The registration and regulation of marriage was one aspect of the Russian empire's modernization policies in the nineteenth century. Efforts by Russian state authorities to establish better control over their subjects through the registration and regulation of marriages created new questions and problems for the Muslim community and its understanding of the legality of marriage. This article focuses on the complications created by modern governance policies in the marriage practices of Russia’s Muslims. Even though the state wanted the Muslim family to be stable so that it might serve as the foundation of an imperial order, new laws introduced by the state caused confusion and disagreement within the Muslim community about the validity of marriages and disrupted the stability of the Muslim family.

The paper considers the importance of the anti-terrorist function of the state, which consists in the possibility of neutralizing the main threat-forming factors of illegal encroachments on the constitutional system: 1) radicalism; 2) enmity and hatred; 3) extremism; 4) terrorism. The purpose of the paper is to search for effective support of all areas of the state’s antiterrorist function: 1) prevention; 2) struggle; 3) elimination of harmful consequences; 4) self-sufficiency. The analysis of the category "anti-terrorist function of the state" is carried out in the combination of dialectical and systemic research methods, as well as by a conceptual approach to identifying new forms of implementation. In the course of the analysis, the author formulates and scientifically substantiates his position: the support of the anti-terrorist function of the state determines the social purpose and social significance of the prevention of terrorism as the primary direction of anti-terrorist activities. The paper reflects the currently important feature of the considered function — the socio-political component of countering terrorism as a point of contact between the opposing entities. The transformation of manifestations of terrorism, which creates threats to individual, public, state, collective, regional, and international security, requires anti-terrorist actors to act ahead of the curve. A citizen protected from terrorist influence will expect the state to maintain such a safe state. At the same time, the average citizen is far from being able to participate in strengthening the anti-terrorist function of the state. A separate set of state measures is of interest in the course of systematizing the functions of the modern Russian state. Modern terrorists, using the achievements of humanity, are embedded in an invulnerable actor of the planetary level. Attempts to reduce these manifestations to an acceptable level only by anti-criminal methods of law enforcement agencies are comparable to the failure and beginning of the reproduction of terrorism. Without a comprehensive approach in the anti-terrorist sphere, it is impossible to create sustainable development and conditions for the implementation of national interests. This system is formed, implemented, optimized, improved and harmonized under the influence of many socio-political factors. The stability of the system under study is conditional due to the variability of various external and internal sources of government that affect its processes.

ABSTRACTCivil society remains the most challenging and all-pervading of concepts, yet too rarely is it examined empirically. The potential of civil society is that it better allows understanding of local political structures as well as cross-class associational activity. Its alternatives, while many, are principally ‘public life’ and ‘influence’, both of which have their own highly respected traditions. It is argued here that civil society offers a powerful analysis of structure and action in the urban world, and that it is one mediated by municipal government. To operationalize this definition, this article will introduce three further concepts: ‘enshrinement’, ‘empowerment’ and ‘legitimacy’. Each of these is linked to the relationship of the municipal state with that at Westminster, the formal mechanism through which the stability of civil society in nineteenth-century Britain was negotiated.

In the second half of the nineteenth century, the nature of the national policy of Russia is significantly changing. After the events of 1863 in Poland (the Second Polish uprising), the government of Alexander II gradually abandoned the dominant idea of ​​anathematizing, whose essence is expressed in the domination of the principle of serving the state, the greatness of the empire. The tsar-reformer deliberately changes the policy of etatamism into the policy of state ethnocentrism. The manifestation of such a change is a ban on teaching in Polish (1869) and the temporary closure of the University of Warsaw. At the end of the 60s, the state's policy towards a five million Russian Jewry was radically revised. The process of abolition of restrictions on travel, education, place of residence initiated by Nicholas I, was provided reverse.

The need to educate citizenship and patriotism has ceased to be only a theoretical problem, and has found its embodiment in a large number of federal and regional programs. In comparison with the previous decades, the role and importance of civic identity and civic competence in modern Russia are becoming much more important. The civil competence of the student is formed by education-pedagogically organized purposeful process of development of the student as a person, a citizen, the development and adoption of values, moral attitudes and moral norms of societies. National security strategy of the Russian Federation (2015) relates to Russia's traditional spiritual and moral values: the priority of the spiritual over the material, protecting human life, rights and freedoms of the individual, family, creative work, service to the Fatherland, the norms of morality, humanity, mercy, justice, mutual aid, collectivism, historical unity of the peoples of Russia, the continuity of the history of our country. The formation of the civil identity of the young Russian personality forms with the help of Federal state educational standards of primary General, basic General and secondary General education, so the state policy in overcoming the crisis of civil identity devotes a large number of documents and programs to the field of education. The article attempts to trace how through normative and legal acts the state consistently tries to overcome the crisis of civil identity, identified by the scientific and expert community. Following the authors of state programs and the expert community studying the problems of identity crisis, it is noted in the article that the formation of civil identity is one of the most important conditions for the successful development of the country.
