MORDEN POLITICAL CULTURE: DEFINING THE NOTION
The notion of political culture is one of the key and comparatively new notions in political science. Although a number of generally accepted definitions of this phenomenon have been worked out some of them can’t be used for adequate research of its essence. The present article is aimed at considering political culture as special part of political heritage, as quality feature of the society political area.
Key words: political culture, political orientation, political valuables, political system, culture.

THE SEARCH FOR UNIVERSAL PATTERNS – R. BUDON'S CRITICAL VIEW ON THE THEORY OF SOCIAL CHANGE
Attempts to identify absolute, universal, timeless laws of the development of human communities are being renewed with enviable constancy. However, the construction of predictive constructions and models encounters many restrictive conditions, exceptions, references to the locality of their application. The article offers a review of ideas related to social change. The central place was occupied by the work of R. Budon «Theories of Social Change: A Critical Appraisal», unfortunately, has not found sufficient response among domestic researchers.
Key words: theories of social change, parameters of social change, endogeneity and exogeneity, structuralism, materialistic and idealistic concepts.

MULTIPLE OPTIONS OF POPULISM INTERPRETATION IN THE MODERN POLITICAL STUDIES
The success of populist parties in the 2019 European Parliament elections cemented the populists' position as a significant new political actor in the European Union. However, there is still no consensus in the academic community about what populism is and what political forces can be characterized as a populist. The article provides an overview of works by foreign and Russian authors on populism, its origins and key characteristics. The author gives the main approaches to the interpretation of the concept of populism and its characteristics. One of the main ideas of the article is that populism is not an ideology or a style of interaction between a politician and voters, but a communication strategy.
Key words: populism, elites, electorate, communication strategy, ideology, elections, European Union.

DRAMATIC EVOLUTION OF STATE-CONFESSIONAL RELATIONS IN THE REPUBLIC OF DAGESTAN IN THE POST-SOVIET PERIOD: FROM RELIGIOUS AND POLITICAL CONFRONTATION TO REGIONAL STABILIZATION
The article examines the process of transformation of state-confessional relations in the Republic of Dagestan in the post-Soviet decades. The author departs from the usual ideas about the Republic as a battlefield between radical Islamic groups, on the one hand, and power structures, on the other. The most important characteristic of the evolution of state-confessional relations in Dagestan can be considered a three-stage transformation along the following line: from the religious and political polarization of the 1990s to the practices of “antiterrorism” of the 2000s and further to the modern stabilization of the socio-political situation in the republic. Religious and political consolidation, to which the Republican society has been moving for the last 7 to 8 years, has had the most beneficial effect on the development of all religious communities of the Republic of Dagestan.
Key words: Republic of Dagestan, state-confessional relations, anti-terrorist discourse, consolidation of religious communities.

The article is devoted to the peculiarities of the development of the regional electoral system of the Crimea, as a unique region, which has experience in implementing the Ukrainian and Russian legislation in the field of electoral law. The analysis of the political parties represented in the political field of the region of the Ukrainian (1991-2014) and Russian (2014-present) periods, and also the legal distinctions acting at this time are presented. The article pays attention to the historical events that influenced the mood of the electorate and determined its choice.
Key words: Crimea, electoral system, political parties, elections.

APPLICATION OF SOCIO-CULTURAL AND INTERACTIONIST APPROACHES IN THE STUDY OF TRANSFORMATIONS OF SOCIO-CULTURAL SPACE
The analysis of transformations of the socio-cultural space assumes the substantiation of the content of the concept and approaches within which the study will be carried out. The purpose of this article is to determine the starting research positions in relation to the study of coherence (interrelation) of the processes of socio-cultural transformations carried out both in Russian society and beyond. But since the solution of this problem requires many years of not only theoretical but also empirical research, as well as generalization of the research results already accumulated by both us and colleagues in Russia and abroad, we limit ourselves in this article to defining basic concepts and approaches. Thus, within the framework of the tasks set, the genesis of the concept of "socio-cultural space" was analyzed and it was shown that socio-cultural and activity approaches have the heuristic potential for studying the transformation processes of the socio-cultural space, which allow taking into account the specific features and dynamics of the influence of various factors on the subjects of this space. It is noted that the adequacy of the construction of predictive models regarding the potential for the development and preservation of the socio-cultural space will depend both on the detail of the analysis of all components (the internal situation, the content of internal and external transformation processes), as well as on the assessment of the coherence of processes, taking into account their convergence and divergence. It is very important to study and take into account the trends of internal transformations taking place in neighbouring (other) socio-cultural spaces, since they, as a consequence of their internal development, as well as acceptance or rejection of external influence, determine the transformation of their political strategies and, as a consequence, the influence exerted on their neighbours. And not only them, given the virtuality of the modern socio-cultural space.
Key words: sociocultural space, a transformation of society, sociocultural approach, interactionist approach, communication theories, coherence of processes.

TRANSFORMATION OF CIVIL PROTEST IN MODERN RUSSIA: THE CHOICE OF FORMS OF ONLINE AND OFFLINE ACTIVITY
The article is devoted to the search for prospects of mutual transformation of online and offline forms of civil protest in modern Russia. The study is based on a critical analysis of domestic and foreign literature on the problems of digitalization and virtualization of politics, including protest practices. In addition, the authors used a qualitative content analysis, which made it possible to confirm the thesis of the dominance of “couch activism” as the main form of online activity of participants of the protest community in the network. We also used the case study method, which made it possible to analyze the practices of online rallies in the virtual space and draw a conclusion about an attempt to copy the main elements of “street activism”.
The article demonstrates that the development of the Internet and the crisis of traditional socio-political institutions lead to the emergence of new forms of interaction between the state and civil society on the issues of solving socially significant problems. The coronavirus pandemic has led to a forced acceleration of digitalization processes. However, the increase in activity on social networks and the emergence of specific forms of online activity (online rallies) do not lead to the replacement of offline protest by its online counterpart. Online protests continue to be perceived as less significant by both activists and the state due to fall of virtual forms of participation into the "blind spot".
Protests unnoticed by "casual passers-by" do not have the opportunity for rapid growth, and therefore do not lead to the public outcry required to solve this problem.
Key words: political mobilization, civil protest, social networks, political communication, communicative interaction.

