizens.

Key words: public policy, public security, domestic and foreign policy, terrorism, world community, extremism, public administration, government.

PROBLEMS OF POLITICAL COOPERATION IN THE SHANGHAI COOPERATION ORGANIZATION

Over the two decades of its development, the SCO has transformed from a regional cooperation mechanism focused primarily on security cooperation into a transregional international organization covering the widest geographical area and largest population in the world, including a wide range of areas of cooperation and having significant achievements in political cooperation . Compared to some regional international organizations that are currently experiencing bottlenecks in their development or are facing crisis situations, the SCO has not only maintained a strong development momentum, but has also achieved an expansion of its membership for the first time, which indicates its high viability. It is expected that the entry of India and Pakistan into the SCO will lead to new successes in the development of global and regional governance, coordination of relations between member states in strategic areas, as well as the development of mutually beneficial cooperation between member states.

Key words: Shanghai Cooperation Organization, political cooperation, expansion of membership.

PROSPECTS OF RUSSIA-BELARUS INTEGRATION UNDER THE BACKGROUND OF RUSSIA-UKRAINE CONFLICTS

In December 1991, the Soviet Union disintegrated into 15 independent countries. These countries have adopted different foreign policies and kept a certain political distance from Russia out of consideration of their own interests, while Belarus and Russia are getting closer. From the initial “The Community of Belarus and Russia” to the “Union of Belarus and Russia”, and finally the “Union State of Russia and Belarus”, the integration of Russia and Belarus has just gone through 27 years of ups and downs by 2023. Cooperation in many fields and certain results have been achieved, which is regarded as model of Eurasian integration. However, constraints still exist inside and outside the Union State to hinder the development of integration, and the goals set have not been fully realized. The article will start from the perspective of the origin and influencing factors of the integration of Russia and Belarus, and finally make a reasonable prediction of the development trend of the Union State under the background of Russia-Ukraine conflicts.

CLASH AND INTERACTION OF ETHICAL-POLITICAL IDEAS OF LAOZI AND KONGZI AS A PRACTICAL CONCEPTUAL BASIS OF THE POLITICAL CULTURE OF ANCIENT CHINA

The article examines the influence of two philosophical-religious and ethical-political teachings of China: Taoism and Confucianism. An analysis of these teachings in connection with the formation of political culture is proposed, similarities and differences in the processes of their formation and development are highlighted, the attitude of Confucianism and Taoism to more ancient religious traditions is revealed. The analysis shows that Confucianism and Taoism have retained some of the principles of primitive religion. The author comes to the conclusion that the coexistence of these teachings resulted in the emergence of a kind of symbiosis of neo-Confucian and neo-Taoist teachings, the elements of influence of which are observed in modern China. The rules of "Xiao" or filial piety, as well as a number of other moral principles of Taoism, correspond to the principles of Confucianism. Both teachings are united by a number of more ancient traditional ethical and religious norms. Significant differences in religious terms are as follows: Taoism in its religious form is a typical variety of polytheism, while Confucianism rigidly constitutes the traditional uniting cult of the emperor and Heaven. The practical conceptual base of modern China in its foreign and domestic policy successfully combines the experience of the ethical-political and philosophical discourse of both schools under consideration.

Key words: Confucianism, Taoism, ideology, political philosophy, ethics, culture, politics, doctrine.

HISTORY OF THE FAMILY OF NOVOROSSIAN ENTREPRENEURS BOGDASAROV (FOLLOWING V.I. KOLESOV’S RESEARCH)

Formation of ideas about the socio-cultural features of the Russian province of the late XIX – early XX centuries. Is impossible without an analysis of the development of local entrepreneurship, the basis of which was the merchant class. Most often, the business was family-owned, so it is relevant to study the history of merchant families.

In the proposed article, the author examines the activities of the merchant family of the Bogdasarovs, who lived in the city of Novorossiysk in the late 19th – early 20th centuries. In the course of writing the article, the author applied a retrospective method, as well as historical and interdisciplinary approaches.

In this work, directories and address-calendars were used, with the help of which the addresses of trade enterprises, the approximate amount of income and turnover, and the number of workers were determined. The materials of the Department of Archives of the Moscow Region of Novorossiysk helped to establish the exact composition of the Bogdasarov family, the degree of their participation in charity and public life. The regional periodicals of the time under consideration contributed to understanding the general trends in the development of the area.

As a result of the study, it was found that the basis of the Bogdasarov family business was manufacturing trade. The younger generation was also engaged in the production of beer, the sale of wine and spirits. The family took an active part in public life and charity.

Key words: Circassians, Bogdasarovs, merchant family, entrepreneurship, Novorossiysk, manufactured goods.

