The article discusses the competences and powers of the state authorities of the Russian Federation within their legal status in the field of ensuring the security of critical information infrastructure. Some functions and authorities in the field of information security have changed in a number of federal executive bodies. In particular, the Federal Security Service, on the basis of a presidential decree, is authorized to create a state system for detecting, preventing and eliminating the consequences of computer attacks on information resources of the Russian Federation. However, not all rights and obligations are enshrined; a number of powers cause the duality of the legal status of certain federal bodies of state power. The clarity and unambiguity of securing the rights and obligations of state bodies authorized in the field of information security are guarantees for effectively ensuring the security of important information infrastructure facilities.

Using the main elements of the institutional analysis methodology, the author considers the impact of geopolitical factors on Russia's economic security. Based on historical and economic analysis, it is concluded that the decisions of the Crimean (Yalta) and Potsdam (1945) conferences that defined the contours of the multipolar model of the modern world should be followed. As a counteraction to the geopolitical challenges to the economic security of the Russian Federation in a multipolar world, it is proposed to consider the issues of spatial development as an institutional basis for the formation of a future model of global security.

This article is devoted to the topical issue of the institution of judicial control — ensuring the right to access to justice in the context of digitalization of public relations. According to the analysis of the statistical data of the Judicial Department of the Russian Federation, on the lion’s share of complaints (about 70%) accepted for proceedings, decisions are made to terminate proceedings on various grounds, and only a third of the complaints are decided to satisfy or refuse to satisfy the complaint. The author has analyzed the main reasons for the termination of the proceedings on the complaint, taking into account the existing current judicial practice. The practical significance of the work lies in the availability of proposals for resolving existing problems that are practically oriented towards the judicial system, taking into account the use of modern information technology of the state automated system «Justice» and video conferencing systems. In order to improve judicial control in pre-trial proceedings, the author’s vision of making changes at the legislative level was formulated by amending Part 2 of Art. 125 of the Criminal Procedure Code of the Russian Federation.

The article examines the main challenges to the national security of the Russian Federation in the Arctic region. In particular, the author analyzes the reasons for the behavioral patterns of Russia and the NATO countries in relation to the Arctic through the prism of a realistic paradigm in the theory of international relations. It is the comprehensive approach to the consideration of the Arctic situation that determines the novelty and relevance of the study. In connection with the discovery and development of large mineral deposits, the role of the Arctic region in modern world political processes has increased. Also, since the late 20th – early 21st century, the Arctic has been in the focus of increased attention of international actors due to its geopolitical importance. All this makes it a priority for Russia. The intensification of the economic activity of the Russian Federation in the Arctic, as well as the implementation of such projects as the Northern Sea Route, has become the cause of the growing tensions in the region. The United States and other NATO countries, whose geopolitical interests are affected, are not only strengthening their anti-Russian rhetoric, but also increasing their military presence. In turn, this is perceived by the Russian side as a strategic threat and leads to mirror measures, including the deployment of a military infrastructure and an increase in the number of military exercises. However, despite growing tensions in the Arctic, Russia has consistently demonstrated its readiness for open dialogue and cooperation with its Western partners.

The article presents the results of studying the level of crime in the economic sphere in the country on the basis of official statistical information from Rosstat and the General Prosecutor’s Office of the Russian Federation. Economic crimes are difficult enough to detect, and the scale of latent economic crime is very large. In addition, the complexity of research in this area is due to the lack of precisely defined and unambiguously interpreted terms: “crimes in economic sphere”, “economic crimes”, “crime in economic field” or “crimes in the field of economic activity”. Summarizing the experience of theoretical and empirical research in this area, the author identifies three approaches to the interpretation of the concept of “economic crime”: legislative (based on the provisions of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation), departmental and research. The consequences of economic crimes inflict irreparable harm on economic entities, society, the state as a whole, and undermine national security. The systematization of statistical data and the research carried out over a long period of time made it possible to identify the main trends in the situation from the standpoint of criminalization and decriminalization of the Russian economy, as well as to identify regions with an increased level of economic crime. The criminological analysis of crime in the sphere of economic activity has shown that there is an increase in negative trends, and with the development of the economy, it is necessary to strengthen activities to suppress economic crime. The statistical analysis of empirical data and monographic analysis made it possible to determine the most effective, in the author’s opinion, directions of combating economic crime in the modern world.

The article studies the challenges faced by the judicial branch of the Russian Federation. The avalanche of legal cases has reduced the quality of judicial acts and undermined the objective resolution of legal conflicts. In 2018, the Russian legislator attempted to reform judicial proceedings and introduced extrajudicial proceedings but there are still many unresolved issues that will be addressed in this article. The authors believe that the problems experienced by the judicial branch are caused by the imperfection of the current legislation, as well as economic and political grounds. Without dwelling on political foundations, the article reveals economic and legal causes of such problems. The authors used the methods of synthesis, comparative, structural-functional and statistical analysis, as well as interviewing. The study aims at determining negative causes that delay court hearings and result in unlawful and unjustified judicial acts. The authors have revealed causes for the unsatisfactory performance of the judicial branch in the Russian Federation and proposed certain ways to address these causes. They have also drawn the following conclusion: the separation of powers into three branches (the legislative, executive and judicial branches) in the modern world is outdated since the fourth power has already emerged in many states. Sometimes the so-called presidential branch becomes superior to the first two types and affects the judicial one.

Growing complexity of the modern world order calls for the search for strategic stability in order to prevent a new global military clash. In view of recent political events, Russia and China have strengthened their cooperation, creating a strategic stability dyad in contrast to the United States and other Western countries. However, the strategic stability of the Russian Federation and the People’s Republic of China is not fully beneficial for Russia due to the peculiarity of the Chinese strategic culture, which is cinocentric. The absence of Russian strategic culture eliminates the equality of the two countries and pushes Russia to submit and mimic China. The author offers her vision of balancing the two forces. The first is the legal basis, which is to update the bilateral agreement between Russia and China with an effort to strengthen the positions and advantages of the Russian side. The second is the development of Russian strategic thinking and, as a result, the emergence of national strategic culture that will contribute to the formation of an adequate foreign policy course of the Russian Federation in the new world stability.
