The purpose of the research is to present how the carnival element in the regional policy is associated with the legitimating of power. Also made of the current state of the regional political process in some constituent entities of the Russian Federation, characterized by a high degree of carnivalization. As a result, the importance of the practices of the regional elite, resorting to game forms of their own positioning. The legitimacy of the regional power to depend on festive discourse. A routine political process in the constituent entities of the Russia does not evoke public emotions that have a positive effect on the legitimation of power. The demand for the politics of spectacle is also present in municipal political practices in a very dangerous epoch of COVID-19. A social organism that needs emotions, as well as control, does not experience serious transformations. In society penchant for spectacle, as well as the political class in the production of carnival events, there are deep historical roots, as well as the cultural specificity of a particular region. The points out that in the regional political process one can increasingly see accents on festivals. So, the government solves two important problems: the first one is a public request for a show, it is resolved in conditions of a rather unpleasant and unpromising accumulation of negative for the authorities due to the deterioration of the socio-economic situation in general, the second one is the production of the play solves the issues of legitimation regional and municipal authorities.

В статье рассмотрена возможность внесения изменений в лицензионные требования, касающиеся подтверждения квалификации работников, состоящих в штате соискателей лицензии (лицензиатов). Выполнение указанных требований обязательно при намерении осуществлять (осуществлении) деятельность по тушению пожаров в населенных пунктах, на производственных объектах и объектах инфраструктуры, а также деятельность по монтажу, техническому обслуживанию и ремонту средств обеспечения пожарной безопасности зданий и сооружений. Проведен анализ введенных в действие в рамках реализации «регуляторной гильотины» положений о лицензировании видов деятельности в области пожарной безопасности, утвержденных постановлениями Правительства Российской Федерации. Кроме того, с использованием положений нормативных правовых актов Российской Федерации и нормативных документов проанализирован общий механизм формирования системы независимой оценки квалификации, в том числе в области пожарной безопасности, рассмотрены перспективы внесения изменений в лицензионные требования. Сделан вывод о том, что характер прогнозируемых изменений должен соответствовать общему направлению развития Национальной системы квалификаций. В статье исследовано также современное положение дел с формированием профессиональных стандартов в области пожарной безопасности, разработка которых закреплена за Советом по профессиональным квалификациям в области обеспечения безопасности в чрезвычайных ситуациях. The article considers the possibility of amending the licensing requirements regarding the confirmation of the qualifications of permanent employees who are the license applicants (licensees). Fulfillment of the specified requirements is mandatory if it is intended to carry out (implement) fire fighting activities in settlements, at industrial facilities and infrastructure facilities, as well as activities for installation, maintenance and repair of fire safety facilities for buildings and structures. The analysis of regulations on licensing of fire safety activities, approved by the resolutions of the Government of the Russian Federation is carried out. These regulations are implemented as part of realization of “regulatory guillotine”. Furthermore, the general mechanism for formation of the system for independent qualification assessment, including in the field of fire safety is analyzed as well as the prospects for amending licensing requirements were considered. The above mentioned analysis is carried out using the provisions of regulatory legal acts of the Russian Federation and regulatory documents. It is concluded that the nature of predictable changes should correspond to the general direction of development of the unified National qualification system. The article also considers the current state of formation stages of professional standards in the field of fire safety. The development of such standards is assigned to the Council for professional qualifications in the field of safety in emergency situations.

Exchange Rate Intervention

Market reform is advocated in developing countries to improve economic efficiency and prevent privileged groups from obtaining rents from the policy-making process. Yet this prescription fails to address the complex political process that governments are likely to confront when moving toward the market. This study shows how political considerations during President Salinas's administration distorted economic reform in Mexico.During the 1990s Mexican finance policy contradicted the government's declared neoliberal principles. While the banks were reprivatized and deregulated, they were also given a high degree of protection from competition, enabling the new owners to charge excessive interest rates. In addition, the government artificially inflated the value of the currency through exchange-rate intervention. These contradictory policies are best understood as a coherent political response to the electoral vulnerability of the ruling party (PRl) at the end of the 1980s. When viable political opposition threatened the PRl's ability to maintain power, it responded by using financial policies to distribute economic benefits to social groups, particularly business, the middle class, and the poor, whose support was critical for electoral victory.

