TECHNOLOGIES FOR DEVELOPING NATIONS’ CIVIL AND POLITICAL COMPETENCE

This article is devoted to technologies for the nations’ civil and political competence formation. The political competence of citizens is the most important foundation of any state. It includes civil culture as an understanding of the norms of behavior in society, attitudes towards institutions of power, laws and legal customs. The foundations of civic culture are laid in the first stages of educating very young citizens. However, this kind of education does not end there; modern practices require the organization of social education at all stages of life, combining citizenship education and education in terms of rapidly changing norms of behavior and law, which is mainly depend on technological progress.

The purpose of this article is an analysis of the developing civil and political competence of citizens practice in the Russian Federation and the recommendations for adjusting existing practices. To do this, the author analyzes foreign experience, existing courses and practices. The research methodology is based on a systems approach that considers the political structure as an organized set of elements, concepts and paradigms determined in the process of socio-historical evolution of national politics and the political system itself.

The author comes to the conclusion that our country has all the tools for developing the civil and political competence of the population, however, there is no comprehensive coverage, and a number of existing practices can be improved. For example, social education in domestic schools should go beyond civics lessons, developing the competence of young citizens through historical examples and the law.

Key words: political culture, civic culture, political competence, social education.

USE OF SCIENCE AND INNOVATION POTENTIAL FOR COMMERCIAL PURPOSES

Everyone knows that whoever controls technology controls the future. The world is changing, and in this fierce struggle, the winners will be those who have the main strategic resource – Intelligence and systems that create knowledge-intensive products. The important global problem, not new to Russia, is economic efficiency.

The transformation of the scientific and technological complex into a driver of economic growth is underway, and not by chance, by the Presidential Decree 2022-2031. Russia has declared itself the 10th anniversary of science and technology.

This article analyzes the solution of issues of technological sovereignty, the creation of a competitive business capable of implementing scientific breakthrough technologies in the alliance of business and science.

ON GEOPOLITICS AND THE CONSTRUCTION OF A GEOGRAPHICAL BORDER

The article attempts to consider the geographical location in socio-political and cultural-identification aspects. It is shown that the geographical boundary does not always have a significant natural and landscape basis, but it can partly be the result of a power-political decision. At the same time, acquiring legitimacy, the introduced concept already builds itself, constructs a border, but now a cultural one.

Key words: geopolitics, the importance of geographical factors in international relations, Danilevsky.

THE POLITICAL POTENTIAL OF THE BRICS IN THE TRANSFORMATION OF THE INTERNATIONAL SECURITY SYSTEM

The article examines the role and capabilities of Russia in solving world problems in order to ensure safe, sustainable conflict-free intercultural interaction. The experience of Russia, taking into account the components of its cultural code, can be useful from the point of view of a conceptual contribution to building a sustainably secure future together.

The theoretical significance of the study is expressed by the increment of conceptual knowledge regarding the foreign policy of national security, which makes it possible to reach a new level of understanding the topic and defining the problem field within which the state foreign policy of modern Russia in its relationship with national security is to be considered. Scientific novelty is determined by the identification of the role of the value approach in the implementation of foreign policy in the national security system.

The authors propose ways to improve the political interaction of the BRICS model, taking into account the transformation of the global system of direct and feedback links. The potential of the BRICS lies not in economic, but primarily in political interaction in order to build a unified, conceptually defined global image of the future.

Key words: world order, United Nations, BRICS, cultural code, conflicts, globalization, frontiers of defense.

PROSPECTS FOR COOPERATION BETWEEN RUSSIA AND TURKEY IN THE ENERGY SECTOR ON THE EXAMPLE OF SINOP NPP CONSTRUCTION

Turkey's energy sector experiences dependency on oil and gas imports; the development of non-renewable energy sources cannot guarantee the necessary energy effect for the Republic of Turkey. The construction of nuclear power plants will enable the country to ensure energy security through a cost-effective and productive energy source. Russia has nearly completed the construction of the Akkuyu Nuclear Power Plant, making it the sole partner capable of implementing the Sinop Nuclear Power Plant project for Turkey at present. The article provides an overview of Turkey's energy resources, establishes Russia's role in Turkey's energy policy, examines the historical background of the Sinop Nuclear Power Plant project, analyzes studies conducted by Turkish scholars on the Sinop Nuclear Power Plant project, identifies the overall risks of project implementation, and develops recommendations for the development of cooperation between Russia and Turkey in nuclear energy.

Key words: Russia-Turkey international relations, nuclear energy, Sinop Nuclear Power Plant, nuclear power plant construction.

THE MIDDLE EAST VECTOR OF RUSSIA'S FOREIGN POLICY

The relevance of the study is determined by Russia's geopolitical and strategic objectives in the Middle East region, which is the most unstable due to its geopolitical position, the presence of countries with conflicting interests and the active participation of non-regional actors, as well as Russia's participation in the conflict in Syria.

The article examines the ways of realizing Russia's national interests in the Middle East region in the context of a changing geopolitical situation and the formation of a new multipolar world.

The importance of the Middle East region has been emphasized in all editions of the Foreign Policy Concept of the Russian Federation. Nevertheless, the implementation of the Russian Middle East foreign policy course is complicated by the political peculiarities of the region, its heterogeneity and the presence of other non-regional players. In this regard, the final part of the article is devoted to the challenges of implementing Russian foreign policy in the Middle East.

Key words: foreign policy, Russia, Middle East, geopolitics, national interests.

DECOMPOSITION OF MODELS OF EURASIAN INTEGRATION IN THE CONTEXT OF THE EMERGING MULTIPOLAR WORLD

Scientific attention to Eurasian integration is dictated by the current geopolitical situation, which is associated with the intensification of integration processes and the creation of new centers of global/regional governance in Eurasia. The accumulation of Eurasian integration as a model, which is an attempt to substantiate its various aspects in a common methodology, declares itself as a self-sufficient problem in international relations.

The article attempts to decompose the model of Eurasian integration based on seven elements. The author comes to the conclusion that they do not always complement each other harmoniously. Much depends on the individual characteristics of the States to which a particular model is applied. At the same time, the search for common patterns that determine the set and order of these elements based on the experience of various Eurasian countries will reveal the common meanings of Eurasian integration.

Key words: Eurasian integration, model, decomposition, multipolar world, Greater Eurasia, dimensions, effects, factors of influence.

STATUS OF STATES AND ITS SIGNIFICANCE IN THE SYSTEM OF INTERNATIONAL RELATIONS

The article is a study of the concept of status in the system of international relations, analyzing its significance and impact on the dynamics of global politics. The main attention is paid to three criteria of status: recognition, conformism and group affiliation. They are considered as key factors determining the position of states in the international system and their ability to influence the formation of global norms.

An important aspect of the study is the consideration of the paradox of status and material capabilities: even with significant economic and military resources, a state cannot always achieve a high status without appropriate recognition from the international community. This highlights the socially constructed nature of status, which in turn serves as a basis for legitimizing states' actions on the world stage. Status thus becomes not only a reflection of current power, but also a strategic resource for shaping the future of international relations.

The article also focuses on the role of great powers in maintaining the balance of power and shaping international standards, demonstrating how they influence international stratification. By analyzing the concept of recognition and its self-reinforcing nature, the authors reveal the mechanisms through which the status of states is strengthened and redistributed in global politics.

Key words: status, international relations system, sovereignty, social processes, group identity.

EUROPEAN RHETORIC ON THE SPREAD OF DEMOCRACY IN ARAB COUNTRIES THROUGH THE IMPLEMENTATION OF NEIGHBORHOOD POLICY

The European Neighbourhood Policy, launched in 2004, envisages «improving relations between the EU countries and their neighbors in the eastern and southern directions, mutual sustainable development and economic prosperity, as well as the export of the European system of values and democracy». This project was originally supposed to play an important role in relations along the Europe-Neighbors axis and strengthen European influence in neighboring regions, but it did not achieve its main goals and underwent changes in 2011 after the events of the Arab Spring and in 2015 after the aggravation of the migration crisis. The article examines the evolution of the European Neighborhood Policy with a focus on «promoting the principles of democracy», as well as analyzes the changes that occurred in it after the events of the Arab Spring. In its first version, the European Neighbourhood Policy assumed that cooperation with democratic countries was the shortest way to solve security problems. In fact, European politicians were willing to cooperate with authoritarian regimes when it was profitable. After the events of the Arab Spring, the EU tried to revive the rhetoric about the importance of democracy, believing that the uprisings in Arab countries were dictated by the desire of the population to end authoritarianism, but this attempt to instill democracy again failed. The article shows that the lack of consistency in actions and double play led the EU to actually abandon the export of democracy and to devalue the principle of democratic priority in cooperation with the governments of Arab countries in the Middle East and North Africa for economic benefit, stability and strengthening European security, which raises the question of the sincerity of European politicians in their rhetoric about spreading democratic values.

Key words: Arab Spring, European Union, European Neighborhood Policy, regional stability, regional security, democratic reforms.

"SOFT POWER" OF EDUCATION AS A STRATEGIC INSTRUMENT OF INFLUENCE IN INTERNATIONAL POLICY

Modern Russia faces an important task: taking into account international experience and national characteristics, to find effective ways to use "soft power" for promising and actively developing areas today, such as international educational policy.

The object of this study is foreign international policy. The subject of the study is the concept of "soft power" and the potential for using education as its strategic tool. The purpose of the study is to analyze the influence of "soft power" on the prospects and processes of education, as well as to determine the strategic possibilities of its use to solve modern problems of Russia in the international educational sphere. To achieve these goals, the study examines education as a strategic tool of "soft power", and also studies some practical aspects of "soft power" that have historically developed in Russia's educational policy.

