HISTORICAL CONDITIONS FOR THE REVIVAL OF MILITARY TRADITIONS OF THE RUSSIAN ARMY ON THE EVE OF THE GREAT PATRIOTIC WAR (1930-1941)

The article is devoted to the study of the objective conditionality of the revival of military traditions of the Russian army on the eve of the Great Patriotic War. The main attention is paid to the analysis of military-historical conditions that prompted the leadership of the USSR to reconsider the unconditional priority of the class basis of state ideology and direct efforts to consolidate society through the formation of Soviet patriotism.

It is concluded that the need for the formation of national-state patriotism is due to the course taken since the early 1930s to build socialism in one separate country. It is emphasized that this turn in the theoretical and practical activities of the party and state bodies led to the restructuring of the entire system of Soviet historical education, to the return of national patriotic values and ideals of Russian statehood as the axiological basis of state ideology. In this restructuring, the entire rich potential of Russian education, science, literature and art was actively, purposefully and widely used.

The author concludes that without a decisive transition to national patriotic positions and the revival of military traditions in the pre-war years, victory in the Great Patriotic War would have been impossible.

Key words: the Great Patriotic War, military traditions, political work, the East Prussian strategic offensive operation, the education of personnel.

THE ACTIVITY OF THE RYAZAN REGIONAL COUNCIL OF PEOPLE'S DEPUTIES DURING THE POLITICAL CRISIS IN THE LATE 80S – EARLY 90S OF THE XX CENTURY

The relevance of the research topic is due to the significant impact of the deep political crisis that began in 1988 and manifested itself in the confrontation between the Supreme Council and the President of the Russian Federation and, ultimately, marked the beginning of the creation of a completely new type of public administration. The purpose of the article is a comprehensive and comprehensive analysis of the process of increasing crisis phenomena in the Soviet political system in the late 80s – early 90s of the XX century. The scientific novelty of the research lies in the study of the activities of the Ryazan Regional Council of People's Deputies during the political crisis. As a result of the study of the problem, new archival documents were involved in scientific circulation for the first time, a new interpretation of newspaper and magazine publications was given, taking into account their comparison with other historical sources. As a methodological basis for the study of the problem, the author uses an integrated approach to the study of historical phenomena. This helped to take into account not only socio-political conditions and legal norms, but also cultural factors that influenced the process of formation and functioning of the system of executive and legislative authorities in the Ryazan region.

Key words: Constitution of the Russian Federation, Supreme Soviet of the RSFSR, President of the Russian Federation, Congress of People's Deputies, Ryazan Regional Council of People's Deputies, Ryazan Regional Duma.

THE ELIMINATION OF ILLITERACY IN THE RYAZAN PROVINCE IN 1919-1920

The article substantiates the idea that the October Revolution of 1917 made its own adjustments to the solution of adult education issues. The circumstances were such that it was necessary to determine the directions and practical measures of local authorities to eliminate illiteracy as soon as possible.

Considerable attention is paid to the peculiarities of the fight against illiteracy in the Ryazan region. Based on the analysis, it was found that the lack of experience in such work inevitably required from managers of all degrees of these areas, more than anywhere else, broad and flexible ingenuity, creative initiative, great independence and increased responsibility. In modern conditions, the relevance of the study is due to the fact that already at a new historical stage of Russia's development, the problem of education reform arose, it is caused, of course, by those specific economic and political changes that have occurred in our country. The purpose of the study is to identify, based on the materials of the Ryazan province, the most appropriate and valuable, in our opinion, forms and methods of eliminating illiteracy of the population and recommend their use at the present stage. The scientific novelty of the study lies in the fact that for the first time, the elimination of illiteracy of the population in the Ryazan Region in a difficult socio-economic situation characterized by general devastation and depletion of material and human resources is considered comprehensively and comprehensively, based on a concrete historical approach.

Key words: Civil War, All-Russian Congress, literacy eradication, Decree, People's Commissariat of Education, RSFSR, Ryazan province.

