ROOT-CAUSES AND SOLUTIONS OF THE ISLAMIC EXTREMISM KIND OF TERRORISM IN THE SCHOLARLY LOCAL-LITERATURE OF THE MENA REGION

The paper reveals Root-Causes and solutions of the Islamic Extremism kind of Terrorism in the scholarly local-literature of the Middle East and North Africa (the MENA Region). Therefore, Islam as an ideology is addressed in this paper through Islamic books, the Quran, the Hadith (discourse), the Syrah (Mohamed’s life), and the Tafsir (explanation of the Quran, the Hadith and the Syrah). The paper describes the causes of the problem according to former terrorists, some of whom are former ISIS or Al-Qaida members or leaders. It describes the problem according to local-political leaders and according to religious organizations, such as Al-Azhar Observatory and the Union of African Muslim Scholars, from within the MENA region. Based on these, the study concludes that the local scholars have missed the real core reasons of terrorism in the MENA region. Therefore, the reasons that the local scholars have set are only manipulation to world politicians about the real causes of terrorism in the area. This manipulations by the local scholars have been working as a political umbrella to the acts of violence by extremists in the MENA region, and also fueling the problem of terrorism in the area.

Key words: MENA, Islamic, extremism, terrorism, Middle East, North Africa.

CHARACTERISTICS OF DIGITALIZATION OF SCIENCE AND EDUCATION

Introduction: the article analyzes the key characteristics of the digitalization of science and education in the Russian Federation under the existing socio-economic situation. Education and science are fundamental elements of ensuring national security in the context of hybrid warfare and general geopolitical instability. Taking into account the specifics of the current stage of the formational development of society, the key vector for expanding the potential of the domestic scientific and educational space is digital transformation. The active implementation of digital platform solutions contributes to expanding the capabilities of the scientific environment and increasing the availability of educational technologies. In addition, the presence of a digital component significantly speeds up communication processes, which generate additional opportunities for increasing the quality of education, the speed of acquiring knowledge and the effectiveness of interaction in the scientific field. Taking into account the relevance of the identified factors, the relevant government authorities must create the full range of necessary conditions for the further intensification of the digitalization of science and education. The search for reserves for increasing digital activity should be based on a comprehensive retrospective diagnosis, which allows us to identify key trends and cause-and-effect relationships of the current specifics of introducing information technologies into the domestic scientific and educational space.

Goal and objectives: the goal of the work is to study the key characteristics of the digitalization of domestic science and education in the current socio-economic environment. Achieving the goal becomes a consequence of solving the following list of tasks:

– justify the relevance of intensifying the processes of digital transformation of Russian science and education;

– analyze key indicators of retrospective diagnostics of the use of digital platform solutions in the domestic scientific and educational space;

– highlight the main results of digital transformations in science and education in Russia in the focus of the billing period.

Research results: the team of authors carried out a comprehensive retrospective diagnosis of the use of digital technologies in the domestic scientific and educational space. The paper presents the results of an analysis of the dynamics and structure of costs of scientific and educational organizations for the introduction of digital technologies, and also examines the indicators of digitalization of the educational space in the context of preschool education, general education organizations, secondary vocational education and higher education. The results of the generalizations made can become a relevant information base for making relevant management decisions focused on accelerating the processes of digital transformation in conditions of socio-economic instability.

Key words: digitalization, digital transformation, science, education, sanctions, digital technologies.

MODERN INTEGRATION THEORIES IN THE CONTEXT OF INTERNATIONAL RELATIONS TURBULENCE: THE EURASIAN DIMENSION

The article provides a general analysis of the theories of international integration. Based on it, it is concluded that Eurasian integration exists at once at the global, regional (post-Soviet), and national levels. Each dimension represents a separate model of federalist, functional, communication, constructivist, managerial and network characteristics of integration.

