The article deals with the analysis of the balance of opinion in the newspaper, which is originally realized through editorial and op-ed genres. We analyzed 20 articles from “The Wall Street Journal” and “The New York Times” in the genres of editorial and op-ed about events in Afghanistan in August 2021, which were interpreted differently in mass media due to the role of the White House. The findings prove that in the context of new digital reality the op-ed has lost its original function of conveying alternative positions to the ones stated in the editorial; at the same time newspapers tend to advocate the positions shared by the political parties they have historically developed close relations with: “The Wall Street Journal” - with the Republican Party, “The New York Times” - the Democratic Party.

Abstract Objective This study sheds light on the agenda-setting role of the media during the COVID-19 crisis by examining trends in nursing home (NH) coverage in 4 leading national newspapers—The New York Times, Washington Post, USA Today, and Los Angeles Times. Method Keyword searches of the Nexis Uni database identified 2,039 NH-related articles published from September 2018 to June 2020. Trends in the frequency of NH coverage and its tone (negative) and prominence (average words, daily article count, opinion piece) were examined. Results Findings indicate a dramatic rise in the number of NH articles published in the months following the first COVID-19 case, far exceeding previous levels. NH coverage became considerably more prominent, as the average number of words and daily articles on NHs increased. The proportion of negative articles largely remained consistent, though volume rose dramatically. Weekly analysis revealed acceleration in observed trends within the post-COVID-19 period itself. These trends, visible in all papers, were especially dramatic in The New York Times. Discussion Overall, findings reveal marked growth in the frequency and number of prominent and negative NH articles during the COVID-19 crisis. The increased volume of coverage has implications for the relative saliency of NHs to other issues during the pandemic. The increased prominence of coverage has implications for the perceived importance of addressing pre-existing deficits and the devastating consequences of the pandemic for NHs.

The analysis of the application of the norms of international law in relation to the establishment of the legal status of refugees, their protection, granting of asylum in the Russian legal system is carried out. Conclusions are drawn about the inconsistency of some norms of national law with universal norms. Problems are identified at the term level. The necessity of supplementing the concept of «refugee» with new categories and features, such as armed conflicts in the country of habitual residence, is substantiated. In support of this thesis, an overview of Russian judicial practice is given. It is concluded that from a legal point of view, both at the universal and at the national levels, a very effective system of assistance to refugees has developed. However, in practice, when the need arises to implement such norms, numerous difficulties arise. It is recommended to solve these problems by eliminating the inconsistency of norms at different levels. The 1951 Convention has ceased to meet the needs and realities of the modern world order. The need to revise the entire system of norms in this area, and the implementation of innovations in national laws is revealed. The role of cooperation between the Office of the UN High Commissioner for Refugees and the national departments of the Russian Federation is analyzed, and the significant role of the Agency in improving the legislative framework of the Russian Federation is indicated. It is recommended to develop mandatory rules regarding the procedure for granting refugee status. It is proposed to give more legal force to the New York Declaration adopted in 2016, which fully fills the gaps in this area, but at the moment it is only advisory in nature. The tightening of the rules for granting legal status to refugees as a result of the analysis of current trends in the migration policy of Russia is revealed. It is recommended to find a balance of interests in terms of the ratio of the principles of sovereignty and respect for human rights and freedoms.

The article clarifies the concept of “agricultural holding”, using an approach to assessing the size on the basis of the total revenue of all agricultural organizations within the agricultural holding. It has been revealed that only 100 of the total number of agricultural holdings that were identified can be attributed to large business entities. They comprise about 3% of agricultural organizations in the country, while their share in the proceeds is about 37%. A large share of agricultural holdings — large business subjects under the control of Russian entities operate in one, and under the control of foreign legal entities — in three or more regions of the Russian Federation. Vertical integration within the framework of large agricultural holdings with different schemes for including the stages of processing and sale of products produced in their agricultural organizations allows them to receive advantages. Strengthening the role of large business entities in agriculture puts on the agenda the issue of differentiating approaches to taxation and state support in agriculture, depending on the size of the companies’ agricultural businesses.
