FACTORS OF STABILITY OF THE POLITICAL SYSTEM OF SOCIETY

The subject of this article is the analysis of the democratic development of political systems in terms of the relationship between two factors – state power and political participation. The movement of the political system from one state to another is considered as a political process. The development of the modern political process is studied both at the level of the national social system and at the global level. The place and role of institutions of state power and civil society in the conditions of stable, unstable and crisis states of various modern types of political systems is determined. The regularities of the democratic process in political systems that arise under the influence of changes in the degree of satisfaction of the interests of both society as a whole and the main social groups are revealed and formulated.

Key words: state power, political involvement, political system, political process, authoritarianism, democracy, modernization, optimization of political participation.

CIVILIZATIONAL BORDERLINES AS AN ADVANTAGE

In the current situation, when for a number of reasons everything is moving into a qualitatively different dimension, the former geopolitical guidelines and priorities are losing their significance. There is a redistribution of world centers of political and economic influence. Political, economic mainstreams are changing. There is some chaos, new problems and new challenges. One of the consequences of the current aggravation is the turn to the East announced several years ago. The development of Eurasian geopolitical cooperation and partnership, including its southern direction, is becoming more relevant. The project of Greater Eurasia as a geostrategic and geoeconomic community is gaining ground. Russia's belonging to Asia, the East, once again becomes topical. Such a vector may turn out to be mutually beneficial and mutually beneficial, especially in conditions of a certain lack of alternatives. At the same time, the range of assessments of the prospects and potential of the Eurasian interaction is different – from cautious and skeptical to quite favorable.

Key words: Eurasian space, East Asian region.

FACTORS OF FORMAL AND INFORMAL INSTITUTIONALIZATION OF ETHNICITY IN NOVOSIBIRSK

It is proposed to expand the theoretical and methodological framework of the study of the institutionalization of ethnicity by including a description of not only the factors of formal, but also informal institutionalization.

It is shown that the institutional structures of the federal and municipal levels are based on two foundations: on the one hand, ethnic diversity, which is presented as a virtue and strength, and on the other hand, the unifying role of the Russian language with the dominance of Russian culture. On example of Novosibirsk, it was revealed that the mechanisms of institutional influence have a pronounced cultural orientation.

At the same time, an analysis of the non-institutional factors shows that the actual needs of ethnic groups lie not only in the cultural plane. We are talking about a significant split between groups of the host population and migrants, a decrease in the comfort of the urban environment, actualization of real and potential threats of interethnic conflict, a reduction in the importance of ethnic identity for the younger generation of people who identify themselves as Russians.

Based on the introduction of institutional and non-institutional factors into the study of the institutionalization of ethnicity, an assumption was made about the insufficient effectiveness of the culturally oriented trend, on which the institutional agent is betting.

Key words: institutionalization of ethnicity, nation-building, city, Novosibirsk, migrants, host community, ethnic identity.

IMPORT OF POLITICAL AND LEGAL INSTITUTIONS: PROBLEMS AND SEARCH FOR WAYS TO OVERCOME (PART 1)

The modern world has entered an unprecedented non-linear dynamics, characterized by unpredictability and riskiness of constantly emerging challenges. At present, the vectors of development of nation-states are mainly determined by political and legal institutions, which are assigned more and more new functions and with which the population associates a variety of expectations. Transformation of management practices and changes in the functionality of power structures are vital for key actors, but not all countries can develop their own effective political and legal institutions. Nevertheless, it is the relevance to actual challenges that makes it possible to rely on evolutionary development scenarios desired by states. The first part of the study summarizes the features of the import of political and legal institutions. The author considers the available theoretical approaches and analyzes the practice of transferring political and legal structures. The high role of variables for empirical contexts is emphasized. Important methodological remarks are given on the cultural differences between the countries that have created ideal institutional models and the states directly involved in their import. In conclusion, intermediate results are summed up and vectors are outlined that reveal the role of ideas and intellectuals in political and legal institutional transformations.

Key words: power, society, political and legal institution, import, experience, context, idea.

BIG DATA AND THEIR IMPACT ON THE POLITICAL SITUATION IN THE WORLD

This article analyzes the Big Data Institute and its impact on the political situation in the country and in the world. It is noted that the widespread use of big data has a negative impact on global security, since big data is used not only by the state or business, but also by terrorist organizations, as evidenced by the terrorist attack in Mumbai. In this regard, the conclusion is drawn that propaganda of information security and work with the public to disseminate information that any activity on the Internet leaves digital traces that can subsequently be used against each user and society in in general. In this regard, the purpose of this article was to analyze the impact of big data on the political environment. Achieving this goal became possible against the background of solving such problems as analyzing big data, assessing their impact, and developing measures aimed at optimizing the considered area.

