SOME PRECEDENTS AND PROBLEMS OF ENSURING ENERGY SECURITY OF THE EU COUNTRIES

The European Union is characterized by a high level of energy dependence on Russia. To minimize dependence on Russia, the EU must strengthen its ties with other energy sources, where the Caspian region can play a key role. Access to new sources does not mean that the EU can meet its demands, because Russia will remain an important source of energy, but, conversely, by diversifying the EU will be more "protected" from Russian pressure. As for the diversification of EU energy sources, the energy projects of the transit countries play a very important role. The Balkan region, thanks to its geostrategic position, can play a vital role in this matter. Security and stability are directly related to ensuring the EU's energy security. The case with Ukraine clearly shows the importance of transit countries in ensuring energy security, therefore the EU should pay special attention to the potential and significance of the Balkan region.

Key words: energy security, European Union, TAP.

ON THE QUESTION OF THE CONSTITUTIONAL AND LEGAL BASIS OF THE FRG

The article attempts to analyze some of the key aspects of the constitutional and legal norms that underlie the basis of a federal structure of Germany. It is shown that the ideas and values of federalism are rooted in the history of this country. However, having studied the text of the Basic Law of the Federal Republic of Germany, adopted in 1949 with the relevant amendments throughout its history, it was concluded that the German federation is a radical break with the Nazi regime, existing before the end of the Second World War. Substantiated the thesis that the Basic Law, which serves as the foundation for a very viable political democracy, has become one of the most successful of constituent documents in the history of Germany.

Key words: Germany, West Germany, East Germany, the federation, federalism, the Basic Law, the constitution, the state, politics, land and others.

POLITICAL MARKET IN RUSSIA: STAGES OF FORMATION AND DYNAMICS OF DEVELOPMENT

The article analyzes formation and development of political market in Russia. The author focuses on the following problems of the object of research: time of appearance, periodization and dynamics of development. According to the suggested theory all market players including common people are classified as active ones and passive ones, sellers and buyers. At the same time, market players often act as both sellers and buyers. Some elements of political market existed back in the USSR, however, lack of democracy was the main factor that hindered development of a fully-realised market representing a system of stable socio-political relations that deal with political products exchange and take into account free competition, and supply and demand. Political changes of 1980s, related to M. Gorbachev’s coming to power, led to appearance of political and economic markets. Since then domestic political market has gone through five stages of development. Each of them represents a certain step: appearance, formation, growth, stagnation and volatility. The second and the third steps turned out to be the most difficult ones because they took place in times of crisis that affected all social spheres; the shelling of the Congress of People's Deputies and the Supreme Soviet occurred at that time as well, in October, 1993. V. Putin’s coming to power in 2000 marked a fundamental swing in market growth direction: the state significantly enhanced its presence and control in the market through various techniques and methods, thus supporting its stabilization and stagnation. Burst of activity in political market in 2011-2013 did not lead to drastic changes in existing situation. At the same time periodical ups and downs in the market are not unusual because similar phenomena are typical of any economic market.

Key words: political market, political marketing, history of the USSR, post-Soviet Russia, elections, democracy, electorate.
