The article examines the European regulation of the «exit tax» enshrined in the Council of the European Union Directive No. 2016/1164 of July 12, 2016. The situations in which the «exit tax» is levied are analyzed, the procedure for determining the tax base, the procedure for the payment of tax, the possibility of presenting a deferral of tax, cases in which the tax is to be paid immediately in full, the problematic issues of the practical application of the Directive with regard to the «exit tax» are identified. The practice of implementing the provisions of the Directive about «exit tax» in Luxembourg is examined, as well as the specifics of the implementation of the Directive into national legislation on the example of Ireland’s experience. It is proposed to establish an «exit tax» in the Russian Federation as an additional source of budget revenues in the face of capital outflows and a pandemic of coronavirus infection. It is proposed to take a balanced approach in establishing an «exit tax» in order to maintain the balance of private and public interests. The establishment of a minimum value threshold will not prevent the movement of small assets when the state obtains the right to tax large assets when they move outside the Russian Federation.

The article is devoted to the issue of achieving balance between private and public interests in arbitration disputes. The author notes that arbitration proceedings as one of the alternative forms of civil rights protection, guarantee the realization by the parties of the right to freedom of contracts and the right to judicial protection in a voluntarily elected procedural form. The author draws attention to the fact that a legislator can impose certain restrictions, based on the need to ensure balance between private and public interests depending on the object of the dispute, its social importance, conditions of civil circulation, legal culture and development of the national social and economic system. The article contains proposals for amendments and additions to the new Federal Law “On Arbitration (Arbitration Proceedings) in the Russian Federation”. The author concludes that the new task of legal regulation is the creation of favorable legal environment for the functioning of arbitration courts which being an institute of civil society, will contribute to more effective functioning of national economy under the conditions of a civilized market, implementation of stability in economy management and attractiveness of the jurisdiction of the Russian Federation as a venue to conduct arbitration with participation of foreign countries.

The main provisions of the theory of reflective action of law are considered in the article. The manifestation of law reflexes in modern legal regulation is analysed on the example of land relations. Land, as the basis of life and activity of peoples who live in the territory of the Russian Federation, acts not only as an economic good and a natural resource, but also as the object of a number of property and personal non-property relations connected with them. The institution of public land easement is considered by the authors to be a reflex of law, that is, the restriction of the subjective right of a particular owner of a land plot in the interests of society, the state. The issue of the limitation of the right of land private ownership is raised on the basis of an analysis of legislation and judicial practice. The problem of the limits of the action of public easements simultaneously aimed not only at the normal exercise of all property rights by the land plot owner, but also at preserving the favourable state of the environment, at ensuring the subjective rights of other participants in land legal relations, at the implementation of a single land policy of the state indicated in the context of the development of land legislation of the Russian Federation. The conclusion, that the use of the right reflex construction has a beneficial effect on strengthening legal certainty in the face of imbalances in private and public interests in land law, is made.

The article highlights the role of prof. A.L. Makovsky in the creation of the new Civil Code of the Russian Federation of 1994–2006, as well as in the organization of the practice of its application and the development of the Concept for the Development of Civil Legislation of the Russian Federation in 2009. Special attention is paid to the activities of A.L. Makovsky on the preparation of the Fourth Part of the Civil Code of the Russian Federation and the concept of intellectual rights enshrined by it, opposing the traditional archaic concept of “intellectual property”. The importance of the need to increase the attention of civil law to the issue of protecting the rights and interests of citizens and other weakest participants in civil legal relations in their opposition to the interests of large companies striving to take a privileged position in property turnover is shown. From this point of view, the author substantiates the need for a significant adjustment in the understanding of the balance of private and public interests, which is the basis of civil law regulation.

The legal uncertainty of the right to a favorable environment revealed by science is noted, which impedes its implementation. Two positions of scientists are analyzed — recognizing the right to a favorable environment as a subjective right and as a legitimate interest. As the right to a favorable environment is proclaimed in the Constitution of the Russian Federation and enshrined in environmental legislation, the author comes to the conclusion about the double legal nature of law. As a subjective right, it is directly enshrined in the Law “On Environmental Protection” and extends to a narrow circle of environmental relations to ensure environmental quality, and as a constitutional one, it expresses public, public interests enshrined in the preambles and principles of laws, in political and legal acts.

It has been revealed that: (1) the evolution of non-judicial forms of consideration of consumer disputes both in the Russian Federation and in the EU will help to increase consumer protection and the accessibility of the exercise of the right to resolve disputes for consumers of different property levels, since the procedures under consideration are free of charge; (2) due to the specifics of disputes with consumers of financial services, the creation for these disputes of a special procedure for consideration by professional specialists of the financial market is justified and should positively affect the quality of consideration of cases; (3) the introduction of non-judicial forms into practice will entail a reduction in the resolution of conflict situations and a decrease in the load on the judicial system; (4) there is still some confusion of dispute settlement procedures in a number of provisions of the bill on the settlement of consumer disputes in electronic commerce in the Russian Federation, which is advisable to eliminate when finalizing the bill.