The global level is connected with the formation of a Large Eurasian partnership in the direction from Asia to Europe. The regional level determines the future of the post-Soviet space, which has existed for more than thirty years. The national level characterizes the adaptation of states to external economic challenges in the conditions of turbulence of international relations.

The author believes that Eurasian integration is both a process, a state, an ideological construct, communication, a network and a value. To understand it, it is proposed to use the theory of ecosystems, which implies identifying patterns between its meanings, determining the significance of each basis of Eurasian integration for the ecosystem as a whole. This is the main secret of the success of its application.

Key words: Eurasian integration, turbulence, multipolarity, polycentricity, integration theories, ecosystem.

PROSPECTS FOR COOPERATION BETWEEN THE SHANGHAI COOPERATION ORGANIZATION AND THE UNITED NATIONS IN THE FIGHT AGAINST CONTEMPORARY CHALLENGES AND THREATS TO SECURITY

The article is devoted to the prospects of cooperation between the SCO and the UN against contemporary challenges and threats to security. The Shanghai Cooperation Organization is one of the largest and most authoritative associations not only in the Eurasian space, but also in the world. Over its more than 20-year history, the SCO has come a long way and has become an integral element of the modern architecture of international relations. At the present stage, there is an intensive development of international relations of the Shanghai Cooperation Organization; this is largely due to the active role that the SCO plays in solving urgent problems in the field of regional and international security. In this regard, not only the states of the Euro-Asian region are showing increased interest in the organization, but also international organizations that are ready to closely cooperate with the SCO in a number of areas, including in the field of security. Undoubtedly, one of the most important aspects of the SCO's activities is cooperation with the UN and its specialized agencies and bodies. The Shanghai Cooperation Organization supports and complements the efforts of the United Nations to maintain international peace and security. In all likelihood, the SCO and the UN in the future will become the center of joint efforts to counter contemporary challenges and threats to security.

Key words: Shanghai Cooperation Organization, United Nations, challenges, threats, regional and global security.

EXPANDING GEOPOLITICAL PERSPECTIVES: CHINA AND ITS CONTRIBUTION TO THE INFRASTRUCTURAL DEVELOPMENT OF AFRICA

A huge part of the planet's wealth is concentrated on the African continent. About 60% of the world's agricultural lands are located here, including those that are not yet cultivated by anyone. Deposits and reserves of natural resources, both fossil and energy, are very large. Including hydrocarbons, precious and rare earth metals, as well as renewable energy sources. In addition, there is a potentially developing huge domestic market inside Africa. At the same time, the developing Chinese economy is in dire need of sources of resources and sales markets. The combination of these reasons explains China's activity in this region, expressed in steadily increasing interstate and investment cooperation between China and African countries.

Within the framework of the work, the goal was to investigate and analyze existing Chinese infrastructure projects on the African continent at this stage, as well as to consider the potential of Sino-African cooperation and its impact on the implementation of China's geopolitical strategies.

Descriptive, analytical and comparative methods are chosen as the basis. This makes it possible to comprehensively assess not only the existing Chinese infrastructure projects in Africa, but also the impact of their implementation on bilateral Sino-African relations.

As a result of the study, it is concluded that China's interaction with Africa is based on strategic political and economic considerations and fits into the framework of a realistic paradigm of international relations. China's presence on the African continent presents both opportunities and challenges for African states, although African governments need to take the initiative to seize the potential opportunities. China's bilateral relations with African countries are characterized by frequent visits by high-level Chinese officials to African countries. This kind of diplomacy is one of the ways Beijing is trying to increase China's importance to Africa.

Key words: investment, cooperation, China, Africa, infrastructure, interests, geopolitics.