ECONOMIC STRATEGIES OF PEASANT WOMEN IN A MIGRANT FAMILY AT THE STAGE OF ECONOMIC SETTLEMENT OF MIGRANTS IN WESTERN SIBERIA IN THE SECOND HALF OF THE XIX – BEGINNING OF THE XX CENTURIES

The article is devoted to the topic of mass peasant migrations in the second half of the 19th – early 20th centuries to the eastern outskirts of the country. The focus is on the female part of the peasant migrant family. The work defines a set of basic economic strategies of peasant women at the stage of migrant adaptation in Western Siberia. It is concluded that in the critical conditions of resettlement, peasant women were actively involved in the adaptation process and, along with traditional labor functions, developed strategies aimed at preserving the family, strengthening its economic foundations, which in turn contributed to the adaptation of migrants in Western Siberia.

Key words: Western Siberia, peasant migrations, migrants, resettlement movement, peasant woman, economic strategies.

CLERGY OF THE HISTORICAL REGION OF CHECHNYA CHEBERLOI: MANUSCRIPT OF ESAMBAY AKUEV (BASED ON FIELD RESEARCH MATERIALS)

The article is devoted to the life and work of a prominent representative of the clergy of the historical region of Chechnya Verkhny Cheberloi - Esambay Akuev. Written on the basis of the author's field materials collected within the framework of the historical and ethnographic expedition of the Academy of Sciences of the Chechen Republic, starting in 2021. The relevance of the topic is dictated by the increased interest in Chechen society in representatives of the clergy of Chechnya. The purpose of the article is to show how the syncretism of two cultures – ethnic and Islamic – served as the basis for the worthy life of this remarkable man, and can serve as an example for the younger generation to follow. The methods adopted in ethnographic science were used in the study.

The theologian came from a respected peasant family of good income. During the difficult years of the deportation of the Chechen people, he finds the strength to turn to creative work: he restores sayings from sacred texts from memory, and also writes down "Mavlid" in Arabic letters in his native dialect of the Chechen language. At this level, the dialect existed in Cheberloy at the beginning of the 20th century, which is of interest not only for historical science, but also for linguistics.

Key words: Cheberloy, Makazhoy, clergy, Esambay Akuyev, Cheberloy dialect, Mavlid in the dialect of the Chechen language.

POLITICAL AND PHILOSOPHICAL FOUNDATIONS OF SOME OF THE MODERNIST THEORIES OF NATION

The article examines the theories of the most prominent modernist scholars in nation and nationalism studies – Ernest Gellner, Eric Hobsbawm and Benedict Anderson. It is noted that a close examination of the texts of their key works shows the presence of certain political and philosophical foundations in them, which are inextricably linked to scientific argumentation and strongly influence it. It is shown that, despite the rather long history of the study of the texts of these authors in Russian science, Russian researchers still focus only on their scientific argumentation, completely ignoring the political and philosophical foundations of their theories, which play an extremely important role in these theories. It is the identification of such political and philosophical foundations of the theory of each of the named modernist scholars that is the aim of the article, for the achievement of which the tasks of consistent analysis of the most important works of the named authors and additional sources on the topic are solved.

The article uses logical analysis, content analysis and comparative analysis to examine one key work by each of the named authors – Ernest Gellner's “Nations and Nationalism”, Eric Hobsbawm's “Nations and Nationalism since 1780” and Benedict Anderson's “Imagined Communities” – as well as additional sources on the topic. The result of this analysis is the identification, clarification and detailed description of the political and philosophical foundations of the theory of each of the three authors. It is concluded that the political and philosophical foundations of Ernest Gellner's theory of nationalism and nationalism are closest to the philosophy of neoliberalism, Benedict Anderson's theory is closest to the philosophy of classical liberalism, and Eric Hobsbawm's theory is strongly influenced by Marxism.

Key words: nation, nationalism, modernism, political philosophy, neoliberalism, classical liberalism, Marxism.