"Soft power" of education includes such methods as the dissemination of national and cultural values, the export of education and the promotion of the language – all this together should lead to an increase in the resource of "soft power", becoming not only an item of income, but also forming an attractive image of Russia. "Soft power" can be considered only in the long term, while the effectiveness of its strategic impact on the outside world through international educational policy is high, as it leads to long-term and stable relations.

Key words: "soft power", Joseph Nye, education, educational policy, export of education, student mobility, training of national elites, international relations, humanitarian policy.

ON THE INFLUENCE OF CULTURE ON GEOPOLITICS AND POLITICAL GEOGRAPHY

(Afterword to the article "On Geopolitics and the Construction of a Geographical Border" by Galina Sergeevna Solodova)

A review of the article on geopolitics and geography allows us to look at problems that seem to have been posed long ago and have already been largely explained and understood. Geopolitics and geography are inseparable phenomena in theories prone to dogmatism. But not only. The Western global system of the world offers models of fundamental differences in the interpretation of the same image or concept through geopolitical ideas. And so on throughout the content of globalistics and geopolitics. Globalists, supporters of a unipolar world, have one idea. Other ideas are held by those who adhere to the value of a multipolar world order. From the review and in the course of the analysis of the article, we come to the conclusion – we can arrange our ideas, feelings, expectations, moods, preferences along parallel lines of the global and non-global picture of the world order. And this will be a reference point, who is with whom, and who is on whose side.

Key words: geopolitics, political geography, globalists, geographical factors, cultural factors in geopolitics.

SCIENTIFIC AND THEORETICAL CONSTRUCTION OF SOCIO-ECONOMIC ANTHROPOLOGY. THE SOCIO-CULTURAL SECURITY MODEL

The new model of socio-economic policy on an anthropological basis is of fundamental importance. However, world practice shows that only the sociality of the economy does not lead to the goals originally set for it. It is possible to link the characteristics of indicators of material goods directly to the standards of satisfaction of vital human needs, criteria of sociality only on a new scientific and methodological basis. It should be based on the socio-cultural aspects of socio-economic anthropology, since it is not enough to be based only on socio-economic components for a direct connection between the economy and man. It is quite obvious that no theoretical model can function without practical applicability. Therefore, a general model of socio-economic security is proposed as a basic element of state economic policy. Such a policy translates state-centric tendencies into socially-centric ones.

Key words: economics, economic anthropology, social anthropology, cultural anthropology, benefits, needs, indices, sociocentricity, universal well-being, socio-cultural methodology, social norms, social order, socio-cultural security model.

MILITARY-TECHNICAL COOPERATION AS A FACTOR IN ENSURING NATIONAL DEFENSE AND SECURITY OF THE RUSSIAN FEDERATION IN THE CONDITIONS OF MODERN INTERSTATE CONFRONTATION

The article reveals the foreign policy activities of the Russian Federation in the military-technical sphere using the example of cooperation with the Democratic People's Republic of Korea. New contours of the development of relations and the intensification of high-level meetings indicate the desire of both countries to strengthen ties not only in the field of weapons production, but also in the main areas of public life. According to the authors of the article, the signed interstate Treaty on Comprehensive Strategic Partnership will allow Russia and the DPRK to more actively and progressively defend their national interests on the world stage, jointly resist the sanctions pressure of the United States and its allies in the context of modern interstate confrontation.

Key words: sanctions, special military operation, military-technological cooperation, DPRK, comprehensive strategic partnership.

TO THE ISSUE OF GENDER INEQUALITY INFLUENCING WOMEN'S INVOLVEMENT IN POLITICAL LIFE

The article presents the external and internal factors that were barriers to women's participation in political and administrative activities. Also, examples from a history course are studied to examine women's involvement in leadership positions in detail.

The purpose of the study is to examine the forms and modes of women's participation in political and managerial activities and to identify its highest priority areas.

In order to realise the goal of the study, it is necessary to solve the following tasks:

1. Study of external and internal factors of gender discrimination.

2. Study of biological and psychological distinctive features of women that affect their ability to act in the role of a political manager.

3. Consideration of historical aspects of the formation of women's role in the political process.

4. Study of the current political status of women in the Russian Federation.

The research is based on general scientific methods, such as analysis, comparison, as well as on special methods, including historical-legal, sociological, formal-legal.

As a result of the study of the problem, the authors come to the conclusion that gender equality prevails in the political sphere in the main volume of developed and developing countries. At the same time, they note the existence of prejudices and stereotypes about the lack of effectiveness in political and administrative activity of women among male representatives, which from the point of view of biological and psychological signs given in the study have no confirmation.

Key words: political activity, gender inequality, women, politics, legal status.

FROM CONFRONTATION TO COMPROMISE: THE EVOLUTION OF RUSSIAN-CHECHEN RELATIONS IN LIGHT OF THE DIPLOMATIC ACTIVITIES OF BEI-BULAT TAYMIYEV

The article emphasizes that Russian-Chechen relations began to actively develop from the 16th century in a positive direction until the beginning of the 19th century. It is emphasized that at the beginning of the 19th century, Russian-Chechen relations began to acquire a contradictory character. This character is caused by the ambiguous policy of the governors (representing the Russian government), which posed a threat to the existence of the Chechen people. This led to an uprising in Chechnya in 1825-1826. It forced both sides, and, first of all, the Russian administration represented by General Yermolov, to rethink their policies and approaches to governing the region, as he began to actively use diplomacy. It is emphasized that Bey-Bulat Taimiev, during periods of confrontation with the Russian government, made attempts to find a compromise and establish peaceful relations. In addition, when visiting other countries on diplomatic visits (in search of an optimal vector of development for Chechnya), he stated that the forms of government and state structure of Persia and the Ottoman Empire were unacceptable for Chechen society. At the same time, the Chechens already had a long experience of interaction with the Russian Empire, which made it a more predictable and understandable partner. To a large extent, Bey-Bulat Taimiev's judgments were also influenced by the change in the approach in the policy of Russian military leaders in the Caucasus, especially with the appointment of General Evstafy Fedorovich Engelhardt. He differed from many of his predecessors in his more flexible and humane approach to governance. It is concluded that Bey-Bulat Taimiev played a key role in restraining the Chechen people from mass uprisings and joining radical movements, especially in the late 1820s – early 1830s. And with Taimiev's death, the key mediator between the Russian administration and Chechen society was lost.

Key words: Bey-Bulat Taimiev, Russian-Chechen relations, diplomacy, confrontation, geopolitics, diplomatic missions.

Introduction: the work examines the features of human capital management at the regional and corporate levels in the current macroeconomic environment and geopolitical risks, as well as taking into account the goals set within the framework of the import substitution policy. The team of authors recognizes the strategic importance of building an effective human capital management model to minimize risks in the field of national security, as well as in the focus of maintaining corporate competitiveness. Achieving the goals set within the framework of the import substitution policy becomes possible provided that the potential of human capital is expanded. In this regard, to build effective human capital management, it is necessary to make efforts both at the state and corporate levels. On a state scale, the solution to this problem should be carried out in the wake of national projects that ensure the growth of demographic potential, increasing the expression of relevant competencies in the light of increasing entrepreneurial innovative activity. At the corporate level, comprehensive management of human capital should be carried out within the framework of the implementation of a policy of socially responsible behavior, the basis of which is investments associated with the creation of high-quality working conditions, lifelong learning, and the preservation of physical and moral health. Successfully solving problems related to the development of human capital will make it possible to change the trajectory of development of the country's socio-economic space, including creating the prerequisites for expanding technological sovereignty and increasing entrepreneurial activity.

Purpose and objectives: the purpose of the work is to study the features of human capital management at the state and corporate levels. Taking into account the formulated goal, the following tasks were set in the work:

– clarify the structural essence of human capital from the position of managerial influence;

– analyze individual indicators of human capital management at the regional level;

– group the basic tools for human capital management at the corporate level.

Research results: the team of authors clarified the theoretical and methodological aspects of human capital management, taking into account national and corporate specifics, and also carried out a comparative dynamic diagnosis of the effectiveness of human capital management in the Kursk region and the Republic of Tatarstan.

Key words: human capital, management, human resource management, Kursk region, Republic of Tatarstan.

PHILOSOPHY OF MICROELEMENT MANAGEMENT OF SOCIO-ECONOMIC PROCESSES IN THE FORMATION OF AN INTEGRATED SOCIAL ENVIRONMENT

Annotation. The philosophy of microelement management of social processes is that the functioning of social processes can be reduced to a relatively small number of standard elementary managerial functions, the cyclical nature of repetition and the time frame of which have already been studied and systematized through fundamental research. Microelement management of social processes can become one of the subtle tools for managing the social environment, which is aimed at a discrete and tightly controlled change in the behavior and interaction of individual individuals or groups of people in society over a fairly long period of time. This approach is based on the assumption that a change in the micro-level of an individual's behavior and relations between individuals or social groups leads to an expected change in the conditions of the course of social processes at the micro-level, forming the prerequisites for sustainable changes in the course of socio-economic processes at the macro-level. It is important to note that the effective use of a single, for example, labor, or a set of resources requires an integrated approach and consideration of many social, economic and political factors that form social reactions, social interactions, and the country's economy. Significant advantages and relevance of microelement management of social processes can be newly opened opportunities for its use for systematic and progressive management of socio-economic processes at the micro level, which are still at the stage of designing these processes. Microelement management of social processes is based on the fact that the most complex and diverse management actions are combinations of simple, or primary, elements of the management system and organically merge with the processes of managing the economy of the region and the country as a whole.

The goals and objectives of the study. The purpose of the work is to realize the practical importance of microelement management of socio-economic processes in the formation of an integrated social environment in Russia. Within the framework of the goal, the following tasks are set in the work:

– to clarify the philosophy of microelement management of socio-economic processes;

– to substantiate the relevance of microelement management of socio-economic processes in the formation of an integrated social environment in Russia;

– to highlight the key results of the practical importance of microelement management of socio-economic processes in the formation of an integrated social environment in Russia.

