dc.description.abstract

value:
The article deals with the issue never explored before in Russian legal research: the application
of civil law provisions to the regulation of several types of relationships in customs practices.
The issue is acute as with the changes in civil law it is necessary to find out whether we need to synchronize with this process the other branches, seemingly not related to civil law. Moreover,
the article gives another case in point to the current process of mutual integration in different
spheres and branches of law. The authors expand upon the concept of the complex and predominantly
public nature of customs legislation and attempt to find out, what limits the civil
law has when dealing with the customs regulations. Another interesting point is the interaction
between customs and civil law when applied to relations between businesspersons and
customs bodies and officials. The article analyzes particular features of representation, storage
and warehousing, pledge and guarantee, insurance, when applied in customs practices and the
regulation thereof in customs laws. The research uses comparative methods, showing similarities
and differences in the approach of the relevant customs regulations in Russia, foreign
countries and integrating units such as EU and EAEU. The authors conclude that customs laws
and regulations constitute a perfect example of combined use of legal instruments related to
different law branches and of different nature for the sake of efficiency of the influenced and
regulated system.

dc.description.abstract

value:
The purpose of this article is to identify, which of the original connotations in the
authentic Greek text of Justinian’s Novels (VI century) contained the categories,
for which the researchers would use the term “secular” in order to understand
and translate into modern Russian and English languages, in the extent that this
translation analogy is justified. The research is performed using the method of analyzing
the expressions, which are close in meaning to the concepts of “secular”,
“non-church”, “non-religious”, based on the original Greek text of the Collection
of 168 Novels (stereotype edition by Schoell and Kroll, 1912) and their dictionary
interpretations. The analysis included the comparison of the ways these expressions
were used in different parts of the original Greek text of Justinian’s Novels, as well
as their comparison with historical Latin translations and the modern translation
into Russian and English. The article analyzes the semantic connotations of the concepts
of λαϊκός, ἰδιώτης, κοσμικός, and related expressions κοσμικός βίος, κοσμικὴ
διαγωγὴ and ἰδιωτικὴ διαγωγὴ. The author concludes that these concepts in Justinian’s
Novels were not legally special. They also designated (or constructed) neither
special area of “secular” nor a special social group of “laity”, but they were used apophatically
to explain and emphasize the special status of the clergy and the church
institution. The more precise meaning of λαϊκός, ἰδιώτης, κοσμικός is the state and
pastime of persons, who did not hold any positions, including those at the church.

value:
Inconsistency of the universal character of the theory of secularisation and the increasing
presence of religion in social life has resulted in a new paradigm in sociology
of religion, according to which religion has not been losing its social significance
but has been transforming. Religiousness and spirituality are being differentiated,
with the latter often being a wider construct that also includes religiousness. The
article presents an analytical review of some of the new approaches and measuring
scales published in “Assessing Spirituality in a Diverse World” in 2021 under the
editorship of A. L. Ai, P. Wink et al. These scales are specifically interesting for the
further application of the methods to multidimensional research of students’ spirituality.
During the research the concept of ‘spirituality’, widely used in educational
field, was specified within new paradigms in sociology and psychology of religion;
and three of the most recent approaches in the study of spirituality including research
of ‘new’ spirituality, (non)religiosity/ (non)spirituality, and spirituality as an
aspect of meaning in life were analysed. The analysis shows potential strengths and
weaknesses of the showcased measuring instruments. Review of the recent western
theories and methodologies in the study of spirituality, developing within the field
of sociology and psychology of religion, enriches interdisciplinary knowledge exchange
and invites researches from other fields of humanities to test existing western
methodologies in Russian context.

dc.description.abstract

value:
This article analyzes two approaches to the educational process: postsecular, based
on John Dewey’s educational project, and religious, based on Sergei Rachinsky’s
peasant school project, which was based on the principle of Christian love. The
need to analyze these approaches stems from the global challenges that call for a rethinking
of the philosophical foundations of contemporary education, which until
recently was understood as a “marketplace of educational services”, where all pedagogical
approaches and practices are in demand, while the achievements of educational creativity are losing their most important and essential element — human
personality development. The secularization tendency leads to haphazardness and
randomness in organizing both the educational process and the implementation of
pedagogical training, because the processes are in fact dependent on momentary
and transient historical, political, cultural, and other circumstances. As a result, an
important property of contemporary science is pointed out, which determines the
one-sidedness of any purely secular approach to educational problems. This quality
is manifested in the fact that contemporary science urgently needs such an integrated
discipline as theology, which would unify the diverse achievements of secular
science on the basis of traditional values.

The focus of this article is a critical analysis of the regulatory window of the experimental legal
regime in the field of digital innovation. Its distinctive features are distinguished: its secondary
nature in relation to the basic legal regulation, its ordinariness, its voluntary extension
to business entities, its expansive or neutral influence on the scope of their legal capacity, its
certainty in terms of time and the circle of persons. It is noted that the implementation of the
experimental legal regime in the direction of the financial market has certain features, which
is manifested in the possibility of establishing additional conditions for the experimental legal
regime, separating its secondary regulatory window, giving the Bank of Russia the functions
of an authorized body, etc. Next, the mechanism for establishing an experimental legal regime
is outlined, in which five consecutive stages are distinguished: the introduction of an initiative
proposal to the Ministry of Economic Development (or the Bank of Russia); consideration
of the initiative proposal by the authorized body with the participation of the business community,
branch ministries and the highest authority of the subject of the Russian Federation
(optional); the establishment of an experimental legal regime by the Government of the Russian
Federation; implementation and monitoring of the experimental legal regime, as well as
evaluation of its effectiveness and efficiency. In conclusion, the norms of the experimental
legal regime, potentially tending to corruption-causing factors, are identified and ways to improve
legislation are proposed.

