RELIGIOUS ACTIVITY OF DAGESTAN WOMEN IN THE FIRST HALF OF THE 19th – BEGINNING OF THE 20TH CENTURIES
In Dagestan, religion played an important role in the system of family and social life during the period under study. In this period of time, the Dagestani woman had certain rights and privileges. According to the norms of Islam, a Dagestani woman had the right to claim an inheritance.
At the same time, the share of inheritance granted to daughters was half as much as to male representatives. In the regional archive of the Republic of Dagestan, we found materials on the compilation of a "nazru" (will) in which fathers gave most of their inheritance to their daughters, contrary to the prescriptions of Sharia law.
A separate aspect of the article deals with interfaith marriages that took place in the everyday life of Dagestanis. Most often, interfaith marriages were concluded in the flat part of the region. In the special ethnographic literature we find the facts of marriages between Kumychkas and Russian and Georgian officers. According to the norms of Sharia, a gentile had to convert to Islam. As a rule, such acceptance was of a formal nature. After marriage, a man, as a rule, returned to the profession of his religion.
The article also indicates the role of women in the managerial function of Dagestan possessions. Despite the fact that religious norms did not prohibit women from holding senior positions in public administration, such facts were practically absent.
Key words: Sharia, gender, Islam, khanate, imam, Qadi.

HISTORICAL EXPERIENCE OF PERSONNEL TRAINING FOR SUDAN IN SOVIET UNIVERSITIES
After 1960, the educational situation in Africa became extremely unfavorable for young independent countries, since they did not have the opportunity to train their own personnel. As a result of the policy pursued by Western colonial countries to exploit the continent in time, meeting only their economic interests, the African continent was in dire need of specialists for the development of the national economy. The article examines the role of the USSR in supporting African countries in the field of science and higher education, and analyzes Soviet-Sudanese scientific cooperation and personnel exchange. The purpose of this work is to study the historical experience of the USSR in maintaining and developing cooperation in the framework of training personnel for Sudan in Soviet universities.

LOCAL SELF-GOVERNMENT AND TRANSFORMATION PROCESSES IN RUSSIA: VECTORS AND TRAJECTORIES OF DEVELOPMENT
The article examines the trends in the development of local self-government in the Russian Federation and analyzes these trends from the point of view of their compliance with the general orientation of transformational processes.
It is shown that the development of the institution of self-government in modern Russia fits into a more general trajectory of development, which can be designated as "from democratic transit to authoritarian shift". It is concluded that in the field of local self-government, this trajectory manifests itself in changing the legal foundations of local self-government (the adoption of Federal laws on local self-government in different years and amendments to the Constitution of the Russian Federation in terms of local self-government); in changing the conceptual interpretation of local self–government (from public to state and to hyperstate concepts); and in changing its institutional organization (from species diversity and institutional independence to unification and integration into the vertical of power). Thus, in the sphere of local self-government, the authoritarian shift manifests itself as an increase in institutional dependence on the state and integration into a single system of public power.
In a situation of authoritarian shift, there is a reassessment of the importance of development guidelines. At the present stage, these changes are characterized by a conscious rejection of the strategy of imitation of democracy in favor of strengthening authoritarian tendencies, which are beginning to be assessed as most relevant to cultural, social, and economic realities. Changes in the direction in the trajectory of the development of local self-government and the conceptual interpretation of this institution reflect the ideological and ideological turn in understanding the goals of social development and assessing the significance of various development models in terms of their compliance with domestic socio-cultural patterns occurring in Russian society today.
Key words: local self-government, state power, unified system of public authority, reform political system, institution, institutional organization, transformational processes.

STATE INFORMATION POLICY: SOME MODELS AND THEIR IMPLEMENTATION WITHIN THE FRAMEWORK OF MODERN INTERNET TECHNOLOGIES
The article discusses some models for implementing state information policy in the context of new conditions, which are primarily defined as modern Internet technologies. The state, being one of the defining institutions of information policy, uses the appropriate tools of controlled media in order to form sustainable channels of political communication with society. At the same time, the development of new technologies related to the Internet does not allow the state to exercise full control over the information field. Combining different approaches within the framework of the implementation of the information policy makes it possible to make it more targeted and effective in terms of the goals and objectives set by the state. However, even the development of Internet technologies has not yet led to the leveling of the risks of using "freedom of speech" in the context of a favorable political actor in the conjuncture.
Key words: state information policy, models, Internet technologies, political communication, new media.

