Введение. Малая проза С. Силина еще недостаточно изучена литературоведами, однако его произведения вызывают интерес среди читателей разных возрастов и могут быть отнесены к двухадресной литературе, т. е. литературе, адресованной как детям, так и взрослым. Анализ произведений писателя, использующего приемы садистских стишков, страшной истории и анекдота, способствует более глубокому осмыслению основных тенденций развития современной российской прозы для детей. Цель – выявить жанровое своеобразие малой прозы С. Силина в соотнесении с фольклорной традицией. Материал и методы. Теоретической базой исследования послужили труды фольклористов Е. М. Мелетинского, Е. Курганова, О. Н. Гречиной, М. В. Осориной и др. Материал исследования – рассказы С. Силина. Результаты и обсуждение. Проведенный анализ позволил выявить характерные особенности малой прозы С. Силина. Писатель использует приемы нескольких фольклорных жанров: легкое отношение персонажей к смерти, гротеск, парадокс, юмористическая концовка, мнимое благополучие финала. Дети и взрослые представлены носителями гипертрофированно усиленных отрицательных качеств. Малая проза писателя адресована как взрослым, так и юным читателям. Заключение. В своем творчестве С. Силин трансформирует жанры городского фольклора: страшных историй, садистских стишков, анекдотов, чтобы заострить проблемы «отцов» и «детей», дать возможность взрослым и детям увидеть друг друга со стороны. К характерным особенностям малой прозы писателя относятся: легкое отношение к смерти, отсутствие катарсиса, абсурдный финал, наделение персонажей гипертрофированными качествами (жестокость, недисциплинированность, непослушание и т. д.). Рассказы чаще всего имеют кольцевую композицию, свидетельствующую о том, что основной конфликт произведения остался неразрешенным. Важную роль играют заглавия: в них содержится основная проблема рассказа. Использование фольклорных жанров позволяет автору донести до своих читателей в привычной с детства игровой форме важные педагогические идеи, а также выявить социальные, общественные и семейные проблемы. Introduction. Sergey Silin’s small prose has not yet been sufficiently researched by literary critics, but it arouses interest among readers of different ages and can be attributed to dual addressed literature. The study of the writer using the techniques of sadistic poems, horror stories and jokes contributes to a deeper understanding of the main trends in modern Russian prose. The purpose of the article is to reveal the genre originality of small prose by Sergey Silin. Material and methods. Theoretical basis for the study were the works of folklorists E. M. Meletinsky, E. Kurganov, O. N. Grechina, M. V. Osorina and others. The research material is short stories and horror stories by S. Silin (“The Fatal Five”, “The Fatal Four”, “Don’t Drown Five Graders!”, “Sambo Lesson”). Result and discussion. The analysis revealed the characteristic features of Silin’s small prose. In his work the author transforms the techniques of urban folklore genres: scary stories, sadistic poems, jokes. Conclusion. S. Silin’s works are dually addressed: not only to children, but also to adults. In his works, the writer uses techniques typical of urban folklore genres – they reflect the cynical attitude to death which is characteristic of sadistic poems; the use of clericalism; the absence of a clear confrontation between good and evil; the division into «good» and «bad» characters; the catharsis is replaced by a humorous ending; the idea of retribution is replaced by a paradoxical ending which emphasizes the immutability of what is happening. The stories most often have a circular composition, indicating that the main conflict of the work remained unresolved.

The article is devoted to the study of modern Russian literature, created on the basis of the classics. On the example of the stories "The Lady with the Dog", "Darling", etc., the secondary texts of G. N. Shcherbakova from the collection of short stories "Yashkin's Children" are considered as variants of "recoding" of "Chekhov's texts". The analysis of some texts from the collection is carried out, the methods and techniques of turning modern texts to classical ones are determined. It was revealed that the integral elements of the context of A. P. Chekhov in the work of the modern writer G. N. Shcherbakova's works are intertextual dialogue, an anachronization of intertextual material. Intertextuality is implemented using various techniques and methods: the reproduction of a classical text in a modern situation, a dialogue with the Chekhov text and its characters, an insert story, borrowing titles, plots, and storytelling methods.

This article is devoted to the analysis of the short story genre in Russian and Uzbek literature of the late 20th and early 21st centuries, in which a subjectivist-open position in attitude to reality acquires the quality of the leading principle organizing its artistic integrity. The article analyzes the whole layer of works with different realization of the triad “author-narrator-character”. These three components of its beginning are connected at one point, the author becomes both the narrator and the protagonist of a literary text. Moreover, either a partial or complete coincidence of the narrator with the author is observed. In such stories, regardless of the object of reflection, the narration is conducted in the first person and is purely subjective. We decided that it was logical to consider them in accordance with one or another specific type of authorship presented. As a result, we have developed a classification of the types of the author’s “Self”, which is represented by introverted, juvenile- retrospective and lyrical types of the author’s “Self” in modern Russian and Uzbek short stories

Mediation technologies are one of the alternative to judicial methods of dispute resolution. Difficulties in the application of this institution, which is practically not used by the parties to the conflict, predetermined the need for its reform, as well as the creation of a whole complex of conciliation procedures, their legislative consolidation and stimulation. The article analyzes the practice of the parties to the dispute to the mediation procedure that existed before the entry into force of the Federal Law of July 26, 2019 No. 197-ФЗ ‘On Amending Certain Legislative Acts of the Russian Federation’, as well as the short stories of the civil procedural law on conciliation procedures in general that can be used after October 25, 2019.

The limited ability of neoclassical "mainstream" to explain deep fundamental shifts in economic structures of the present day world determines the renaissance of alternative schools of economic theory, including Marxism. The article is aimed to show theoretical concepts of modern Russian neomarxism, which has a potential to explain the contradictions of the capitalist globalization, the tendencies of forming new types of socioeconomic relations, of the specific forms of transition economies in the post-socialist countries and basic causes of the birth and collapse of the socialist system.