dc.description.abstract

value:
The article is devoted to the analysis of the doctrine of the image of God by Archbishop
Feofan (Prokopovich) and the reformed theologian Amand Polyansky. The
main engine of church reform, Archbishop Feofan, was repeatedly accused of Protestantism,
while others considered his position Orthodox and believed that he used
the works of Protestant authors to build his position. The anthropocentrism of the
New time has posed new questions to theology that require answers and an appropriate
reaction and development of the anthropological provisions of the Christian
doctrine. In this era, there is a surge of appeals to the teachings of St Augustine, on
which both Protestant and Catholic authors relied. At the same time, the assessment
of the Synodal period largely began to be based on the concept of the Western
influence of Russian theology. There is no doubt that there was an influence of
Western theology on the Russian tradition, but it seems premature and unreasonable
to unequivocally negative assessment of this period, which is little studied in
the scientific literature. An assessment of this period becomes possible when referring
to its origins. Using the example of a narrow section of the anthropology of
Archbishop Feofan (Prokopovich), the doctrine of the image of God, it is proposed
to compare his theological positions with the provisions of Amand Polyansky, the
proximity to which has been repeatedly noted by researchers both modern and prerevolutionary
researchers.

dc.description.abstract

value:
The article analyzes the issue of including tax issues in the concept of corporate social responsibility.
The author defines corporate social responsibility as a voluntary acceptance of
obligations by a company that go beyond strictly formal compliance with the letter of the law
and maximize profits as a fundamental goal of corporate activity, but based on society’s expectations
and universal ethical values. Within the framework of this concept, we are talking
about responsibility not only (and not so much) to the state, but to the society as a whole. Can
you remain a socially responsible corporation and still not pay your “fair share” of taxes? Does
society have the right to impose tax requirements on businesses that go beyond the letter of
tax laws? And what does proper tax compliance mean in the context of corporate tax liability?
The author answers in the affirmative. The widespread introduction of ideas and principles
of corporate social responsibility into tax strategies of modern business, accompanied by the
introduction of ethical components in the tax sphere, can significantly increase the level of
tax compliance both within individual countries and at the level of the world community. The
main thing here is the understanding that the key needs, values, ideals and perspectives of the
entire society (and not just the interests of interconnected market players) should be included
in everyday business practices. After all, by supporting “sustainable development” in the context
of CSR, each corporation creates the conditions for its own development. Obviously, the
widespread introduction of ideas and principles of corporate social responsibility into the tax
strategies of modern business, accompanied by the introduction of ethical components in
the field of taxes, can significantly increase the level of tax compliance both within individual
countries and at the level of the global community.

dc.description.abstract

value:
The attitude of law, practice and science to actively appearing sources of evidentiary information
is controversial and belated. Besides some exceptions Criminal Procedure Code does
not contain special rules for handling electronic information. Meanwhile evidentiary rules
were formulated more than half a century ago and were principally oriented only on receiving
analog information. Electronic traces and ways of displaying legally relevant information
contained in them are sospecific that previous procedural forms are not usable nowadays.
Procedural science develops the theory of electronic evidence on a sectoral basis. However,
thecommunity of information-digital technologies which is lying in the core of impetuous
growth of importance of electronic information predetermines the possibility of producing
consolidated intersectoral rules. Examples of foreign science show the success of this approach.
Criminally-remedial practice uses only sourcesby which you can get paper analogs
or conduct an examination while proving. The extension of traditional inspection, seizure,
search and examination to electronic information lowers its efficiency and does not provide a
regime of secrets protected by law. A huge layer of electronic information remains outside the
procedural proof. Its real value is confirmed by its use in law enforcement intelligence-gathering
activities. Defensive side in criminal proceedings is deprived of even a few evidentiary
opportunities in relation to digital information. Civil, Arbitral, Administrative proceedings are more open to recent evidences. Equal rights of the contestants contribute to the development
of electronic evidence. A criminal procedure with a monopoly of the prosecution on it
strengthens the accusatory bias and impoverishes the proof as a whole. A further spread in the
share of electronic evidence in criminal procedural proving requires a change in approaches to
it, a rejection of the exclusively classical rules for dealing with them, the extension of civilistic
approaches to the relevant activities of the defense.

dc.description.abstract

value:
The article examines the implementation of one of the main trends of the IV information revolution,
the digital transformation of society, in law enforcement. By comparing the categories
of “digitalization” and “digital transformation”, the conclusion is justified that digitalisation of
investigation is only an element, a condition of digital transformation. The approach of various
authors to the need for digitalisation and the essence of digitalisation are analysed. The
independent importance of the category “digital transformation of the investigation process”
is justified. It is stated that an “ideological” basis of the digital transformation of the investigation
process should be a unified private theory, and the theory of electronic digital forensics
developed by the author is offered. The analysis of the influence of digital transformation on
crime prediction is marked by the growing importance of Big Data analysis. The impact of
digital transformation on forensic thinking and algorithmic investigation is analysed. It is
stated that new concepts developing within the framework of digital transformation contribute
to development of program specific aides to inductive-deductive activity of an investigator,
as well as prognostic methods of investigation. Considering the concept of cyber-investigator
and appreciating the idea of robotization of some aspects of investigative activity we come to a
conclusion that until full-scale development of artificial intelligence, at least equal to human, it
will be only an auxiliary tool or “remote hands” of human investigator. As a result of the study,
the main tasks of law enforcers, scientists and the main vectors of development of the digital
transformation are identified.

This article analyzes the current state of Russian legal research on the regulation of public private

the legal nature of the PPP agreement, the subject and object composition of PPP, the resolution
of disputes arising from PPP, in order to systematize of existing scientific approaches to these
regulation problems, determining the degree of this knowledge, assessing the dynamics of such
research. Systematization of the main scientific conclusions and argumentation of more than
110 legal publications is carried out in the refraction of the Federal Law on PPP, which become
a “watershed”, a factor that set the directions of scientific and legal discourse in the field of PPP
increased the dominance of some right-wing positions on PPP and the weakening of others. The
Federal Law on PPP provoked intensive dynamics and the overall volume of legal research on
PPP in general. A comparison of the approaches in the legal publications reveals a preponderance
of very significant intra-doctrinal divergences over the few consolidated positions on PPP
legal issues even after the adoption of the Federal PPP Act. In particular, there is still a lack of
consensus on the key legal definitions — PPP and its forms, as well as the PPP agreement as
a contractual construct and its legal nature. The authors note that the existing degree of fragmentation
of positions prevents the creation of a solid theoretical basis for understanding the
problems of legal regulation of PPPs, significantly tangles the scientific search for options and
methods of their solution. In the article proposes promising ideas for future legal research of
PPP. The potential for interdisciplinary research is particularly important for the development of
existing and obtaining new scientific knowledge about PPP.

