The author claims that contemporary cooperation between the state and a citizen in Russia is evolving from a state-centralist model to a kind of partnership. The degree and quality of the state’s cooperation is determined by the hybrid nature of the Russian political system – a combination of elements of democratic institutions and autocratic methods of governance. Cooperation between the state and a citizen should be discussed in the context of attaining the opportunities for cooperation between the citizens and the state in order to achieve general aims, as a means of resolving problems. The author holds the opinion that cooperation can be not only an expression of solidarity, but also a testament to peaceful coexistence (not aimed at wrangling). What serves as an indicator of such cooperation between the state and a citizen is trust in the authorities. It should be said that in the conditions of unconsolidated democratic culture of cooperation between the state and the society, the attitude of the majority of citizens to the contemporary political authorities in Russia is, to a high degree, based on trust in Vladimir Putin. However, the noticeable decrease in the level of trust to certain institutions of authority is a result of the inaction, immorality, and corruption of certain groups of policymakers or representatives of the authorities. One of the major challenges of the authorities is how to increase social trust in political institutions.

This chapter examines violence monopoly. Violence monopoly refers to whether the state is capable of establishing an order in which its claim to be the ultimate and principal employer of coercion goes largely unchallenged. The more often states are challenged, and the more intense the nature of the challengers, the less likely the state is to survive as the central institution of a political system. A poor showing in the violence monopoly category is one of the Indian state's greatest vulnerabilities in terms of state capacity. It will need to be improved upon simply to maintain order. Yet it is doubtful that the Indian state will improve in this area rapidly.

There is no a communitydeprived from multiculturalism of religious, ethnics and linguistic. The freedom of the citizen is linked to cultural edification, in turns, the availability of opportunities for peaceful coexistence and acceptance of others. In order to,transfer the individuals and groups from the state of clash and struggle into a state of living together. It is a form of access to the political and legal systems to make these rights a real, through the availability of integration processes at the beginning is the building of  Citizenship which is theonly relationship that achieve integration over social, religious and cultural divisions for the establishment civil stateof a stable political system.

ABSTRACT Rodríguez Hidalgo et al. (2013, ApJ, 775, 14) have reported the transition of a C iv mini-broad absorption line (mini-BAL) into a BAL in quasar SDSS J115122.14+020426.3 (hereafter J1151+0204). Based on the two-epoch spectra obtained from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey, we further investigate the three BAL systems (systems A, B and C) in J1151+0204. First, we confirm that the absorption-line variability in J1151+0204 is most likely caused by the change in ionization in response to the continuum variation, according to at least the following observational factors: coordinated strengthening is detected between multiple absorption troughs, and the continuum shows obvious weakening. According to photoionization simulations, asynchronized variability between the continuum and absorption lines indicates that the mini-BAL (system A) of J1151+0204 actually represents the state of a higher ionization level and lower C iv column density of the outflow, while its BAL identifies the state of a lower ionization level and higher C iv column density. Second, we find a rare case of a quintuple, which is due to four successive line-locked C iv doublets, within system C. This indicates that these outflow clouds have achieved a high degree of clumpiness, and that the radiative forces play a significant role in the acceleration process of these clumpy outflow clouds.

The Relationship

This paper explores the ideas that have been offered by the Putin leadership in Russia to justify the concentration of power achieved since 2000. Though Vladimir Putin has said that Russia does not need a state ideology, since early 2006 some officials associated with Putin, including Vladislav Surkov, have called for an ideology for the dominant United Russia Party, and have asserted that Putin’s speeches provide the core of that ideology. This essay discusses Putin’s position on Russia’s commitment to democracy, the relationship between Russia and Europe, and the nature of the international system in which Russia fi nds itself. The author sees the concept of “sovereign democracy” that has been offered by Surkov and endorsed by United Russia as summarizing ideas that already had been articulated by Putin. Putin’s words strongly emphasize the importance of a consensus of values in Russian society and politics. That theme has important implications for the relationship between the state and civil society in Russia. Evans argues that the ideological pronouncements of the Putin leadership refl ect tension between apparently inconsistent principles resulting from a combination of inherently contradictory themes. Putin identifi es the main danger facing Russia in the contemporary period as disintegration rather than stagnation.