PROBLEMS OF FORMATION OF A SINGLE RURAL-URBAN SPACE OF THE REGION

The formation of a single rural-urban space is the most important issue in the trend of urbanization of the population due to the factors of demography, globalization of inter-economic relations and integration of territories.

MOTIVATION FOR POLITICAL PARTICIPATION IN A LIBERAL DEMOCRACY

The article examines the problem of the legitimacy of the political organization of society. It is emphasized that institutional stability is determined by the consent of the people with the political decisions taken by the authorities. The issue of legitimization of the regime "from above" is being actualized. It is argued that an individual has an interest in political participation in the context of satisfying his vital needs. Particular importance is attached to the formation of the psychological dominant of an individual's behavior. Attention is focused on two main parameters of political participation: autonomous and mobilized. The article substantiates the position that the individual's feeling of himself as a political subject generates autonomous political participation. It is concluded that the field of autonomous participation in liberal democracy objectively narrows, which leads to a rigid type of centralized government.

INSTITUTIONAL SPECIFICITY OF THE STATE CIVIL SERVICE OF TAJIKISTAN

In this article, the authors analyzed the features of the public service as a political and legal institution. During the consideration of the topic in the system of statehood, the importance of this institution was noted. First of all, the focus of the study is the content of the civil service, its relationship with citizens and its role in the system of executive power.

One of the most important aspects considered by the authors is the application of the experience of neighboring countries and strategic partners. Obviously, after the collapse of the Soviet Union, each country, based on its national interests and priorities, determined the direction of its state. Meanwhile, a single model of civil service among the post-Soviet countries laid the foundation for joint integration. From this point of view, the reform and modernization of the civil service institution are considered against the background of external experience.

Key words: civil service, citizenship, executive power, foreign experience, institutional approach.

TECHNOLOGIES TO COUNTER THE DESTRUCTIVE INFLUENCE OF THE RUSSIAN NON-SYSTEMIC OPPOSITIONS IN RUNET

The article is dedicated to the algorithm and key technologies for countering destructive information flows of the RUnet generated by actors of the Russian non-systemic opposition. It is noted that with the beginning of a special military operation in Ukraine, the Russian non-systemic opposition has actually lost its own political subjectivity and acts as one of the instruments of external information pressure on Russia. The author's algorithm for countering non-systemic opposition in RUnet social media is proposed, which includes six stages: organizational, monitoring, expert-analytical, neutralizing, reformatting and reflexive. Four technological blocks of such counteraction are identified: reactive, preventive, reframing and inclusive.

Key words: non-systemic opposition, destructive information flow, counteraction technologies, «fakes», non-systemic actors, preventive technologies, monitoring.

DISCOURSE OF DIGITALIZATION AND DEMOCRATIZATION: NEW APPROACHES, RISKS AND THREATS

The relevance and complexity of analyzing the processes of mutual influence of digitalization and democratization is caused by the inconsistency of public perception of the processes of introducing digital solutions and information technologies into the life of society. It would seem that digital technologies aimed at making life easier for society and improving the quality of life have influenced all processes of the functioning of society: social, economic, political, cultural. The modern citizen is increasingly immersed in the world of digital technology. Digitalization and technology have an active role in political processes, in the democratization of society, and in the interaction of political actors and citizens. The impact of digital technologies on social processes has resulted in the social risks of misinformation of society, the introduction of false impulses for social development, guided by economic and political global networks. These aspects are only partially touched upon in this article, since digital risks and threats to the stability of the development of social processes in many countries of the world are just becoming a reality.

Key words: digitalization, democratization, technology, social development, politics.

PECULIARITIES OF PARTICIPATION OF RUSSIAN BUSINESS ASSOCIATIONS IN THE SYSTEM OF GOVERNMENT DECISION-MAKING

The article deals with the problems of formation of the modern system of participation of business associations in the processes of public decision-making in Russia. Russian business associations emerge to articulate and protect the interests of the entrepreneurial community, and today they represent the most involved group of interests in the processes of elaboration and adoption of state decisions. It is shown that the involvement of Russian business associations in the interaction with public authorities had a contradictory character and was largely due to the peculiarities of the development of Russian statehood. The article substantiates the conclusion that the Russian model of interaction between the state and business associations is developing as a corporatist model, characterized by the identification of key associations, which occupy a leading position in interaction with the state. The trends in the development of this model are outlined, the main of which is to improve the quality of interaction between business associations and the state in the context of various political and economic changes in the external environment. We also analyze the main problems that hinder the formalization and institutionalization of such interaction, such as the lack of a fixed status of Russian business associations and legal framework for their activities, which is fraught with continuing difficulties for the stable balanced nature of these relationships.