THE ROLE OF INSTITUTIONAL AND COGNITIVE FACTORS IN POLITICAL DECISION MAKING AT THE PRESENT STAGE
The article is devoted to the analysis of institutional and cognitive factors in political decision making. The study of the process of making political decisions inevitably entails the need to study ontologies (“pictures of the world”) underlying the strategies and decisions being formed, that is, the need to analyze cognitive structures. Attention is paid to theoretical and methodological aspects: formal and informal institutions, the role of metaphors in discourse analysis, and the principles of cognitive analysis.
Key words: cognitive analysis, metaphors, discourse analysis, pictures of the world, network structures.

ELECTORAL FEATURES OF THE IRKUTSK REGION IN 2010-2023
The article examines the political features of the Irkutsk oblast by analyzing the electoral history of the region. Analysis of the elections shows that the region has a higher level of pluralism than most parts of Russia. The reason for this can be considered the fairly diversified economy of the region, which allows different elite groups to exist simultaneously. However, gubernatorial elections in 2020 and elections to the Legislative Assembly of the Irkutsk region in 2023 show a landslide victory for the ruling party. The analysis of electoral events after 2019 records that the degree of competitiveness of elections at various levels in the Irkutsk region is consistently falling, reaching all-Russian standarts.
Key words: Irkutsk region, electoral statistics, gubernatorial elections, municipal elections.

STRATEGIES FOR PERSUASIVE COMMUNICATION IN SOCIAL NETWORKS AND «DIGITAL BUBBLES»
Introduction: the article discusses the key aspects of using a persuasive communication strategy in social networks, taking into account the use of methods of psychological influence and the formation of digital bubbles. The modern interactive space creates information traps for the individual based on a retrospective assessment of his trace, which significantly limit the degree of expression of critical thinking by providing only the correct content. In this case, the potential for manipulating the creation of a person expands many times over by systematically providing him with template information, and also a one-sided and unipolar picture of the world is generated, within which it is enough to simply make the necessary substitution of concepts. Using a persuasive communication strategy allows you to change a person’s opinion on a particular problem. The basis for the competent use of persuasive strategies in social networks are: firstly, highlighting the zone of acceptance of the interlocutor and broadcasting the shortest but most focused information, secondly, intensive collaboration of arguments and counterarguments within the framework of a «duel of opinions», and thirdly, using social evidence, authoritative opinion, and personalized experience as a verification tool. The target result of using a persuasive communication strategy is the construction in the mind of an individual of a new belief, which will not only be accepted by him, but replicated for other individuals.
Purpose and objectives: the purpose of the work is to consider the strategy of persuasive communication in social networks through the prism of the features of modern interactive communication, taking into account the presence of digital bubbles. The objectives of the study are revealed in the following provisions:
– clarify the essence of persuasion and other methods of psychological influence that are actively used within the framework of communication relationships;
– highlight the features of the modern digital information space, taking into account the growing dominance of social networks;
– characterize the specifics and approaches to building an effective strategy of persuasive communication in social networks in the presence of digital bubbles.
Results: the team of authors in the work provided an interpretation of the mechanism for forming a persuasive communication strategy in social networks under the condition of the existence of digital bubbles. The generalizations made make it possible to highlight the current features of a person’s presence in the digital space, which is subject to transformation by neural networks and has a significant manipulating effect on the perception of reality.
Key words: persuasion, social networks, communications, persuasive strategies, psychological influence, critical thinking, digital bubbles.