FEATURES OF THE IMPLEMENTATION OF THE RUSSIAN STATE ANTI-CORRUPTION POLICY IN THE CONDITIONS OF THE INFORMATION SOCIETY AND THE ELECTRONIC STATE
This article is devoted to the study of corruption as a systemic phenomenon. The article offers the author's vision of the properties of corruption as a modern phenomenon, taking into account the development of information and communication technologies. Special attention is paid to the study of unintentional violations of anti-corruption legislation by state civil servants. The reasons for this phenomenon are explained, they lie both in the imperfection of the current Russian legislation and in the insufficient level of information and financial competence of state civil servants. Based on the analysis of Russian anti-corruption legislation, the authors formulated criteria that made it possible to determine the stages of development of information on income, expenses, property and property obligations of public civil servants as the most important tool of anti-corruption policy. Authors have developed proposals aimed at improving the effectiveness of the fight against unintentional corruption of public civil servants.
Key words: corruption, anti-corruption legislation, state civil servants, unintentional corruption, fight against corruption.

FACTORS OF THE INFLUENCE OF POLITICAL TRADITIONS ON THE TECHNOLOGY OF DESIGNING THE MEDIA IMAGE OF A REGIONAL LEADER
This article examines the construction of a political image within the framework of interrelated political traditions and models of mass communication. Understanding the effectiveness of political technology is viewed in accordance with the modern socio-philosophical interpretation of media as a "way of giving the world". The authors turn to the Russian context: the effectiveness of the use of political technologies in constructing the media image of a regional leader is investigated within the rigid framework of the authoritarian regime of the Soviet era and at the present stage with the actualization of soft power technologies. Modern strategies involve the use of explicit and covert tactics aimed at establishing control over the "information wave" formed around the media image. As a summary, the authors turn to the trends in the development of institutions of society and mass communications, the questions of the dynamics of the correlation of the media image are raised, taking into account the filling of the ideal model of a political leader and social storytelling.
Key words: media image, political image, political traditions, regional leader, information wave, soft power, social storytelling, Soviet press.

INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY IN THE POLITICAL PROCESS: POLITICAL SCIENCE ANALYSIS
The relevance of the subject matter is currently determined by the fact that the electronic space is, for the most part, a repetition of real politics, which indicates that Internet technologies are deeply rooted in the political life of society. The purpose of this study is to clarify the features of information technologies and their place in the modern political process, as exemplified by Kazakhstan. The Internet has been proven to form a vital part of any society, especially a democratic one, where it serves as social, economic, and political institution. This study provides a rationale for the importance of information technology in the political life of society. Particular attention is paid to increasing the influence of information technology in making important political decisions. This study also provides examples of the use of information technology in modern political processes. A detailed analysis of theoretical concepts, their interpretation in relation to Kazakhstan, a detailed study of media policy models opens up opportunities and prospects for new scientific research on the transformation and modernisation of information technologies in the political process.

THE PRACTICE OF ORGANIZING ELECTRONIC REFERENDUMS IN RUSSIA: FEATURES OF APPROBATION
The article gives a detailed description of the practice of using electronic referendums in modern Russia. The purpose of the study is to analyze the experience of conducting electronic referendums in Russia, the dynamics of the development of the model of this institution of direct democracy in our country. In the course of the research, such methods of scientific cognition as comparative studies and structural and functional analysis were used, which allowed not only to characterize the model of electronic referendums used in Russia, but also to compare it with foreign analogues. With the help of electronic referendums at the regional level in Moscow, the Moscow region, Lipetsk and Ulyanovsk, issues of improvement of regions are being resolved, apolitical citizens are being attracted to participate in the management of affairs of general social significance. The authors of the article came to the conclusion that the experience of electronic referendums held at the regional level in Russia indicates the desire of representatives of the public authorities to conduct a constructive dialogue between the population and the authorities, aimed at increasing electoral activity, attracting citizens to participate in the discussion of power-management decisions. The Russian model of electronic referendums, unlike the European one (Spain, Switzerland, France), tends more towards the Asian model (South Korea, India), which operates on the basis of government websites and mobile applications to them. Electronic referendums in Russia are currently tested only at the municipal and regional levels and are aimed at solving problems of communication between regional and municipal authorities with citizens.

FORMATION OF THE SOVIET POLICY IN THE FIELD OF PHYSICAL CULTURE, SPORTS AND SPORTS EDUCATION: IDEOLOGICAL GROUNDS
It is shown that in state policy, physical culture and sport are closely connected with the production and translation of political values and ideological constructs. In ancient times, sport was a tool for the formation of narrower (associated with the policy) and broader (all-Hellenistic) socio-cultural and political identities. Gymnastic movements in Germany, France, the Czech Republic, Sweden and Russia have become both a means of strengthening national identity and a method of military training. In the Soviet Union, physical education and sports were a tool for training the military and industrial human reserve, and success in the international arena was designed to prove the superiority of the socialist system over the capitalist one.

NATIONAL POLICY IN THE SOCIOCULTURAL SPACE OF THE REGION (ON THE EXAMPLE OF THE REPUBLIC OF ALTAI)
The article reveals the specific characteristics of the socio-cultural space of the region and the landmarks of the regional national policy, formed taking into account this specificity. On the example of the Republic of Altai, the legal framework of the region in the field of national policy, the structures of the authorities responsible for the implementation of the national policy in the region, the specific vectors of their activity were studied: support of representatives of the indigenous peoples of the North, preservation of the Altai language, activities to harmonize interethnic relations and counter extremism in the republic, patriotic education of youth. It was determined that these vectors were formed in the conditions of the specific socio-cultural space of the region, characterized by its polyethnicity, republican status, the presence of indigenous small peoples in the ethnic structure of the region, internal migration, which confirms the thesis about the need to take into account regional specifics when forming national policy in it.
Key words: national policy, Republic of Altai, indigenous peoples, language policy, region, socio-cultural space.

LEGITIMIZATION OF POWER STRUCTURES AND ITS FEATURES WITHIN THE FRAMEWORK OF THE CONCEPT OF “RUSSIAN LOCAL CIVILIZATION”
The issues of legitimacy and delegitimization processes become particularly relevant in the period preceding the transit of power. Since the Russian local civilization has distinctive features, including socio-cultural ones, the processes of legitimization bear the imprint of these properties. For example, the terms "autocratic" and "paternalistic" often applied to the Russian government have a somewhat more complex nature from the point of view of socio-cultural and political analysis than is commonly believed. The situation that is unfolding in time now has sources both in the country's immediate past and in modern precedents. At this stage, it is also important to trace the relationship between the development of a particular political practice and the processes of formation of power structures, as well as those mechanisms that allow maintaining the legitimacy of basic management structures.
Key words: «civilization», local civilization, social process, power, features of the political process, Western-oriented approach.