The results of the study. The results of large-scale practical application of microelement management of socio-economic processes will make it possible to create conditions for harmonious coexistence and development of all members of society, contributing to the sustainable, integrally defined development of the social environment, social economy, socio-economic space, where each member of society has the opportunity to fully realize their potential and contribute to the common good of the country.

Key words: microelement management, social environment, social processes, labor resources, social economics, social organization of labor.

AGRARIAN AND URBAN REVOLUTIONS AS SOURCES OF GLOBAL SOCIO-CULTURAL PROCESSES

The theme of the agrarian and urban revolutions is of fundamental importance, as they have become sources of new trends in human life. At what point does humanity count down? The question is not simple, since the development of mankind cannot be reduced only to geographical or historical factors. The scale of the efforts invested by our first ancestors in the development of the earth and the development of necessary life-supporting practices remains underestimated. The foundations of change were laid by the ancient ancestors of man, they also revealed many secrets of nature, the secrets of land development, the creation of cities, which became the sources of various forms of culture and civilization. Therefore, the prehistoric period of mankind should be considered a preparatory stage of the transition to civilization, which could not have happened without agrarian and urban revolutions. In this regard, these factors are interpreted as indicators of the totality of all accumulated practices of ancient societies, multidirectional spheres of human activity, and the formation of its cultural codes, the preparation of the foundations of the first states and the transition to a new level of development. The agrarian and urban revolutions, which have fulfilled the function of socialization, require a new understanding. In the work, the urban revolution is revealed as a process of gradual transformation of settlement areas into an environment of multifunctional significance, the creation of facilities, infrastructures, services, social contacts of interpersonal and intergroup relations. The topic is of interest to political scientists, cultural, social, economic anthropologists, and general specialists.

Key words: agrarian revolution, urban revolution, agriculture, Beringia, cultural codes, human factor, ancient society, economic anthropology, cultural and political anthropology.

EUROPEAN RHETORIC ON THE SPREAD OF DEMOCRACY IN ARAB COUNTRIES THROUGH THE IMPLEMENTATION OF NEIGHBORHOOD POLICY

The European Neighbourhood Policy, launched in 2004, envisages «improving relations between the EU countries and their neighbors in the eastern and southern directions, mutual sustainable development and economic prosperity, as well as the export of the European system of values and democracy». This project was originally supposed to play an important role in relations along the Europe-Neighbors axis and strengthen European influence in neighboring regions, but it did not achieve its main goals and underwent changes in 2011 after the events of the Arab Spring and in 2015 after the aggravation of the migration crisis. The article examines the evolution of the European Neighborhood Policy with a focus on «promoting the principles of democracy», as well as analyzes the changes that occurred in it after the events of the Arab Spring. In its first version, the European Neighbourhood Policy assumed that cooperation with democratic countries was the shortest way to solve security problems. In fact, European politicians were willing to cooperate with authoritarian regimes when it was profitable. After the events of the Arab Spring, the EU tried to revive the rhetoric about the importance of democracy, believing that the uprisings in Arab countries were dictated by the desire of the population to end authoritarianism, but this attempt to instill democracy again failed. The article shows that the lack of consistency in actions and double play led the EU to actually abandon the export of democracy and to devalue the principle of democratic priority in cooperation with the governments of Arab countries in the Middle East and North Africa for economic benefit, stability and strengthening European security, which raises the question of the sincerity of European politicians in their rhetoric about spreading democratic values.

Key words: Arab Spring, European Union, European Neighborhood Policy, regional stability, regional security, democratic reforms.

INFORMATION SECURITY AS A FACTOR OF STRATEGIC SOVEREIGNTY IN THE SPACE OF GREATER EURASIA

Today, against the background of increasing geopolitical tension due to the change of the world order, which is no longer unipolar, the probability of threats to international security and peace is growing. The transformation of traditional relations and rules of the game has seriously aggravated the existing contradictions in the global agenda, increased the accumulated imbalances in the world. The article shows that one of the key anthropogenic threats to human civilization and the formation of sustainable foundations of the new world order is the growing power of information weapons both in the economic sphere to commit various types of fraud and crimes using information and communication technologies (ICT), and in the ideological and political spheres. The author emphasizes that the lack of unity of views of the world community on the issues of ensuring international information security (IIS) predetermines the strategic nature of close cooperation between allied countries to ensure, among other things, their ideological leadership in shaping the foundations of the world order and the new information space.

ACTIVATION OF NEW TRADE PROJECTS OF THE EUROPEAN UNION AND G7 COUNTRIES IN CENTRAL ASIA IN THE CONDITIONS OF A RAPIDLY CHANGING WORLD ORDER

Introduction: the article examines the current foreign policy situation in Central Asia, a key region located at the epicenter of new trade routes between the EU countries and the PRC. In this article, the team of authors offers a compact analysis of the general provisions of the above projects, and also outlines a general analysis of the preconditions for changes in the policies of the EU and the Russian Federation in the region under study. It is noted that a significant part of this region is made up of former Soviet republics (Kazakhstan, Turkmenistan, Kyrgyzstan, Uzbekistan and Tajikistan), which are distinguished by both the complexity of their geographical locations and the diversity of ethnic and political landscapes in this region of the planet that is critically important for the global economy and trade. The authors also note the strategic importance of the region under study for almost all major global players.

Purpose of the study: analysis of the general provisions of the above projects, as well as a general analysis of the preconditions for changes in the policies of the EU and the Russian Federation in the region under study.

The results of the study: the team of authors agrees with the opinion of the majority of Russian researchers that the Republic of Kazakhstan and Central Asia in the next decade will not be able to achieve the subjectivity they so desire. This is due both to the above global trends and processes, and to intraregional contradictions, which force the states of the region to seek opportunities to solve the problems they face from stronger external players. An important role is played by the situation in Afghanistan and the uncertainty of the implementation of EU and G7 projects related to it.

IMPLEMENTATION OF MEASURES AIMED AT PARTICIPATION IN THE «ONE BELT, ONE ROAD» PROJECT OF THE CENTRAL ASIAN STATES

The five Central Asian states are important countries that are located in the territory of the “One Belt, One Road” project, and it largely depends on them whether this project can successfully develop and advance in the Eurasian region. Currently, US and Western sanctions against Russia continue to intensify, and the Central Asian states may be affected by secondary sanctions. The five Central Asian states occupy a key position; they have a neutral foreign policy strategy, allowing them to make choices and explore their own development path. In May of 2023 year, the first China-Central Asia leaders' summit was held in China, where ambitious plans for the development of relations between China and Central Asia were discussed. Taking this opportunity, the Central Asian states will actively participate in cooperation within the framework of linking the “One Belt, One Road” project and the Eurasian Economic Union, which will not only accelerate the progress of regional economic integration in Central Asia, but also further realize cooperation with other countries along the Belt and Road.

ABOUT THE GLOBAL SPREAD OF CNN'S DIGITAL AUTHORITARIANISM

Today, many surveillance systems in China are fragmented and imperfect. However, the Party is working to improve them. China's initial efforts to control the Internet twenty years ago were futile. However, the Chinese Communist Party did what many thought was impossible and today exercises an incredible degree of control over the information environment within the country through censorship and state propaganda.

China has been at the forefront of digital authoritarianism at home and abroad, which can be seen as a threat to the global freedoms of other countries. The United States, along with other democracies, is actively trying to counter this illiberal use of technology by developing an alternative vision for the use of digital technology that preserves individual privacy and freedom.

Our paper examined the mechanisms for exercising population control in the PRC, the spread of Chinese-style policies to other states, and the US response to the popularization of Chinese-style digital authoritarianism.

Key words: PRC, USA, authoritarianism, technology, artificial intelligence, surveillance, control, censorship.

RUSSIAN-SPANISH CULTURAL TIES (HISTORICAL AND POLITICAL SCIENCE ASPECT)

Russian-Spanish relations have emerged in various fields: diplomacy, economics, social, political and cultural spheres. The development of Russian-Spanish cultural ties has a long history. Their emergence is connected with the desire to establish allied relations against a common threat – the Ottoman Empire. The first cultural contacts arose in the 80s of the XV century. However, the actual cultural ties between the countries date back to the beginning of the first third of the XVI century, when diplomatic contacts were established. Before the XVII century. Relations between Spain and Russia were sporadic, but it was at this time that strong cultural ties between the two countries began to form. The basis of fruitful cultural cooperation between Russia and Spain is: the uniqueness and originality of the cultural traditions of both countries, a certain similarity of the national characters of our peoples.

CLIMATE POLICY IN A MULTIPOLAR WORLD

The article considers the problem of the effectiveness of the global climate policy implemented by various countries. The author notes that despite the large enough financing of decarbonization projects by different countries, no significant results have been achieved to reduce the rate of global temperature growth. At the same time, it is emphasized that the real counteraction to climate change primarily requires solving the problem of cross-country management of the planet's water resources, which necessitates the construction of a multipolar climate policy. The author concludes that it should be about the priority of the «water climate transition» over the «green» one. The author also comes to the conclusion about the priority of the strategy of «small things» over the strategy of global abstract promises.

Key words: climate policy, multipolar world, water resources, hydropolitics.

MODERN TERRORISM: SPECIFICS, DYNAMICS, TRENDS

The article analyzes the processes and phenomena of recent times that characterize modern terrorism. It is noted that, despite a slight reduction in the number of terrorist attacks, the lethality of terrorism is increasing. There is a movement of the epicenter of terrorist activity from Western Asia and Afghanistan to the Sahel region. Particular attention is paid to the situation in Central Asia, which has an impact on the security of the Russian Federation. The work also examines the trend towards the intensification of terrorism. It manifests itself in the fact that the number of terrorist attacks is decreasing; they are carried out by fewer groups, but with a larger number of victims.