The main purpose of this article is to study the conflict in the Syrian state, in which many external and internal actors are interested, which can be competitors with each other, and at the same time be employees of each other, depending on different goals and ideological moods in the region. In addition, we are trying to analyze the whole picture of the crisis in Syria, which makes it possible to understand the fact that fundamental changes are needed to restore stability in the territories of this state and the Middle East. However, it is especially important to note that in the Middle East, relations between subjects are developing in the presence of trends in international relations, namely, on the one hand, in conditions of a trend of interdependence, and on the other hand, a trend of mutual competition and rivalry. In the article, using descriptive, analytical, comparative, inductive and deductive methods, for the first time a historical and modern overview of the ethno-political essence and position of the Turkomans in the military-political events in the Middle East is presented.

Scope of the results. The results that we obtained when writing this article find their application both in the field of predicting a crisis situation and, in general, the concept of stability in the Middle East, and in analyzing important and topical issues of competition and rivalry, including the relationship between actors in the territories of the Syrian states.

Key words: Turkomans, confession, Russia, Turkey, Islam, geopolitics, ethnopolitics, geostrategy, stability, Middle East.

UNDERGROUND RAILROAD AS AN ORGANIZED WAY TO FIGHT SLAVERY IN THE UNITED STATES BEFORE THE CIVIL WAR

The history of the underground railroad, the first civil rights movement in the United States, has come to us from fragmentary information that is difficult to form a general picture of understanding the large-scale process that can be called the fight against slavery as one of the most inhumane practices of human civilization. The heterogeneity of the components of this movement, which includes representatives of different races, nationalities, estates, professions, financial situation, etc., sometimes makes it difficult to study the phenomenon of the underground railway. Nevertheless, the study of the fight against slavery as a large-scale political process should not bypass or neutralize the humanism of ordinary people who risked their lives, property, reputation and freedom for the sake of black fugitives in need of help.

Key words: slavery, USA, abolitionism, underground railroad, North, South.

PROSPECTS FOR THE ECONOMIC RELATIONS BETWEEN TURKMENISTAN AND KAZAKHSTAN

This paper is devoted to the intensity and development of economic relations between Kazakhstan and Turkmenistan. This topic is relevant in several aspects: firstly, both countries have immense amount of natural resources, as well as colossal transport potential; secondly, the situation in the world after 2022 has changed dramatically, so the interest of global actors (Russia, the USA, China, India) and regional powers (Iran, Turkey) in the Central Asian region as a whole and in those two states in particular has drastically, which inevitably affects cooperation between Kazakhstan and Turkmenistan. The author used methods of geopolitical, system-functional, legal analysis, as well as monitoring of various media. The main conclusions are as follows: 1) the parties managed to build an extensive legal and institutional framework; 2) the transport and energy cooperation, as well as the level of trade, will only increase, since both countries are located at the crossroads of the supply routes of oil, gas and goods between Europe, Russia, Iran, China and other powers.

GEOPOLITICAL OPPOSITION OF RUSSIA, USA AND CHINA IN AFRICA

In connection with the formation of a new system of international relations, the characteristic feature of which will be the absence of a single center of power in the face of the United States of America, regions of the world with great human and resource potentials for the further development of countries claiming leading positions in the international arena are beginning to play an increasingly important role.

The authors analyze the interdependence of political and legal norms in legal practice and come to the conclusion: politics and law are relatively independent, so there is not a state of identification between them, not a position according to which one social phenomenon absorbs another, becomes broader than the last one, and objectively there is only a partial coincidence in their content.