RUSSIAN FEDERALISM AT THE CROSSROAD OF THE CONSTITUTIONAL REFORM
Amendments to the Constitution of the Russian Federation initiated in early 2020 by the President of Russia V. V. Putin caused a lively discussion in the scientific literature and journalist publications. In the proposed amendments to the Constitution of the Russian Federation critics noted the danger of strengthening presidential power to the detriment of other branches of government; redistribution of powers of the subjects of the Russian Federation in favor of the federal center; restriction of autonomy and independence of municipal authorities; restriction of citizens' rights and a number of other points. The article critically analyzes the arguments of supporters and opponents of the 2020 constitutional reform in order to identify the content of the main changes in the system of Russian federalism in the aspect of the implementation in this system of one of the most important principles of modern federal theory – the principle of subsidiarity. As the author of the article shows, the system of unified public authority as one of the main innovations of the constitutional reform can serve as a basis for the implementation of the principle of subsidiarity.
Key words: subsidiarity, separation of powers, federalism, differentiation of subjects of competence and powers, constitutional reform.

POLITICAL CENSORSHIP AND ONLINE MEDIA IN MODERN TAJIKISTAN
The article examines the development of online media and the political censorship and control regime formed in relation to them in modern Tajikistan. The mechanisms of the political regime of censorship and control over the information space are analyzed, the methods of their control over online media are revealed. The study of the situation in the information field of Tajikistan allows the author to conclude that the emergence of online media in the country significantly contributed to the formation of a new model of communication between the government and society, but at the same time, the mechanisms for implementing the political regime of censorship and control over media resources have also changed. The effects of this control are reflected in self-censorship and political correctness among users of both traditional media present on the Internet and media directly coming out in a network environment. By creating a format of media behavior, the political regime of censorship and control acts as a guarantee of information security.
Key words: political journalism, Internet, network media, Tajikistan, censorship, political control.

CORRUPTION RISKS AS A CATEGORY OF ANTI-CORRUPTION POLICY
One of the most pressing and socially significant problems today continues to be the fight against corruption. Undoubtedly, the most effective measure of combating corruption offenses is their prevention, which identifies and prevents such violations. At the same time, it is important to note that while carrying out preventive measures it is necessary to consider what circumstances contribute to the emergence and spread of corruption violations, which areas are the most corrupt, not otherwise prone to corruption risks. Anti-corruption policy is not only a mechanism to eliminate the causes of corruption violations, but also to prevent them. And since the onset and spread of corruption offenses is promoted by the risk of corruption, their timely detection is necessary for the formation of an effective anti-corruption policy. In this connection, in this article, the author analyzes the features of the theoretical, methodological, and normative approach to the definition of corruption risks, and considers their place and role in the system of anti-corruption legislation.
Key words: corruption risks, anti-corruption policy, corruption, corruption offenses, anti-corruption.

HISTORICAL MEMORY OF RUSSIAN YOUTH AS THE BASIS FOR THE FORMATION OF A STATE-ORIENTED PERSONALITY
The formation of a state-oriented personality is an important task of upbringing and education of the young generation in all societies and at all times. Modern states have no other alternative as the formation of a state-oriented personality, because otherwise it is possible to get a type of opposition personality, which can gradually become radicalized, and in which extremist sentiments will develop. The basis for the formation of a state-oriented personality is the historical memory of society and social groups. Analyzing the historical memory of modern Russian youth, it is possible to identify models that contribute to the formation of a state-oriented personality, and models that impede this process. The language models of the historical memory of young people should be corrected by the state educational policy, creating a positive semantics of the state historical policy, which should be based on objective historical assessments that ensure the historical sovereignty of our country.
Key words: historical memory, historical politics, historical sovereignty, models of historical memory, political evil, political good, state-oriented personality, radicalization opposition.

WESTERNIZING JAPAN AS AN IMPROVISER CULTURAL CROSSING-OVER
The relevance of this topic is determined by the tendency to popularize Japanese culture not only among specialist scientists, but also among the general public. Interest in the East, in particular in Japan, is due not only to the fact that the countries of the Asia-Pacific region play an increasingly important role in the economic, political and cultural life of mankind, but also to the fact that the traditions of the East are increasingly important in the way of life of other countries. The culture of this country is carried away, in one way or another, practically all over the world. The influence of the West on the development of Japan is manifested in the modernization of the endogenous-exogenous type, As a result of globalization, the process of integration of cultures is manifested in full. Therefore, it is quite interesting to study these processes in a cross-temporal plan. The purpose of this article is to study the impact of Westernization on the cultural identity of Japan. The authors believe that this process, in the end, from a cultural point of view, is not an aggressive introduction of Western ideas, but a smooth fusion of traditions and customs of the European and Asian components. Westernization is more of a process of so-called cultural crossing- the exchange of cultural traditions characteristic of many countries.
Key words: Japan, modernization, westernization, impruver, cultural crossingover.

It is known that the political system of society, which today undergoes considerable changes and is located at the modernization stage of its development. This, one way or another, highlights it in the ranks of one of the most interesting objects for research on the part of political scientists, sociologists and historians. The task of determining the sources and factors of all global changes in political systems, as well as the possible definition of the effects of such changes, especially acutely stood at the beginning of the last century, when a number of Latin America countries, including Argentina, began gradual care from authoritarian rule to democracy. It is a particular interest to the experience of a very difficult development of the political system of Argentina in the 30-40 years of the twentieth century.

U.S. FOREIGN POLICY IN RELATION TO THE ARAB-ISRAELI CONFLICT AT THE PRESENT STAGE
U.S. policy in the Middle East has had a serious impact on the political and economic state of the region for decades. The Middle East, in turn, has been and remains an important area for every American administration. The actions of the last US presidents have radically changed the traditional American approach to politics in the Middle East and, in particular, to the Palestinian-Israeli issue. Moreover, these actions have become an impetus for the beginning of revolutionary changes in the complex mosaic of Middle Eastern contradictions. The situation in the Middle East is changing, this is reflected in the normalization of relations between Israel and such Arab countries as the UAE, Bahrain and Sudan. The purpose of the study is to examine the process of formation of the US Middle East policy and approaches to the Middle East policy of various American leaders in order to determine the "classical" American approach. To achieve this goal, it is necessary to solve the following tasks: to consider the history of American-Israeli cooperation and US policy in the region to determine the "traditional" features of the American Middle East approach and the approach to solving the Palestinian problem; to study some of the results of the policy of American presidents in the Middle East and determine how it fits into the "classic" American policy. In the course of the research, the historical method and the method of comparative analysis were used. The changes that have taken place in the Middle East over the past 4 years are revolutionary. The transfer of the American embassy to Jerusalem, America's recognition of the Dutch Heights as part of Israel, the conclusion of peace agreements between Israel and some Arab countries against the background of record-breaking Israeli construction on occupied Palestinian lands – yesterday all this seemed impossible, and today it is an integral part of reality in the Middle East. The most important trend remains the process of normalization of relations between Israel and Arab countries.

