FEATURES OF ETHNO-DEMOGRAPHIC DEVELOPMENT VILLAGES OF TATARSTAN (1990-2010)
The article is devoted to the analysis of the reasons for the deterioration of the demographic situation in the village of Tatarstan at the present stage of development. In the article, the author reveals the specifics of the natural movement of the population of Tatarstan, explores the problems associated with the disappearance of rural settlements, and also formulates assumptions about the low effectiveness of certain russian programs to combat depopulation of rural areas, based on the optimization of the socio-cultural infrastructure of villages. The author also touches upon the problem of the intensive disappearance of russian villages. He conducted a comprehensive study of the disappearance of rural localities in Tatarstan, studied the statistics of the problem. A comparative analysis of the results of the demographic russian population census of the Republic of Tatarstan was used to reveal the topic.
At the same time, it was important for the author to identify the main ethno-cultural features peculiar to the rural population as part of the study of depopulation of territories. In connection with this fact, the expert circles of Tatarstan and Russia are actively discussing the problem of modern villages and the preservation of ethnic markers of its population.
According to the author, one of the main socio-demographic problems that modern Russia may potentially face is the intensive disappearance of rural localities. This process is based on the «vicious» idea of contrasting the city and the village. In order to neutralize this process, the modern russian leadership places at the center of its national policy the idea of agglomeration of villages around urban settlements and optimization of their social and cultural infrastructures.
Key words: Tatarstan, village, demography, optimization, agglomeration, disappeared localities, social depression in rural areas.

LEGAL POLICY AND LEGAL POLITICAL SCIENCE IN RUSSIA: HISTORICAL AND METHODOLOGICAL STATUS
The author substantiates the theory of legal policy of the state, traces the stages of formation, views of scientists and expresses his opinion about its development in the modern world. The author analyzes the principles of legal policy development as a systemic legal phenomenon, in which the components of scientific information are closely, dialectically intertwined with the components of public practice, called legal policy in its General meaning; the novelty of the work consists in the fuchinian analysis with its emphasis on the cardinal discontinuity in the evolution of knowledge (about legal policy) and its strong subordination to the manifestation of interest in it from the authorities. It is concluded that the theoretical basis of the domestic legal strategy is based on both actual historical circumstances relevant to the legal policy of Russia and the opinions expressed about them, on stable regimes and institutions of state government that recreate information about the criminal, on logical combinations of one-time sequences-in the form of mediated "criminal-legal structures", which are characterized by" own " legal policy, suitable for the political elite, society.
Key words: theory, legal policy, legal political science, legal relations, political science dimension of the state's legal policy.

ON THE ISSUE OF ARMENIANS IN DAGESTAN IN THE SECOND HALF OF THE XIX – BEGINNING OF XX CENTURIES
Ethnically, Dagestan is the most difficult region in Russia. In addition to indigenous peoples, there are nationalities living here whose main area of settlement is outside the North Caucasus. Individual groups moved to this area in different historical periods. These include the Armenians.

Active economic activity at the specified time, as well as their missionary work in an earlier period of history, is reflected in toponymy. Representatives of the Armenian nation lived in all corners of Dagestan and were widely known among the Dagestani peoples.
The article reflects the migration policy of Russia in the North-Eastern Caucasus, which was determined not only by trade and economic interests, but also by political and strategic objectives.
Key words: economy, trade, Armenians, resettlement policy, North Caucasus region, bourgeoisie.

PUBLIC SAFETY AND ORDER IN THE MOSCOW PROVINCE IN 1880-1905
Ensuring public security is an integral and one of the most important functions of the state. On the one hand, it has the task of preventing and suppressing actions that violate the peace and "deanery", and on the other hand, promoting the further development of internal order and security. Concern for security and order-this is how the police function is understood in society. Ensuring public security is particularly relevant at times of social transformation. The era of Alexander II was marked by an increase in public discontent in various sections of society, including the intelligentsia, part of the army, and the nobility. All this required strengthening the law enforcement activities of the state. One of the most significant regions was the Moscow province. The article provides a comprehensive assessment of public security and order in the Moscow province by the Moscow security Department in the period 1880-1905.
Key words: public security, Moscow province, security Department, security guard, Moscow security Department.