This note is a response to the criticism of colleagues who expressed their opinion about the publication: Razumov V.I., Orekhovsky P.A. Carnival Time: Russian Higher Education and Science in the Postmodern Era // Ideas and Ideals. – 2020. – Vol. 12, N 3, pt. 1. – P. 77–94. The article received ten different responses, including both agreements with some of the theses, and objections, as well as alternative proposals. The works represent a wide scientific geography from Abakan to Moscow, although the bulk of the reviews came from Novosibirsk. The authors represent various humanitarian specialties. An analysis of the works published in Ideas and Ideals allows us to conclude that the reforms of science and education undertaken by the Government of the Russian Federation are alarming. At the same time, attention is drawn to both dissatisfaction with the current state of affairs and a wide range of ideas about what strategy for the development of science and education is required in modern Russia. Similarly, very different positions are presented in relation to postmodernism and its role in changes in science and education. The authors make an attempt to characterize the grounds for the coincidence and difference of the positions of the debaters and authors.

Russian Identity

An analytic approach is designed to link foreign and identity policies reveals policymaker’s the worldviews and beliefs. Identifying a link makes it possible to understand a policy decision that cannot be explained by the rational choice or long-term interest categories. It is obvious that the decisions on annexation of Crimea, the resolution of the armed conflict in the East of Ukraine are difficult to explain only through the lens of geopolitical revanchism of the Russian Federation. The current state of Russian-Ukrainian relations is determined by the conflict of identities. Both Ukraine and the Russian Federation have departed from the logic of the post-Soviet state and are trying to create future-oriented political projects. In the armed conflict, the Ukrainian political project is building on an anti-Russian basis, and its success depends on further distance from Russia. The Russian political class also pursues a policy negativizing the image of a neighboring state, creating narratives about the artificiality of the modern Ukraine’s borders and the extreme weakness of its institutions (failed state). At the same time, it is actively promoting the idea of Ukrainians and Russians are «one people». This «big idea» is placed in official discourse to please the nationalists, does not so much justify the Putin’s actions in Ukraine, but shapes the future Russian policy in the «Ukrainian issue». Resolving identity conflicts will help to shape modern political nations that will define the geographical boundaries of their states. It is important for Ukraine that the Ukrainian political nation can influence the Russians’ perceptions the possible borders of their own state. Key words: identity; foreign policy; political nation; borders; narrative; official discourse; Ukraine; Russian Federation.

Rule Making

Rule-making on the regulation of science is actively developing. Every year, the state authorities adopt an administrative number of acts regulating various aspects of the activities of the scientific community. Often, documents introduce editorial changes, but some of them contain new provisions that significantly change the life of a scientist. For this reason, it is important to always be aware of the current state of the regulatory legal framework on the regulation of science, to understand the agenda of this process. The review contains information on the main regulatory legal acts on the regulation of the scientific and technical sphere for eight months of 2021.

The relevance of the research is determined by the need to assess the domestic tourism at the present stage to solve the strategic problem of balanced development of the Russian Federation. The article assesses the dynamics of the domestic tourism flow by such parameters as the number of people placed in collective accommodation facilities, the number of tours sold, the duration of trips, the dynamics of paid services in the context of the regions of the Russian Federation. The analysis allows us to conclude about the nonuniform distribution of the domestic tourism flow, a high degree of its concentration. The authors emphasize that in order to consolidate measures of targeted support of individual regions, the issues of assessing interregional tourism flows in individual regions are of great importance.  The article is prepared according to the results of studies carried out at the expense of budgetary funds on the government assignment of the Financial University under the Government of the Russian Federation of 2019.