DEVELOPMENT OF SOVIET-INDIAN RELATIONS DURING THE INDO-PAKISTAN CONFLICT OF 1971
This article analyzes the main reasons and circumstances of strengthening diplomatic interaction between the USSR and India during the most dramatic events of the Indo-Pakistan conflict of 1971, as well as the most important prerequisites for the conclusion of the Treaty of Peace, Friendship and Cooperation of August 9, 1971, which became the basic document for the formation of de facto allied relations between these states during the Cold War. This agreement that largely determines the strength of bilateral relations between the Russian Federation and India.
The authors highlight both the key turning points in the process of building diplomatic communication, starting from the period when India acquired sovereign status, and the reasons why the parties periodically returned to its activation. The role of the national liberation movement in East Bengal is outlined firstly as an important factor that influenced first the emergence of the South Asian crisis of 1971, and then secondly its favorable resolution for India. Also, using documentary material, the attempts of the United States, acting on the side of Pakistan, to counteract Soviet-Indian cooperation and the results of their activities in this direction are studied.
Based on the results of the study, the conclusions are made regarding the pattern of fruitful and mutually beneficial development of Russian-Indian relations.
Key words: India, USSR, Pakistan, Bengal, Indo-Pakistan conflict.

IDEOLOGICAL TRANSFORMATION OF RUSSIAN COMMUNISTS IN THE POST-SOVIET PERIOD (BASED ON THE CPRF)
The Communist Party of the Soviet Union (in its various variants was one of the most numerous and one of the most influential left-wing parties of the 20th century, maintaining its status as the ruling party for almost 70 years. With the collapse of the Soviet Union and the banning of the CPSU, its former members, not reconciled with the decline of Marxist ideology in the country, began to form new Communist Parties. The largest of them became the Communist Party of the Russian Federation, which has been the main opposition party in the country for 30 years. In its programme documents, the CPRF recognises itself as the successor of the CPSU and the continuer of its ideas. But can the CPRF be considered a full successor of the Soviet Communist Party in terms of ideology? This actualises the content analysis of the CPRF programme in terms of ideological postulates and comparison of the latter with the ideology of the Russian Communist Party-predecessor, as well as the works of classical leftist theorists K. Marx, F. Engels, V. Lenin and I. Stalin, who laid the foundation of the CPSU ideology. The result of this study is the fact that the CPRF has moved away from classical Marxism, characteristic of the modern era, and created its own version of social democracy in synthesis with Russian nationalism, which is uncharacteristic of classical Marxism. To save the party from degradation it is necessary to update the ideology in accordance with the demands of modernity, but there are no prerequisites for such work in the party.
Key words: CPRF, political programme, ideology, modernity, postmodernity.

The results of the study: the US withdrawal from Afghanistan created favorable prerequisites for the promotion of Chinese influence in the region; the state interests of the Central Asian republics are practically not considered due to the lack of national strategies for development and prosperity there.
Conclusions: The United States and China use the economic and political weakness of the Central Asian states, the corruption of elites and the raw orientation of local economies to assert their dominance. The goal is to consistently squeeze out the remnants of Russian influence and prevent the strengthening of the positions of third countries.
Key words: post-Soviet space, Russia, USA, China, Central Asia, confrontation.

CHINA IN RUSSIAN FOREIGN POLICY AND THE USE OF DIGITAL DIPLOMACY (2021-2023)
Amid cut-throat Sino-American competition and informational standoff between Russia and the USA, it would be highly valuably to scrutinize shifts in Russia’s foreign policy towards China and the evolutional trend in digital diplomacy proceeding from the two pivotal official documents published by the Russian government in 2021 and 2023, respectively. The primary strategic goal in Russia's digital diplomatic activity with regards to China manifests itself in use of cutting-edge information technology tools to continue a direct dialogue with the Chinese Internet audience, create a positive image of the Russian state, reach understanding and obtain support by the Chinese people for Russia's foreign policy. This study draws several significant conclusions. Firstly, China has become more important for Russia in its foreign policy. Still, Russia intends to design and build up its relations with China through the lens of the Indian factor in the region. Secondly, the United States has used its digital platforms to shape public opinion following the start of the special military operation, which has put Russia under tremendous public pressure. Therefore, strengthening Sino-Russian relations and voicing position on China's social media platforms appear to be Russia’s timely response to break the "informational isolation". Thirdly, while carrying out activities in digital diplomacy with China, Russia has launched a three-dimensional campaign. It ranges from performance by the official diplomatic institutions, mainstream media and sports stars, which has attained promising results and dramatically improved its national image.
Key words: Russia, Foreign policy, Russian-Chinese relations, Digital diplomacy, Russian-Chinese relations.