KHAKASS TRADITIONS OF ASSISTANCE IN HOUSEHOLD ACTIVITIES
Purpose: Social assistance as a system of protecting people from risks in society originated at the stage of family relations, developed and existed as a special social institution created to support and protect those who temporarily or permanently need it. The Khakass ethnic group has developed certain mechanisms of assistance and mutual assistance within the framework of the community-tribal structure to ensure the favorable functioning of their relatives. Agriculture was a determining factor in ensuring the well-being of the Khakas. Members of the family and community provided each other with assistance and support in raising livestock, cultivating land, and moving to a new pasture.
Results: The economic and labor activity of a person in a traditional society was broad and multifaceted and was determined mainly by the natural and climatic conditions of living. In addition to assistance in normal, everyday life, there were also unforeseen circumstances that a person could not cope with without help, such as fire, flood, livestock deaths, crop deaths, etc. All this required traditional society to develop such mechanisms of interaction that would ensure the survival and development of its members. The traditional Khakass society has developed its own mechanisms of assistance in performing agricultural work over the course of a long history. Agricultural work in a traditional society without technical support was extremely difficult and difficult to perform by one person. In addition, in conditions of extensive farming, cases of livestock deaths and crop destruction were not isolated, and a person who was in a difficult life situation due to these circumstances could not cope with them independently, and was doomed to ruin if it were not for the help of the community and relatives. The well-being and well-being of the members of the traditional society completely depended on the success of the pastoral and agricultural economy.
Conclusion: The analyzed forms of assistance and mutual assistance provided support to the Khakass population in these types of activities and, thanks to the existence of various customs of assistance, a person in a traditional Khakass society was not left alone with his problem, he was given a chance to correct the situation, and, at least, to provide himself with food.
Key words: Khakassia, Khakas ethnic group, family, community cattle breeding, assistance, mutual assistance, traditions of assistance, agricultural work.

STRENGTHENING KAZAKHSTAN'S CIVIL IDENTITY: THE PROBLEM OF INTEGRITY
The author considers the state civil identity of the population of Kazakhstan, noting that the term "Kazakh" carries an ethno-national meaning, and the term "Kazakh" expresses the territorial aspect. The author briefly analyzes the articles of the Constitution of the Republic of Kazakhstan, strategic national projects (the Patriotic act "Eternal country" ("mengilik El"), "big family – big country", the national project "Menin Elim" ("my country"), which play a major role in the formation and strengthening of Kazakhstan's identity. The country's leadership sees the new Kazakh identity as a single and common identity, built on a system of equality of economic, social, cultural opportunities, quality of life and stability. In order to achieve this goal, there is a need for effective work of the professional state apparatus, ensuring the rule of law, the economy, transparent work of an accountable state, etc. The author gives an example of a sociological research and its analysis. It was revealed that young people are more likely to refer to themselves as "citizens of Kazakhstan" than the older generation. The reason for this may be nostalgia for the Soviet past.
Key words: identity, Kazakhstan identity, Kazakh identity, national strategic projects.

ENGINEERING EDUCATION IN RUSSIA IN THE XXI CENTURY: PATERNALIZATION AND DELIBERALIZATION
The author identifies the main features and evaluates the results of modernization of engineering education in the 90-ies of the XX century. It is noted that there is an exceptional public consensus for Russia on the need for and the main directions of reform of the 90s. The importance of the effects of liberal reforms is emphasized. The economic effects of the reform of the 90s are estimated as negative. Examines the rotation policy of engineering education from liberal to gosudarstvennoi model, the tendency to the abandonment of the gains of liberal reforms, manifested in the change of paradigm of relations between the state and civil society partnership and dialogue on gosudarstvennuyu and paternalistic. Since 2001, there has been a sharp paternalistic turn in state policy regarding engineering education: it is returning to the model of “state order from above,” while civil society represented by the academic community, local communities, public organizations, and economic actors has lost the bulk of subjectivity in determining and the implementation of national educational policies. As a result of the analysis, it is concluded that even before 2012 there was a departure of the educational system from the principles of liberalism, openness, academic freedom and European integration.
Key words: engineering education, democracy, liberalization, education, reform, consensus, civil society, paternalism.