dc.description.abstract

value:
The information technologies development affects all spheres of human activity, including the
military activities of States. The level of military information technologies development allows
us to talk about a new theatre of military operations — the cyberspace. The likelihood of an
armed conflict in cyberspace is also confirmed by the Tallinn Manual, developed in 2013 and
updated in 2017 by experts from the NATO States with the participation of the International
Committee of the Red Cross. In the context of the high probability of military action in cyberspace,
the starting point for applying international humanitarian law to such situations is the
definition of a cyber armed conflict. The research of this topical issue of modern international
law of armed conflicts is the subject of this article. The author pays attention to the legal definition
of cyberspace in general, and to related problems. In the absence of an international
treaty regulating this area, it was suggested that such treaty should be developed and adopted.
Because there is no definition of “classic” armed conflict in international humanitarian law,
this article offers the author’s definition of “classic” armed conflict based on the analysis of
the law of armed conflicts, relevant practice and international legal doctrine. Based on this
definition, on detailed analysis of the relevant norms of international law, including the norms
proposed by the Tallinn Manual on International Law Applicable to Cyber Operations, on the
doctrine of international law, and taking into account the specifics of cyberspace, the author
gives a comprehensive definition of armed conflict in cyberspace. The author substantiates the
need to use the concept of cyber armed conflict, and not the terms “cyberwar” or “information
war”. This article focuses on and evaluates the relevant provisions of the Tallinn Manual. The
author also made suggestions on possible solutions to the problems discussed in this article.

dc.description.abstract

value:
In the development of China’s Internet industry and digital economy, great importance is
attached to the protection of personal data and seriously protects the legitimate rights and
interests of citizens’ personal data. Generally speaking, with the development of technology and industry, China’s personal data protection has gone from “indirect protection” to “direct
protection” and then to “comprehensive protection”. In the early years of China’s Internet industry,
the indirect protection of personal data was mainly achieved through the protection
of the “rights to privacy” of citizens. Since the Internet industry of the People’s Republic of
China has entered a stage of rapid development, the state began to directly protect personal
data in accordance with the provisions of the Chapter “Network Information Security” established
in the “Cyber Security Law” of 2016, establishes several principles for the collection and
use of personal data, protection requirements information security. Until November 1, 2021,
the “Personal Data Protection Law of the People’s Republic of China” (PPD) was adopted to
comprehensively protect personal data, reflecting the ideology of development focused on
bringing the people to the center, meeting the new needs and aspirations of the people in the
new era, and also proposing the creation international digital legal order “Chinese version”.
The PPD further expands the scope of the object of personal data protection, comprehensively
establishes the rights of individuals to process data, strengthens the obligations to protect
personal data processors, creates strict rules for the protection of sensitive personal data and
regulates the processing of personal data by public authorities, as well as improving the means
of legal protection of personal data, all of which are important points in the legislation. The
law incorporates advanced foreign experience, while emphasizing Chinese wisdom, the spirit
of the times, and practicality in accordance with the reality of China.

dc.description.abstract

value:
The consideration of the peculiarities of the constitutional and legal statuses of the governments
of the Eurasian Economic Union (EAEU) states (Russia, Belarus, Kazakhstan, Armenia
and Kyrgyzstan), in the context of the economic integration in the Eurasian post-Soviet
space that is increasingly deepening today, is of considerable practical interest. The authors
note that the differences in the constitutional and legal statuses of the governments of the
EAEU states are primarily due to the peculiarities of the forms of government enshrined in
the constitutions of these states, which, for the most part, cannot be classified according to
the traditionally distinguished sub-forms of the republican form of government. Despite the
debatable nature of the structure of the constitutional and legal status of the government, the
authors, taking into account the peculiarities of the forms of government enshrined in the
EAEU states, focus on such elements as: constitutional and legal characteristics; composition,
procedure for the formation and early termination of powers; competence. Summing up the
overall results of the study, the authors come to the conclusion that, despite the presence of
common views on economic integration, the EAEU states do not seek unification in terms of
the organization of state power on their territory. However, despite this, the general trends
towards the possible improvement of the constitutional and legal status of the governments
of the majority of the EAEU states can still be identified. These include, first of all, a gradual
increase in the degree of independence of governments from the head of state, which, in turn,
can be achieved by strengthening the direct interaction of the government with the parliament,
as well as by taking into account the opinion of the parliament or its lower house when
forming or early termination of the government’s powers.

dc.description.abstract

value:
The processes of digitalization and technologization developed the social relations, but also
acted as a catalyst for the development of illegal activities. A typical example of a crime of
this group is fraud using electronic means of payment. Based on the low detection rate of this
crime, about 30 %, according to the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Russia, as well as the high
degree of latency of illegal banking transactions, the optimization of preventive activities is of
particular relevance, which requires research the personality of the offender. Within the framework
of this article, the socio-demographic, socio-role and socio-psychological substructures
of the offender’s personality are analyzed. The official statistics for the period 2013–2020 were
studied, as well as the judicial practice in the amount of 115 verdicts in criminal cases for the
same period. The typical gender of the offender, his age, education and territory of residence,
his professional affiliation were established. The analysis of the socio-psychological substructure
of the personality made it possible to produce a conclusion about the depth and stability
of the criminalization of the offender, as well as his criminal motivation. As a result of a
comprehensive study, a criminological portrait of the personality of a fraudster in the field of
misuse of electronic means of payment was compiled, contradictions were revealed between
the portraits of the personality of a general criminal fraudster and a cybercriminal formed in
the doctrine of criminology with the data obtained. The results of the study can be used in the
framework of improving the prevention of crimes committed using information technology
in general, and the misuse of electronic means of payment, in particular.