Key words: Business associations, government decision-making system, representation of interests, business community, lobbying, GR-technologies, neo-corporativism.

THE EVOLUTION OF THE ROLE OF ISLAM IN THE POLITICAL LIFE OF TURKEY IN THE 20TH CENTURY

The issue of the relationship between religion and politics in contemporary societies occupies a key place in global humanitarian science. Of particular interest is Islam, which experienced a dramatic political revitalization in the 1980s, even giving rise to the term "political Islam," the substance and application of which are still debated amongst the academic community. This article uses the term in its widest sense to mean the totality of diverse political movements, ideological currents and government policies striving to give Islam an influence on political processes.

Turkey is an interesting example of the intermittent evolution of the role of political Islam, from the total subjugation of religion to the state in the early republican period to the victory of the Islamist 'Welfare Party' in the 1995 general election, followed again by a sharp contraction in the role of religion after the post-modernist coup in 1997 and subsequent stable growth under the 'Justice and Development Party' from 2002 to the present day.

The article breaks down the evolution of the role of Islam in Turkey during the 20th century into a series of periods and identifies the key characteristics of each. Summing up, it states that globalization and modernization of Turkish society have engendered a need for a modern Islam embracing the concepts of political democracy, religious tolerance, the rule of law and a free market economy. This distinguishes Turkey from other countries in the Middle East, where modernist interpretations of Islam have been unable to overcome deep-rooted religious conservatism.

Key words: Republic of Turkey, political Islam, Kemalism, N. Erbakan, Millî Görüş movement.

FEATURES OF FORMATION OF INTELLECTUAL CAPITAL IN RUSSIA AS A FACTOR OF ENSURING NATIONAL SECURITY UNDER SANCTIONS

Introduction: the article discusses the features of the formation of intellectual capital in Russia in conditions of global instability. The team of authors concludes that given the current geopolitical situation, it is necessary to greatly increase the intensity of solving the problem of ensuring national security. At the same time, it is important to understand that national security is a complex and multifaceted concept, the provision of which requires the involvement of a wide range of areas of public policy. One of the most pressing factors in achieving national security is expanding the potential of sovereign intellectual capital. In the conditions of a hybrid war, the importance of the formation of intellectual capital increases many times, which requires constant improvement of approaches to its management. From the perspective of ensuring the maximum level of national security, the importance of intellectual capital can be expressed in the following functions: educational, which consists in organizing the patriotic and spiritual and moral education of the younger generation; scientific, forming the foundation for the development of sovereign scientific potential and generating achievements of scientific and technological progress; educational, which consists of increasing the general level of education of society and its ability for evolutionary development; professional, training of qualified personnel for the national labor market, taking into account the current technological formation.

Purpose and objectives: the purpose of the work is to study the features of the formation of intellectual capital in Russia as a factor in ensuring national security under sanctions. In order to achieve this goal, the following tasks were solved:

– justify the relevance of managing the country’s intellectual capital in conditions of global instability and geopolitical pressure;

– perform diagnostics of key indicators of the functioning of the educational environment for the development of intellectual capital in the Russian Federation;

– characterize the dynamics of the integral index of the level of education and qualifications;

– analyze the degree of development of the intellectual potential of the teaching environment in the higher education system of the Russian Federation.

Results: in the work, the team of authors examined the key aspects of the formation of intellectual capital in Russia as a factor in ensuring national security under sanctions. The main focus of the study is aimed at characterizing the educational and scientific segments of intellectual capital. In the noted fairway, a diagnosis of key indicators of the functioning of the educational environment for the development of intellectual capital in the Russian Federation was carried out, an analysis was made of the degree of development of the intellectual potential of the teaching environment in the higher education system, an assessment was made of the dynamics of the integral index of the level of education and qualifications, as well as the dynamics of investments in fixed capital in the field of scientific research and developments. The generalizations made in the work make it possible to create an up-to-date information base for increasing the quality of management decision-making in the focus of expanding the potential of national intellectual capital.

Key words: intellectual capital, education, sanctions, national security.