FOREIGN EXPERIENCE OF MIGRANT INTEGRATION: PRACTICE OF MODERN GERMANY
The article examines the prerequisites for the formation of popular migration to Germany, as well as the transformation of migration flows from external labor migration to refugee migration. The attraction of external migrants contributed to the economic growth of Germany but exposed the problem of interaction between Muslim migrants and the local society. Despite the official position of the political leadership of Germany based on the positions of multiculturalism, the programs implemented in this regard, both at the federal and regional levels, do not always achieve the set goals of integrating migrants into German society. This fact determines the growth of critical perception of migrants in modern Germany, which indicates the need to develop new, more effective approaches to the implementation of integration policy models.

MODERN POLITICAL LEADERSHIP IN EUROPE IN THE CONTEXT OF RELIGIOUS RENAISSANCE
Modern politics in Europe is carried out in the context of modern secular-dogmatic practice. Religious intentions are becoming more and more popular in the European political space. The religious renaissance covers various aspects of social life. The religious revival is due to political leaders in general and heads of State in particular, who are returning to the traditional religions of their communities. Within the framework of political science and related disciplines, there are approaches that explain the causes and essence of the modern phenomenon of political leadership. Political leaders influence the development of the country. Thus, Europe is becoming the scientific and religious center of the world precisely thanks to the activities of politicians. In the study of the personality of a leader in political psychology, two areas of research have historically developed: an ideographic and a nomothetic approach, based on which methodologies for analyzing the activities of politicians and their personal qualities have been formed. The relevance of the research lies in the fact that the authors ' study of the European path of development and the personalities of political figures, thanks to which it was formed as the center of world politics, is the key to studying the features of modern European political leadership. In this study, the authors used methodological tools that integrate the research capabilities of the methods of political science, psychology, sociology, conflictology and several other sciences, united by the principles of interdisciplinary, comparative historical study of the research problem itself.
Key words: political leadership, religious renaissance, Europe, EU, political psychology.

The growing importance of the subnational level of international relations is recognized in modern political science. However, the role of this level in the relations of countries with strong state control remains unclear.

THE USA AND RUSSIA ARE ON THE BRINK OF A NEW COLD WAR
No matter how many times it has been said that relations between Russia and Western countries can no longer deteriorate, the news agenda proves us otherwise. For example, the German defence minister threatened Russia with the use of nuclear weapons if it does not comply with NATO directives. Although Germany itself does not possess nuclear weapons, it was implied that an attack could be launched by an American arsenal from European territory. And such rhetoric is becoming more and more frequent. The topic of the Cold War between Russia and the United States as the two major powers is discussed in various countries with an enviable frequency. US President Joe Biden has stated that he is not seeking a new Cold War. However, most Europeans believe it is already underway between the US and its main rivals, China and Russia. Some Europeans also see their country as a direct participant in the conflict. In this article we will analyse the various viewpoints on this issue. We will also draw some conclusions.
Key words: Russia, US, Cold War, contradictions, confrontation.

THEORETICAL AND METHODOLOGICAL POTENTIAL OF APPLICATION OF ACTIVE-NETWORK THEORY FOR ANALYSIS OF MODERN POLITICAL INSTITUTIONS, PROCESSES AND TECHNOLOGIES
The article problematizes the main provisions and concepts of active network theory in connection with the relevance of their application to the analysis of modern political institutions, processes and technologies. The author reveals the specifics of modern phenomena of political power, the elite, civil society, political parties in the context of the network nature of modern political reality and substantiates the theoretical and methodological potential of interpreting them in terms of the theory of network society (M. Castels), actor-network theory (B. Latour, M. Kallon, J. Law). At the same time, the article presents criticism of these concepts, justifies the need to search for the complementarity of absolutist and relational socio-political ontologies, structural-functional and active-network theoretical and methodological approaches in political science.
Key words: political power, political elite, political actor, actor-network theory, network society, relational political ontology, hierarchy and polyarchy of power.

POLITICIZED ETHNICITY: A THEORETICAL DECLARATION IN THE CONCEPTUAL TREATMENT OF THE PHENOMENON
It is shown that the modern politicized social climate makes us talk about the penetration of political discourse into the issues of personal self-identification, which is of critical importance for the study of problems related to ethnicity. An actual turn in the study of the politicization of ethnicity associated with this trend has been fixed, when the emphasis shifts from considering institutional processes in systemic politics to identifying mechanisms that trigger activity in non-systemic politics through the prism of the consciousness of individual people. The foundations of the theory of critical consciousness, developed on the basis of P. Freire's concept of conscientization, which is applied to the study of the politicization of ethnicity within the framework of the new research optics, are described. Three stages in the formation of critical consciousness are considered: critical reflection, critical action and assessment of political effectiveness. The directions of research are given that could be relevant both for the development of the topic of politicization of ethnicity and for solving problems associated with the need to preserve conflict-free interethnic relations and solidarity between representatives of different ethnic groups in the socio-cultural space of the country.
Key words: politicization of ethnicity, theoretical and methodological foundations of social research, theory of critical consciousness, the concept of conscientization, P. Freire.

The starting point in the study was the conflict between the political systems of the PRC and Hong Kong, the latter of which adopted the values of the democratic West and integrated them into its political, social and cultural spheres during the British colonial rule. At the heart of the conflict are the attempts of the Chinese government to "suppress" the freedom of "Chinese Europeans". The differences in political structures, worldviews, cultures and customs are only consequences, behind which lies the real reason for the contradictions. In this article, the authors consider the impact of the political and social differences in the educational systems of Hong Kong and Mainland China.
Key words: PRC, Hong Kong, fractal modeling of education, Umbrella Revolution, Tiananmen Square, national education.

TIKTOK: NEW OPPORTUNITIES FOR COMMUNICATION AND SELF-PRESENTATION OF MODERN TEENAGERS
In this article, the authors address the problem of using the TikTok app by modern teenagers. The ambiguity of the perception of this application by both adults and adolescents themselves makes the issue of its impact on young people controversial. The purpose of the article was to analyze the influence of TikTok and TikTokers on the communication and self-presentation of modern teenagers. Methods for collecting empirical data are semi-structured interviews with adolescents and expert interviews. In total, 23 adolescents aged 13-17 took part in the survey, as well as five experts – specialists in the media industry and education. We also studied the materials of the discussion "What is TikTok and what is it eaten with?" and A. Turlakov's research “Everything will be TikTok”. The analysis of the collected data was carried out in the context of communication practices and self-presentation of adult tiktokers and teenage tiktokers, as well as adolescent consumers of this content.
For teenagers – authors and users – TikTok provides an opportunity to express themselves, develop communication skills, and relax and have fun. The app attracts teenagers with the format of short videos, feed of recommendations, simplicity of shooting. Self-presentations of popular TikTokers are distinguished by their sincerity and naturalness, emotionality and a sense of humor. Self-presentations of teenage Tiktokers reproduce the self-presentations of adult bloggers. The communication practices of TikTokers and users can be viewed as a model of parasocial relations.
Key words: TikTok, teens, tiktokers, self-presentation, communication, parasocial relationship model.