HISTORY AND THEORETICAL ASPECTS OF THE STUDY OF HYBRID REGIMES

For a long time, classical political science has generally divided political regimes into democratic, authoritarian and totalitarian ones. However, in the last three decades, there has been a growing interest in the phenomenon of hybrid regimes in the academic field, which are something between classical democracy and authoritarianism. However, the real boom in the study of hybrid regimes occurred at the beginning of the noughties of the XXI century due to the fact that the so-called third wave of democratization did not lead to the expected spread of democracy throughout the world, but only strengthened a number of authoritarian regimes, which, having experienced deep processes of political transformation, only became more stable. It is widely believed in the scientific community that these changes have led a number of authoritarian states to a hybrid political system; At the same time, some researchers argued that hybrid regimes do not exist and there is only a «transitional period on the way to democracy». The article comprehensively examines the concept of hybrid regimes, analyzes the history and dynamics of academic discourse on this phenomenon, and identifies the necessary conditions for the emergence of hybrid regimes and their key characteristics. The author criticizes the view of hybrid regimes, which has become entrenched in Western political science with its characteristic very primitive division into «good regimes» (democracy, or Western regimes), «acceptable regimes» (hybrid) and «bad regimes» (authoritarian and totalitarian). This simplification looks like an attempt to denigrate ideological opponents.

Key words: hybrid regime, democracy, authoritarianism, political regime, waves of democratization.

THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN CLIMATIC AND ENVIRONMENTAL FACTORS IN POLITICAL DECISION-MAKING

The article presents a study of the relationship between climatic and environmental factors and the political decision-making process. In the context of global climate change and extreme weather events, the impact of the environment on socio-political processes is becoming increasingly evident and requires careful study. Historical examples of the impact of climate change on the development and decline of civilizations are analyzed, and contemporary research demonstrating the relationship between temperature anomalies, extreme weather, and various aspects of social and political behavior is reviewed. Special emphasis is placed on analyzing how climate factors can exacerbate existing social problems, such as economic inequality, racial discrimination, and health system deficiencies. The impact of extreme temperatures on levels of violence, interpersonal relationships, and political participation of citizens is examined. The question of how climate change may affect the decision-making process of political leaders and the formation of public opinion is addressed. A critical analysis of existing approaches to accounting for climate factors in political planning is presented and new methodological frameworks for integrating environmental considerations into the decision-making process are proposed. The mechanisms through which climate change may affect political stability, economic development, and social cohesion of society are studied. Particular attention is given to the role of mass media in shaping public perceptions of climate threats and their influence on political discourse. The potential consequences of ignoring the climate factor when developing policy strategies and the need to integrate climate and environmental considerations into the policy decision-making process are identified. The importance of combining the efforts of experts from different scientific fields to create actionable measures to adapt to changing environmental conditions and minimize the negative impacts of global warming is emphasized. Specific recommendations are proposed for policymakers and decision-makers to consider climate factors in the design and implementation of policy strategies.

Key words: climate change, political decisions, environmental factors, social stability, extreme weather events, adaptation, interdisciplinary research.