PARTICIPATION OF THE USSR IN THE INTERNAL POLITICAL LIFE OF CHINA (1918-1927)

The article examines the participation of the USSR in the internal political life of China from 1918 until the severance of diplomatic relations between China and the USSR in 1927. The relevance of the study is due to the strengthening of the People's Republic of China in the international arena. An analysis of the factors of strengthening the leading position of the PRC was carried out. It is noted that the formation of the modern Chinese system in the 20s of the 20th century and the Chinese socialist state were influenced by relations with the USSR. It has been determined that the Soviet Union not only actively helped the formation of communist China, but also took an active role in the unification of national liberation movements, and also took a direct part in the creation of the Kuomintang. The contradictions that were brewing in the Kuomintang in the struggle for power were revealed. It is concluded that despite the rupture of diplomatic relations, the subsequent serious support of the USSR (military, financial, foreign and domestic) for the communist policies of China contributed to the formation of Chinese statehood. At the same time, the national-patriotic goals of the National Government of China gradually took a course towards cooperation, political stability and participation in international affairs.

PREREQUISITES FOR THE FORMATION OF THE INDO-PACIFIC SYSTEM OF REGULATION OF INTERNATIONAL RELATIONS IN THE CONTEXT OF INDIA'S FOREIGN POLICY

The relevance of the study of the prerequisites for the formation of the Indo-Pacific regional system of regulation of international relations is justified by the evolution of the Indian foreign policy paradigm in the context of the development of a polycentric system of international relations.

The aim of the study is to identify internal and external factors that determine each other and influence India's pragmatic foreign policy, which is focused on achieving the status of India as a regional power and the center of the emerging regional system of regulation of international relations in the Indo-Pacific region.

To solve research problems, systemic, actor, geopolitical and geoeconomic methodological approaches were applied. The study also used the linguistic-legal method in interpreting the constitutional and legal norms that establish the principles of the state structure and the priorities of the state policy of the Republic of India, as well as the comparative method in studying the approaches of India and other actors of the regionalization of political processes to the implementation of the concept of multipolarity.

As a result of the study, the following main conclusions were substantiated. The Republic of India is a promising candidate for achieving the status of the center of the Indo-Pacific regional system for regulating international relations, capable of responsibly representing the interests of the entire region in a multipolar world. The political system of India can be used as a model of the Indo-Pacific regional system for regulating international relations.

The prerequisites for the formation of India's special status in a multipolar world are: the pragmatic nature of India's foreign policy focused on the development of regional leadership; India's geopolitical subjectivity arising as a result of rapid economic development; intuitively understandable to representatives of Indian culture organicism in matters of state development; backlog of decentralized state administration and non-legal regulation of public relations; the national identity of India, which implies a combination of attitudes towards the preservation of cultural identity and the recognition of cultural pluralism.

Key words: foreign policy of India, Indo-Pacific region, regionalization of political processes, decentralized global regulation of international relations, polycentricity, multipolarity.

THE HISTORY OF STUDYING THE ROLE OF PRIVATE MILITARY COMPANIES IN INTERNATIONAL ARMED CONFLICTS DURING THE COLD WAR (1960-1980s)

From a scientific point of view, private military companies are an extremely interesting and, at the same time, relatively little-studied phenomenon. More and more scientific works of experts in the field of military security, jurisprudence and international relations appear on the subject of research.

The present study, which was written using various general scientific methods, is descriptive and theoretical in nature. This is the first scientific work analyzing the sources of the 1960s-1980s, which consider private companies of a military nature. This period is of great scientific interest, as scientific understanding and understanding of the role and place of private military companies in armed conflicts is just beginning to take shape.

In the works under consideration, the authors analyze the effectiveness of private military companies in the field of technical support and training of army units, and for the first time study the possibility of involving these structures by states in their interests.

As a result of writing the work, we can say that the period of the 1960s-1980s is the beginning of the scientific study of the phenomenon of PMCs and consideration of various problems related to the participation of PMCs in armed conflicts. At the same time, the term "private military companies" appears in the scientific literature.

IMPACT OF GEOPOLITICAL COMPETITION BETWEEN REGIONAL AND EXTRA-REGIONAL ACTORS IN THE CASPIAN SEA REGION ON KAZAKHSTAN'S FOREIGN POLICY

The Caspian Sea, located in Eurasia, is the core of the Central Asian-Caspian region, which is unique in geopolitical terms and has historically been a "hotbed" of rivalry between nations and powers. More importantly, in the 21st century, the Caspian region remains the most strategically important "world energy treasure trove", and its rich oil and gas resources attract countries from around the world to participate in energy competition in the region. After the collapse of the Soviet Union in 1991, five independent sovereign states (Iran, Azerbaijan, Russia, Kazakhstan and Turkmenistan) were formed on the territory of the Caspian region, which brings us to the essence of the issue of demarcation of the Caspian region borders, i.e. determination of its legal status. The uncertainty of the legal status of the Caspian Sea will have a significant impact on the use of water resources and exploitation of oil resources. Therefore, the legal status of the Caspian Sea and how it should be divided is a major concern for countries around the world. On August 12, 2018, the presidents of the five Caspian littoral states – Kazakhstan, Russia, Azerbaijan, Iran and Turkmenistan – signed the Convention on the Legal Status of the Caspian Sea in the western city of Aktau in Kazakhstan, which fully takes into account the legal status of the Caspian Sea.