This article raises the problem of the uncertainty of legal norms related to speech offenses,
which can be traced, in particular, in Art. 5.61 “Insult” of the Code of Administrative Offenses
of the Russian Federation in relation to the concepts of a generalized negative assessment and
indecent form of expression. The author believes that the adoption of a new wording of the
plot of this article did not eliminate the existing uncertainty, on the contrary, new, even more
uncertain elements led to the danger of an arbitrary broad interpretation of this legal norm
and equally arbitrary judicial decisions in cases of insult. The article emphasizes that under
such conditions, linguistic expertise becomes of particular importance as an important way
to establish the essential signs of insult. However, despite the fact that, in relation to the legal sphere, one can quite confidently speak of the already established institution of linguistic
expertise, nevertheless, in cases involving personal insults, linguistic experts continue to face
a number of problems. Difficulties are associated with the assessment of a particular word as
subject to the disposition of an insult, with the definition of decency/indecency of a linguistic
form of expression, with the inability to codify the norms of morality and morality, with the
use of various linguistic approaches by experts, as a result of which many questions remain debatable.
Examples of such situations are also given in the article. According to the author, the
legislator should clearly define the conceptual content of all components of the objective side
of offenses related to personal insult, at the same time, professional linguists should develop a
common understanding and a common strategy in solving these problems. This article is an
attempt to take a step in this direction.

The issue of subjects of the right to self-determination is one of the most controversial issues
in the theory of international law. The author, researching etymology, as well as cases
of application of concepts “people” and “nation”, pays attention to their interchangeability
and sometimes identification. The author proposes to view people (in a narrow sense) as a
spatial, related to a particular socio-economic, linguistic, cultural and spiritual way of life, of
individuals. Broadly speaking, a people is characterized as a social community that acquires
a political identity and thereby becomes a nation, under certain circumstances, a State. The
article proposed criteria for the self-determination of peoples and nations in accordance
with the current international order and architecture. The research focuses on institutions
such as uti possidetis juris and remedial secession. The author’s analysis of the advisory
opinion of the International Court of Justice on Kosovo is of some interest. In considering
the problem of indigenous and small-numbered peoples and national minorities, the author
proceeds from the possibility that they may exercise their right to self-determination in the form of territorial autonomy or self-organization (self-government), depending on their
number, characteristics of resettlement and other circumstances. Both models (territorial
and extraterritorial) are designed to give indigenous peoples their identity, based, inter alia,
on established traditions and customs, Development in accordance with the fundamental
laws of the State and the norms of international law, while preserving the stability and territorial
integrity of the State. On the basis of the jurisprudence of the Human Rights Committee,
various aspects of the legal personality of individuals in the exercise of the right to
self-determination have been examined.

dc.description.abstract

value:
Juvenile delinquency is one of the most difficult problems of modern society. These persons,
being socially active, perceive both positive and negative features of not only peers, but also
older persons. Cases when from an early age a person is in a dysfunctional family environment, because the socio-negative factors affecting him are magnified. Every crime committed
by a person under the age of 18 has many causes from a criminological point of view. However,
a key role is given to the family, since the negative impact on the character and behavior is
carried out from the earliest childhood. Among the negative factors that directly affect the
commission of a crime by a minor, we can primarily include the general family atmosphere, if
it has a destructive effect on the psyche of the child. This is manifested in the illegal behavior
of adults, lack of spiritual family values, unhealthy psychological climate in the family. Family
problems create a number of conditions that contribute to the formation of the personality of
the juvenile offender. These include: living of a minor in unsanitary conditions; lack of sufficient
living space for education and life; insufficient family income, which negatively affects
the place of a minor in the society of peers; examples of negative behavior of adult family
members (offenses, alcoholism, drug addiction); incorrect relationship between parents and
child; the use of violence against minors as an educational measure. Therefore, timely and accurate
diagnosis of micro-social causes that form the personality of a juvenile offender and the
development of comprehensive preventive measures are required.

dc.description.abstract

value:
The article examines a legal phenomenon that has not received a generalized legal characteristic,
its research in international family law is fragmentary. The reasons for the “lame” relationships
are analyzed: differences in conflict of laws regulation, incorrect application of conflict of
laws rules, discrepancy between substantive regulations, conflict of jurisdictions; it is concluded
that “lame” relationships are the result of the interaction of conflict of laws, substantive and
procedural norms, leading to an undesirable legal effect. The author expresses doubts about
the effectiveness of such a method of eliminating “lame” relationships as the convergence of
legal systems, suggesting to pay attention to the competing traditional conflict tools and the
opposite methodological approach — recognition, the potential of which is underestimated
and insufficiently studied. Recognition is seen not as an alternative to conflict method, but as an additional way to overcome “lame” relationships. Replacement of national conflict of
laws rules in cross-border family disputes is illustrated by the practice of the European Court
of Human Rights and the Court of Justice of the European Union. Attention is drawn to the
existing models of recognition in common law countries and continental legal tradition, the
legal nature and place of the norms of Russian family legislation on recognition are analyzed.
The mechanism of recognition of foreign administrative procedures and decisions, foreign
documents in the Russian Federation is assessed. The author comes to the conclusion that
implementation in domestic law of various approaches to the recognition of foreign court
decisions, administrative procedures and documents issued by the competent authorities of
foreign states, proposing to unify them within the framework of a uniform recognition procedure
that excludes uncertainty and internal contradictions.

The article examines how the concept of genocide has evolved at the international and national
legal levels, beginning with its origins at the doctrinal level and culminating in international
conventions and national regulatory acts. Challenges regarding the definition of genocide and
ambiguous interpretation of genocide in relation to crimes against humanity were identified.
It is demonstrated that international justice bodies interpret the concept of genocide differently.
The study concluded that humanity did not fully utilize the potential of the United Nations
and International Criminal Tribunals in order to develop a joint measured approach to assessing
historical events, specifically World War II and the genocide in 1939–1945, in the context
of actualizing history and triggering memory wars. The positions of states to consolidate the
crime of genocide in criminal legislation are considered: compliance with the definition of
genocide in international conventions, extension of the list of groups against whose members
the genocide can be committed, leaving the list open as to which groups can be included. The
preferences of the second option are shown. Examples of states turning to the facts of genocide
committed in the past are given (for instance, Armenia towards Turkey, Namibia towards
Germany, Poland towards Germany and Russia, Russia towards Germany and its allies during
World War II), and it has been suggested that the material responsibility of states cannot be applied to events before 1945, since the desire to avoid it leads to non-recognition of political
international-legal responsibility.