SPECIFICS AND FEATURES OF THE HISTORICAL DEVELOPMENT OF THE POLITICAL REGIME IN RUSSIA

The article deals with issues related to the specifics and features of the historical development of the political regime in Russia. The concept of "political regime" was studied, as well as the main factors that influence its formation. The author of the article emphasizes that in order for the political system and political regime to be an effective tool for managing and shaping consciousness, it is necessary to take into account the interests of each citizen, society as a whole, and adopt certain rules of behavior in it. The period of the baptism of Rus' is marked by the emergence of various political concepts and terms. During the development of the Moscow principality, ideological provisions arose regarding the formation of a strong state. During the reign of Ivan IV the Terrible, the legitimacy of unlimited supreme power was established, close attention was paid not to the issues of government and the formation of a political regime, but to the issues of giving legality to robberies and violence in society. The second half of the 19th century in Russia is characterized by the spread and development of revolutionary democratic ideas and views. Much attention is paid to the popular movement. At the end of the 19th century, a Marxist trend was formed in Russia. The main task of the representatives of this direction was to form a fundamentally new management policy, political regime, views and beliefs. The party and state apparatus during the reign of Stalin intervened in all affairs and in the solution of economic issues. This political regime continued until the arrival of M.S. Gorbachev (1985-1991), who acted as the General Secretary of the Central Committee of the CPSU. This period was characterized by a number of reforms, and the board was mainly based on administrative-command methods of management. The modern political regime can be characterized as a regime in which there are features of democracy. However, it requires the improvement of policy at all stages of its development and implementation. These changes, according to the author, should affect the political system, legal framework, economic instruments of regulation, etc. The article develops recommendations for improving the political regime for modern Russia. Purpose: The purpose of the study is to study the specifics and features of the historical development of the political regime in Russia.

Methods: Basic research methods: analysis, comparison, decision making, logical reasoning and many others.

Results: The specifics and features of the historical development of the political regime in Russia have been studied. Recommendations for improving the political regime for modern Russia have been developed.

Conclusions: After analyzing the historical process of the development of the political regime in Russia, it was possible to find out that it has gone through a long stage of evolution. Each new stage has its own characteristics and distinctive signs of development. The development and formation of the political regime in Russia is influenced by a large number of factors, among which historical, cultural, demographic, ideological, etc. can be distinguished. To improve the political regime of modern Russia, this paper developed recommendations that, in the author's opinion, will allow the formation of a democratic society with its ideology and rules of conduct.

Key words: political regime, power, state, specificity, historical development.

FACTORS AFFECTING THE EURASIAN ENERGY MARKET

The purpose of this study is to review the current crisis in the Eurasian energy market and the prospects for its development. The article uses such methods of scientific research as comparison, considers the points of view of Russian and foreign authors, methods of analysis, synthesis and induction. The factors that influenced the current crisis situation, such as the dominance of the "green agenda" in the political mainstream, the COVID-19 coronavirus pandemic, an attempt to switch from long-term contracts for pipeline gas to spot supplies of liquefied natural gas, are considered. The economic consequences of the application of sanctions are also analyzed. The application of anti-Russian sanctions led to an imbalance in the global energy market, caused a shortage of energy resources and jumps in energy prices. Statistical data are presented that confirm that the sanctions policy and previous political decisions have caused significant problems both for industry and energy, countries imposing sanctions, and for the population of these countries, which in turn caused the strongest crisis in the energy market in recent decades.

Key words: energy market, sanctions, economic pressure, energy, unfriendly countries.

ASSESSMENT OF THE DIGITAL TRANSFORMATION OF THE SOCIO-ECONOMIC SYSTEM OF RUSSIA IN THE CONTEXT OF GEOPOLITICAL TURBULENCE

The article evaluates the digital transformation of the socio-economic system of Russia in the context of geopolitical turbulence. In the current environment, the use of digital technologies is a fundamental factor in ensuring economic growth and achieving the goals of technology leadership. The intensification of digital transformations is a catalyst for innovative activity, and also contributes to the most rational use of resource potential. In today's international realities, Russia faces the difficult task of achieving digital sovereignty, which should become the basis for the stability of macroeconomic development. The large-scale restriction of access of domestic economic entities to digital technologies by unfriendly countries generates the need to stimulate domestic development by expanding the capacity of the research space. The author in the publication substantiates the relevance of the intensification of digital transformation processes in the current conjuncture of the development of the world economy, analyzes the costs of developing the digital economy of the Russian Federation, assesses the degree of achievement of target indicators for digital transformation of the socio-economic system of the country, highlights the basic features of digital transformation processes in Russia at the present stage. Based on the results of the work, a conclusion is made about the need to intensify digital transformation processes to ensure international competitiveness and maintain national sovereignty in the global economy. Based on the diagnostics performed, a number of positive trends in the development of the digital economy of the Russian Federation are noted, among which we can highlight the progressive dynamics of costs for expanding the potential of the digital economy, increasing investment in domestic IT solutions, a growing track of digital financial literacy and digitalization of SMEs, as well as the presence of positive experience in import substitution of digital platform solutions in relevant areas.