POSTCOLONIAL MIGRATION TO WESTERN EUROPEAN COUNTRIES: IDENTITY ISSUES
The article examines the practices of migration from Algeria and Tunisia to France, within the framework of historically established migration routes. The reasons for the mass migration of immigrants from the Maghreb states, the peculiarities of their integration into French society, taking into account the existing differences in identities, are considered. The migration policy model implemented in France at one time caused the separation of migrant communities, which was due to the prevailing attitude on the part of French society, cultural and religious differences and the impossibility of integration into the French national identity. Currently, migrant communities contrast themselves to French society to a certain extent, which generates an appropriate reaction from local residents.
Key words: migration, migration policy, migration processes, identity, France, values.

RUSSIA'S «SOFT POWER» INSTRUMENTS IN THE CENTRAL AFRICAN REPUBLIC: HUMANITARIAN AND INFORMATION ASPECTS
This article analyzes Russia's «soft power» tools in the Central African Republic (CAR). Since 2017, Russia has been providing military assistance to this country in the fight against armed groups. In a few years, Moscow has achieved results that Western countries have not achieved in decades of their presence. However, while military assistance was covered in the world and Russian media, Russia's humanitarian initiatives in the CAR were often unaffected. This research allows filling this gap. The work of the Russian House created in 2021 and interaction with the Central African media are analyzed. The author comes to the conclusion that in the use of Russia's «soft power» instruments in the CAR we can observe a greater coordination of actions, as well as a noticeable bias towards more active involvement of non-state actors.
Key words: Russia, humanitarian aid, «soft power», CAR, media.

POLICY OF INTEGRATION PROCESSES IN THE MODERN WORLD ECONOMY
Introduction: integration processes are an essential component of the development of the world economy and a driver for increasing its potential. Integration is necessary to expand the common space of the world economy, as well as to intensify processes within national economies. The consequence of integration is the growth of export-import activity, the exchange of technological innovations, and the construction of transnational companies in the focus of maximum concentration of capital. The core reason for integration is the need to expand markets and achieve freedom of movement of capital based on the international division of labor. At the same time, current geopolitical conditions have shown the presence of the downside of integration, which is used as a tool of political pressure and a threat to national security. The sanctions imposed against Russia by unfriendly countries highlighted the need for maximum protection of economic sovereignty. The declared stable partnerships were destroyed by the political will of individual leaders and all the built economic integration communications turned out to be ineffective. In the current situation, integration should act as a tool for expanding the potential of the economic sovereignty of the Russian Federation, and the state’s participation in integration mechanisms should occur only through the prism of national benefit and maintaining an acceptable level of independence from external partners. Thus, the world economy is entering a zone of “moderate” integration, which is based on maintaining the necessary export-import activity, but with strict imperatives to ensure national sovereignty.
Purpose and objectives: the purpose of the work is to consider the policy of integration processes in the modern world economy through the prism of Russia’s participation in them. Achieving the set goal occurs as a result of solving the following tasks:
– clarify the essential aspects and current market transformations of international integration;
– conduct an analysis of Russia’s export-import activity in the context of sanctions from unfriendly countries;
– assess the participation of the Russian Federation in the international movement of investment capital in the current climate of geopolitical turbulence.
Research results: the author's team summarized the results of analytical diagnostics of Russia's participation in the integration processes of the world economy in the conditions of geopolitical instability. The research materials present the results of an up-to-date assessment of export-import activity and the dynamics of the movement of investment capital. The conclusions drawn expand the overall picture of the consequences of sanctions pressure and specify the tools to counter the policies of unfriendly countries.
Key words: integration, world economy, export, import, foreign economic turnover, world economy, import substitution, investment, economic sovereignty, international division of labor.