The 2016 referendum did not bring a decisive advantage to either supporters (Bremainers) or
opponents (Brexiters) of Britain’s membership in the European Union, which led to their acute
confrontation and a prolonged political crisis in the United Kingdom. The aim of the study is
to determine the impact and consequences of the struggle of rival forces in the leading parties
of Britain — Conservative and Labour — on their course on the main issues of British foreign
policy after the parliamentary elections of 2019 and Britain’s exit from the EU. The struggle of
the rival forces goes through the lines of inter- and intra-party division, and its methods go beyond
the traditions and unwritten rules previously adopted in the political culture of the United
Kingdom. The tough struggle on foreign policy issues is closely linked to domestic politics. The
victory of the Conservative Party in the 2019 elections ensured the adoption by Parliament of
laws strengthening the executive power to the detriment of the legislative and judicial (who
sided with the Bremainers). The documents of the government, parliament, parties and media
materials analysis is presented of the methods used by Brexiters and Bremainers to weaken each
other, complicating relations with the US and the EU, sacrificing bilateral relations with Russia
to their narrow-party interests. The confrontation continues, plunging Britain into a new round
of political and economic crisis, which calls into question the ambitious goals of “Global Britain”.

The article raises the question of the place of Tropical Africa in the system of British foreign
policy priorities before and after Brexit. It is shown that the African continent traditionally
played an important role in the colonial empire of the United Kingdom, and its importance
only intensified under the conditions of decolonization and the Cold War, which was
demonstrated by the first visit in the colonial history of the country of the British leader of
H. Macmillan to Africa south of the Sahara in February 1960 (“Year of Africa”) and drawing
attention to the future of the continent in connection with the acquisition of sovereign
status by the colonies. However, after this tour, the weakening of Britain’s ties with the
continent in the trade, economic, political and other spheres gradually began to occur, and
only after the Brexit referendum on June 23, 2016, the UK announced a reset of relations
within the loud slogan and foreign policy line “Global Britain”. In August 2018, Prime
Minister T. May made a large-scale visit to the key countries of Tropical Africa, similar to
H. Macmillan’s trip in terms of numbers, status and intentions, on the eve of the completion
of a series of negotiations with the European Union and the country’s withdrawal
from it. In addition to analyzing two of the British leaders’ trips, the article raises important
contemporary questions about the incompleteness of decolonization, the future of
development policy, and the overall prospects for the UK’s relationship with sub-Saharan
Africa. Attention is also paid to the economic aspects of interaction between the parties
and the updated priorities of Britain in the context of the pandemic and the challenges of
European and global security under the influence of a new configuration of the system of
international relations.

dc.description.abstract

value:
Scotland’s international activities are interesting in many respects. Firstly, the region has a long
history of political struggle for independence, having formulated the concept of “Scotland is a
country” by now. Secondly, starting with the preparations for the 2019 general election campaign,
the Scottish National Party (SNP), as the political leader of the region, has launched a
program of “internationalization of Scotland”, stating not only international ambitions, but
also the use of international relations to strengthen the position of Scotland as independent
nation in the international arena. Thirdly, Scotland seeks to demonstrate itself as a responsible
player, offering its innovations in the field of strengthening partnership and peace, and proving
that the whole world will benefit from an independent Scotland (it is no coincidence that
SNP party documents often mention that “the Scots are conscientious citizens of the world”).
Fourthly, the independence of Scotland is offered by the SNP as a tool for realizing the rights
of citizens to participate personally in the international agenda. Thus, we note both the growing
international ambitions of Scotland and their international recognition. In general, the
Scottish model of paradiplomacy is the use of all possible international platforms and the creation
of new ones to form a positive image of the region. The goal of the article: to analyze the
strategy of international activity of Scotland and correlate it with the practical activity of the
region. The study was carried out on the basis of a political-historical approach, which means
an analysis of regional processes in any area in the context of national and macro-regional
development (in this case, we understand the European Union as a macro-region). The research
method within the framework of the chosen approach was the case study method.
Accordingly, the article compared various indicators of regional involvement in international
processes after Brexit in the longer period of Scotland’s entry into the international arena after
1998, i. e. implementation of the Scottish Act. This allows us to talk about the dynamics of the
region’s international activity and its prospects.

value:
After Brexit, Britain has vowed to build a “Global Britain”. Guided by this strategy, the Great
Britain’s policy towards People’s Republic of China is undergoing a more dramatic adjustment,
which has brought the relations between China and the United Kingdom from a “golden era”
to a more turbulent and unpredictable period of today. Overall, Britain’s current policy toward
China is based on a range of policy tools, such as investment screening, Indo-Pacific Policy, as
well as bilateral mechanisms, to catch the Chinese market for economic gain, while politically
following the United States and provoking China on ideological and sovereignty matters in
order to maintain its alliance with the West. Given in general the increase of negative perceptions
of British public opinion of China, as well as the dramatic changes in the international
situation (including the occurrence of major geopolitical events such as the Russian-Ukrainian
military conflict), adjustments in the UK’s policy toward China will continue for some
time, which will impact the stability of Sino-British relations. In the future, based on pragmatism,
Britain’s China policy will maintain a flexible balance between maintaining selective
cooperation with China in economy and global governance and deepening confrontation with
China in the political sphere.

In many cases the perfect capital mobility hypothesis is used by default. Therefore, if we follow
this idea there should not be any connection between internal savings and investments in a country
or at least this connection must be not significant. But some of empirical research demonstrate
opposite results. In economic literature this concept is well-known as the “Feldstein — Horioka
Puzzle”. Considering the relative lack of studies concerning this theme on the regional level, it
seems quite perspective to research the hypothesis from the mesoeconomical point of view. So,
the central aim of this article is the verification of regional capital mobility in the Russian Federation,
following the logics of the Feldstein — Horioka Puzzle. The main peculiarity of the paper
is based on the application a spatial econometric approach. The authors use SLX (spatial lag of X
model) and SDM (spatial Durbin model) models to achieve the aim. As the result it was found out
that there is almost perfect capital mobility situation on the regional level in the Russian Federation.
Hereby the Feldstein — Horioka Puzzle was rejected. Along with it several significant direct
and indirect effects were established (for instance, reinforced interaction between geographical
neighbors-region, absent of capital flow from some regions and other). The results can be used for
the consideration of relatively more efficient regional government policy.