HISTORICAL-COMPARATIVE ANALYSIS OF THE ACTIVITIES OF THE ‘RUSSIAN LIBERATION ARMY’ AND ITS MODERN TERRORIST FOLLOWERS: THE ‘RUSSIAN VOLUNTEER CORPS’ AND THE ‘FREEDOM OF RUSSIA’ LEGION

In every historically significant military conflict among the population of the opposing sides there were individuals who did not share the policy of their own state. Adherents of opposition ideas united in separate movements from the state troops, thus demonstrating their own disagreement with the goals of the country's Armed Forces.

The purpose of the study is to examine the historical regularity of the existence of opposition paramilitary formations, which are a specific reaction of radicalized associations to the acute political situation in the state.

In order to achieve the stated goal, the following tasks were set before the study:

1. To study the nature, goals and historical fate of the paramilitary formation of the times of the Great Patriotic War – the Russian Liberation Army of General Vlasov.

2. To study the biography and consider the ideas of the main leaders of modern illegal associations.

3. To study the goals, ideas and structure of the opposition radical formations – Legion “Free Russia” and “Russian Volunteer Corps”.

4. To consider the consequences of sabotage activities of paramilitary formations in the course of military operations on the Russian-Ukrainian borders and directly on the territory of Russia.

5. To determine the common beginnings and reasons for the emergence of opposition paramilitary formations.

In the course of the study used general scientific methods such as comparison, analysis synthesis and others. Such special methods as document analysis, biographical, statistical, sociological and other methods were also used.

The study revealed a specific historical parallel between the opposition military associations of the present and the times of the Great Patriotic War. On the examples of the Russian Liberation Army of General Vlasov (1942-1944) and two similar in character existing at the moment associations of the Russian Volunteer Corps and the Legion “Free Russia” the negative social phenomenon is seen – a fierce reaction of society to the existing political situation of the state, which is followed by unification in opposition formations of paramilitary type.

Key words: opposition associations, special military operation, sabotage, the Great Patriotic War.

TO THE QUESTION OF THE CAUSES OF THE RISE OF NEO-NAZISM IN UKRAINE: THE ROLE OF LEADERS AND ELITES

The presented research is devoted to the reasons for the rise of neo-Nazism in Ukraine. The paper gives an interpretation of possible reasons causing the rise in popularity of neo-Nazi ideas in Ukraine.

The purpose of the study is to examine the reasons for the introduction of neo-Nazi ideas into the public consciousness of Ukrainian citizens, as well as to determine the conditions that contribute to the strengthening of these ideas in the form of near-state ideology.

In order to achieve the stated goal, the following tasks were set before the study:

1) To study the essence, goals and primary sources of neo-Nazi ideas;

2) To conduct a historical analysis of the activities of the organization of Ukrainian nationalists;

3) To determine the signs of the spread of neo-Nazi ideas in modern Ukraine;

4) To consider the reflection of neo-Nazi ideas on the examples of educational programs of Ukrainian educational institutions;

5) To determine the common beginnings and reasons for the wide spread of neo-Nazism in Ukraine at the present stage.

In the course of the study were used general scientific methods such as comparison, analysis synthesis and others. Special methods – document analysis, biographical, statistical, sociological and other methods were also used.

The study revealed a specific historical parallel between the organization of Ukrainian nationalists in 1929 and the modern movement of neo-Nazis in Ukraine. Real precedents of destructive clashes between Ukrainian neo-Nazis and representatives of certain nations have been considered. The influence of the Government, state mass media, the Ministry of Education and Science of Ukraine on the strengthening of neo-Nazi ideas in the minds of Ukrainian citizens is studied. The reasons and conditions for the spread of neo-Nazi ideas were identified: the pronounced resentment of Ukrainians towards Russians, the glorification of collaborators of the Great Patriotic War, the weakness of the Ukrainian regime and its lack of political will to combat the spread of these ideas in society.

Key words: neo-Nazism, Ukraine, resentiment.

POLICY OF TSARISM IN CHECHNYA IN THE MIDDLE OF THE XIX CENTURY

The scientific article analyzes the specifics of the struggle of the highlanders of the North-Eastern Caucasus against the establishment of tsarist power in the region. A significant part of the inhabitants of Chechnya, including influential representatives of the Chechen people, at that time supported the pro-Russian authorities in every possible way. It is emphasized that the residents of Chechnya, the supporters of Imam Shamil among the people, among other things, were significantly influenced by economic reasons (i.e. the implementation of trade turnover), active stimulation of the voluntary transition of Chechens to the side of the Russian Empire. As a result, hundreds of Chechen families voluntarily began to move to the lands assigned to them, swearing allegiance to the Russian throne. There was also the Kunta Haji doctrine, which called for reconciliation with Russia. As a result, by the end of 1857, Chechnya was fully integrated into the Russian Empire.

Key words: Russia, Chechnya, Imam Shamil, war, pro-Russian mood, integration of the Chechen people, oath of allegiance to the Russian throne.

SOCIALLY SIGNIFICANT INTERNET SPACE AS THE NEXT STAGE OF DIGITALIZATION OF INTERACTION BETWEEN THE STATE AND SOCIETY

Modern technologically advanced states take into account the Internet as an integral element of their information policy. The interaction of the state and society with the significant spread of the Internet in the state inevitably goes through a stage of digitalization, when citizens of such a state become available to interact with authorities and other state institutions through Internet information resources in the form of submitting applications, appeals, petitions, demands, as well as in the form of obtaining necessary information and services from public authorities the authorities. Interaction through such resources is equivalent to official communication between political and administrative actors and stakeholders. The totality of such resources becomes an integral element of the exercise of state power and an instrument for meeting public demands, thereby becoming socially significant and critical in the context of the implementation of political tradition in the state. For the correct functioning of a socially significant Internet space, certain conditions and compliance with certain requirements on the part of both society and the state are necessary, including the availability of a regulatory legal framework, user identification, a high level of security and the direct participation of the state itself in the formation of such a space. A socially significant Internet space as a separate segment of the Internet may have its own internal rules of use and limited access, for example, only for persons with citizenship. Such advanced mechanisms of digital interaction between the state and society make it possible to multiply the efficiency of government agencies and services, reduce associated costs and increase the level of social satisfaction.

INVESTMENT ATTRACTIVENESS OF THE CITY IN CONDITIONS OF INSTABILITY

Introduction: the article presents theoretical and practical aspects of assessing the investment attractiveness of a city in conditions of macroeconomic turbulence and geopolitical challenges. The investment attractiveness of a territory is the most important object of management by local governments, since a high-quality solution to this problem allows generating a wide range of relevant socio-economic effects. Investment attractiveness is a complex of factors that objectively exist and are formed by the active position of local governments, contributing to the systemic growth of investment activity across the socio-economic space of the territory. The presence of a favorable investment climate acts as a factor in the progressive development of the socio-economic system of the municipality due to the expansion of production potential, the emergence of opportunities for technological transformations, increased entrepreneurial activity, scaling of commercial infrastructure, increased social investment and increased demand in the labor market. A comprehensive synthesis of the results of analytical diagnostics forms an objective opinion among potential investors regarding the advisability of investing in the socio-economic space of the territory. In this regard, representatives of municipal management must make significant efforts for the systematic growth of key indicators of a quantitative and qualitative nature, reflecting the level of investment attractiveness of the territory. Thus, investment attractiveness is an objective result of the management activities of municipal authorities, which ensures the attraction of corporate and private investments to form a progressive track of socio-economic development.

Goal and objectives: the purpose of the work is to clarify the relevance and conduct a practical assessment of the investment attractiveness of the city under the existing socio-economic conditions. Achieving the set goal occurs as a result of solving the following tasks:

– clarify the theoretical significance of investment attractiveness in the city management system;

– carry out diagnostics of fundamental indicators of socio-economic development of the city of Kursk;

– summarize the results of assessing the development of the urban socio-economic space in the vector of creating a favorable investment climate.

Research results: the team of authors carried out a comprehensive diagnosis of the socio-economic development of the city of Kursk, which makes it possible to form an objective and reliable information base for assessing the investment attractiveness of the territory.

Key words: investment attractiveness, investment climate, investment activity, city of Kursk, city management.

THE CIVILIZATIONAL FACTOR OF RUSSIA'S DEVELOPMENT IS MICRO-PRECISION MANAGEMENT OF THE SOCIAL ECONOMY

Introduction. Exploring the micro-precision management of the social economy as a civilizational factor in the development of Russia, the philosophy, concept and strategy of micro-precision management of the social economy, the policy of the new social economy, based on the preservation and development of traditional Russian spiritual and moral values based on the principles of patriotism, human priority, social justice and equality of opportunity, including through the digital transformation of the economy and social sphere, implemented through national projects of the Russian Federation. Micro-current management of the social economy is based on the idea of discreteness of micro-current changes in the social environment through controlled micro-impulse influence on the behavior of individuals, society as a whole, and, as a result, on the country's economy as a whole. The following can be mentioned as important advantages of micro-precision management of the social economy: high accuracy, high efficiency, procedural flexibility. Since the regulatory-discrete functions of the social economy have a multitasking horizon of socio-economic events, there is a need to use directional-restrictive principles of social economy management, among which it is proposed to include: relevance, predictability, verifiability of hypotheses, manageability. Considering the development of social economics as a science, explaining the basic problems and patterns of relations between an individual or a group of people with modern society, through the theoretical foundations of micro-precision management of the social economy, it becomes possible to apply the latter, through the projection of the conditions of socio-economic development of modern society, as a developing component of economic theory.