THE IMPACT OF MIGRATION PROCESSES ON THE DEMOGRAPHIC DEVELOPMENT OF THE RUSSIAN FEDERATION
The study analyzes the relationship between the influence of migration processes characteristic of modern Russia and the existing demographic challenges. The authors emphasize that the growing economic and production needs of modern developed countries cannot be realized at the expense of the national labor market and require the involvement of external resources from demographically active countries. However, the mass attraction of foreign cultural migrants actualizes not only the problems of their adaptation and integration into the host society, but also has an impact on various aspects of national security and domestic political stability. The development of mechanisms for more effective adaptation and integration of external migrants, the allocation of these migration processes in a separate direction of the state migration policy will contribute to the solution of certain demographic problems facing modern Russia.
Key words: migration, demography, migration policy, labor market, human capital, adaptation and integration of migrants.

PROSPECTS FOR THE USE OF VIDEO GAMES AND THE INDUSTRY OF THEIR PRODUCTION AS AN INSTRUMENT OF MEMORY POLICY FROM THE POINT OF VIEW OF SPECIALIZED GOVERNMENT BODIES AND NGOS
This study is devoted to the issue of the prospects for the use of video games and the industry of their production as an instrument of memory politics from the point of view of specialized government bodies and NGOs. The aim of the work is to develop an algorithm for the implementation by the state and related actors of memorial policy through video games. The author comes to the conclusion that the state should now focus on solving the problems of updating the creation of video games with a historical plot for commercial structures and developing mechanisms for correcting the choice of the developers of memorial regimes. This implies the need to promote the formation of the institution of memorial examination of video games. The latter should be carried out on a voluntary basis even before the start of the active phase of game development. Its successful completion must be made a condition of access to the system of benefits on the part of the state and NGOs. Adherence to the original design strategy of the developers who have received peer review should be strictly regulated and monitored on a regular basis.

INFLUENCE OF INSTITUTIONAL FACTORS ON THE CLASSIFICATION OF REGIONAL CONFLICTS
This article analyzes the methodological foundations of the typologization of regional conflicts. The author singled out the main criteria for identifying the features of ethno political conflicts. The purpose of the study is to establish key classifications that affect the scientific assessment of contemporary regional conflicts. For this, the author used the historical method (the development of regional conflicts), the institutional approach (identifying trends inherent in various conflicts) and the comparative method (comparing regional conflicts in different parts of the world). The author came to the conclusion that the classification of regional conflicts is based on the allocation of certain factors that contribute to their development in a particular case. The influence of institutional and non-institutional factors on the development of conflicts shows a tendency when frequently changing rules for their resolution are adjusted to specific interests.

THE RUSSIAN REGIONAL POLITICAL ELITE AND ITS POTENTIAL FOR SELF-RENEWAL
Russia is facing a difficult situation caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. There is a tendency to increase the centralization of power and reduce the sovereignty of regional entities. The federal center's lobbying of its candidates for posts in state bodies of regional power blocks the self-renewal of political elites, turning the federation into an autocracy. There is a projection of the Soviet nomenclature on the political framework of Russia's domestic policy. According to the author, this causes an increase in protest activity and the need of the population of the regions of Russia to increase sovereignty. The article pays special attention to the information policy and the inadmissibility of the use of so-called “enforced patriotism.” Modern Russian society has outlived Soviet values and requires other approaches to the formation of a unified interregional Russian passionarity. Despite this, the author believes that the course of the incumbent president of Russia will democratize the current domestic policy of the country and mobilize regional society to self-determination of the political situation.
Key words: political elite, regional policy, federal center, centralization of power, governors.

CAN SOLIDARITY GLOBALIZE? UTOPIA IS POSSIBLE
The article deals with a question of critical consequence for the human survival spelled out as: can solidarity globalize? Between the two poles of optimists and pessimists, there is one that deserves a particular attention: the case for possible-ism. In the view of this standpoint, which has been inspired by the work of Richard Falk [4], there is a possibility to globalize human solidarity, which does not necessarily imply probability it would happen. The author discusses (im)possibility of realization of the global solidarity idea, which has been particularly stressed in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic, climate change, etc. The main argument is that the current state of affairs, which looks rather gloomy in terms of harmonious and cooperative international system, is not predetermined. It is a construct rather than a result of any ‘natural law’. Furthermore, the history offers episodes that prove that human solidarity is not only possible, but also workable option for a societal, regional and international realm. The unyielding scepticism does not arise from any critical acumen. Contemporary expressions of human particularism have been cherished intentionally, in order to preserve the status quo where there is socialism for the rich and capitalism for the poor.
Key words: global solidarity, international order, utopia.

And the second period that continued from the end of Tokyo Olympic in 2021 and after when the pandemic process boosted rapidly and reached 20 000 of infected persons per day according to the state statistic Data.

The last causes were depicted by the individual peculates of the Japanese nation, its national traditions, genetic immunology towards the virus of “COVID-19”. Japanese authorities that time refused follow the recommendations of World Health Organization and Japan did not made the tests of urban population – at the end of 2020 only 0,27% of all the population have made the tests of PCR.
In spite of achievements of the Japanese Government in the fighting with coronavirus during the first period begging with September of 2021 there was the burst of infected persons in the mid of August 2021 when during one day were registered more then 20 000 patients.

EROTIC GRAPHICS OF ABUNA-E AND SHUNGA OF THE EDO ERA AS A SOURCE OF FORMATION OF JAPAN’S MASS CULTURE
In this article the authors paid their attention to the topic, which is one of the actual problems in case of the research of Japanese cultural identity – the influence of abuna-e and shunga engraving on common Japanese culture. Ignorance can simplify our view of world cultural heritage. During the centuries political culture of Japan for the European scientists was a closed system. When the borders of great eastern countries – Japan, China and Korea were opened, the European residents were amazed by the variety and wealth of their culture. Firstly, it was the intimate part of the Japanese culture. The brightest examples were abuna-e and shunga engraving. For the Europeans it was incomprehensible perception of sex, mostly coming from Shintoism, which does not bear sexual prohibitions. Moreover, sex was considered as something normal. During the research of the problem the authors try to answer the question about the origins of influence on the common Japanese culture of this genre of graphic art of the Edo Era like abuna-e and shunga engraving.
Key words: Japan, the Edo Era, the genre of the erotic art abuna-e and shunga, cultural identity of Japan, «spring pictures».