The article discusses the reasons and factors that make it necessary to transform the structure
of the energy sector and approaches developed to implement the state policy of energy transition
in modern conditions without creating an additional burden on the environment. The
relevance of the topic is confirmed by the global trend of transition to the use of alternative
energy sources, the development of low-carbon technologies and considerations of the exhaustibility
of sources of fossil raw materials with the objective need to find ways to develop alternative
energy, as well as increased external sanctions pressure. A brief review of approaches
to the development of energy strategies in several foreign countries is presented including relevant
documents of the USA, European Union, Germany and France. The conclusion is made
about the global nature of the energy transition processes and the seriousness of the challenges
facing Russia in the context of current trends in the transformation of the world energy industry
and attempts to use the energy transition factor to increase external pressure. The current
Russian strategic planning documents at the federal, sectoral and regional levels are analyzed
in terms of reflecting the state policy measures for the development of renewable energy and
the decarbonization of the economy. Among the documents of the federal level, the strategies
of national security, economic security, the strategy of socio-economic development with low
greenhouse gas emissions (low-carbon strategy) and the strategy for the development of the
Arctic zone are considered. Industry strategies for the development of metallurgy, energy,
transport, construction, science and technology are analyzed, as well as regional strategies for
some subjects of the Russian Federation. The conclusion is made that it is necessary to develop
a systemic long-term state policy in the field of energy transition and its introduction in the
strategies of industries and regions of Russia.

“Central Bank Digital Currencies (CBDCs)” is a relatively new but very fast developing story.
The rush of central banks all over the world toward CBDCs proof-of-concept studying and
piloting in recent years, as well as somewhere already the practical implementation of their
own digital currencies have been motivated by a number of factors that are analyzed in this
study. The potential gains of CBDC domestic issue and application can be distinctly outlined
today. But, the leading central banks, following to the basic principle “do no harm!”, are acting
as carefully and slowly as possible in order to avoid the negative consequences of an abrupt
shifts in the contemporary financial landscape. However, successful progress of the People’s
Bank of China in piloting the digital yuan, as well as the launch of CBDCs in the Bahamas,
Nigeria, Jamaica and the countries of the Organization of Eastern Caribbean States, not only
stimulate other states to intensify their own research developments for CBDC, but also raise
the question of future implementation of CBDCs for international settlements. The study’s
key hypothesis, put forward by the author, is that the inevitable approaching issue of central
bank digital currencies will create unique opportunities to enhance significantly the quality
of settlement and payment systems not only domestically, but, and especially, internationally.
CBDCs’ implementation for cross-border transactions will help to overcome the long-known
but still unresolved hurdles of the existing archaic infrastructure of international settlements:
low speed, high costs, limited access and insufficient transparency.

In the past three decades, many analytical and quantitative models have been developed that
seek to explain the inequalities in the spatial distribution of wealth and people, from international
and regional to urban. We show that a number of theoretical and empirical works
have shaped the New Economic Geography, whose framework is defined by general equilibrium
models, heterogeneity, and microeconomic data of quantitative models. Early theoretical
work focused on stylized analytical models that made empirical research difficult. The transition
to empirical research required a revision of the canonical assumptions that are used in the
basic models. Quantitative models focus mainly on applied issues of spatial economics with
significant public policy implications. Quantitative models validate the results of analytical
models using classic micro-foundations borrowed from urban and transport economies. The
challenge for the New Economic Geography is an interdisciplinary dialogue with institutional
economics, economic sociology, and endogenous growth theory to explore the problems of
institutional heterogeneity and inequality of opportunity. In fact, we can talk about the fusion
of disciplines, which will allow us to apply the provisions of the New Economic Geography to
the analysis of historical, geographical and other modes of functioning of institutions.

value:
This article examines the impact of a stock exchange’s migration on its trading activity and
the performance of competing markets. It examines the importance of the location of trading
floors for all market participants; analyzes the relationship between the location of a trading
floor and the speed of transactions in the stock market, as well as the impact of accelerating
transactions on trading activity. The migration of the Euronext exchange from Paris to Basildon
on September 25, 2010, was chosen as the event under study. The method of matched
pairs demonstrates the possibility of rationalizing of experimental and control sample for further
analysis and modeling of the impact of the relocation of the considered stock market on
its and competing exchange’s performance. It is illustrated multidirectional changes in the
shares of the value volume of trading and the number of transactions on the Euronext exchange
itself and four competing markets. In order to model the impact of the migration of
the exchange the method of “difference-in-differences” is suggested, that bases on the use of
experimental and control samples and on the construction of regression equations of a special
kind. Theoretical bases, advantages and disadvantages of the application of the method of “difference
of differences” in the analysis of the impact of certain events on economic results were analyzed. Empirical estimates showed a different expected increase in the value of trading
volume after the event on the Euronext and Chi-X Europe exchanges. It is noted that as a result
of the migration, the Euronext exchange became closer to the alternative trading floors located
in London. This accelerated the execution of transactions between them, and stimulated the
alternative markets to become more competitive, faster and more fully reflect the changes
taking place on the main Euronext Paris market.

dc.description.abstract

value:
Although international environmental cooperation goes back several decades, negotiation
and rule-making processes aimed at ensuring sustainable development of the individual regions
and world economy have intensified in last years. In the context of the simultaneous
intensification of international pressure to “green up” world economy and the growing contradictions
between the international actors, the team of authors set a goal to identify the areas
of common interest and main disagreements in the positions of key actors on the transition
to low carbon development. The research is based on the use of historical and systemic approaches,
analytical, bibliographic, logical, structural methods. The authors put forward and
test the hypothesis about the primacy of the international approach to the “greening up” of the
modern economy. The evolution of the perception of greenhouse gas emissions from a natural
satellite of economic progress (before the 1960s) to the main cause of global warming (since
the 1990s) is shown. Key international climate agreements and initiatives were systematized,
to record the transition from strict top-down benchmarks of harmful emissions reduction to
softer self-determined commitments and “green” projects. The conducted correlation analysis
revealed the reasons for national differences in the formation of the climate agenda. For
the studied group of countries, population and GDP have the greatest impact on CO2 emissions.
Developed countries are characterized by an inverse relationship: population growth
and GDP growth lead to a decrease in emissions, which can be explained by the predominant
share of the service sector in the national economy. Industry and foreign direct investment are
the key generators of hydrocarbon pollution in the EU, in India and China respectively. The impossibility of resolving problems at the regional level has led to the delegation of authority
to national and international institutions. The article will be of interest to specialists involved
in the shaping environmental programs, experts in the field of the regional economy.