THE POST-SECULARITY OF RUSSIAN SOCIETY: CONCEPTUAL AND THEORETICAL UNDERSTANDING OF THE CAUSES OF THE PHENOMENON

Modern societies adapt to the conditions of religious and cultural pluralism with varying success. The Western theory of secularization, which prevailed for most of the 20th century, assumed as a mandatory aspect of modernization the separation of religion from the state, and ultimately the marginalization of this phenomenon at the personal level of each individual. However, such phenomena in the modern globalized world as the revival of religious activity in many societies, manifestations of religious fundamentalism, religiously motivated terrorism, and global economic crises have called into question the validity and rigor of secularization theory. In this article, the dynamic change of the scientific paradigm in the fields of sociology and political science of religion was considered; the modern religious situation in the Russian Federation was analyzed through the prism of the theories of "desecularization" by the American sociologist P. Berger and the "postsecularity" of the German philosopher Yu. Habermas using sociological data. The author of the article identifies several main features of Russian postsecularity, the most striking among which is the combination of a high level of declared (claimed) commitment to the Orthodox faith by citizens with extremely low personal involvement in religious practice. The Orthodox faith revived in post-Soviet Russia is seen by the authorities and the population as an important component of the political (ideological), moral and cultural identity of Russian society, rather than an active religious practice. The author sees one of the possible reasons for this phenomenon in the special socio-cultural context of secularization in the USSR. The purposeful God-fighting policy of the Soviet government transformed the habitual religiosity of the population into political religiosity, devoid of the transcendent, but at the same time filling with new meanings such secular phenomena as state power, the highest goal of society, unity in the fight against an external ideological opponent, etc.

Key words: religion, religious identity, secularization, desecularization, clericalization, post-secular society, post-secularism, state, globalization, post-Soviet Russia.

PREVENTION OF TERRORISM WITH THE HELP OF POLITICAL TECHNOLOGIES

At the present stage, terrorism is a problem of international importance. The efforts of each state, to a certain extent, are aimed at eradicating this socially dangerous phenomenon. In this regard, technologies whose purpose is not to combat terrorism, but to prevent terrorist activity, are of particular relevance. The purpose of this work was to study the prevention of terrorism with the help of political technologies. To achieve the goal of the study, it was necessary to solve a number of problems: 1) to characterize the essence of terrorism; 2) to identify its differences from extremism; 3) to determine the main technologies, the implementation of which is aimed at preventing terrorism.

In the study, methods of historical analysis were used, as well as interdisciplinary methods.

The results of the work clearly demonstrate that the identification of the most effective technologies for combating terrorism involves determining the essence and content of this antisocial phenomenon, the main levels of formation of terrorist activity. The most effective for the prevention of terrorism are political technologies based on digital platforms, updating domestic legislation against terrorism, educational and socio-economic state initiatives that prevent the development of terrorist activity in the Russian state and society.

Key words: terrorism, terrorist activity, terrorist act, extremism, political technologies, Russian Federation.

INTERREGIONAL COOPERATION ON ARCTIC ISSUES: CURRENT SPECIFICS AND PROSPECTS

This article presents an analysis of the relationships between the subjects of the Russian Federation regarding Arctic issues. The author examines the factors that facilitate or hinder the establishment of close cooperative links between subjects that are geographically – either fully or partially – part of the Arctic zone of the Russian Federation and are actively involved in the state’s Arctic policy. It is noted that these subjects possess varying resources that impact the formation of cooperative relationships, which necessitates cooperation to achieve the goals and objectives of the state’s Arctic policy. The conclusion is drawn that the consolidation of subjects to achieve common goals faces limitations due to significant internal inequalities and competition among the most prominent and productive participants.

ON SOME SPECIFIC FEATURES OF THE INFLUENCE OF RUSSIAN FEDERALISM ON THE REGIONAL SYSTEM OF STATE AUTHORITY

The article is devoted to the problem of determining the subjects of jurisdiction and powers of state authorities in Russia, as well as their distribution between the centre and the region. It is proposed to study this feature of Russian federalism in the context of its influence on the system of separation of powers in the regions. The study applies political and legal analysis of normative acts, which allows us to study the legal basis for the distribution of powers between the federation and its subjects. In addition, a systematic approach is used, since the subjects of jurisdiction and powers of the regions are included in the general legislative system of the Russian Federation, which creates certain restrictive frameworks. The purpose of the study is to identify the peculiarities of the distribution of powers between the regions and the federal centre in the framework of influence on the regional system of state power. As a result of the study, the main concepts such as ‘subjects of jurisdiction of the Russian Federation’, ‘joint jurisdiction’, ‘exclusive jurisdiction of the subject’ are defined, and the concepts of ‘powers’ and ‘competences’ are clarified. It was determined that the subjects of jurisdiction allocated to the subjects are formed on a residual principle and regulated by federal laws, while most of the ‘subjects of joint jurisdiction’ are financed, as a rule, at the expense of the subject of the Russian Federation. In this regard, the problem arises that the amount of financial support available to the region does not allow for the necessary implementation of all the powers vested in the subject. This factor puts the regional public authorities in actual dependence on the federal authorities, which creates prerequisites for strengthening the importance of such a factor as ‘federal support’ of the regional institution of public power. For this reason, regional political actors set themselves one of the tasks – to obtain the maximum resource from the federal centre while competing with each other.

