SMALL BUSINESS ORIENTATIONS AND IMPLEMENTATION BY MIDDLE CLASS OF ITS SOCIAL AND POLITICAL FUNCTIONS IN THE 1990s.

The article analyzes political orientations of the middle class of the 1990s, represented by small entrepreneurs, and raises the question of what impact these orientations could have had on the ability of the middle class to perform its basic socio-political functions. As a source database, the author used materials of sociological surveys conducted from 1996 to 2000 and published in the database "Russian monitoring of the economic situation and health of the population by RLMS-HSE", as well as materials of sociological surveys conducted by the Obshchestvennoe Mnenie Foundation in 1998 and 2000. The author comes to the conclusion that in the 1990s small entrepreneurs, even being in the minority, were stronger supporters of the new social system, values of market economy and democratic political system than hired employees. However, due to their small number small businesses could not fulfill the function of maintaining social and political stability. In addition, they were forced to adhere to the help of criminal structures and use other illegal methods. Such actions had a negative effect on their ability to transmit liberal democratic values to the society and the attitude towards the entrepreneurs was ambiguous. Thus, although demonstrating adequate orientations during the polls, small businesses in practice failed to perform functions typical for the middle class in democratic systems.

Key words: small business, middle class, political orientations, social and political functions, political stability, liberal democratic values.

COLLECTIVE RESPONSIBILITY AS THE EXTERNAL AND INTERNAL CONTROLLER LOCALIZATION OF INTER-ETHNIC TENSIONS AND CONFLICT

The article discusses the need for the distribution of inter-state and inter-regional (horizontal) responsibility for interethnic and ethno-political conflicts occurring in the regions of the country. According to the author, national public associations do not fully meet the expectations of the Executive and municipal authorities, which are assigned to these entities in the field of strengthening interethnic relations, adaptation of compatriots, their integration into civil society, which, inter alia, is due to the lack of constructive dialogue and proper interaction of leaders of national associations with state and municipal authorities, law enforcement services, which is also due to the lack of understanding in their legitimacy, the authority and respect both of compatriots living in the regions and representatives of the authorities of their national republics. The author proposes to introduce the concept of collective responsibility, which is to consolidate at the international level with the participation of authorized representatives of diplomatic missions in Russia of the countries of the Caucasus, Transcaucasia and Central Asia, national-cultural autonomies (national associations) through the conclusion of tripartite agreements on harmonization of interethnic relations. Inter-regional (horizontal) liability of Executive bodies should become an effective regulator in inter-ethnic relations, sometimes only officials in the region are able to exert effective influence on their compatriots (countrymen) through external control and setting of the individual internal self-regulation.

Key words: national public enterprises, harmonization of interethnic relations, interethnic and ethno-political conflicts, ethnic tensions, inter-ethnic tolerance.

FOREIGN EXPERIENCE OF PUBLIC POLICY IN RESPECT OF RAILWAY TRANSPORT

The article analyzes the foreign experience of the state policy in the field of railway transport and the typology based on the form of ownership is reviewed. The state policy of the USA, countries of Europe, policy of the management of the European Union concerning railway transport is considered. The article highlights both the advantages and disadvantages of the state policy that is conducted in Western countries. The Swedish model is shown separately as an example of a balanced approach of the state to the development of the Railways. The common features in European policy are noted: 1) implementation of railway transport support as one of the key sectors of the economy; 2) preservation of state ownership of infrastructure; 3) preservation of organizational and regulatory functions; 4) financing of infrastructure projects; 5) support of socially important passenger transportations. The article also considers the experience of a number of Asian countries – Japan, China, North Korea, India. The similarity of the Japanese and European models of public policy is noted. It is shown the specific conditions for the development of the Japanese railway transport due to the peculiarities of the network topology and enhanced social orientation in politics. The article also notes that the Soviet model policy in relation to the Railways was applied in China and the North Korea. Both countries maintain tight state control over the Railways. However, in China and India some elements of European models have been introduced. In Brazil, Mexico and Argentina the evolution of government policy towards the Railways was in the same way: firstly, the nationalization of private roads and privatization as ineffective; then the drastic decline of passenger traffic (mostly commuters); and finally, new strengthening of state control or even renationalization. It is concluded that in all countries the ultimate goal is to create a fairly flexible scheme that combines the advantages of different types of property.

Key words: public policy, railway transport, natural monopolies.