dc.description.abstract

value: Improvement of efficiency of oil and gas reservoir development is directly connected with the reliability of the implemented development project, characterized by its full adequacy to the reservoir conditions. Such adequacy in designing the development of oil and gas reservoirs is most often ensured by providing comprehensive informativeness of the implemented reservoir hydrogasdynamic model, even with insufficient information about the physical and geological characteristics of the model. Due to the great diversity of these characteristics that directly affect development indicators, and the need to know them during the reservoir development process, the said adequacy of the implemented development project is established by using the effective algorithms, which maximally take into account these aspects of providing comprehensive informativeness of the implemented reservoir hydrogasdynamic model, one of which is the identification algorithm. The implementation of this algorithm can identify the physical and geological characteristics of the reservoir system hydrogasdynamic model being implemented, using the reservoir development data for the previous periods (according to the development history). In view of the above, the article proposes a method for identification of filtration-capacitative parameters of the relaxation-deformed reservoir based on the model of real gas filtration in the gas mode, using data from the development history. This technique makes it possible to simulate changes (to carry out identified determination) of permeability and porosity in all points of the relaxation-deformable gas reservoir, as well as to obtain a corresponding gas-dynamic predictive model of development.

title: Model Map and Multistability for a Two Predator-One Prey System

dc.contributor.author

value: Söderbacka, Gunnar Johannes

dc.description.abstract

value: This work contains a review of some important results on a known two predators - one prey system. We also add essential new numerical results on multiple attractors. We consider the case when the predators coexist. We distinguish two possibilities. The first is when the dynamics is well described by the dynamics of a one dimensional map. We discuss the main behaviour of this map. For small parameter regions the map can have two attractors but no more than two. We give a numerical example, when these two attractors exist in the original three-dimensional model. The second case is when this model map is not working and something like spiral chaos often occurs. We give numerical results showing that in this case there can be at least four different attractors and discuss the behaviour of these.

title: Mean-square Approximation of Iterated Ito and Stratonovich Stochastic Integrals: Method of Generalized Multiple Fourier Series. Application to Numerical Integration of Ito Sdes and Semilinear Spdes (third Edition)

dc.contributor.author

value: Kuznetsov, Dmitriy Feliksovich

dc.description.abstract

value: This is the third edition of the monograph (first edition 2020, second edition 2021) devoted to the problem of mean-square approximation of iterated Ito and Stratonovich stochastic integrals with respect to components of the multidimensional Wiener process. The mentioned problem is considered in the book as applied to the numerical integration of non-commutative Ito stochastic differential equations and semilinear stochastic partial differential equations with nonlinear non-commutative trace class noise. The book opens up a new direction in researching of iterated stochastic integrals. For the first time we use the generalized multiple Fourier series converging in the sense of norm in Hilbert space for the expansion of iterated Ito stochastic integrals of arbitrary multiplicity k with respect to components of the multidimensional Wiener process (Chapter 1). Sections 1.11-1.13 (Chapter 1) are new and generalize the results of Chapter 1 obtained earlier by the author and are also closely related to the multiple Wiener stochastic integral introduced by Ito in 1951. The convergence with probability 1 as well as the convergence in the sense of n-th (n=2, 3,...) moment for the expansion of iterated Ito stochastic integrals have been proved (Chapter 1). Moreover, the rate of both types of convergence has been established. The main difference between the third and second editions of the book is that the third edition includes original material (Chapter 2, Sections 2.10-2.19) on a new approach to the series expansion of iterated Stratonovich stochastic integrals of arbitrary multiplicity k with respect to components of the multidimensional Wiener process. The above approach allowed us to generalize some of the author's earlier results and also to make significant progress in solving the problem of series expansion of iterated Stratonovich stochastic integrals. In particular, for iterated Stratonovich stochastic integrals of the fifth and sixth multiplicity, series expansions based on multiple Fourier-Legendre series and multiple trigonometric Fourier series are obtained. In addition, expansions of iterated Stratonovich stochastic integrals of multiplicities 2 to 4 were generalized. These results (Chapter 2) adapt the results of Chapter 1 for iterated Stratonovich stochastic integrals. Two theorems on expansion of iterated Stratonovich stochastic integrals of arbitrary multiplicity k based on generalized iterated Fourier series with pointwise convergence are formulated and proved (Chapter 2). The results of Chapters 1 and 2 can be considered from the point of view of the Wong-Zakai approximation for the case of a multidimensional Wiener process and the Wiener process approximation based on its series expansion using Legendre polynomials and trigonometric functions. The integration order replacement technique for iterated Ito stochastic integrals has been introduced (Chapter 3). Exact expressions are obtained for the mean-square approximation error of iterated Ito stochastic integrals of arbitrary multiplicity k (Chapter 1) and iterated Stratonovich stochastic integrals of multiplicities 1 to 4 (Chapter 5). Furthermore, we provided a significant practical material (Chapter 5) devoted to the expansions and mean-square approximations of specific iterated Ito and Stratonovich stochastic integrals of multiplicities 1 to 6 from the unified Taylor-Ito and Taylor-Stratonovich expansions (Chapter 4). These approximations were obtained using Legendre polynomials and trigonometric functions. The methods constructed in the book have been compared with some existing methods (Chapter 6). The results of Chapter 1 were applied (Chapter 7) to the approximation of iterated stochastic integrals with respect to the finite-dimensional approximation of the Q-Wiener process (for integrals of multiplicity k) and with respect to the infinite-dimensional Q-Wiener process (for integrals of multiplicities 1 to 3).

dc.description.abstract

value: The dynamics of three coupled generators capable of demonstrating autonomous quasi-periodic oscillations is studied. The complex structure of the Lyapunov charts of the system is discussed, which reveals invariant tori of different dimensions, quasi-periodic bifurcations of tori, and Arnold’s resonant web based on tori of different dimensions. Cases of different types of tuning of individual generators (periodic oscillations, quasi-periodic oscillations) are considered. A detailed numerical bifurcation analysis of the equilibrium state and limit cycles, which form a complex picture of dynamic regimes, is carried out.Common features and differences compared to the case of three coupled van der Pol oscillators are discussed.