Purpose and objectives. The main purpose of the study of micro-precision management of the social economy as a civilizational factor in the development of Russia was to establish a link between various economic theories and social economics and to propose an effective tool for its implementation at the social level complementing the social economy. At the same time, basic tasks have developed that allow using micro-precision management of the social economy: a) to form the civilizational horizon of Russia; b) progressively, discretely, evolutionarily and purposefully influence the formation of public opinion, managing social processes, the development of the social environment; c) form, develop and instrumentally accompany migration processes, labor resources and labor potential of society within the framework of demographic policy; d) effectively manage the social environment and the economy of regions and the country as a whole.

Research result. As a result of the study of social economy as a subject of general economic theory, the importance of supplementing the conceptual scheme of the formation and development of the social economy with such a tool as micro-precise management of the social economy was determined, the practical application of which can allow not only the development of economic theory, but also the development of a complex of critically small, but synergistically measures that are effective in influencing various aspects of the social economy and social environment in order to achieve specific socio-economic results or change social phenomena in a strategic perspective.

Key words: social economy, social controlling, socio-economic policy, micro-precision management of the social economy, digitalization of the social economy, modeling of the social environment.

INVESTMENT CLIMATE OF THE TERRITORY AND ITS ASSESSMENT

Introduction: the work clarifies certain theoretical and methodological aspects of assessing the investment climate, and also diagnoses the severity of its components using the example of the city of Kazan. Given the current geopolitical situation, the formation of a favorable investment climate is of strategic importance from the point of view of ensuring economic growth and expanding the social potential of the territory. Achieving a nationwide positive investment climate is a synergistic result of increasing the level of favorable investment space for each territory separately. In this regard, regional and municipal authorities should pay significant attention to the problems of managing the investment climate in order to increase investment activity in the controlled socio-economic space. Solving this problem is largely complicated by sanctions pressure from unfriendly countries, which degrades the potential of foreign investment. Thus, the search for internal reserves for intensifying investment processes comes to the fore by creating a comfortable administrative and managerial environment in relation to existing and potential subjects of investment activity.

Goal and objectives: the goal of the work is to assess the investment climate of a specific territory based on the selected methodological tools. The objectives of the article include the following provisions:

– justify the relevance of proactive management of the investment climate in conditions of geopolitical turbulence;

– to clarify the methodological tools for diagnosing the investment climate of the territory, taking into account the identification of focal management points;

– analyze the investment climate of the city of Kazan.

Research results: the team of authors presented the results of assessing the investment climate of the city of Kazan based on the established current methodology. The results of the analytical diagnostics performed allow us to conclude that there is a favorable investment climate in the managerial, administrative and socio-economic spaces of the city of Kazan.

ESG DEVELOPMENT OR "GREEN CAMO": RESPONSIBLE BUSINESS DEVELOPMENT TRENDS IN RUSSIA AND THE WORLD IN NEW CONDITIONS

The global economy is undergoing a global transition to business standards based on ESG principles – a new stage in the development of the concept of social responsibility. At the same time, investments in the ESG sphere create some restrictions for businesses, which in the new conditions are trying to reduce costs and only create an image of a responsible business, resorting to the so-called greenwashing. In the context of increasing risks for the economy, the risks of nominal and decorative adherence to the ESG agenda are also aggravated, which, in turn, creates long-term problems for the entire society.

MILITARY-POLITICAL AND ECONOMIC COOPERATION BETWEEN RUSSIA AND CHINA WITH THE CENTRAL ASIAN STATES. REGIONAL COOPERATION OR CONFRONTATION?

At present day, that Russia is forced to pursue a special military operation to demilitarize and denazify Ukraine, actively supported by the NATO forces, and its eastern part, in particular, the forces of the collective West are not asleep on the fields of the Central Asian region, striving with all their might to destabilize the former Soviet republics of Central Asia, which broke up into five independent states. In the very heart of the region, rebellious Afghanistan languishes, in which power was seized by the «Taliban» in August 2021, according to some reports, cooperating with ISIS units. Against the background of the shaky foreign policy situation around Russia in the region of Central Asia, the activities of the Ministry of Internal Affairs and the Ministry of Defense of China, as well as numerous corporations, are gaining momentum, highly interested in entering new geopolitical frontiers, giving China the opportunity to increase influence on the Eurasian continent, which, however, contradicts Russia's foreign policy interests. Will Russia and China, which are actively extrapolating their power to the Central Asian region, be able to cooperate in parallel in several directions, or will the strategic partnership develop into a hidden rivalry?

NATO'S MILITARY DOMINANCE STRATEGY BASED ON THE DEVELOPMENT OF ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE CAPABILITIES

The article considers the Euro-Atlantic Alliance's strategy in the field of artificial intelligence. It is shown that this technology is becoming fundamental and will further influence the entire range of key areas of the North Atlantic Alliance, so the current NATO Strategy in the field of artificial intelligence includes the areas of data analysis, imagery and cyber defense. The experience of the NATO bloc and key documents are analyzed, emphasizing that Alliance governments have expressed their commitment to the principles of responsible use as one of the most important components of the NATO Strategy for Artificial Intelligence and that AI applications must comply with six basic principles. The Strategy notes that a shared commitment to these principles can provide practical benefits to NATO, as the document provides a common framework for the design and development of artificial intelligence applications by NATO Member States, while ensuring operational coherence. Thus, the Strategy notes that NATO can foster the necessary linkages between technological and physical security, responsible use, and interoperability.

The author concludes that at the present stage, NATO member states and partners of the North Atlantic Alliance, as well as the largest American technology corporations put the issues of benefits here and now in the geopolitical arena higher than potential threats to international information security in the relatively near future, developing and providing modern high-tech solutions based on artificial intelligence.

CHINA AS A COMPETITOR TO THE USA FOR LEADERSHIP IN THE MODERN SYSTEM OF INTERNATIONAL RELATIONS

The article examines the current process of deglobalization as a phenomenon of rebalancing political forces on the world stage, in particular between the United States and China. The purpose of the study is to assess the likelihood of China's emergence as a new leader in the system of international relations against the backdrop of its competition with the United States of America. The research method is a comparative review and critical analysis of current political events in the modern system of international relations, the global agenda with crises and regional conflicts, against the backdrop of worsening bilateral relations between Beijing and Washington. As a result of global challenges, such as regional conflicts and the consequences of the global lockdown due to COVID-19, the modern architecture of international relations is being rebuilt. The author examines the process of deglobalization as a factor influencing the emergence of a bipolar world order modeled on the USA and the USSR in the second half of the twentieth century; in the new realities, China appears in the place of the Soviet Union, as a power capable of competing almost on equal terms for global influence in global political processes. The author concludes that the conditions of deglobalization provide states with tools for promoting national interests and instruments of influence in the formation of a world order, and the likelihood of the formation of two overlapping international orders, each of which is relatively open internally, but relatively closed from the other, is high in the current turbulent environment of international relations.

FOOD SECURITY IN THE WORLD: FAO'S ROLE IN ADDRESSING GLOBAL CHALLENGES

In the last decades, the global food problem has faced challenges related to a sharp increase in prices for agricultural crops. This has led to the expansion of the food crisis in areas that previously did not show signs of food shortages, especially in regions with low income levels. These changes in prices have triggered economic and social tensions, which are exacerbated by inflation and poverty. There is a threat of a shortage of food production for the population and animals.

Based on this, the problem of food security acquires global significance, requiring priority attention and concentration of efforts from the global community. Specialized UN agencies, such as FAO, play an important role in addressing these issues.

The Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) was created to combat the problem of hunger and agricultural development. The organization's main objectives include improving the quality of nutrition and life, increasing agricultural production, and saving humanity from hunger and malnutrition. FAO is the UN's main center for collecting and analyzing agricultural and nutrition statistics, and it cooperates with member states to improve the quality and coverage of data.

Key words: food security, international cooperation, Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO).

ORGANIZATIONAL AND LEGAL FOUNDATIONS OF DUAL EDUCATIONAL PROGRAMS OF RUSSIA AND CHINA

The scope of this article is related to understanding the problem of implementing joint educational programs with the participation of higher educational institutions of Russia and China. The purpose of the study is to understand the organizational and legal foundations of dual educational programs in Russia and China. The objectives of this study include consideration of issues related to the structural and organizational features of dual educational programs in Russia and China; determination of the strategic legal basis for the participation of the two countries in these programs.

The methodological basis for writing this article was a combined approach that allows us to consider the organizational and legal foundations of dual educational programs in Russia and China using general scientific research methods and special methods.

The result of this study was the substantiation that Russia and China are currently active participants in bilateral educational programs. As a result, China has achieved impressive success in this area, and Russia finds itself in the position of a country that has not fully formed its vision and its strategic priorities in this area of educational activity. In this regard, it is now necessary to determine a strategy for Russia’s participation in this area of educational activity.

Key words: education, dual programs, regulatory documents, organization, national interest, competition, intellectual capital, strategy.

STRATEGIC COMMUNICATION IN CONTEMPORARY EU AND NATO POLICY

It is shown that strategic communications technologies, as an element of modern EU and NATO policy, are designed to ensure the systematic formation of a positive image of NATO and the European Union for the international community and discredit their ideological opponents. It is noted that in recent years strategic communications have become an increasingly important and operational area of activity for the North Atlantic Alliance and the EU. At the same time, the EU borrowed from NATO's experience and revised the organizational structure of its "strategic communications". Using the example of strategic communication between NATO and the EU, the key conceptual features of this approach and the tools used within it are presented. It is shown that the model of strategic communications of NATO and, accordingly, the EU is based on the coordinated use of information and communication technologies to support foreign policy and active participation of NATO and the EU in the information space, using social media and various communication platforms, to conduct information operations and assess public opinion and media monitoring.

Key words: strategic communications, NATO, EU, geopolitical confrontation, Ukraine, NATO Doctrine, USA, East StratCom Task Force.

