In modern Russia, the electoral PR practices make up a significant share in the national public relations structure but have not been systematically studied until now. The directions of communication activities, the object-subject area, as well as the problems of genesis, which is the basis of research in each subject area, have not been systematically studied yet. The research problem is determined by the lack of sufficient novelty and specificity of empirical material, the lack of significant theoretical and methodological foundations and concepts. For the first time in the Russian scientific discourse, the paper presents the definition of electoral PR as a communication process and determines the features of its genesis from the late 1980s to 2014 in the Russian public relations formation context. On the basis of the structural-functional and model approaches, the characteristics, structure, models, messages, functions, and parameters of electoral PR institutionalization are fixed. For the first time, the paper presents the elements, the new subjects of the electoral PR communication models in the Russian Federation. The proposed author's PR periodization methodology is relevant for the electoral public relations periodization as well. The legal regulation of the electoral process as one of the basic conditions for the transformation and periodization of electoral PR is mentioned. The revealed characteristics of the genesis of Russian electoral PR make it possible to record the incompleteness of the process of its institutionalization by the mid-2010s. The presented methodological grounds for studying elective public relations seem to be basic for further research in this area.

The research object is the migration processes not only causing problems with law enforcement, connected with the investigation and solution of crimes committed by foreign citizens, but also require legislative and theoretical interpretation of particular provisions of legal acts. The research subject is the modern view of the criminal science on the legal regulation of migration processes (based on the case study of the legislation of the Russian Federation). Special attention is given to the purpose of the research which is the necessity to define and study the collision aspects in the field of migration legislation determining the need for the formation of a forensic technique of the investigation of crimes committed by foreign citizens. The author arrives at the following conclusions: the comprehensive analysis of the legal fundamentals of migration legislation helps to find out that practically each legal source contains the gaps not regulated by the legislation and requiring a detailed approach to the reconsideration, amending, or cancelation of the latter; no legal act contains the definition “illegal migration”; the proven lack of the category “migration safety” in the migration legislation, which is becoming more and more required year by year not only from the viewpoint of law enforcement, but in some collision aspects on the part of a legislator; the study of the sign of illegality in terms of its detection by means of a similar idea of an unresolved case. The special contribution of the author is the attempt to consider the author’s position on the category “crimes committed by foreign citizens” from the viewpoint of the criminal science. The author points at the importance and acceptance of the introduction of a new method - information frame modeling  which consists in in-depth development of particular structures, i.e. information is presented in basic standard processes and actions typical for a particular research subject area. The scientific novelty of the research consists in the author’s interpretation of the definition of “crimes committed by foreign citizens” and formulation of the categories of “migration safety”, “unresolved case” and “organization of illegal residency in the Russian Federation”.

The paper analyzes the provisions of the Federal Law of July 31, 2020, № 259-FZ “On Digital Financial Assets, Digital Currency and Amendments to Certain Legislative Acts of the Russian Federation” concerning the legal regulation of circulation of digital currencies. The author elucidates legal definitions of such concepts as “digital currency”, “organization of digital currency issuance”, “digital currency issuance”, “organization of circulation of digital currency” and focuses on their shortcomings. The paper also highlights the features of digital currencies, describes types of transactions with this financial instrument, outlines the circle of subjects of relations arising in the process of circulation of digital currencies. In general, it must be recognized that Law No. 259-FZ failed toresult in the creation of a comprehensive system of legal regulation of circulation of digital currencies, its provisions are piecemeal and sometimes controversial in nature. At the same time, the legal act under consideration is of fundamental importance because, for the first time at the legislative level, it has enshrined the rules governing public relations that are being formed in the process of circulation of digital currencies.

В данной лекции содержится теоретико-практическая характеристика организации и деятельности Следственного комитета Российской Федерации в различных сферах правового регулирования общественных отношений. Автор считает весьма позитивным разделение функций прокурорского надзора и производства следствия, что позволило достигнуть необходимого баланса полномочий. Это состояние весьма эффективно отразилось на системе защиты прав и интересов личности на стадии досудебного производства. В целом такая глобальная реорганизация следственных органов проведена впервые. Исторически идея создания «независимого следствия» возникла еще во времена императора Петра Великого, когда была сформулирована концепция вневедомственного предварительного следствия, а реализована она была только в XXI веке. This lecture contains a theoretical and practical description of the organization and activities of the Investigative Committee of the Russian Federation in various spheres of legal regulation of public relations. The author considers the separation of the functions of prosecutor's supervision and investigation proceedings to be very positive, which made it possible to achieve the neces- sary balance of powers. This condition was very effectively reflected in the system of protecting the rights and interests of the individual at the stage of pre-trial proceedings. In general, this is the first time such a global reorganization of the investigative bodies has been carried out. Historically, the idea of creating an "independent investigation" arose back in the days of Emperor Peter the Great, when the concept of a nondepartmental preliminary investigation was formulated, and it was realized only in the 21st century.