INTRODUCTION. The concept of nationality of an aircraft is borrowed from the law of the sea; it is currently enshrined in the Chicago Convention on International Civil Aviation of 1944. Registration performs several functions: firstly, it allows the identification of an aircraft; secondly, it implies the obligation of the state of registration to control its operation; thirdly, it implies the responsibility of the state of registration in the event of failure to exercise such control.MATERIALS AND METHODS. The research was done on the basis of the Chicago Convention of 1944, Cape Town Convention on International Interests in Mobile Equipment 2001, Protocol on Matters Specific to Aircraft Equipment 2001, acts of Russian legislation and acts of offshore legislation, primarily Air Navigation Order 2013. The research involved historical method, methods of formal logic and comparative legal method. The main objective was to develop proposals aimed at increasing the attractiveness of the Russian registry.RESEARCH RESULTS. The Russian registration system has several shortcomings: lack of a codified act; presence of two authorities with overlapping competencies (the Interstate Aviation Committee and the Federal Air Transport Agency); high customs duties on the import of certain types of aircrafts. To this should be added the shortcomings relating to the organization of the registration process: a high degree of its bureaucratization, lengthiness, shortage of qualified specialists, etc. The registration of an aircraft in offshore, on the contrary, implies a number of advantages: speed and “friendliness”, confidentiality of beneficiary data, absence of VAT and customs duties, quality of airworthiness control.DISCUSSION AND CONCLUSIONS. The problem can be resolved imperatively – by fixing the strict obligation of airlines to register aircraft in the domestic registry under the threat of non-issuance or revocation of the operator’s certificate. If, however, this registry does not meet international standards, this measure will adversely affect the development of the aviation sector and the safety of transport. In this regard, the creation of a transparent, holistic and efficient registration system meets the interests of the state no less than the interests of airlines. With regard to the Russian Federation, achieving this goal involves completing a number of tactical tasks, aimed at simplifying formalities, ensuring recognition of the Russian registration system and stimulating trade turnover.

This is the concluding chapter of Parliamentary Elections in Russia. It draws together the themes of the previous eight chapters, examining the evolution of the Russian political system, the campaigns for election to the State Duma between 1993 and 2016 and the party landscape of modern-day Russia. It concludes that the current stability in the Russian political system may be temporary and depends to a large extent on the continued popularity and legitimacy of Vladimir Putin. It discusses possible trajectories for future party system development in Putin’s fourth term.

Abstract Idealized model simulations have long been established as valuable tools to gain insight into atmospheric phenomena by providing a simplified, easier to comprehend version of the complex atmospheric system. A specific subgroup of idealized simulations, such as baroclinic channel models, requires the initialization of the model with balanced atmospheric fields to investigate the evolution of an introduced perturbation. The quality of these simulations depends on the degree of balance of the initial state, as imbalances result in geostrophic and hydrostatic adjustment processes that potentially skew the results. In this paper, a general method to create geostrophically and hydrostatically balanced initial conditions is introduced. The major benefit of this method is the possibility to directly define a basic state wind field with the pertinent atmospheric fields being derived given appropriate boundary conditions. Application of the method is exemplified by constructing initial conditions for a baroclinic test case with WRF and analyzing a perturbed and unperturbed numerical simulation. The unperturbed simulation exhibits weak inertia–gravity wave activity and minimal adjustment of the initial state during a 5-day simulation, which confirms the high degree of initial balance provided by the initialization technique. In the perturbed simulation, baroclinic instability is initiated, resulting in a cyclogenesis event similar to previous idealized baroclinic channel simulations. The proposed method is compared with initial conditions formulated in a Boussinesq framework, illustrating the difference in imbalances and their effect on perturbation growth.

Macroeconomic Indicators

AbstractThe aim of this paper is to describe and analyze people's confidence in political institutions in the so-called BRICS countries, that is, Brazil, Russia, India, China, and South Africa. I argue that the quality of macroeconomic indicators cannot explain the variation in political confidence between the five most dynamic new emerging economies, and that there is no substantial difference among the young, middle-aged, and senior-aged groups. By combing data from the Asia Barometer Survey and the World Value Survey, I provide two complementary approaches, one sociocultural and the other micropolitical, to reveal the factors that influence people's confidence in four major political institutions. The explanatory effects of these two approaches are mixed. Political identity and values, in most cases, have a significant impact on political confidence. On the other hand, high levels of interpersonal social trust, individual happiness, and satisfaction with living standards also show positive influences.

As a multi-ethnic country, the Party and the State of Vietnam have always determined that ethnic affairs and national solidarity have a huge significant position. Building a contingent of ethnic minority staff in the political system remains one of the solutions to realize equality and solidarity among ethnic groups. The recent building of ethnic minority staff has been paid special attention and achieved certain remarkable results. The quality of ethnic minority staff has been increasingly improved. This importantly contributes to the socio-economic development of Vietnam in the upcoming years.