COOPERATION IN THE FIELD OF CYBER SECURITY AND COMBATING CYBER TERRORISM WITHIN THE FRAMEWORK OF THE SCO

This article examines the cooperation of member states within the Shanghai Cooperation Organisation (SCO) in protecting cybersecurity and combating cyberterrorism. The significance of the study lies in analysing the changes in the SCO's cybersecurity policy and exploring the organisation's special role in the fight against terrorism. In the context of globalisation and digitalisation, the topic of cyberspace has become one of the key topics for the SCO. The study concludes that the SCO's effectiveness in this area is hampered by factors such as the lack of intelligence sharing mechanisms, language barriers and technological development. Deepening intelligence and legal co-operation among member states is an inevitable measure to enhance the effectiveness of the SCO in preserving cyber security and combating cyber terrorism.

Key words: Shanghai Cooperation Organisation, cyber security, cyber terrorism, cybercrime, cyberspace.

RUSSIAN NATIONAL-STATE IDENTITY IN THE CONTEXT OF INFORMATION AND POLITICAL CHALLENGES OF THE EARLY 2020th

The article is dedicated to the key information and political challenges addressed to the Russian national-state identity in the early 2020th. These challenges include: deepening of value-semantic intergenerational divisions in modern Russian society, attempts at comprehensive dehumanization of Russia actively undertaken in the digital space, increasing fragmentation and negation of the image of the future in the mass consciousness. These challenges carry a serious destructive potential and were intensified in 2022-2024 through targeted external information and psychological attacks on Russian society and the Russian statehood.

It is noted that the key vector of countering these challenges today is the modernization of the state identity policy in the Russian Federation, including the formulation of and the implementation of the policy of constructing a national-state image of the future.

Key words: national-state identity, information and political challenges, digital transformation, simulated reality, total dehumanization, image of the future.

THE ROLE OF PUBLIC OPINION IN THE ELECTION CAMPAIGN. INFORMATION-MANIPULATIVE METHODS OF MASS MEDIA TO INFLUENCE PUBLIC OPINION

During the electoral race, citizens act not only as the main recipient of content, but also as a tool for achieving the goals set: from rallying the masses around one candidate to destabilizing the entire political system. Consequently, the competent usage of manipulative technologies by the mass media helps to control public opinion and operate him to achieve different goals.

This article is devoted to the role of public opinion in the election campaign, as well as information and manipulative methods of the media to influence mass consciousness.

Goal: to identify the role of public opinion in the electoral process with an emphasis on the manipulative component.

Method or methodology of the work: the article applies theoretical research methods: analysis and classification of information-manipulative techniques of mass media; practical methods: consideration of the role of public opinion based on the example of the Georgian case of 2003; historical methodology for understanding the development of the term "public opinion".

Results: public opinion performs a dual function in the electoral process, acting simultaneously as an informant and as a recipient for the headquarters of political technologists. The mass media "construct" public opinion, using different methods of manipulation.

Scope of application of the results: it is advisable to apply the results obtained in journalistic practice, as well as in the work of the election headquarters of political technologists.

Key words: public opinion, electoral race, information-manipulative methods, mass media, electoral process.

It is noted that the introduction of modern digital technologies into all spheres of public life and the formation on their basis of a strong and independent information policy contributes to the successful integration of the state into a single information space.

Information at the present stage of development of society is the most powerful strategic resource. An important criterion for the development of any state is the degree of its involvement in the global information space.

The primary goal of state information policy is to establish a dialogue between society and the state, as well as harmonize mutual interests.

Key words: information policy, information society, information, informatization, digitalization.

A BRIEF ANALYSIS OF THE DEVELOPMENT OF CHINA'S "BELT AND ROAD" INITIATIVE FROM A GLOBAL HISTORICAL PERSPECTIVE AND ITS IMPACT ON OTHER COUNTRIES

China's "One Belt, One Road" construction has become a hot issue of widespread concern at home and abroad. Proposing this strategy is an important step for China as a world power to pursue comprehensive diplomacy in the 21st century. It is naturally developed in response to the development of the situation. This is not only an economic exchange, but also a country exchange, access to the global level, unification and stimulation of the coordinated development of neighboring countries. This is a critical step in building a community with a shared future. Combined with an overall historical perspective, the three phases of the Belt and Road Initiative, using military trade as an example, deeply analyze the feasibility of the initiative from a trade facilitation perspective.

Proposing the Belt and Road strategic concept meets the needs of countries along the route, opens a new window of opportunity for countries along the route, and provides a new platform for international cooperation and international trade. “One Belt, One Road” is an acronym for the Silk Road Economic Belt and the 21st Century Maritime Silk Road (the English acronym is OBAOR (One Belt and One Road)).

The Belt and Road Initiative covers Asia as well as parts of Europe and Africa. The Silk Road Economic Belt includes Russia, Mongolia, Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan, Turkmenistan, Tajikistan, Kyrgyzstan, etc. The Maritime Silk Road Economic Belt includes Egypt, Kenya, Pakistan, India, Sri Lanka, Bangladesh, Myanmar, Thailand, Cambodia and Vietnam.

As part of the Belt and Road strategy, China has established the Asian Infrastructure Investment Bank and the Silk Road Fund to support projects in infrastructure, resource development, industrial cooperation and financial cooperation in Belt and Road countries. This strategy will use infrastructure construction as a breakthrough point to expand the scope of cooperation between the two sides, provide huge business opportunities along the Belt and Road, attract international exchanges and cooperation in various aspects such as transportation, industry, finance and international trade, strengthening trade, currency and cultural ties. The Belt and Road Initiative is having a positive impact on population and employment decline in China.

Key words: "One Belt, One Road", military trade, opportunities, global historical perspective, trade promotion.

THE OVERTON WINDOW OF THE ARMENIAN-AZERBAIJANI KNOT OF CONTRADICTIONS

In this article, the authors turned to highlighting an urgent topic – the node of the political contradictions of the Transcaucasian countries, on the resolution of which the security and ensuring of Russia's national interests in a region strategically important for the country depend. The geopolitical interests of not only Russia, but also Armenia and Azerbaijan were intertwined in this knot, when Artsakh retreated to the latter after many years of bloody events. Both Turkey and Iran, as well as a number of countries of the collective West, are interested in resolving political contradictions. In particular, France, which has actively intervened and is trying to solve its political and military-economic interests by supplying military equipment and lethal weapons to Armenia. The statement by Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan on his readiness to withdraw from the Collective Security Treaty Organization (CSTO) if "this structure does not fulfill its obligations and does not recognize its area of responsibility", made at a press conference on March 12, 2024, does not contribute to resolving the conflict. The relations between Russia and Armenia directly affected the near border and all cross-border relations of the Transcaucasian countries. The problem of resolving these contradictions, taking into account all stakeholders, is not a matter of one day and requires the political leadership of Russia to pursue a multi-vector policy to take into account the interests of all regional players.

Key words: Transcaucasian countries, the Armenian-Azerbaijani conflict, the Nagorno-Karabakh Republic, the Zangezur corridor, the Lachin corridor, France.

RESEARCH PROBLEMS OF CHINA’S PERIPHERY DIPLOMACY IN EURASIAN POLITICAL SPACE

Today it has become clear that two powerful trends have emerged in the world: polycentrism in politics and globalization in economics. The old world order has been replaced by a new one, which is still being formed and covers all areas of activity in society. All countries of the world, each in their own way, are experiencing these changes and adapting to them. Thus, Chinese diplomacy, having successfully adapted to the ongoing changes in the world, is making the necessary adjustments to its foreign policy doctrine. At the same time, it remains consistent in implementing the main national idea – transforming the country into a leading world power, whose interests are taken into account by other key players. The author examines a complex of problems relating to modern Chinese diplomacy in the formation of peripheral diplomacy and dominance in the Eurasian political space. These considerations can serve as a starting point for comparing China's policies towards its traditional and non-traditional peripheries.

Key words: PRC, Eurasia, Eurasian political space, China’s periphery diplomacy.

PUBLIC OPINION AND DECISION MAKING: HOW THE PERCEPTION OF CHINA BY AMERICAN SOCIETY AFFECTS CHANGES IN FOREIGN POLICY

The relationship between the USA and China has long played a key role on the international political stage. Despite the diverse contacts and interactions between the two countries, the perception of China by the American public is constantly changing. This study aims to delve deeply into how the American public's attitude towards China affects changes in the US foreign policy.

Over the past decades, with the rise of China, the opinion of Americans has shifted from perceiving it as a distant country with an opposing ideology to recognizing it as an economic power, which subsequently turned into a potential strategic competitor. From economic cooperation and competition to issues of human rights, freedom, and security – the diverse perception of China provides a complex context for foreign policy.

Analyzing data from several public opinion polls, we found that cooperation and competition in the economic and technological spheres often become key factors influencing public opinion. Americans hold firm views on trade and technology exchange with China, reflecting the positions of both countries on the international economic map. However, the direct connection to the economy is not always positive. For example, attention to human rights in China, press freedom, and other political issues also shapes the American public's perception of the relationship between the USA and China.

Moreover, security issues, especially in the South China Sea and Taiwan, are also important to the American public. The political and military dynamics in these regions directly affect the strategic interests and national security of the USA.

It is worth noting that while public opinion influences the shaping of foreign policy, this influence is not always decisive. Decision-making takes into account geopolitics, economic interests, long-term diplomatic strategy, and domestic political issues, which may differ from public opinion. Understanding these reasons and the balance between them is critically important for a full understanding of the relationship between public opinion and policy.

Overall, this study has shown that the perception of China by the American public indeed affects the direction and decision-making in US foreign policy. However, this influence is not unequivocal. In forming a foreign policy strategy towards China, American leaders need to consider a multitude of factors to ensure the comprehensiveness and effectiveness of their strategy.

Key words: Strategic Interests, National Security, Foreign Policy, Discussion regarding China, Chinese-American Relations.