It is noted that various bandit groups, using religious slogans, challenge the states of the region and set the task of creating a caliphate on all Muslim lands of Eurasia. It is emphasized that the instability in the north of Afghanistan and the activation of militants pose a security threat not only to the countries of Central Asia, but to China and Russia. It is concluded that Russia, as well as international organizations represented by the CSTO and the SCO, remains the main guarantor of the security of the whole region.

Key words: international terrorism, Central Asia, "Islamic state", Afghanistan, security, Islam.

RENEWABLE SOURCES OF ENERGY AS A MOVING POWER OF ENERGY POLICY OF THE REPUBLIC OF BULGARIA

In my article, I reviewed renewable energy sources as a driving force. At the beginning of the 21st century, mankind is increasingly confronted with the fact that the need for electricity is rapidly increasing. This trend can lead to the fact that the volume of production will increase and subsequently there will be a rapid burning of fossil fuels. This, in turn, may exacerbate one of the global environmental problems - the problem of global warming. World reserves of fuel are approaching the moment of natural exhaustion. The European Union, like in Bulgaria, is aware of the benefits of renewable energy sources (RES). Europe is guided by a new common energy policy, which is a package of comprehensive measures to reorient the economies of Member States to the efficient use of low-carbon energy and also increase energy efficiency. In recent years, climate change has become increasingly more turbulent, and therefore, a new energy policy is emerging on the territory of the European Union and in particular at the national level in Bulgaria.

Key words: Bulgaria, energy, politics, law, national plan, energy sources, the European Union, energy efficiency, electricity.

Its compliance alongside with the principle of the sovereign equality of states provides genuine multipolarity of changing world as feature of world political process that is revealed with the example of BRICS countries.

Key words: UN Charter, principles of International Law, world political process, geopolitics, BRICS, geostrategy.

POLICY OF CHINA'S RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT AND EDUCATIONAL INSTITUTIONS IN THE FIELD OF RUSSIAN STUDIES

The active interest in studying the Soviet Union in the PRC began at the turn of the 1980s, when the party authorities took the course to overcome the consequences of the Soviet-Chinese split. The study of Soviet experience continued after the collapse of the Soviet Union in 1991. After the collapse of the Soviet Union, the PRC and the Russian Federation began to form bilateral ties in the new conditions. In the 1990s, new incentives and opportunities for studying the USSR and Russia appeared in China. On the one hand, studies conducted by Chinese scientists on some topics have reached a high theoretical level. On the other hand, the intensification of research activity was accompanied by errors in practical methodology. The strategic partnership between Russia and China has become one of the priority areas of the PRC foreign policy since the beginning of the 2000s and is continuing successfully. As bilateral relations improve, the study of the Soviet past and Russia at the present stage in the political, historical, economic and other spheres is increasing. At present, there are 26 scientific institutes in China at the academies and universities, in which research into Russia is being conducted to some extent. The article examines the research and educational organizations of the study of Russia in the XXIst century, of which the institutes at universities are divided into two groups: the institutes for studying the Russian language and the institutes for studying Russia, as well as their specific areas of research and function. The purpose of this work is to analyze the research institutions of the People's Republic of China in which they teach different courses in the Russian language and Russian history, and also study Chinese-Russian relations, their present activities that promote educational cooperation between the two countries.

Key words: PRC, scientific-research institutes, educational institutions, Russian language, cooperation between China and Russia, institutes of Russian studies, academy, university.

COMPATRIOTS AS AN ELEMENT OF SOFT POWER

The article considers such issues as the contradictions of compatriots living in Germany in the matter of identification, the problems of the Russian-speaking diaspora in Germany, the analysis of the present constituent soft power of Russia abroad.

POLICY OF NARASIMHA RAO LOOK AT EAST AS INSTRUMENT OF SHAPING INDIA’S FUTURE

India went difficult way in building the statehood after gained of independence in 1947. Many decisions of the Nehru-Gandhi clan had a positive effect on their time. However, it became clear that India needed a new course by the end of the 1980s. The initiator of reforms both inside the country and in foreign policy became the nine Prime minister of the country, the head of the Indian National Congress Narasimho Rao. The head of the Cabinet of Ministers announced the course "Look to the East" in the foreign policy as addition to economic reforms within India. The author puts forward a hypothesis that the mentioned course was not only an attempt by New Delhi to solve current issues but also by following Rao to a certain image of the future according which the country should develop.

Key words: "Look to the East", Indian policy, Narasimha Rao, Reforms of India, The future of India.