This convention clarifies the rights and obligations of the countries, taking full account of the real needs of the littoral states for political stability, as well as the real issues of promoting the development of the Caspian Sea region and protecting the region's natural resources. Kazakhstan borders the Caspian Sea to the west, so the Caspian Sea region has an important political, economic and environmental impact on Kazakhstan. In general, the geopolitical competition between the Caspian Sea region and extra-regional actors has a significant impact on Kazakhstan's foreign policy. By pursuing a diversified foreign policy, Kazakhstan tends to seek a balance with various powers and maximize its own national interests.

Key words: Geopolitical competition, regional games, foreign policy.

THE PROSPECTS OF THE GERMAN-CHINESE ECONOMIC COOPERATION IN THE CHANGING WORLD

The relevance of the study is due to the fact that in 2022-2023. The Federal Republic of Germany is in the midst of an energy crisis that risks developing into a structural crisis of the economy. In parallel, Germany declares its refusal to expand cooperation with the People's Republic of China. Large-scale economic cooperation between Germany and China and its possible immediate prospects have been studied. Both the political and economic components of the relationship between Germany and China are comprehensively analyzed, as well as the possibility of developing relations of complex interdependence between Germany and the PRC and the prospects for the development of Russian-Chinese ties. The political, economic, and military aspects of the relationship between Germany and China, including existing problems, are consistently examined. It is concluded that with proper allocation of resources, Russia may in the future gain priority over Germany in the structure of China's foreign economy. In addition, Russia is a more important political partner for China than Germany. Regarding the prospects for interaction between Germany and China, the forecast is negative. The trend of the emerging “German-Chinese cooperation pie” is gradually becoming less and less significant.

Key words: Germany, China, complex interdependence, business-as-usual, conditionality, investment cooperation.

The energy policy determines the foreign and domestic policy of the country, the nature and independence of the decisions made, including within the framework of associations of countries. The article provides practical examples of Italy's application of risk management tools in the process of ensuring energy security. It is concluded that the country's proactive position and ability to relatively quickly change priorities in energy policy are in line with the interests of national security, taking into account the vector of European integration. The government clearly follows the chosen energy strategy, applies various risk management tools and fulfills the obligations assumed by the country, despite the country's high energy dependence and a large need for energy resources amid a deteriorating economic situation. Questions about the cost of changing energy policy priorities for Italian taxpayers and households, the short-term and long-term impact of the rejection of Russian energy carriers on the Italian economy, are seen as promising areas for further research in a number of related sciences.

INTERNATIONAL POLITICAL THEORY: MAIN DEVELOPMENT TRENDS

Nowadays the study of international politics has a truly global character. Political relations between states should be studied in the context of various theories, which together constitute the theory of international politics. Among the numerous theories of international relations, the most fundamental one is the the realistic theory. In this article the author analyzes two types of realism as a theory of international relations: the theory of classical realism and the theory of neorealism. The author addresses the issue of the formation of classical realism by appealing to the founders of realist political theory. In addition, the author examines the principles of the constructivist theory of political relations, which is a social theory that argues that important aspects of international relations are shaped by ideological postulates rather than simply material factors.

Key words: international politics, international relations, realism, neo-realism, constructivism.

THE REGIONAL POLICY OF THE ARCTIC IN THE FOREIGN POLICY OF RUSSIA AND THE UNITED STATES

The complex geopolitical situation in the world has only emphasized the importance and importance of the Arctic region on the global world stage. The Arctic turned out to be the desired point where it is possible to build up military and political power most quickly by means of mastering transport corridors and communication routes. Another equally important reason for increasing the attractiveness of the Arctic region was the reduction in the volume of ice, which opened up new opportunities for the extraction of natural resources, in particular 22% of the world's oil and gas reserves, presumably located under the waters of the Arctic, in addition to the possibility of mining minerals, diamonds, iron ore and gold. The strategic importance of the Arctic region is also attached to the location at the shortest point for a nuclear missile strike by the Russian Federation and the United States.

Key words: Arctic region, foreign policy, relations between Russia and the United States, rivalry of powers, security, confrontation of world powers, foreign policy of Russia and the United States in the Arctic region.