DIPLOMATIC RELATIONS BETWEEN CHINA AND JAPAN: PROBLEMS AND PROSPECTS

In 2023, the restoration of Japan-China diplomatic relations will be 51 years old. Throughout the history of relations between the two states, instability has been their main characteristic. Periods of fruitful dialogue have been followed by cooling of relations and mutual grievances. Many factors have contributed to the formation of this characteristic feature, starting with the impact of the last Japanese-Chinese war and ending with the strengthening of mutual economic dependence. It is important to realise that the nature of diplomatic relations between the two states not only affects them but also the region as a whole, as China has been the largest economy in the Asia-Pacific region for the past 13 years, a position previously held by Japan. The shift in the centre of economic power has changed the political landscape of the region, and both states have made adjustments in the way they conduct dialogue with each other.

SINO-AMERICAN RELATIONS (UNDER PRESIDENT BARACK OBAMA)

Relations between the People's Republic of China and the United States of America have always been in the spotlight of the world community. Special attention to this problem has always been focused in the USA. This issue has been the focus of attention of US President Barack Obama and the US Congress. In 2010, Barack Obama unveiled to the American public a new "US National Security Strategy", in which much attention was paid to relations with the People's Republic of China. The document stated that the new policy would be aimed at maintaining positive relations with China, eliminating distrust between the countries, encouraging the elimination of tensions between China and Taiwan, as well as promoting joint priorities such as countering climate change and non-proliferation of nuclear weapons. The document also indicates that the United States plans to monitor China's military modernization program. The strategy emphasized that the United States would not agree with China on human rights issues and those areas where views differ. However, this should not prevent cooperation on issues of mutual interest. The position of the US Congress was the opposite. Congressmen actively criticized China's foreign and domestic policies. The goal of Barack Obama's policy was to attract China to the American-centric system of the world order. In words, the president called on China to partner, but in reality forced it to play by American rules.

Key words: United States of America, People's Republic of China, Sino-American relations, U.S. President, U.S. Congress, Barack Obama.

INTERNATIONAL POLICY OF THE RUSSIAN FEDERATION IN THE CONTEXT OF SOLVING THE PROBLEMS OF TERRORISM

Nowadays the ability of each state to counter the global threats effectively is of great importance. Terrorism is one of such threats. The purpose of this paper is to consider the principles of Russia’s fight against terrorism in accordance with the state's concepts of national security and foreign policy. The article used such research methods as system analysis, problem method, logical and epistemological method. The results of the study showed: in order to succeed in the fight against international terrorism, it is necessary to involve all countries in solving this problem, rather than applying a policy of "double standards". The author of the article concludes that although the fight against terrorism requires international cooperation, Russia's voice is not always heard, therefore Russia takes measures to combat terrorism, relying on its own concept of national security and pursuing national interests.

Key words: globalization, international terrorism, national security, foreign policy, Russia, the West.

ORGANIZATIONAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE MECHANISM OF ELECTRONIC DECLARATION IN CUSTOMS AFFAIRS

Introduction: the article discusses organizational aspects and analyzes key indicators of the use of electronic declaration in the customs administration mechanism. The use of digital technologies is an important tool for optimizing the functioning of customs authorities in the current environment of foreign economic activity. A high-quality solution to the problems facing customs authorities is impossible without the active introduction of digital technologies and the creation of electronic document flow between participants in foreign trade activities. Currently, issues of digitalization of economic and administrative processes are of key importance for increasing the competitiveness of the functioning of a system or entity in the context of the existence of an innovative management paradigm. The use of electronic declaration helps to solve a wide range of problems related primarily to the optimization of interaction between customs authorities and foreign trade entities. Increasing the effectiveness of the noted communication processes lies in increasing their efficiency from the perspective of foreign economic activity subjects, as well as increasing the efficiency of control procedures from the point of view of the customs authorities themselves. In addition, one cannot fail to note the significant reduction in the corruption component in the activities of customs authorities due to the introduction of electronic declaration mechanisms.

Goal and objectives: the goal of the work is to clarify and group the key aspects of the organizational and administrative mechanism of electronic declaration. The objectives of the work are revealed in the following provisions:

– focus the benefits of integrating digital technologies into the customs administration system;

– consider the basic principles and communication algorithms for the functioning of electronic declaration centers;

– highlight criteria for assessing the effectiveness of the digital transformation of administrative procedures in the wake of customs affairs.

Results of the study: the team of authors clarified the theoretical and methodological foundations of the organizational and administrative mechanism of electronic declaration, which reveal the fundamental advantages of adapting digital technologies in the vector of customs affairs, the fundamental tools of communication algorithms of electronic declaration centers, as well as the target targets of the digital transformation of the customs space. The results of the article can become a relevant information foundation for further scientific research in the vector of increasing the efficiency of the customs mechanism.

Key words: electronic declaration, customs administration, customs payments, foreign economic activity, digital communications.

PAYMENT OF CUSTOMS DUTIESIN SPECIAL ECONOMIC ZONES

Introduction: the work examines the key essential characteristics of customs administration in special economic zones, and also diagnoses the most relevant indicators reflecting their use within the customs space of the Russian Federation. The use of special economic zones (SEZ) is aimed primarily at developing the investment potential of the state and attracting foreign direct investment into its economy. SEZs act as «growth points” of the national economic system, within the framework of which the most relevant mechanisms for activating business processes at the regional level are implemented. One of the ways to create a favorable regime within the SEZ, which is the basis of their economic existence, is the implementation of mechanisms of tax and customs benefits. Preferential customs regulations used in the process of operation of the SEZ serve as an important argument for the use of foreign investment and expansion of the production potential of the territory. The noted circumstances determine the increased level of relevance of the study of the current practice of paying customs duties in the SEZ and the development of directions for improving this mechanism.

Purpose and objectives: the purpose of the work is to reveal the administrative features and conduct practical assessments of the payment of customs duties in the SEZ. The article solves the following problems:

– to focus the essential features of the customs administration mechanism in the customs space of the SEZ;

– carry out diagnostics of key indicators of the functioning of the SEZ within the customs space of the Russian Federation;

– consider international experience in building an effective customs administration system within the SEZ.

Research results: the team of authors summarized the key features of building a customs administration mechanism in the SEZ space, and also highlighted their importance for expanding the potential of the national investment climate. The work reflects the results of analytical diagnostics of key indicators of the functioning of the SEZ in the customs space of the Russian Federation. The conclusions formulated in the article are a relevant information base for constructing a comprehensive picture of the functioning of the SEZ, which can be applied in further scientific theoretical research, as well as in the practical activities of relevant government bodies.

Key words: customs duties, special economic zones, world economy, economic security, customs administration.

RESEARCH ON THE IMPACT OF THE TRANSITION TO STATE MANAGEMENT OF THE ECONOMY AT ENTERPRISES IN RUSSIA AND CHINA

The state management of economic entities, acting as a priority direction of state economic policy, reflects the provisions of the interventionist concept, which is criticized by supporters of liberal economic policy and ideas.

The object of the study is the national economy; the subject of the study is interventionism as a form of state intervention in the economy, which determines the effectiveness of its state. The purpose of the study is to substantiate on a scientific basis the need for state management of economic entities of strategic importance for the national economy.

NEW VARIABLES OF GRAVITY MODEL FOR ASSESSING EXPORT POTENTIAL OF STATE AGRICULTURAL AND AGRI-FOOD SECTOR

Agricultural and food products play an important role in international trade. The increase in exports of food and other agricultural products opens up opportunities for producers to develop high-tech production. Numerous national and foreign economic studies analyze the development of international trade in agricultural, but most of them focus on analyzing the results of export competition using specific measures or groups of measures, but do not focus on the study of export potential and its methodology. Our goal is to identify proposals for optimizing approaches by presenting a range of indicators previously unused by academic circles and based on practical insights into the export of agricultural products. The author of the article presents new (practical oriented) variables of gravity model for assessing export potential of state agricultural and agri-food sectors, which should contribute to increasing the export potential and international competitiveness of the countries.

Key words: agriculture, productivity, gravity model, export potential, agroexport, supply chains, agri-food sector, state agriculture.

APPLICATION OF MEASURES TO ENSURE PAYMENT OF CUSTOMS PAYMENTS

Introduction: the article reveals the essence, meaning and key characteristics of instruments for ensuring the payment of customs duties. Ensuring the payment of customs duties and taxes is a customs administration measure aimed at achieving the maximum completeness of replenishing the country's budget revenues through customs payments. The main target for the use of forms of security is the creation of guaranteed mechanisms for a participant in foreign economic activity, facilitating the fullest possible payment of the required amount of customs duties and taxes. The emergence of the procedure for applying interim measures is due to existing risks in the field of non-payment of customs duties and taxes by participants in foreign economic activity. In addition, the use of this customs administration tool has certain positive effects for the participants in foreign economic activity themselves. The most relevant of the general set of positive effects is the fact that security measures significantly speed up the procedures for releasing goods and significantly reduce the financial costs of a logistics nature caused by their excess storage.

Purpose and objectives: the purpose of the work is to consider the essence and significance of the application of measures to ensure the payment of customs duties in the context of the administrative mechanisms of customs authorities. In accordance with the goal, the following tasks are solved:

– focus the role of security measures in the mechanism of customs control and administration;

– highlight the key characteristics and essential features of interim measures in the context of the customs mechanism;

– consider the fundamental features of the use of basic instruments for ensuring the payment of customs duties.

Research results: in the work of the team of authors, a clear focus is built on the importance of interim measures for the intensification and reliability of the functioning of the customs mechanism, taking into account the interests of all its stakeholders. The analysis of key support tools allows us to concentrate their advantages and disadvantages to build competent tactics for managing customs procedures. The results of the study can become an up-to-date information base for participants in foreign economic activity when choosing a target channel for customs administration.

Key words: interim measures, customs payments, customs administration, fiscal function, customs control.