ORIGINS AND FEATURES OF NATIONALISM IN MODERN HUNGARY
The article analyzes the historical premises for the formation of the state idea of modern Hungary, the influence of the process of the Hungarian national formation on the content and features of the manifestation of nationalism, its contradictory nature.
Purpose of the work: to reveal the influence of the historical factor on the change in the content and the formation of the characteristics of modern Hungarian nationalism.
At the beginning of the twentieth century, at the state level, it manifests itself as aggressive nationalism, revanchist, anti-Slavic and anti-Romanian.
Over the past decades, Hungarian nationalism has changed and lost its traditional character. An analysis of modern party programs and speeches by statesmen and party leaders allows us to state the disappearance of traditional Slavophobia and anti-Germanism.
Hungarian nationalists are rated not only as Eurosceptics, antiglobalists, ultra-conservatives, anti-Semites and gypsies, which has become customary, but also as a particular danger, from the point of view of European liberals, in the growing pan-Turkist and Turanist sentiments, which are manifested not only in the ideology of the far-right «Jobbik» party, but in the ruling «FIDESZ» as well.
Тhe implementation of nationalism at the level of state policy of the right-wingers, who have been in power since 2010, is regarded as a fundamental feature of modern Hungarian nationalism. Today Hungarian nationalism is non-ethnic and patriotic. Interesting prospects for studying the transformation of the content of nationalism in Hungary are provided in connection with the development of the new Hungarian ideology «Hungarism», which claims to be a state one, designed to support claims to leadership in a new geopolitical Eurasian project.
Key words: nationalism in Hungary, slavophobia, Turanism, Hungarianism, Gypsy phobia, ethnic divisive nationalism, sovereign-state nationalism.

MARINE LE PEN AND HER GLASS CEILING
Marine Le Pen is President of the National Rally. It’s the third time when she’s announcing her candidacy for the President of the French Republic. Each time her chances of winning increase and the work of her party image normalization does not stop. A year before the 2022 French presidential election, Marin Le Pen’s approval rating was identical to the rating of current President Emmanuel Macron. The Ipsos poll put Le Pen at 44 percent against 56 percent for Macron in the second round, compared with 34 to 66 in 2017. Meanwhile, Macron and Le Pen fail to make ground in 2021 French regional elections. Record low turnout of their voters showed electoral fatigue from this couple inevitably competing in the final part of the French presidential election. As usual, Le Pen faced her traditional obstacle: elite solidarity didn’t permit her far-right party to entrench in any French region. In addition, Le Pen goes too much into expanding of the second round electoral base, which can cause the loss of National Rally’s key voters, the increasing of inner-party disagreement and even the defeat in the first round of the 2022 French presidential election.
Key words: National Rally, National Front, Marine Le Pen, Nationalism, Populism, far-right politics, 2022 French presidential election.

CHANGES IN RACE AND ETHNICITY AS CONCEPTS IN THE U.S. CENSUS
For centuries the United States has been conducting censuses, but never in history have so many Americans (13 million people, 4% of the country's population) identified themselves with two or more racial and ethnic categories as in 2020 census. The increase in multiculturalism and the mixing of races has forced the federal government to seek new approaches to the national question.

LEGAL BASIS OF ITALIAN MIGRATION POLICY
The migration problem in Italy is not a new phenomenon for Italian foreign and domestic politics. The Apennine peninsula has always been a place of intercultural communication, starting with the formation of Rome as an important geopolitical actor in antiquity. However, returning to modernity, it is the events of the last seven years, beginning in 2014, that have caused not just an aggravation of the migration issue for Italy, but a severe crisis with consequences that have already changed the model of Italian society.
The phenomenon of migration in Italy has become structural and long-term, requiring the shared responsibility not only of all EU member states, but also of the source countries of the migration flows. The solution to this problem lies only in the legal plane, since it is the observance of norms and laws that can prevent the escalation of conflict, reduce the degree of tension among society and between countries, and develop an algorithm of action aimed at minimizing the damage caused by migration and, if possible, preventive measures to stabilize the socio-economic and political situation in the source countries of migration.

DEVELOPMENT OF CIVIL SOCIETY IN THE KYRGYZ REPUBLIC
The newly independent states faced the need to develop their own conceptual foundations for building a civil society that adequately meets the needs of their development in the changed conditions. Taking into account the heterogeneity of the composition and the diversity of the political and socio-economic aspirations of the new states, the nature and dynamics of the processes of building civil society developed in them in different ways. In a number of countries, the events in the post-Soviet period were characterized by acute drama, up to the outbreaks of the so-called color revolutions, which radically changed the political structure of society and the guidelines of socio-economic development in them.
The article analyzes the development of civil society in the Kyrgyz Republic. Due to the fact that civil society in Kyrgyzstan is considered the most developed of all the states located in Central Asia, the study of this topic arouses a wide interest on the part of learned public figures. In our work we tried to reveal the role of civil society in the political processes taking place in the territory of the Kyrgyz Republic.

TURKEY AND EGYPT: PROBLEMS OF RELATIONS AND THE BEGINNING OF "RESET" (2002-2021)
Relations between Turkey and Egypt have gone through a number of stages since the Justice and Development Party (AKP) came to power in Turkey. With the removal of M. Morsi from power in Egypt, the AKP lost an important partner and ally in the Middle East, which led to an aggravation of relations between Turkey and Egypt. A new round of deterioration in relations is observed due to the contradictions between the two countries on solving problems in the Eastern Mediterranean and Libya. At the same time, in recent years, despite the deepening crisis in relations between the two countries, there has been an intensification of trade and economic cooperation. Since 2021, Turkey has been striving to renew ties with Egypt, and the first steps have already been taken.
Key words: Turkey, Egypt, Turkish-Egyptian relations, Eastern Mediterranean, Middle East.