As a result of the study, the author formulates the conclusion that big data should be understood as huge amounts of data that, using a variety of analytical methods, for example, using the machine learning method, can reveal certain patterns, as well as establish correlations and trends. The main idea in the field of processing such data is that the huge amount of data allows users to have information that would hardly be found in the analysis of smaller data. When studying big data, it was found that cybercriminals and terrorist organizations may well use them, and therefore, measures of high preventive importance come to the fore.

Key words: big data, threat, state, security, information, opportunities.

PROSPECTS FOR RUSSIA'S DIALOGUE PARTNERSHIP AND ASEAN IN THE CONDITIONS OF ANTI-RUSSIAN PROXY WARS AND THREAT GROWTH ASEANO-CENTRISM IN SEA

In the proposed article, the authors attempt to analyze the prospects for the development of Russia-ASEAN relations in the conditions of, firstly, the anti-Russian proxy war of the collective West and, secondly, the strengthening of the confrontational component in the concept of Indo-Pacifism and the growing threat to ASEAN-centrism in Southeast Asia. All this cannot but cause Moscow growing concern for the peaceful future of the region. The authors believe that this topic is relevant, since at present there is a high probability of a cardinal reorientation of the foreign policy of the Russian Federation to the Asian direction, when in modern conditions, de facto, according to Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov, dialogue with Western countries does not make sense. Today we have come to the border when the sanctions programs of the collective West against Russia are SDN (Specially Designated Nationals and Blocked Persons), SSI (Sectoral Sanctions Identifications) and sanctions provided for by the US Law "On Countering America's Adversaries through Sanctions" of 2017 (CAATSA) and others, such as the introduction of the USA and others The G7 countries' price limit on Russian oil, as well as the possibility of limiting gas prices, including pipeline and liquefied natural gas (LNG), do not imply a mutually beneficial dialogue. In these circumstances, the need for an audit of the system of Russian foreign economic and foreign policy relations becomes natural. In the context of the accelerated rupture of economic and political relations with the EU countries, the state and business structures of our country are increasingly beginning to build economic and business contacts with the so far relatively politically neutral Southeast Asia, united within the framework of the ASEAN integration bloc. The task of the authors is to explore the possibility of direct dialogues with Southeast Asian countries in order to concentrate Russia's foreign policy activities in the Asian direction. The relationship of the ASEAN countries with Russia and the West is considered as an object of research, and the global crisis in international relations affecting the change of direction of Russian foreign policy is considered as a subject.

Key words: foreign policy relations, security, ASEAN, Russia, West.

And the "cultural revolution", which immediately followed it, led to a change in the principles of the work of national mass media and the filling of their content. The difference in the rising generations, a significant part of which today does not remember the revolution and receives information about it from various sources that perform the function of their socialization, suggests a difference in the perception of political reality.

The purpose of the article is to determine the influence and role of the media in creating a generational gap in Iran.

Methods. The basis of the research methodology was the communicative approach, thanks to which it became possible to identify the mass media as the key institutions of the political processes of the states of the XX-XXI century. The concepts of neoliberalism can be considered an addition to the communicativist approach. A set of general scientific methods, such as comparison, synthesis, analysis, was used as a methodological toolkit for the work. In addition, methods of retrospective analysis and analysis of information messages were used, which made it possible to trace the dynamics and current results of mass media influence.

Results. The Iranian media continue to provide a gap between the generations of the population of this state. As a rule, this division is due to several factors: political orientation, international or domestic vector of broadcasting of a certain media and its type (print, television, radio or electronic), which determines the audience that will address it.

Conclusions. The influence of mass media in the formation of Iranian generations was the most direct. They served as a consolidating core for various social groups in the country. Since today the degree of this consolidation seems to be the smallest, compared with previous periods, the most beneficial option for everyone may be the option of reducing government control over the Iranian media and stimulating their national activity.

Key words: mass media, Islamic Republic of Iran, generation gap, social performances, country's leadership.