Key words: federalism, region, subjects of competence, authority, separation of powers.

CONTEMPORARY PROBLEMS OF REGULATION OF EXTERNAL MIGRATION TO THE RUSSIAN FEDERATION AND WAYS TO SOLVE THEM

The purpose of the study is to study the most pressing aspects of the problem of regulating external migration to Russia and to find optimal ways to solve these issues. The author used the following research methods: analysis, synthesis and generalization of scientific research, analysis of the regulatory framework and statistical data. The result of the study was the theses that the practice of assessing the criteria for labor shortages in regional labor markets and the impossibility of filling this shortage through domestic labor resources should become regular and applicable to all countries from which migrants come. To ensure objectivity, it is necessary to use a system of quantitative indicators that reflect the state of the local labor market, the balance of labor resources, and the impact of internal and international migration. Conclusions: a comprehensive approach to solving the problems of external labor migration in Russia will not only improve the situation on the labor market, but also make migration an effective tool for the development of the country's economy.

Key words: migration, external migration, labor migration, labor shortage, migration policy, labor market.

INTERNATIONAL TRANSPORT CORRIDOR "NORTH-SOUTH": WAYS OF FORMING EURASIAN LOGISTICS

This article is devoted to the consideration of the formation of logistics directions in which the EAEU countries and a number of international actors participate, when the corridor becomes a place of intersection of the transport corridors of Eurasia. It is noted that among the promising areas for Russia and the EAEU, the North-South International Transport Corridor (ITC) stands out, which should promote the development of trade relations with the countries of the Middle East, Southeast Asia and African states and prevent a transport blockade from the West. It is emphasized that the sanctions of Western countries against the Russian Federation created various sectoral problems in the field of shipping, which contributed to the withdrawal of the North-South ITC to the level of one of the key channels for the production of both exports and imports from the Russian Federation and the EAEU. It is concluded that over the years of its existence, it has not been possible to achieve fully set goals, but still there are certain successes and achievements. The MTK has become a multimodal project that.

Key words: MTK North-South, Eurasian Economic Union, cargo transportation, routes, seaports.

SHANGHAI COOPERATION ORGANIZATION IN GLOBAL GOVERNANCE

Current processes of forming a fair multipolar world order require clarification of the principles of global governance, the key one of which is the principle of decentralization. The emerging system of decentralized global governance determines the relevance of the study of the SCO as an international organization that carries out its activities in accordance with the UN Charter but has independent functionality in the field of regulating international relations in Eurasia. The normative potential of the SCO and its status as a platform for coordinating the concepts of foreign policy of Eurasian states predetermines the most important role of the SCO in organizing inter- and trans-regional cooperation.

The SCO promotes the formation of the practice of international relations based on the geo-economic approach, the formation of regional systems of international relations and, in the long term, the corresponding to the concept of multipolarity coordination of regional groups of states on the principles of the cluster approach in global governance.

The results of the study were obtained using the linguistic legal method, the civilizational approach, the geopolitical scientific approach, as well as other methods inherent in global and regional studies. The article presents the results of a study of the ideological foundations of the SCO, its status and prospects in the system of decentralized global governance.

Key words: SCO, global governance, multipolarity, globalization of political processes, regionalization of political processes, Greater Eurasia.