ANALYSIS AND CONSEQUENCES OF INTELLECTUAL MIGRATION FOR THE COUNTRY’S ECONOMY DURING THE CRISIS

Introduction: the article analyzes intellectual emigration in Russia during the crisis, and also outlines its consequences for the domestic economy. The most important element of the national wealth of any country is its human capital, which forms the foundation not only for expanding the general progressive sociocultural background, but also serves as the basis for the implementation of a technology leadership strategy. In the conditions of conducting a hybrid war, the intellectual core of human capital becomes a key object of external pressure, which is focused on expanding the channel of the emigration flow and creating a sustainable «brain drain» track. Intellectual emigration generates a huge number of problems for the country's socio-economic system, which are focused primarily on reducing the capacity of the cultural background and narrowing the possibilities for developing breakthrough technologies in all relevant areas. The current situation of aggressive behavior of unfriendly countries challenges government authorities to actively counter externally initiated trends in intellectual emigration by stabilizing the internal socio-economic space, comprehensively combating the distortion of history and «fake news», as well as by creating a productive environment for the intellectual development of the Russian Federation. human capital. Solving the identified problems is extremely important for ensuring the required level of national security and building a sovereign vector of technological development while minimizing the catching-up component.

Purpose and objectives: the purpose of the work is to analyze intellectual emigration and consider its consequences for the domestic economy in conditions of instability. Achieving the set goal occurs as a result of solving the following list of tasks:

– focus on the main factors and triggers of intellectual emigration in the current geopolitical situation;

– conduct a retrospective analysis of migration processes;

– highlight the key consequences of intellectual emigration for the domestic socio-economic system.

Research results: the team of authors formulated the current factors for expanding the flow of intellectual emigration in the current geopolitical situation, and also identified a number of triggers for the intensification of migration activity. The study presents the results of a retrospective diagnosis of migration processes, analyzes the dynamics of intellectual emigration in times of crisis, and groups the main consequences of these processes for the domestic socio-economic system. The conclusions and generalizations formulated in the work can serve as a relevant element of the information base for the relevant authorities when correcting the mechanisms for managing the migration process.

Key words: intellectual capital, intellectual emigration, human capital, migration process, national economy, sanctions, Russia, hybrid war, «brain drain».

Government policy will be determined primarily by the goals and interests of the parties that make up the government. In this article, the specifics of a modern coalition government in Germany, consisting of three completely different parties in terms of their views, have been studied. Accordingly, every decision of this government must in one way or another reflect the position of one party, but must also be harmonized with the positions of the other two. Results. The study focuses on the decisions that reflect the policies of the Green Party and how these decisions have affected the perception of the party within Germany as well as outside Germany.

SINO-SOUTH KOREAN RELATIONS IN THE 2000S: CONFLICTS AND COOPERATION

In the 2000s, China and the Republic of Korea developed a complex and multifaceted relationship characterized by a combination of conflict and cooperation, which influenced not only bilateral relations between the two states, but also regional dynamics as a whole. However, despite all the differences, ties between the two countries continued to grow, and China became the Republic of Korea's largest trading partner. This economic interdependence has played a significant role in easing tensions and promoting cooperation. Both countries have also worked together on various regional and global issues such as climate change, North Korea's nuclear program, and tried to maintain prosperity and peace in the Asia-Pacific region. Both states recognized the importance of cooperation in solving these common problems and promoting mutual interests. In addition, cultural and people-to-people exchanges between China and the Republic of Korea flourished during the 2000s, further deepening their relations. The popularity of Korean entertainment and pop culture in China, commonly referred to as the "Korean Wave" or "Hallyu", has created a bridge between the two countries and fostered a stronger sense of cultural understanding and intimacy. This cultural soft power has played a role in enhancing mutual perception and creating the basis for cooperation in other areas. This article conducts a study and analysis of bilateral relations between the Republic of Korea and the People's Republic of China from 2000 to 2010, and also examines the main joint projects, conflicts, causes of disagreements and consequences for both states, which contributes to a better understanding of not only the nature of China-South Korean relations, but also the entire history of bilateral relations between states in general.

LEGAL ASPECTS OF ECONOMIC SANCTIONS OR RESTRICTIONS ON EXPORTS OF "LIVE ANIMALS": ROMANIAN CASE

Romania is a leader in exporting "Live animals". The country is part of the group of global leaders in exporting live sheep, goats, as well as young cattle. The main part of the live animals’ products, almost entirely, is exported to the countries of the Arab Gulf and Maghreb. But in terms of import volume "Meat and edible organs" products are the most significant food group that has a negative contribution to Romania's agri-food trade balance over the past 30-year.

Existing problem in the EU regarding the restrictions on the export of live animals. The problem arose as a result of an investigation presented by Animals International, an Australian non-governmental organization with branches all over the world. The investigation, conducted in 2017, concerned the manner in which transportation as well as slaughter of live animals exported from the EU, especially Romania, to the Middle East and North Africa countries.

The European Commission has imposed a series of economic restrictions on live meat exporters from Romania, Spain, France and Portugal. In this series, a legitimate question arises as to the overall validity of the term "economic sanctions" against states or their economic entities.

The basic question that the author of the article focused attention on the legal nature of "economic sanctions", "retaliation" or "economic restrictions". The author of the article brings for consideration the statement about the lack of validity of the application of the term "economic sanctions" both in the theoretical doctrinal circulation and in the framework of foreign trade interstate activity.

The use of measures of direct pressure on states, which are systematically in economic doctrine are labeled as "international sanctions", in the context of public international law, are not sanctions.

Key words: UN, European Commission, Romania, Spain, France, Portugal, Middle East, North Africa, Maghreb, Animals International, agriculture, retaliation, economic sanctions, economic restrictions, foreign trade, live animals export.

RECEP TAYYIP ERDOGAN: A CHARISMATIC LEADER BETWEEN POPULISM AND POLITICAL PRAGMATISM

The article reveals the typology of the Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan as a charismatic leader, the key milestones of his political biography and possible prospects for the development of his further actions. His young years and activities in the youth wing of the Islamist National Salvation Party had a great influence on the formation of the politician. By the beginning of the 2000s. R.T. Erdogan managed to overcome the influence of the principles of his teacher N. Erbakan and form a party that absorbed Islamic conservative and democratic liberal values in its political program. The first decade of the reign of R.T. Erdogan was marked by success in domestic, economic and foreign policy. However, the "Arab spring" inspired the Turkish president to intensify his foreign policy, positioning himself as a common Muslim leader. Neo-Ottomanist populism gained momentum. References in the idea of the revival of Turkish greatness allowed R.T. Erdogan to repeatedly win elections, crush the 2016 coup, and get a vote of confidence to amend the Turkish Constitution, concentrating most of the power in the hands of the president by 2017. The peak of the political power of the Turkish president can be considered 2020, when Azerbaijan, with the help of Turkey, won the Second Karabakh War. However, the Covid-19 epidemic and R.T. Erdogan led to a drop in living standards in Turkey and his own popularity in the country. The 2023 elections were the most difficult in the political biography of the Turkish leader, which, according to the authors, will lead to serious adjustments in his domestic and foreign policies, which, however, does not pose serious threats to the development of Russian-Turkish relations, especially in the energy sector.

Key words: Erdogan, charisma, leadership, populism, Islam, elections, Russian-turkish relations.

THE CONFLICTUALITY TRANSFORMATION AND NON-STATE ACTORS IN THE MODERN WORLD

The changes that are taking place in the modern socio-political space affect the fundamental foundations of statehood. One of the main factors in this is globalization, which, among other risks, increases conflict. Conflicts are becoming more complicated, becoming multifactorial and multicomponent. The purpose of this article is to analyze the transformational practices of modern conflicts, as well as the role of non-state actors in the conflictogenicity of the modern political process. There is a general intensification of confrontations based on value and cultural principles, which are based on the conflict of identities. At the same time, several trends are being realized: the increase in the number of conflicts, their localization and the transformation of their content. The main vector has been changed, the role of non-state actors is being strengthened, and conflict is being transformed. In the conflict dimension, these processes can be described within the category of «asymmetry of political conflicts», when the conflict is characterized by a significant imbalance of the political and legal statuses and forces of the parties. The main goal of the state is to prevent the weakening of state sovereignty and the collapse of statehood, during which the system of official legal institutions is replaced by alternative structures.

Key words: political conflict, non-state conflict, political actors, non-state actors, transformation, sovereignty, conflictogenicity, international relations.

SINO-VIETNAMESE VASSAL RELATIONS AS A FORM OF POLITICAL GOVERNANCE

The relationship between China and neighboring states had the character of a suzerain and a vassal. These relations are characterized by feudal times and are called "fan Guangxi zones" in Chinese. Relations between China and Vietnam have an ancient history. The basis of China's relations with neighboring countries is characterized by the word "barbarians". This concept included the peoples adjacent to China, and the Chinese authorities treated them as vassals. According to the territorial location, two terms can be distinguished – the nearest "fen" and the farthest "shu", and the system itself with vassal territories is called "fan guangxi zones". The translation from Chinese means "relations with close and distant vassals." These relations included a certain ceremonial for the ambassadors of the sub-territorial territories and the presentation of gifts and gifts. This model of relations had a long historical path and originated during the reign of the Qin and Han dynasties. There are two types of "fan guanxi zones". The first, characterized by feudal and dynastic relations and manifested between the central government of China and local minorities, was exclusively internal in nature. The second one refers to territories outside the territory of China and was dynastic in nature. The Fan Guangxi zone system was an important factor for the vassal territory and was imposed by China. During the operation of the Fan Guanxi zones, foreign monarchs were vassal heads of their territories and sought to become legitimate and at the same time fully recognized the Chinese emperor as a suzerain.

Key words: China, Vietnam, fan guangxi zone, vassal, vassal relations, suzerain, emperor, ceremony, gifts.