ANACHRONISMS AND ETHICS OF NEW WARS

War and the ethical problematics of this phenomenon in terms of the new political reality and spatial relation occupy an exceptional position and are of interest from scientific and practical point of view. Being an anachronism, war in Russian literature is considered primarily from the perspective of international relations and history, while the "new wars" are in the plane of ethics and philosophy requiring analysis of its new role. In addition, the subject field of research and the renewal of the nature of war in the XX century due to the transformation of the just war theory raise questions about its ethical component. At the same time, the linguistic concepts of the military and political discourse are being blurred, and as a result of the use of the latest technologies and the widespread of PMCs, cyberattacks and robotic systems while waging "new wars", an accurate definition of the actors of military operations is becoming impossible, while the status of hostilities acquires the character of a grey zone from the point of view of international law.

Key words: new and old wars, anachronisms, ethics of new wars, transformation of wars, hybrid warfare as a new generation of wars, the ethics of armed conflicts, postmodern wars.

POLITICAL LEADERSHIP CLASSICAL AND MODERN APPROACHES TO UNDERSTANDING

Within the framework of this study, the views of various classical and contemporary scholars on understanding the essence and content of the phenomenon of political leadership are reviewed. The problem of studying this topic is that so far there has not been a unified approach to the definition of political leadership in the scientific political environment. A rather wide variety of points of view among political scientists has led to the identification of classical theories of political leadership, which can intertwine with each other, complement each other, but at the same time, in some contemporaries' circles, be perceived as opposite.

Objective: to identify the key advantages and disadvantages of classical and contemporary approaches to understanding the essence of political leadership and to come to a conclusion about which approach is most appropriate to use, perhaps it is best to combine several approaches and put forward a new definition of political leadership, taking into account the advantages of various scientific theories.

Tasks: to consider the scientific approaches of classical scholars to leadership in politics; to study the views of contemporaries on political leadership; to characterize the main advantages and disadvantages of various theories; to formulate the author's own definition of political leadership.

Methods: description, generalization, synthesis, abstraction, idealization, deduction, induction, systematization, research, comparison.

Results: the most famous classical and modern approaches to the definition of the essence and content of the phenomenon of political leadership in the science of political science are highlighted; the author's definition of political leadership is formulated.

Conclusions: throughout the existence of the phenomenon of political leadership, starting from the period of antiquity and ending with the modern digitalization period of the development of political thought, the phenomenon of political leadership has evolved. The evolution of views on political leadership has gone from the perception of a political leader as a hero in ancient times to the formation of his digital image in modern political theory. As a result, the phenomenon of political leadership in its modern interpretation has absorbed various aspects of classical approaches (the theory of heroism, divinity, the great man, the theory of traits, etc.) in their connection with the activity of politicians in the Internet environment.

Key words: politics, leader, scientist, theory, approach, evolution, views, classical, modern, leadership.

DISTRIBUTION OF NATIONAL RESOURCES AS A FUNCTIONAL ASPECT OF MODERNIZATION CRISES

The article considers the distribution of resources within society as a basic function of the political system. It is noted that the nature of the distribution of national resources reflects the degree of effectiveness of political functioning. It is emphasized that political systems that are at the stage of modernization inevitably experience a crisis of resource allocation. The last thesis concerns the strategic level. The reasons for the distribution crisis in modernizing societies and at the tactical level are also indicated. We are talking about the imperfection of the mechanisms of social security and the inefficiency of profit redistribution within society. A generalizing conclusion is made about the permanent nature of the crisis of resource allocation in transitional societies.

Key words: functions of the political system, transitional political systems, national resources, political modernization, dysfunctions of political systems.

PATRIOTIC VALUES OF POLITICS AND THE POLITICS OF PATRIOTIC VALUES IN MODERN RUSSIAN SOCIETY

The article is devoted to the understanding of patriotism not only as a moral value, but more as a political ideology demanded by the Russian political class and Russian society in the context of geopolitical risks and challenges. The conditions and factors of strengthening the civic patriotism of Russians are highlighted on the basis of traditional Russian principles of relations between the state and society, in which the priorities of state interests are obvious. The resources of the formation of a value-based political-patriotic platform for the consolidation of society through the implementation of a targeted doctrinal political and managerial discourse are considered. In the course of the political analysis, the circumstances of the patriotic self-identification of Russian citizens are recorded and at the same time, the problems and contradictions of the "passion for patriotism" as an alternative ideology for the development of Russian society are identified.