FEATURES OF GENDER POLICY IMPLEMENTATION IN MODERN RUSSIA

The article actualizes the issue of the current state of gender equality in Russia as an example of the implementation of gender policy at the legislative level. The purpose of the article is to study the history and current state of gender policy implemented in the Russian Federation. The women's issue has long been at the forefront of gender inequality, which is ambiguously indicated by the analysis of historical aspects of gender policy and mechanisms of its development. The research methods were historical discourse, regulatory analysis. As a result, it was revealed that the domestic state remains committed to the traditionalist version of the formation of solutions aimed at overcoming social gender problems. As a conclusion, the author comes to the conclusion that at the present stage gender equality in Russia is experiencing the need for reform with the participation of state and political institutions based on the principle of gender equality. Of particular importance is the well-coordinated and coordinated interaction between state bodies, on the one hand, and public organizations, on the other, aimed at the stable observance of women's rights in our country and their protection. At the same time, efforts should be made to rid the mass consciousness of gender stereotypes and prejudices.

PROBLEMS OF FORMATION AND USE OF FINANCIAL RESOURCES IN THE REGIONS

The purpose of the work was to identify problems arising in the formation of regional budgets and the use of financial resources for the development of the subjects of the Russian Federation. The research methods are presented by a qualitative comprehensive analysis of the financing of the regions of Russia. The result of the study is to identify such problems as an increase in the volume of inter-budget transfers without taking into account tax arrears in the regions, which should become the main source of their financing and development. Conclusions: Russia needs to strengthen the production and economic base, and increase the number of subjects of the real sector of the economy, which will increase the amount of taxes and fees received by the budget. Also, one of the trends in the development of the national and regional financial system is the formation of large-scale financial and economic ecosystems.

Key words: financial system, regional budget, budget revenues.

THE INTEGRATION OF THE "ONE BELT, ONE ROAD" INITIATIVE AND THE EURASIAN ECONOMIC UNION IS A NEW IMPETUS FOR A SUSTAINABLE ECONOMIC REGION

The article analyzes the global Chinese initiative "One Belt, One Road" (OPOP), aimed at creating the "Silk Road Economic Belt" together with the states of the Eurasian Economic Union (EAEU). The initiative involves closer economic cooperation between the new Central Asian states and China, the implementation of projects for the development of road transport, rail and air communication between Central Asia and China; the development of oil and gas production and other minerals, cooperation in agriculture, free movement of goods, capital and services. The article deals with the problems of linking the "OPOP" with the Eurasian Economic Union, designed to harmonize trade and economic cooperation, stimulate infrastructure investments and humanitarian cooperation. The authors conclude that the pairing of the two integration projects will contribute to the formation of "economic content" in the process of pairing the EAEU.

FORMATION OF THE ORGANIZATION OF TURKIC STATES AND THE MAIN DIRECTIONS OF COOPERATION

The article discusses the policy of the Republic of Turkey towards the Republic of Azerbaijan, the Republic of Kazakhstan, the Kyrgyz Republic, Turkmenistan, and the Republic of Uzbekistan within the framework of the «Summit of Turkic Speaking States», which was initiated by President Turgut Ozal in 1992. The main task is to analyze the period of formation of this platform into an institutional structure called the "Turkic Council", which will be renamed in 2021 as the Organization of Turkic States. Now this platform has already become a full-fledged international structure with its own development strategy until 2040.