THEORIES OF THE INTERNATIONAL RELATIONS IN WASHINGTON'S STRATEGY IN THE GREATER MIDDLE EAST
The article attempts to identify and analyze some, in the opinion of the author, the most significant foreign policy theories of American researchers, which are used by the US leadership to justify its foreign policy strategy in the world, including the Greater Middle East region. This choice of topic is justified by the fact that the development and implementation of the national security priorities of the Russian Federation are largely related to the successes and failures of the United States in the region. The main attention is concentrated on such trends as neorealism, isolationism, the neocon`s theory of export of the democratic revolution, deterrence, liberal hegemony, and a unipolar world order. It is shown how their particular positions and attitudes are used in Washington’s foreign policy strategy in the Greater Middle East.

RUSSIAN PRIORITIES IN THE CONTEXT OF TURKISH-UKRAINIAN STRATEGIC PARTNERSHIP: CRIMEAN ISSUE
The current legal status of Crimea is a target for criticism of Russia and the sanctions imposed by Euro-Atlantic community. It is obvious that the legitimacy of Crimea’s referendum will be permanently put on international agenda by two states – Ukraine and Turkey, among others. In this context, building a constructive political dialogue between Russia and Ukraine is defined by the need to level anti-Russian sentiments and to prevent regional escalation. In this process it seems necessary to attract a third party that could influence conflicting states: the Republic of Turkey can act as a mediator, in particular, relating to the Crimean issue.

RELATIONS BETWEEN CENTRE AND PROVINCES IN ARGENTINA
In this article the author analyzes the balance of federal relations between the centre and the provinces of Argentina. This country is one of the oldest federations in the world and sets an example of a successful maintenance of the balance between national government and regions. The aim of the study is to measure the balance of these relations. The pursuit of achieving this goal involves the usage of a conceptual framework developed by a Russian political scientist Rostislav Turovskiy who points out the balance of military, administrative, economic and ideological power. In order to investigate the balance of administrative power the author has conducted a quantitative analysis of the Argentine Constitution, more specifically, he evaluates the amount of powers of the centre and the regions as well as their ratio. The results have been compared to these figures of some other federations of the world. In order to define the balance of economic power the percentage of the provinces in the budget was measured (it was also compared to those figures of other federations). Finally, in order to examine the balance of ideological power the author has conducted a statistical analysis of the results of the gubernatorial and presidential elections at the regional level (both were held in 2019). Besides, he investigates the Argentine regional parties, their political weight and attitude towards the ruling party. As a result of the study the author comes to a conclusion that the balance of the relations between the provinces and the centre is shifted in favour of the latter, however it is a common situation in any nation, otherwise it would disintegrate. Moreover, the Argentine federation is relatively decentralized.

The article considers the problem of the spread of Islamist terrorism in Europe after the end of the Cold War. The authors note that throughout the twentieth century.

The article shows that the threat of terrorism today continues to be one of the most serious problems for the European security system. The study identifies several factors that, according to the authors, contribute to the growth of the terrorist threat. These include the acute migration crisis that the European Union has survived, and the consequences of which are still persisting.

This article is an attempt at a brief analysis of the main causes that led to the catastrophe of the Polish State in the Second World War. Poland is considered the first victim of World War II, but Germany's attack on Poland in the autumn of 1939 had a lot of causal ties, and a series of previous events, and is definitely not accidental. Following the First World War, the Polish State pursued a very active policy during the interwar period in trying to implement rather ambitious plans for Polish expansion, which could not but contradict the interests of other European states.