FACTORS OF ASEAN AND EU INSTITUTIONAL FAILURE: A COMPARATIVE ANALYSIS OF MECHANISMS IN THE COVID-19 RESPONSES
This article addresses the issue of mechanisms in the fight against the COVID-19 pandemic in the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) and the European Union (EU). The purpose of this article is to explore efficiency of the mechanisms used in depth and to conduct a comparative analysis of the mechanisms used in the COVID-19 response within the ASEAN and EU. Analysis of similarities and differences based on the effectiveness of mechanisms, significant resources, determination of the region's political elites and expectations of member countries, duration on depth of integration of their anti-crisis mechanisms allow us to determine their factors of institutional failure. The article shows that their mechanisms in responding to COVID-19 proved to be ineffective in the beginning, as expected in the region. However, with the success of European institutional integration, as a result, the EU was able to use its more horizontal mechanisms based on solidarity to combat the pandemic better than ASEAN.
Key words: COVID-19, ASEAN, EU, Regional Mechanisms.

GLOCALIZATION OF MODERN INTERNATIONAL RELATIONS: CHARACTERISTICS AND FEATURES
The article is devoted to the current problems of glocalization of modern international relations. The study of the global, regional, and local levels of world processes allows us to comprehend the development of international interaction. The purpose of the article is to show that international relations are based on a triad, at the top of which is globalization, at the base – regionalization and localization, and the relations themselves can be represented as a four-level system, which includes supranational, interstate, subnational (regional) and local levels. All participants in this multifaceted and multi-level process are endowed with certain competencies and powers in the international field, and this fact makes it possible for this international orchestra to sound.
Key words: international relations, international links, international cooperation, globalization, regionalization, localization, glocalization.

METHODOLOGY OF STUDYING VIDEO GAMES AS A TOOL OF SYMBOLIC POLICY
Within the framework of the presented study, a universal methodology was developed for assessing the effectiveness of a video game as a symbolic policy tool based on a system of quantitative criteria. The integral indicator of the game's effectiveness is formed by summing four indicators – the quality of the key elements of the game's narrative, its availability, the economic efficiency of the product from the developer's point of view, and its popularity among the user community. Each of the selected indicators is measured using a variety of quantitative criteria. In an optional order, when interpreting the results of the assessment of the game, factors such as design, the presence of a consultant, the content of images that are not included in the main part of the game, but demonstrate the original intention of the developers, the views, views of the game writer, participation in the development of the game by representatives of official authorities and related the state of business structures and public organizations, the presence of ideologically tinged "achievements" for the performance of special actions of a symbolic nature, the interpretation of the meanings of the game by the developers or authors of the original source of the plot. The prospects for the development of the methodology are primarily associated with the development of a classification system for video games based on a quantitative indicator of efficiency as a symbolic policy tool.
Key words: video games, computer games, assessment methodology, efficiency, symbolic politics.

"BREZHNEV'S STAGNATION" AS A SUPPOSE FOR THE CRISIS OF SOVIET STATEHOOD
The article analyzes the "Brezhnev" period in Soviet history, called "stagnation", in order to trace the political processes, the most important political and legal decisions of the leadership and the personal responsibility of the country's leader in the context of the growing crisis of Soviet statehood. The idea is developing that the first impetus for the collapse of the USSR was the "Khrushchev thaw" (primary de-Stalinization) initiated by N.S. Khrushchev.
It is noted that in the Brezhnev period, divided by its significance into early and late, none of the tasks dictated by time was fully solved. In the first decade, some positive trends were revealed that slowed down the crisis of statehood, but in the late period of the government's detachment from solving urgent problems, a serious state crisis increased. It is emphasized that the lost time ("stagnation") also became a prerequisite for the collapse of the USSR.
Key words: Brezhnev, "stagnation", "crisis of statehood", the USSR, social conservatism, Stalinism.

The article is devoted to the problem of ethnization of partogenesis and party functioning in theoretical and practical terms in the context of the 2021 elections in Russia. Risks of the possible formation of political parties based on ethnicity are identified, as well as trends in the inclusion of ethnopolitical segments in the programs of modern Russian political parties. Ethnopolitical segments of political programs – the main competitors in the 2021 elections – are compared. The broad context of the electoral campaign is considered from the point of view of its resources for strengthening the civil unity of Russian society and at the same time for meeting the ethnocultural interests of the citizens of the Russian Federation. Ethnopolitical segmentation is emphasized in certain regions of the Russian Federation, in particular, in the subjects of the North Caucasian Federal District.

SPECIFITIES OF THE RUSSIAN MODEL OF GROUP INTERESTS REPRESENTATION
In modern Russia there are a lot of interest groups varying in their composition, interests, structure, financial and political possibilities. The study of these groups, using existing classifications in political theory, makes it possible to define their role and place in the social-political processes taking place in the country more precisely as well as to develop the guidelines for the improvement of legislation in this area. However, the application of existing classifications of interest groups does not always allow to fully evaluate them therefore requiring the introduction of additional criteria.
The study aims to analyse the unique features of the Russian model for the representation of group interests. For this purpose, examining groups of interests represented in the public and political space of modern Russia according to the classifications recognized by the political science, and installing an extra classification by the level of the object of lobbying.
The analysis of Russian interest groups and the regularity of participation at the global and regional levels of interest groups of associative and institutional types, which correspond to the corporate model of representation of group interests, have been carried out with the help of the systematic approach. In the meantime, associative and disorganized groups mostly articulate their interests at the local and regional levels and mostly correspond to the features of a pluralistic model.
To change this situation, the article suggests to improve the mechanisms for articulating group interests through systems of functional and electoral representation.
Key words: lobbyism, pressure groups, interest groups, corporatism, pluralism.

EVOLUTION OF RUSSIA'S SUBNATIONAL POLITICAL INSTITUTIONS
The modern system of subnational government institutions has existed for more than two decades and is constantly developing. The regional political system is evolving and these processes are associated with structural differences in the subjects of the Russian Federation: republics, regions, territories, autonomous districts and an autonomous region. Basically, the asymmetry is associated with the peculiarities of the socio-economic situation of the subjects of the Russian Federation and the constitutional and legal status of each subject of the Russian Federation, enshrined in the Constitution of the Russian Federation.
Key words: subjects of the federation, subnational political institutions, vertical of power, asymmetry, contractual practice, separation of powers, centralization.