Conclusion: Turkic-speaking countries seek to expand and strengthen cooperation among themselves from the outset, but they face various political problems and contradictions. In this regard, to determine how quickly the Organization of Turkic States is ready to transform, it is enough to look at the signed declarations and their implementation. The declarative and recommendatory level of the signed documents remains the main obstacle to further institutionalization and, in general, the implementation of projects and ideas in the Turkic world. This is primarily due to the fact that the goals of the countries participating in the organization are different.

Key words: Turkey, Turkic Council, Organization of Turkic States, the Ankara Declaration, energy sector, transport and logistics sector.

INTEGRATION OF TRANSNATIONAL YOUTH IN THE SOCIAL FIELD OF THE HOST COUNTRY: CASE OF CENTRAL ASIAN STUDENTS STUDYING IN RUSSIAN FEDERATION

The dynamic nature of modern transnational processes defines a new model of socio-political interactions that allows young people to form a virtual socio-political movement in a matter of hours, applying innovative tools of socio-political impact, lobbying their initiatives through new media platforms, and expanding the role of non-institutional actors as new means of political participation. The development and intensification of transnational movements in political, social, and cultural processes have also reduced the time and resources needed to transmit social and political values. Accordingly, young people have received an effective tool for involving their peers in the early stages of integration into the transnational ‘field,’ consolidating cultural and information spaces and facilitating the universalization of behavioral patterns. The study provides an insightful analysis of how digital technologies transform the experience of transnational youth and their sense of belonging, identifies critical elements of the digital diaspora's social infrastructure, and specifies transnational youth's virtual behavioral patterns. The methodological basis of the study includes a secondary analysis of studies on communication and inclusion of Central Asian students studying in Russia with the receiving and sending parties.

Key words: youth, digital diaspora, non-institutional actors, socio-political impact, transnational identity.

THE INFLUENCE OF TAOISM ON MODERN CHINA

In today's world, we still use the principles extant in the philosophical teachings of great philosophers such as Plato, Aristotle, Socrates and other thinkers, but there are also more ancient trends which were formed as far back as ancient China, in particular Taoism. In Chinese, Taoism sounds like dao-jiao and represents the principles of wu-wei, which we understand as non-doing, depending on the natural order of things in nature and the desire for permanence. Taoism was the earliest teaching in China, originating with Lao-zi in the Zhou period. The existence of the creator of the Chinese doctrine is covered in legend, from his birth to the writing of the creation that became the source of Taoism, the Dao De Jing treatise. The basis for the story of the old man is a work by Sima Jian entitled Historical Records, in which Lao-zi himself is represented as a sage born in his old age and working in the archive of the Zhou palace. It is possible that it was the Taoist patriarch who gave advice to Confucius himself and led a life of seclusion. The legacy of Taoism and its creator is still preserved in Chinese society both as the Dao De Jing itself, whose postulates are used by Chinese politicians in international relations, and as the cultural heritage of the surviving temples in which Taoists still exist and, popular not only in China but around the world, the genre of xianxia.

Key words: Taoism, Taoists, Dao De Jing, Lao Zi, dao-jiao, qigong, treatise, Sima Qian.

FEATURES OF PRICING IN THE MARKET OF EDUCATIONAL SERVICES IN MODERN CONDITIONS

The specificity of the market of educational services is determined by the formation of the intellectual potential of society, the competition of organizations that carry out educational activities. Equally important is the question of the interaction of supply and demand, the problem of accessibility of educational services for different groups of the population with a certain level of income. The article considers industry and regional factors that have a direct impact on the cost of educational services, the formation of value, a statistical analysis of Moscow universities is carried out. As a result of the study, the use of a limited set of pricing tools in the educational services market was revealed, which negatively affects the achievement of the goal of the segment itself: the wide satisfaction of consumer needs. Probable mechanisms for reducing the cost of educational services that are most popular among recipients are proposed.

Key words: pricing, national economy, market of educational services, cost of education, competitiveness.