DEMOCRACY AND POLITICAL CULTURE IN LEBANON
Political culture is a major factor in shaping the attitudes and behavior of the political character between the rulers and the governed, and so its importance is that it has become a crucial starting point for political sociology. This article focuses on a qualitative analysis of the characteristics of democracy and Lebanese political culture, examining the direct and indirect links between democracy and political culture, the issues of qualitative interaction between society and the state with the goals of building a democratic regime, and the impact of essential features of political culture on the political system. In the course of the research the author of the article comes to the conclusion about the lack of maturity of the society of Lebanon, which is expressed in the strong dependence of society and the state on confessional formations. Not formed public demand for the formation of democracy due to the insufficient level of political culture of the population of Lebanon hindered the implementation of the modern state project and led the country to the political and economic suffocation, bloody wars, which did not allow it to move forward and develop.

THE IMPACT OF THE CHANGE IN THE BALANCE OF POLITICAL FORCES IN NORTHERN MACEDONIA ON THE COUNTRY'S FOREIGN POLICY
This article examines the impact of the internal political confrontation between the leading political forces of the Republic of North Macedonia on the vector of the country's foreign policy. The authors identify a number of methods and technologies of the political struggle of the party "Social Democratic Union of Macedonia" (SDSM) with the party "Internal Macedonian Revolutionary Organization – Democratic Party for Macedonian National Unity" (VMRO-DPMNE). The established tandem of the SDSM with the Albanian political forces, the artificial destabilization of the state created by them (with the information support of the EU and the supervision of the coup from Washington) in 2015 led to the dismantling of the former pro-Russian political regime led by VMRO-DPMNE. The authors note that with the advent of the new government in Northern Macedonia, relations with Russia have deteriorated significantly. In fact, the pro-Western Macedonian government chose the path of confrontation with Moscow, which was reflected in 2022, when, against the background of a special military operation in Ukraine, Pristina began to supply weapons to Kiev and break off diplomatic contacts with the Russian Federation.

DRIVERS OF THE DOMESTIC POLITICAL COURSE OF MODERN CHINA AS KEY ASPECTS OF THE FORMATION OF REGIONAL DOMINANCE
In the article, the authors turned to an urgent topic – the formation of China's foreign policy is based on the tasks of ensuring and protecting national interests. It is this circumstance that is a special and peculiar fact that China's foreign policy is a continuation of its domestic policy. It can be argued that the PRC's diplomacy is a continuation of domestic politics, when diplomacy should serve domestic policy. The potential attractiveness of Chinese political philosophy serves as a starting point from which researchers should build their judgments about the structure, goals and objectives of the PRC's foreign policy.

EXPLORING THE CONCEPT OF GLOBAL ENVIRONMENTAL GOVERNANCE IMPLIED IN THE BUILDING OF “BEAUTIFUL CHINA” AND “CLEAN” AND A BEAUTIFUL WORLD"
Building "Beautiful China" and "Clean and Beautiful World" are the ultimate goals of Xi Jinping's theory and practice of global environmental governance, which deeply reflects Xi Jinping's concern for the fate of humanity. The construction of "Beautiful China" and "Clean and Beautiful World" is by no means a literal ecological construction, but contains important connotations for the comprehensive reconstruction of the modern world order. There is a long way to go in their creation, which requires all countries of the world to have a long-term strategic vision and a broad outlook, working together to create and share information. As a responsible developing country, China has made significant contributions and demonstrated great responsibility in global environmental governance.
Key words: building a “Beautiful China”, building a “Clean and Beautiful World”, the concept of global environmental management.

THE INFLUENCE OF THE US MEDIA ON THE FORMATION OF PUBLIC OPINION IN RUSSIA
Nowadays, with the development of information technologies and the transition to the era of the information society, the role of mass media is becoming extremely important. Their impact on political events increases especially strongly, both within individual countries and on a global scale. The media perform many functions, such as the formation of public values, the expression and aggregation of interests, as well as the ability to evaluate and control the activities of the authorities, as well as the mobilization of society. Thus, in modern society, the mass media are not only translators of information, but also active participants in its formation. The purpose of this work is the need for a deeper understanding of the role of Russian and American media on public opinion in the state.
Key words: Mass media, public opinion, state, Constitution, Russia, USA.

A BRIEF ANALYSIS OF THE RESEARCH STATUS OF RUSSIA AND CHINA ON THE SIGNING OF THE RUSSIAN-CHINESE UNION TREATY OF 1896