THE IMPACT OF GLOBALIZATION ON THE POLITICAL SYSTEM OF THE MODERN STATE

The modern world is developing in the context of globalization, which carries not only positive factors, but also a huge number of threats to society and the development of the state. Along with digitalization, networking and robotization of economic processes, new risks associated with the substitution of ideological values among the population, the development of negative political trends, extremism and other phenomena are coming to the country. In this regard, it is of interest to study the concept of globalization and the factors contributing to its penetration into all aspects of the modern state, affecting the political situation in society, changing approaches and ideologies in the governance of the country. At the same time, many politicians are adherents of globalist ideas, believing that it is this concept that underlies the development of the modern state. However, these ideas should penetrate the political system of the state in a very dosed manner, taking into account the peculiarities of their own state and the risks associated with their introduction into political processes.

The article describes the concept of globalization and its impact on the political development of the modern state. The positive and negative sides are presented, as well as the opportunities that the state can use from this concept in the development of its own political structure.

Key words: globalization, political structure, networking, digitalization, influence, system, development.

"CHERRY ORCHARDS" AND "THE MASTERING MAN": SOME EXAMPLES OF THE REORGANIZATION OF SYMBOLIC POWER IN THE 20TH CENTURY LOCALITY

The relevance of studying the transformation of the living spaces of modern communities through a mastering action as a political act is dictated by the need for further understanding of universalist concepts that have become widespread popular models of political behavior. Referring to the circumstances of generating symbolic power as the most important dimension of the political process of localities is useful from the standpoint of a comprehensive consideration of the rotation of the respective elites and political regimes. Referring to the cases of the XX century allows us to clearly assess the features of the development model in a historical perspective. The purpose of the presented article is to consider individual characteristic examples of the realization of the symbolic potential of subjects mastering the political space of localities, related to the last century – the time of the formation of the development of this model. To achieve this goal, it is necessary to consistently solve the problems of studying the applied management of symbols in politics, assessing the potential of symbolic practices for political involvement and exclusion, considering examples of the use of symbolic power in the struggle for the political space of localities in the XX century. The research uses scientific methods of analogy, analysis and synthesis, deduction and induction. According to the results of the study, conclusions are presented regarding the strategic and tactical aspects of the implementation of symbolic power by the subjects of the development model on a local scale.

MANAGING STAKEHOLDERS OF EURASIAN INTEGRATION: PROBLEM STATEMENT

The complexity of managing the stakeholders of Eurasian integration, which are understood as a variety of factors, arises due to several reasons. A vague understanding of the stakeholders in this process. Ambiguous assessment of integration and its results. The absence of clear boundaries of the categorical apparatus. The author offers a solution to these problems from the standpoint of design and product methodology. This is a new field of opportunities for managing the interests of stakeholders and convergence between them. The article presents the parameters of multidimensional analysis that allow assessing the effectiveness of Eurasian integration. The author comes to the conclusion that with regard to Eurasian integration, there is a request for the development of international standards concerning certain aspects of its management. And one of the first may be the integration stakeholder management standard. Through project standardization, their gradual (adapted) implementation into the activities of stakeholders at different levels is possible.

Key words: Eurasian integration, stakeholders, governance, stakeholder, interests, influence, standard.

JAPANESE VISION OF THE INDO-PACIFIC SPACE

This article discusses the evolution of views on how, according to Japan, the Indo-Pacific region should develop. Abe Shinzo first spoke about this concept, since then the concept of developing a “free and open Indo-Pacific region” has undergone some changes. Since 2017, the concept of the Indo-Pacific has entered the foreign policy lexicon of many powers. It is worth noting that the support of the United States caused enthusiasm in the political circles of Japan. At present, the FOIP concept is considered one of the most successful foreign policy decisions of the S. Abe administration. The current leadership of Kishida Fumio, when drawing up new points for the development of the concept, somewhat departs from the basic principles of the previous administration. This article analyzes the new concept of a "free and open Indo-Pacific region" in the period up to 2030, in which one can observe how the Japanese government seeks to focus on the socio-economic problems of countries that share and contribute to the development of this concept, namely food security, providing humanitarian assistance in cases of natural disasters and new epidemics, solving environmental problems, issues of sea routes, taking measures to strengthen maritime law in the region, developing human capital, etc. It is important to note that the official document showed the security agenda to a greater extent than before, however, it is still not dominant. Analyzing a new vision of the concept of development, we have the opportunity to determine the vector of Japan's movement in the context of the current "turning events" in the international arena.

Key words: Indo-Pacific, Shinzo Abe, Fumio Kishida, Japanese foreign policy, Japan.

LEGAL GROUNDS AND PARTICIPATION DYNAMICS OF THE TUVA REPUBLIC IN RUSSIAN FOREIGN ECONOMIC RELATIONS

The article deals with the problem of participation of the Tuva Republic in Russia’s foreign economic relations. The research goal is to consider the legal foundations of international activity, as well as the dynamics of the subject’s participation in relations with the border regions of foreign countries. The institutional mechanism that ensures the coordination of international and foreign economic relations has not yet been sufficiently studied. At the same time, such a study is necessary for a deeper understanding of relations in the sphere of distribution of subjects of jurisdiction and powers.