For the first time in Ukraine, the definition of «political advertising» is reflected in the Law of Ukraine «On Elections of People’s Deputies», so far only on the basis of the definition of «advertising» in the Law of Ukraine «On Advertising» it was possible to qualify political advertising as any information about political actors, political parties, designed to raise awareness of their activities. The mechanism of legal regulation of political advertising involves the development and adoption of national laws and regulations governing public relations arising in the process of production, placement, distribution of political advertising, because in this case may affect the interests of society and the state as a whole. Today the issue of political advertising is regulated by several legal acts, in particular in Article 1 of the Law of Ukraine «On Advertising» provides only the definition of such advertising without details, the Law of Ukraine «On Local Elections», the Law of Ukraine «On Elections of Deputies of Ukraine», the Electoral Code Ukraine’s norms stipulate the peculiarities of campaigning in the form of political advertising, some restrictions on campaigning, etc. Therefore, the legislation should be characterized by the dispersion of norms on such advertising and inconsistency in the definition of «campaigning» and «political advertising. Therefore, it is suggested to get acquainted in detail with such a phenomenon as political advertising. The article focuses on the existence in the literature of different approaches to the definition of «political advertising» of its essence, considers the distinction between «political advertising» and «election campaigning», as well as analyzes current legislation and the current state of the legal regulation of this type of advertising

The interest in digital development and the specifics of its legal regulation does not practically affect the problems of applying the provisions of Chapter 28 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation and the qualifications of acts falling under the definition of «cybercrimes against property» and Art. 272 and Art. 273 in particular. Analyzing a judicial decision, the author on a practical example reveals the main qualification problems that currently exist in the judicial practice. The author states that the outdated and overly detailed definition «computer information» which is given in the note to Art. 272 of the Criminal Code, leads to the fact that the rules of law, in which this term is included, are applied erroneously. Considering how the perception of the meaning of dispositions of Art. 272, 273 and 159.6 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation, in cases of committing a crime in a virtual dimension, the author reveals the interdependence of the technical component of the subject of the crime and the place of its commission with the legal regulation of protected public relations and their external perception by the law enforcer. The article offers recommendations on the maximum elimination of possible errors in qualifications and shows on specific examples which particular signs and elements in the mechanism of a specific act affect the formation of erroneous law enforcement practice.

Introduction. The lack of a coherent systemology law does not enable the use of evidence-based formalization to solve the basic theoretical problems of law interpretation and enforcement. The development of an appropriate formal-theoretical apparatus is possible on the basis of a productive systemological concept. The justification of this concept is based on the study of philosophical bases and fundamental principles (integrity, dynamic equilibrium, feedback, etc.) and the use of logical and linguistic methods of problem-oriented system approach. Theoretical Basis. Methods. The conceptual and logical modeling of legal ergasystems, the systems analysis and resolution of the theory-applied base of technology of two-tier legal regulation; the synthesis and modification of private scientific results of the author published in 2000–2019, with copyright in the author’s scientific works and educational publications. Results. The contemporary conceptual variant of combined “ICS”-approach (“information, cybernetic and synergetic”) as a general methodology of analysis and optimization of legal ergasystems, as characterized by the following conditions: the substantiation of the appropriate three-part set of methodological research principles, corresponding to the triple-aspect physical nature of the study of complex legal systems as ergasystems; the clarification of the conceptual and logical model of the legal ergasystem taking into account the fundamental feedback principle; the definition of the law of necessary diversity of William R. Ashby is justified and corresponding conditions of realize of effective technology of two-level (normative and individual) legal regulation; the definition of basic concepts and methodological principles of modern systemology of legal regulation; the justification of the functional organization of the Invariant Rational Control Loop. Discussion and Conclusion. A developed conceptual object-oriented version of combined “ICS”-approach for analysis and optimization of legal ergasystems is a methodological basis for the development of a working formal-theoretical apparatus of legal regulation systemology. This will formalize the decisions of the main theoretical problems of law interpretation and enforcement, as well as developing and implementing special information and legal technologies based on the concept of information and functional databases and knowledge. This will in turn ensure the information increases the effectiveness of the system of legal regulation of public relations as an information and cybernetic system subject to the subjective organizing process of human activity and the objective synergetic processes of disorganization.
