The relevance of the work is determined by the fact that the right to life belongs to the basic constitutional human rights, therefore, its observance and protection is the duty of the state. Despite its undeniable importance, today the right to life anywhere in the world is not really ensured in sufficient quantities. The constitutional consolidation of the right to life raises a number of issues related to the concept, nature, legislative and practical implementation of this right. It should be noted that various aspects of the human right to life were considered in the scientific works of G.B. Romanovsky, O.G. Selikhova, T.M. Fomichenko, A.B. Borisova, V.A. Ershov and other Russian authors. The aim of the study is to study and comparative analysis of the legal content of the constitutional norm that defines the right to life, to comprehend and identify possible problems of the implementation of this right. To achieve this goal, this article discusses relevant issues of ensuring the right to life, proclaimed by Article 20 of the Constitution of the Russian Federation and Article 27 of the Constitution of Azerbaijan Republic. The results of a comparative analysis of these constitutional norms and the relevant norms of industry law allow us to determine, that there is no contradiction between Article 20 of the Constitution of the Russian Federation and the norms of the criminal legislation of the Russian Federation, which imply the death penalty as an exceptional measure of punishment, because a moratorium has been imposed on the death penalty in the Russian Federation since April 16, 1997. However, after the abolition of the death penalty in the criminal legislation of the Republic of Azerbaijan in 1998, there was a discrepancy between parts II and III of Article 27 of the Constitution of the Republic of Azerbaijan and the criminal legislation of Azerbaijan Republic that requires the introduction of the necessary changes in the content of the analyzed constitutional norm. The value of the work is determined by the fact that the introduction of appropriate changes will contribute to the further improvement of the Constitution of the Republic of Azerbaijan and the effective implementation of the right to life of everyone.

This necessitates dev elopment of modern approaches to optimizing the use of existing railway infrastructure, including by establishing priorities in organizing traffic. The objective of the research was to study the procedure for establishing dynamic priorities for organizing transit of cargo trains. To achieve this goal, a comparative analysis method, special engineering calculation methods associated with organization of train traffic were used. During the study comparative analysis of main characteristics of a number of world railways was carried out. Following clearly defined strategy of railways of the Russian Federation aimed at customer focus, this article provides preliminary research results, the findings of which revealed the expediency of establishing dynamic priorities for cargo trains transit. It is especially important to implement these approaches in the context of an operational change in the train situation in the event of emergency events on the infrastructure and for a possible reduction in the financial losses of consignors and consignees.

The article provides a comparative analysis of the adversarial principle of the parties in the procedural legislation of the Russian Federation and the Republic of Armenia. The author comes to the conclusion that this principle in Russia and Armenia is normatively fixed at different levels and occupies a different place in the system of principles of national law. From the standpoint of dividing the principles of law into sectoral, inter-sectoral and general legal in the Russian Federation, the adversarial principle is inter-sectoral, and in the Republic of Armenia it is a principle of criminal procedural law. From the position of division the principles of law according to the source of consolidation in Russia, the adversarial principle is one of the constitutional principles duplicated in sectoral legislation, and in Armenia this principle is simply sectoral.


The article analyzes the names of newspapers and magazines published in the Republic of Tatarstan (a constituent entity of the Russian Federation) from 1917 to 1991. The research object (hemeronyms) is considered by the authors as an artifact of culture; the authors prove that among all the onyms, hemeronyms seem to be the most dependent on cultural, historical, and ideological factors. Based on the application of the methods of keywords and key meanings, the semantic field of the media onomastic regional space of the studied period is reconstructed. It is shown that the nuclear idea of a semantic field constructed as a result of systematization of empirical material is an idea that can be designated as “building a society of a new formation”. The nuclear idea is revealed in specific key meanings: “struggle” (namely ‘active actions to overcome or achieve something’ and ‘active actions aimed at achieving labor success’), “renewal”, i.e. ‘aimed at building a new socio-economic formation - the communist’, “path”, “collectivization”, “labor as the supreme value”, “guiding the role of the communist party (communists)”. The research results obtained by the authors reflect the specifics of not only the regional (Tatarstan) media onomastic space, but also the whole of Soviet Russia. The algorithm of the study of Russian hemonyms of the Soviet era presented in the work can be extrapolated to the similar material of other national-cultural formations or of the Russian one, but covering other time periods with its own specific worldview dominant.

The article examines functioning of the Russian language outside the Russian Federation: the peculiarities of the «national» Russian language in the Republic of Armenia, the concept of this term itself, the significance of using Russian in the media, overlapping national features. The main characteristics of the «national» Russian language outside Russia are considered to be as follows: the language is seen as an «advocate» of necessary national ideas and a real opportunity to transmit national ideas, thoughts, messages and information in a language of international communication. The development of the social institution of the «national language» in the future will largely determine the preservation of national cultural, educational as well as political and economic unity with Russia. We should not forget that professional journalistic activity is, first and foremost, a verbal activity. And the professional culture of journalists depends on how well they master the language. The linguistic features of the Russian-language media in Armenia present a rather broad spectrum of issues possible and relevant for consideration. The national variant is a certain form of adapting the classical literary language to the traditions and cultural values, to the urgent needs of a particular nation, thus becoming a special form of functioning of the language common for the nation.