The research methodology is based on the political and legal approach and includes the methods of the general scientific group (analysis, synthesis, deduction, induction); as well as a number of special methods: a retrospective political and legal analysis, a statistical method. As materials for the analysis, official statistical data on the main macroeconomic indicators from the Tuva Republic, as well as the main documents of federal and regional legislation regulating foreign economic relations of the constituent entities of the Russian Federation, were used. Based on the results of the study, the author came to the following conclusions: today it is necessary to expand the legislative framework in terms of regulating foreign economic relations of entities with border areas of foreign countries. The dynamics of foreign economic relations of the Tuva Republic is especially positive with the border areas of China and Mongolia, which is due to the successful economic infrastructure.

Key words: international relations, Tuva Republic, foreign economic relations, socio-economic development, border regions.

COUNTERING NETWORK TERRORISM IN THE CONTEXT OF THE FORMATION OF THE INFORMATION SOCIETY

The purpose of the study. The article examines the content and nature of the threat of international terrorism in the conditions of advanced development of communication technologies; describes the resource potential of social networks in activating and changing the nature of modern terrorist activity. The experience of countries and institutions in the fight against international network terrorism is analyzed. The purpose of the study is to analyze and summarize international experience, as well as to detail problematic issues and prospects for combating network terrorism.

Conclusions. As a result of the study, the authors conclude that the development of social networks has recently facilitated contacts between representatives of different countries, but at the same time led to the spread of extremist ideas around the world. The authors conclude that, taking into account the global trend towards the expansion and spread of social networks, this factor of the modern world should be analyzed in the context of ensuring international security.

DYNAMICS OF CHEMICAL POLLUTION IN THE NORTHERN CASPIAN SEA IN THE CONTEXT OF ENVIRONMENTAL SECURITY AND SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT OF THE REGION

Under the conditions of increasing technogenic impact on the biosphere in the world more and more attention is paid to the sustainable development of society in harmony with the natural environment and the interests of current and future generations, in particular, the rational use and reproduction of natural resources, the prevention of the negative impact of economic and other activities on the environment and the elimination of its consequences. Within the framework of achieving Sustainable Development Goal [19], namely the conservation and sustainable use of the oceans, seas and marine resources, the authors conducted a study of the dynamics of chemical pollution of the northern part of the Caspian Sea water area in order to obtain the possibility of further forecasting of the emerging environmental situation in the region. The main sources, scales and natural-climatic peculiarities of the introduction of priority pollutants into the marine environment were considered. On the basis of generalization and detailed analysis of materials on this problem it is shown that the growing exploitation of hydrocarbons, as well as the discharge of industrial and agricultural wastewater in the absence of an effective system of regulation has already led to unprecedented levels of chemical pollution of components of the marine ecosystem. Thus, the content of petroleum hydrocarbons and phenols in the waters of the Northern Caspian in recent years steadily exceeds the established maximum permissible levels.

Key words: Northern Caspian Sea, sustainable development, environmental situation, chemical pollution, phenols, petroleum hydrocarbons.

POLITICAL INTERACTION OF THE RUSSIAN FEDERATION AND SOUTH AFRICA: BILATERAL AND MULTILATERAL FORMATS

The article examines the genesis and evolution of bilateral relations between the Russian Federation and the Republic of South Africa, which at the present stage are of particular importance for the Russian side against the backdrop of political transformations taking place in the world community, including attempts to limit Russia's participation in international processes. The purpose of the work is to identify internal and external factors, both bringing together and separating the two countries from each other. The event analysis of the content and circumstances of the official meetings of the Russian Federation and South Africa at the highest level made it possible to determine the potential of the «platforms» used for political interaction between the two countries, including the prospects for the development of BRICS diplomatic mechanisms and the establishment of ties between Eurasian and African integration structures. By discourse analysis of statements and interviews of representatives of the ruling elites of the Russian Federation and South Africa, the official positions of the two states regarding emerging conflict or disputes in specific regions or in relations with each other, which can either strengthen or weaken the intensity of Russian-South African political interaction, were revealed. In particular, for example, the events around the Arab Spring, which prompted South Africa to cooperate with the BRICS countries, or the Ukrainian crisis, which limits the implementation of certain formats of contact between the Russian Federation and South Africa.

Key words: Russian Federation, Republic of South Africa, BRICS, Russia-Africa Partnership Forum, national interests, dual diplomacy, Arab Spring, Ukrainian crisis.