NEW APPROACHES OF THE TURKISH GOOD PARTY TO PROMOTING PAN-TURKIST IDEAS AND VALUES DURING THE CHAIRMANSHIP OF M. AKŞENER

The article examines the approaches to foreign policy of the center-right opposition Turkish Good Party. The Good Party arose as a result of a split within the Nationalist Movement Party, which is considered as the main political actor in Turkey upholding pan-Turkic values. Unlike the Nationalist Movement Party, which was quite ossified in its approaches, the Good Party, formed in 2017, was able to offer many new ideas and tools aimed at the Turkish-centric integration of the Turkic peoples. Although the Good Party is experiencing a severe internal crisis in 2024, its ideas could have a significant impact on the external expansion of Turkish nationalism in the future.

Key words: Turkey, Good Party, Nationalist Movement Party, Pan-Turkism, Turkish parties, Turkish foreign policy, Russian-Turkish relations, Meral Akşener.

CRISIS IN RELATIONS BETWEEN QATAR AND THE THREE GULF COOPERATION COUNCIL COUNTRIES

The crisis between Qatar and the three Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) countries (Saudi Arabia, United Arab Emirates, and Bahrain), has had significant implications on regional politics and security. The conflict began in 2017 when the three GCC countries severed diplomatic and economic ties with Qatar, citing its alleged support for terrorism and its close ties with Iran. This has led to significant deterioration in political, economic, and social relations between the countries, as well as the impact on their citizens and businesses. The crisis has also raised concerns about the future of the GCC and its ability to maintain unity and cooperation in the face of regional challenges. This abstract will explore the causes and consequences of the crisis, as well as potential avenues for resolution and reconciliation between the involved parties.

Key words: Qatar, Gulf Cooperation Council, crisis, diplomatic relations.

PROSPECTS FOR CREATING A COLLECTIVE SECURITY SYSTEM IN SOUTH ASIA

The article addresses the issue of establishing a collective security system in South Asia. The author emphasizes that the region is characterized by an "explosive" potential, encompassing chronic instability, unpredictability, and a plethora of challenges, including terrorist threats, drug trafficking, illegal migration, and poverty. The author concludes that the necessity of establishing a regional security system has been long overdue, yet for various reasons, its creation currently appears to be unfeasible.

The author identifies several key reasons for the impossibility of creating such a system. These include the significant military and economic imbalance between India and the rest of South Asian states, unresolved disputes between the nations of the region, the coutries’ own political interests, and the paralyzed work of key regional security organizations (e.g., the South Asian Association for Regional Cooperation (SAARC), etc.). It is speculated that India, as a potential regional leader, could take the initiative to alter the status quo and initiate the development of an effective regional security system. Specifically, engaging in dialogue with South Asian states as equal partners, accompanied by a series of concessions in existing disputes, could establish the necessary conditions for breaking the region's current vicious cycle.

Furthermore, the author examines the activities of SAARC, delineating the pivotal deficiencies inherent in its structure that impede its capacity to address regional challenges. The author then proceeds to offer pragmatic recommendations for reforming the organization, which could definitively enhance SAARC's efficacy and contribute to the development of a regional security system.

The author's perspective will be of particular interest to scholars and experts engaged in the fields of international security, Indian studies, and international relations.

Key words: India, SAARC, South Asia, China, regional security, system of collective security.

FEATURES OF RUSSIA'S RELATIONSHIP WITH THE ARCTIC COUNCIL

The importance of the Arctic in the life of the world community is noticeably increasing, since the solution of energy, environmental and socio-cultural problems depends on the state of this region. The purpose of the article is to consider the role of Russia in the formation and ongoing work of the Arctic Council, maintaining joint work of the countries of the region and non-Arctic countries to ensure sustainable development of the Arctic. The article sets the following tasks: analysis of relations between Russia and the Arctic Council, generalization of Russia's work on international cooperation in the region and the results of Russia's chairmanship of the council (20210-2023), identification of the reasons for the deterioration of Russia's relations with Western countries since 2014 and especially since 2022; assessment of the possibilities for further cooperation with different countries on Arctic issues.