THE PROBLEM OF MODERNIZATION AND DEVELOPMENT OF THE ELITE CLUSTER IN ORDER TO ENSURE THE CONSOLIDATION POLICY OF MODERN RUSSIA
The article proposes solutions to the problem of modernization and development of the elite cluster in order to ensure the effectiveness of the consolidation identification policy of modern Russia. Based on current social monitoring data, the author concludes that in modern Russia, the current consolidation of the elite within the elite cluster, as well as between the elite cluster and the civil society cluster, is still carried out mainly "from above" according to a unifying authoritarian scenario, and not a pluralistic democratic one. This is fraught with an increasing tendency to alienate the elite from civil society, intra-elite conflicts (not only through the federal center – regional elites, but also through the administrative-political elite, based on the information resources of traditional media – the new elite of social media electronic spaces), the stagnation of democratic processes in Russia, as well as the crisis of legitimizing the power of the political and administrative elite. The solution lies in the integration of the main political clusters and their internal content based on strategic values: public good, national security, social protection of the population, through democratization of opportunities and technologies for incorporating citizens into power, intensification of a culture of political participation throughout the social field, democratic development of educational institutions, culture, leadership institutions, independent expert opinion, interactive platforms for effective partnership communication of major political actors.
Key words: political power, political elite, civil society, political clusters, consolidation of political power, socio-political monitoring, political technologies, socio-political management, socio-political trends and contradictions.

RELATIONS OF RUSSIA WITH THE COUNTRIES OF AFRICAN CONTINENT
In the context of emerging new world order, Russia needs an intensive development of relations with African countries. Its theoretical basis can be a theoretical system consisting of colonial theories, theories of modernization, pan-Africanism and world order. Conceptually, the concept of sustainable development appears to be the most consistent with Russia's interests in Africa. Based on these theories and concepts, large international organizations and leading countries of the world are pursuing active policies towards Africa with their strengths and weaknesses. Russia has achieved certain successes in relations with African countries. At the same time, there are some problems in this domain. The prospects for the development of Russian-African relations depend on the effectiveness of their cooperation in accordance with the goals of sustainable development. Russia should develop cooperation in line with all seventeen SDGs, with particular emphasis on Sustainable Development Goal No. 16, Peace, Justice and Strong Institutions. The most important areas of Russian-African cooperation for this purpose may be peacekeeping, military-technical cooperation and the use of Russian private security companies in ensuring the security of African countries.
Key words: decolonization, postcoloniality, neocoloniality, modernization, pan-Africanism, the new world order, the concept of sustainable development, peacekeeping, military-technical cooperation, private security companies.

SCENARIOS FOR THE DEVELOPMENT OF THE U.S. STRATEGIC COURSE IN THE POLITICAL PROCESS OF THE INDO-PACIFIC REGION
The article deals with an urgent topic – the building of the US foreign policy course in the Indo-Pacific region aimed at comprehensive global domination. Such course is based on the increasing geopolitical presence of the United States in the region, including the military-political component. At the same time, the region-forming factor plays the key role in the formation of a new regional security architecture. The Pentagon's interest in the Indo-Pacific region is obvious. It is this region that is of paramount importance for the strategic plans of the military department. Due to the inextricable historical, cultural, and trade ties with the countries of the Indo-Pacific region, the United States declared itself a “Pacific nation,” giving it the determination and the right to build a new configuration of international relations.

IRAQI KURDISTAN’S ECONOMIC POLICY BEFORE AND AFTER THE 2017 REFERENDUM
As expected, the referendum in northern Iraq on September 25, 2017 confirmed that the vast majority of residents of Iraqi Kurdistan and its surrounding territories (over 90 percent of those who took part in the referendum with a rather high voter turnout) are in favor of the independence of the Kurdish region. Moreover, not only Kurds voted, but also representatives of other ethnic groups from among the local population (Arabs, Turcomans, Armenians, Assyrians, etc.). The referendum led to a deepening economic crisis in autonomy: after the complete cessation of salary payments to employees of the Baghdad region, having conducted a military operation, Erbil deprived the oil fields in the province of Kirkuk, which brought him half the income from all exports of "black gold". More than a hundred thousand refugees who fled their homes located in the disputed territories after the arrival of Iraqi military and Shiite militias from al-Hashd al-Shaabi added problems to the Kurdish authorities. Despite all that, there are considerable prospects for the economic revival of the region, which, of course, will take a long time and will depend on the position of the authorities and representatives of all nations of its population.

THE CORRELATION OF REGIONAL AND NATIONAL IDENTITIES IN GERMANY
The German identity today represents an ambivalent complex phenomenon, which appears on both a regional and national level. This complexity is conditioned by the historical development of the state, which for a long time had no cultural, linguistic and dimensional integrity und whose nature is formed for centuries under the influence of independent stem duchies. The processes of sociopolitical and cultural integration of the territories led to the formation of a national identity of the Germans. And this raises the question of the relationship between the two sources of self-identification.
This article examines such categories as regional and national identities, the historical conditionality of their formation, the ways of their manifestation at the present time, and concludes about the ratio of 2 identities.
Key words: regional identity, national identity, Germany, stem duchies, German language, German dialects, German mentality, regional stereotypes in Germany, Martin Luther, "cultural nation", national state.

THE EUROPEAN UNION: A SUPRANATIONAL OR INTERGOVERNMENTAL INTEGRATION COMMUNITY?
The definition of the European Union (EU) is difficult, since it cannot be attributed to federations, like the United States of America, or to classical international organizations, like the WTO or the UN. This raises the question of how the EU can be defined – as an institution standing above all European countries (supranational) or as an association for cooperation between EU states (intergovernmental).
The purpose of this article is to answer the question of what kind of integration community the EU is today. In order to classify the EU, it is necessary to define the concepts of «supranational» and «intergovernmental». Then, some of the main European institutions will be considered in terms of their composition and competence in relation to the EU states.
Key words: European Union, European integration, European Commission, Council of Ministers, Court of Justice of the European Union.

FOREIGN POLICY OF THE FRG IN THE PRESENT STAGE

PERESTROIKA IN THE USSR IN HISTORIOGRAPHY: CURRENT PREFERENCES
The concept of "perestroika", which entered the scientific lexicon and reflects the events in the USSR from 1985 to 1991, after more than thirty years, still not only arouses scientific interest. But science (historical, political science, and others), its representatives have not yet formed about the restructuring of the system of knowledge and ideas. There is also no theory that would formalize at least the basic scientific parameters of perestroika. This one, apparently, will be issued later. But perestroika gave scientists a fantastic feeling, some-gratitude, others-indignation. In connection with the possible publication by the publishing house "Science Today" of the article by Smirnova Yu.V. "Modern historiography of perestroika", there is an opportunity not only to comment on the advantages and disadvantages of this article, but also to offer in this context the author's version of the interpretation of the main and secondary problems covered in the historiography of the topic by Russian and foreign researchers. As a result of our reasoning and our analysis of the available material, we come to a simple conclusion: in modern Russia, in its cities and villages, there are still millions of those for whom perestroika is still the most important and real story, and its interpretation is an essential task of their daily life and the near future.
Key words: perestroika in the USSR, historiography of perestroika.