ECUADOR. DOLLARIZED ECONOMY AND THE COVID-19 PANDEMIC

Crises affect countries in different ways. Ecuador, having experienced an unsustainable inflationary process in the late 1990s and early 2000s, resorted to dollarization as a response to the crisis. Since then, the dollar has become legal a method of payment, a store of value, and a unit of account or exchange. This study provides a brief description of the impact of dollarization on the Ecuadorian economy, and then takes a closer look at the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the dollarized economy of Ecuador. It can be concluded that the national production apparatus consists of investments in capital with a low technological component. This significantly affects the development of the activities of the national production sector, which, in the context of the pandemic, has not reached an adequate level of transition to the digital mode of operation. On the other hand, it became clear that the digitalization of production, marketing and consumption is the first step towards a digital economy. The second step is the digital transformation of companies. It requires a change in business processes, including the introduction of new technologies aimed at using their advantages and applications in the state, industry, science and society.

Key words: dollarization, economic growth, COVID-19, remote work, Internet access, crisis, small and medium enterprises, digitalization, consequences.

CHINA'S POLICY IN XUAR: ITS DIRECTIONS, MAIN REASONS, AND WAYS TO RESOLVE THE INTERETHNIC CONFLICT

In the current international situation, the Asia-Pacific region is an important area for realizing the interests of our country, and the strategy of "Russia's Pivot to the East" has long been announced by Vladimir Putin as one of the priorities for its foreign policy agenda. In recent years, Russia, having met opposition from Western countries on the way to reviving its status as a great power, has turned the focus of its foreign policy to the East. Relations with China are becoming a foreign policy priority. An important point in these relations is the interaction of the two states in Central Asia. That is why it is important to study the relations between China and the countries of the region, since their changes will also affect Russia's position in it. In turn, relations between these countries and the PRC are seriously affected by the situation in Xinjiang and Beijing's policy in this multinational region.

The problems of the influence of the PRC policy in Xinjiang on the cooperation between Central Asia and China have long attracted the attention of domestic and foreign researchers. In this article, the author analyzes the policy of the PRC in the XUAR, studies its goals, objectives, challenges, and prospects.

CONTRASTING THE DEVELOPMENT OF FOREIGN POLICY IN HISTORY RUSSIA AND CHINA

The article is devoted to the opposition of foreign policy in the history of Russia and China. The opposition of principles, approaches and strategies for the development of the foreign policy of Russia and China is most clearly manifested in the context of international relations, which have a long history of foreign policy relations. During the Soviet period, the foreign policy of both countries was determined by ideological factors and the hostile environment of the Cold War era. Contradictions and crises in the foreign policy of Russia and China were due to ideological differences, cultural differences, disagreements on territorial issues and the unequal nature of relations. By the beginning of the 21st century, in the foreign policy course of Russia and China, there was a tendency towards close international cooperation, towards the convergence of political positions on the main directions of world development. At the same time, the United States and the West were considered at that time as partners in economic and political cooperation. The general and national principles and strategies of China's modern foreign policy, which include openness, reform, tradition and hegemony, are characterized. The specificity of the opposition between the foreign policy of Russia and China is reflected in the activities of various international alliances and blocs. China in the field of international activities is aimed at achieving the goal of developing the world economic system and expanding economic cooperation among the member states of the group. Russia, unlike China, is characterized by a position on international cooperation in resolving issues in the field of ensuring international security. The principles of «soft power» continue to be the common features of the foreign policy of Russia and China to this day.

Key words: Russia, China, foreign policy, soft power, multipolarity.

SOCIAL MEDIA AND THEIR IMPACT ON THE ELECTORAL PROCESS IN RUSSIA AND ABROAD

The global trends of our time show that the phenomenon of social networks is gaining momentum. It moved from the entertainment and advertising realm to the political realm. Social networks are one of the forms of communication. Its entered everyday life and also changed the nature of human interaction, including the contacts of citizens in the field of politics.

In this article, the author examines the influence of social networks on the electoral behavior of Russians in comparison with similar influence abroad. The role of social media and the prospects for improving its impact on the electoral process are being explored.

Political communication in society is becoming more interactive, acting on the principles of the network. In the era of openness and transparency, dry official information about the activities of state actors no longer inspires confidence, and the attention of citizens is increasingly attracted by their "live" accounts on social networks. In addition, social media remains a convenient platform for the dissemination of information and a tool of “soft power” for politicians who use the opportunity to recreate their positive image online and attract voters.

Key words: social networks, elections, election campaign, election process, modern Russia, presidential elections, State Duma, political parties, politician, civil society.