The Arctic Council is an international organization that plays an important role in maintaining mutually beneficial cooperation between Arctic and other countries in the development of Arctic territories, conservation of nature and communities of indigenous peoples inhabiting the Arctic. This organization, by its very nature, should not focus on military and political issues, but nevertheless, the international situation in the Arctic region has been influenced by anti-Russian states. Russia is the largest member of the Arctic Council in terms of territory and Arctic population. The Government of the Russian Federation has defined the Arctic as a priority area of national interests and has developed a long-term national program for its development. Russia seeks to develop the Arctic region and build constructive relations with the Council member states. However, after the introduction of economic sanctions in 2014 and the launch of the special military operation (SMO) by Russia in 2022, the Arctic Council members demanded that Russia leave the territory of Ukraine and limited their relations with Russia. This has had a negative impact on Russia's activities as the Chairman of the Arctic Council.

Key words: Arctic Council, Russian Federation, Arctic Regional Governance, Arctic Council Chairmanship.

CONTRADICTIONS BETWEEN JAPAN'S HISTORICAL POLICY AND OKINAWA'S HISTORICAL MEMORY: EXHIBITIONS AT THE OKINAWA PREFECTURAL PEACE MEMORIAL MUSEUM AND THE YUSHUKAN MUSEUM

Conflicts over the memory of World War II remain an important aspect of political processes in East Asia to this day. The historical policy pursued by the Japanese authorities has been criticized by states in the region for decades. At the same time, it also causes discontent in one of the regions of Japan – Okinawa Prefecture. This article examines the characteristics of two coexisting discourses on World War II. One is supported by the Liberal Democratic Party of Japan, which dominates the country's political life. The other is supported by the regional government and civil society in Okinawa. To compare them, the article uses materials from two history museums that are significant sites of memory for these discourses: the Yushukan Museum at Yasukuni Shrine and the Okinawa Prefectural Peace Memorial Museum.

Key words: Politics of Memory, Historical Politics, Okinawa, Japan, Historical Memory, Yasukuni.

BUSINESS ASSOCIATIONS IN THE POLITICAL SPACE OF POST-SOVIET COUNTRIES

This article is devoted to the consideration of the current nature of the activities and status of business associations in the political space of post-Soviet countries. Business associations of post-Soviet countries represent one of the most resourceful and involved in various political processes interest group. The following post-Soviet countries were chosen for the study: Belarus, Georgia, Lithuania, Kazakhstan and Russia. The paper provides an overview of the birth and development of business associations in these countries, describes the reasons that triggered the transformation of the participation models of business associations in these countries, which continue to this day. The paper also identifies a common approach used within the framework of this transformation by the countries listed above, which is neo-corporate. This approach consists in the creation and regulation of business associations by the state, which also determines the specific areas of activity of the associations themselves. At the same time, the presented neocorporativism of post-Soviet countries has a share of quasi-institutionalism, since most of the existing associations of the post-Soviet countries under consideration do not have a fixed regulatory status. The article identifies the existing trends in the development of business association models of post-Soviet countries within the neocorporativist approach. It also presents and analyzes the main problems that exist today within the framework of the formed models of participation of business associations in the political space.

Key words: Business associations, post-Soviet countries, representation of interests, entrepreneurial community, lobbyism, GR-technologies, neo-corporativism.

RUSSIA'S INTERESTS IN THE CENTRAL AFRICAN REPUBLIC: BASED ON INTERVIEWS WITH FOREIGN EXPERTS

The article examines Russia’s interests in the Central African Republic (CAR) from the point of view of Western researchers. Since 2017 Russia has intensified contacts with this country, which for a long time remained on the periphery of Russian foreign policy priorities. In this regard, understanding Russia's interests in the CAR can be considered as relevant academic problem. In addition, looking at this problem from another angle allows to better understand some aspects of the african direction of Russia's foreign policy. The article stipulates that political interests (the struggle for a bridgehead in the center of Africa) currently prevail over economic and humanitarian directions of cooperation with the CAR.