value: In this paper, we study the questions of the discontinuity of the extreme oscillation exponents on the set of linear homogeneous differential systems with continuous coefficients on the positive axis. The existence of points on a set of differential systems is established in which all the higher and lower exponents of the oscillation zeros, roots, and hypercorns are not only not continuous, but are not continuous either from above or from below. Moreover, the non-invariance of the extreme exponent of oscillations with respect to infinitesimal perturbations has been proved. When proving the results of this work, the cases of parity and odd order of the matrix of the system are considered separately.

title: Networked Iterative Learning Control Under Changing Operating Mode of Agents and Configuration of Information Network

dc.contributor.author

value: Koposov, Anton Sergeevich

dc.description.abstract

value: The paper considers the iterative learning control (ILC) design problem of a network system under changing operating mode of subsystems (agents) and configuration of information network. The network system consists of identical agents, which are discrete linear dynamic plants operating in a repetitive mode. The operating modes of agents depend on their parameters and the reference trajectory, which must be tracked with required accuracy at output of system. The configurations of information network define the group of functioning agents and the type of information exchange between them. The mode and the configuration change takes place in accordance with certain external rules. The control design is based on the divergent method of the vector Lyapunov function. For reducing the transient error caused by the mode change and the connection of new agents, a special rule for switching the ILC law is proposed. The results of modeling the obtained control law for a group of manipulators with flexible link are presented.

value: Kirichenko, Pavel Vladimirovich

dc.description.abstract

value: The article is devoted to the development of the regularization method by S.A. Lomov on singularly perturbed problems in the presence of spectral singularities of the limit operator. In particular, a regularized asymptotic solution is constructed for the singularly perturbed inhomogeneous Cauchy problem that arises in the quasiclassical approximation in the Schroedinger equation in the coordinate representation. The potential energy profile chosen in the paper leads to a singularity in the spectrum of the limit operator in the form of a <> turning point. Based on the ideas of asymptotic integration of problems with unstable spectrum, S.A. Lomov and A.G. Eliseev, it is indicated how and from what considerations regularizing functions and additional regularizing operators should be introduced, the formalism of the regularization method for the indicated type of singularity is described in detail, this algorithm is substantiated, and an asymptotic solution of any order with respect to a small parameter is constructed.

value: The problem of the root-mean-square convergence for approximations of multiple stochastic Stratonovich integrals based on the generalized multiple Fourier series method using Walsh and Haar functions is considered. It is shown that when they are chosen to expand multiple stochastic integrals, the proof of the root-mean-square convergence of a subsequence of series partial sums, which is formed in a way that is quite natural for these functions, does not require the explicit fulfillment of any additional conditions, except for the condition of the existence of the multiple stochastic Stratonovich integral.

value: In this article, we investigate the kinetic McKean model. The perturbed solution of the Cauchy problem is sought in the form of Fourier series. The Fourier coefficients for the zero and nonzero modes are written out, respectively. The original system is reduced to an infinite system of differential equations. An approximation for the systems is constructed. Under certain assumptions, we find secular terms (non-integrable part). This, in turn, will allow us to prove for the first time the exponential stabilization of the solution in the future.

value:
The results of theoretical and empirical research of the phenomenology and mechanisms
of social cognition in the conditions of fluid modernity, social uncertainty and transitivity are summarized in this article. The starting point is the position of the scientific school of
G. M. Andreeva, according to which social cognition is considered as an affective and cognitive
process of constructing the image of the social world in the individual and public
consciousness. A new transdisciplinary concept of social cognition, which integrates the
principles of psychology of cultural activity and social constructionism, as well as theories of
social representations and collective emotional experiences is presented. The new research
direction that greatly expands the subject area of psychological investigation of social cognition
— the social psychology of everyday life is verified. It is everyday life that acts as the
optics of the analysis of subjective perception and emotional experience of social changes
as a situation of uncertainty in various spheres of everyday life of society and culture (from
new media to contemporary art). The proposed and implemented aesthetic paradigm in
the social psychology of everyday life combines two ways of understanding, explaining and
predicting social changes: scientific-conceptual and artistic-figurative (or visual). Thus, the
aesthetic paradigm synthesizes the scientific and aesthetic discourses of psychology and art
history. In this regard, it is a flexible methodological strategy that opens up the prospects
for a multidimensional analysis of modern society and culture that cannot be conceptualized
in traditional categories of social cognition (for example, mental models, categorization,
causal attribution). On the basis of the aesthetic paradigm of everyday life, a new construct
of precarity is introduced for domestic psychology, which means individual and collective
emotion experience of total vulnerability, fragility and insecurity of a person in a situation of
uncertainty. This construct makes it possible to analyze the affective states that characterize
the mass consciousness of modern society. At the same time, specific instruments for studying
the emotional experience of social change, including precarity, are qualitative methods
for collecting, analyzing and interpreting data, which today unites in a sole methodological
approach to the study of social cognition.

Internet activities, especially in adolescents and young people, are related to higher emotions and
the wider social roles, comparing to offline. The aim of the study was to reveal manifestations of personality traits and psychological self-regulation online comparing to offline, as well as their
relationship with user activity, relationship to Internet and subjective well-being. 260 students
filled the Brief Personality Scale, the Balanced Measure of Psychological Needs Scale, and the
Cognitive Emotion Regulation Questionnaire, first with original instruction, and then with instruction
to assess whether these features are more likely to manifest online or offline. Additional
measures included scales of assessment of subjective well-being, user and combined activity,
digital competence, attitude to technology, attitude to the digitalization of education. The suggested
modifications of the Balanced Measure of Psychological Needs Scale, and the Cognitive
Emotion Regulation Questionnaire had sufficient reliability-consistency, which allows use them
in research aimed at comparing psychological manifestations online and offline. On the Internet,
compared to offline, students were less satisfied with relatedness; they are less self-blaming, accepting,
ruminating, focusing on planning, had lower scores on positive reappraisal, perspective
taking, and catastrophizing. Higher levels of autonomy, acceptance, rumination, positive refocusing,
and perspective taking were related to higher offline rather than online manifestations
of these traits. User activity was associated with greater online autonomy, the combined (online
and offline) activity — with online competence, and with greater excitability of the digitalization
of education with online competence and positive reappraisal. Differences in the manifestations
of psychological self-regulation online and offline were not related to subjective well-being. It
can be assumed that students’ assessment of their possibilities of psychological self-regulation
online, comparing to offline, describes their relationship to their Internet activities and self-image
but not general relationship to technologies and digital competence.