Key words: Russia, Central African Republic, political interests, foreign policy, cooperation.

THE GEOPOLITICAL AND GEO-ECONOMIC IMPACT OF INFRASTRUCTURE AND ECONOMIC CORRIDORS OF THE PRC'S BELT AND ROAD INITIATIVE IN SOUTH AND SOUTH-EASTERN ASIA

In the proposed article, the author analyzes the geopolitical and geo-economic significance of the infrastructural and economic corridors of the Chinese initiative "One Belt, One Road" (BRI). The introductory part emphasizes that the interconnectedness of territories and communities is a key factor in economic progress. China, continuing the traditions of the ancient Silk Road, seeks to minimize the risks associated with dependence on sea routes and initiates alternative land routes from Western Asia and Africa.

The "One Belt, One Road" initiative, announced in 2013, includes significant investments in infrastructure and the development of the Asian Infrastructure Investment Bank (AIIB). The world's leading economies are participating in this project, which minimizes trade costs and expands economic opportunities in the regions involved in the initiative.

The main corridors of the OBOR cover eight key routes, including the most important – the China-Pakistan and Bangladesh-China-India-Myanmar economic corridor. Each of them has its own unique characteristics and represents a combination of transport, energy and cultural links. For example, the China-Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC) is a strategically important project connecting China with the Gwadar port in Pakistan, which implies significant development of transport infrastructure.

The risks and challenges faced by these corridors are also considered. Geopolitical tensions, especially in the South China Sea and around India's economic interests, have an impact on the success of OPOP projects. The participating countries must find a balance between economic benefits and political commitments.

In conclusion, it is noted that the "One Belt, One Road" initiative contains the potential to bring existing trade and investment relations to a new level, but requires careful management and cooperation between the parties involved to minimize risks and achieve sustainable development.

Key words: geopolitics, Belt and Road Initiative, China, USA, European Union.

GLOBAL CHALLENGES FOR THE DEVELOPMENT OF THE EAEU

The article is devoted to the problem of defining current global challenges for the Eurasian Economic Union (EAEU) in the context of the current transformation of international relations and geopolitical bifurcation. It is noted that the formation of new "centers of power" in the person of China and regional leaders (Turkey), as well as attempts by the United States and the EU to strengthen or diversify their influence on the countries of Eurasia, including the EAEU states, contribute to the complication of cooperation issues between states within the union. It is shown that the leading role in strengthening cooperation between countries within the EAEU belongs to Russia, which, due to natural factors (geographical location and proximity to most of the member states of the Union) as well as political and economic weight, is the initiator of the construction of "Great Eurasia". At the same time, the efforts of unfriendly states are aimed at weakening or reducing the role and significance of Russia on a global and regional scale, and therefore at reducing the role and economic potential of the entire EAEU. The purpose of the study is to systematize and identify the sources of global challenges for the development of the EAEU. The objectives of the study are to identify and systematize the main groups of challenges for the development of the EAEU, determine the key threats to the functioning of the Union as a whole and identify the geopolitical priorities of the main actors in relation to the EAEU member states. Research methods: system and logical analysis. Results: the trends in the dynamics of mutual trade in the total volume of foreign trade in goods of individual EAEU member states, the main priorities of world leaders in relation to the Union member states are highlighted. Conclusions: the conducted research shows the relevance of searching for new approaches to the formation of a balanced economic policy for the endogenous development of the EAEU member countries, which would be based on supporting strategic areas of economic development and stimulating national production in the context of ensuring more complete production cycles, a sound import substitution policy, consumer market development, new standards for protecting the business sector from global fluctuations (challenges and threats), the formation of strategic competitiveness of the economies of the member countries in the long term and its adaptability to the cyclicality of globalization processes.
