The experience of implementing the state youth policy on the scale of individual subjects of the country, which has its own regional specifics and ethno-confessional features, is of scientific interest. In this regard, the article examines individual pages of implementing the youth policy in the Chuvash Republic (ChR) in the 1990s – early 2000s on the basis of diverse sources and research literature. Separately, the author focuses on some aspects of educational work, creative self-realization of young people and student self-government. The article provides information on the state policy formation, which is reflected in the adoption of a number of laws and regulations governing its activities. It is noted that in order to directly implement the youth policy on the ground, state and municipal government bodies were created to address the issues of the younger generation. As a result, the Ministry of Education and Youth Policy of the Chuvash Republic became the main authority in this area of work, which became the legal successor of the Ministry of Education of the Chuvash Republic and the State Committee for Youth Affairs of the Republic. As a result, the author comes to the conclusion that in the 1990s – early 2000s, the educational institutions of the republic developed an independent system of work with the student community, which was reflected in the emergence of student councils, trade union committees, clubs, scientific societies. Their main task was to organize leisure activities for young people in order to improve their intellectual and creative level. The developed set of measures in the form of state youth awards of Chuvashia, as well as scholarships for representatives of the youth and students of the Republic for special creative aspiration created conditions for the selection and further creative self-expression of talented young people.

The article analyzes the tendencies of elections to the regional parliaments of Russia on the example of the State Assembly (Il Tumen) of the Republic of Sakha (Yakutia). Local parliaments are called upon to fulfill the function of separating the legislative and executive branches of government. However, in the modern Russian political system, the institution of parliamentarism is poorly developed at the federal and local levels. Regional parliaments have little influence on decisions on financial aspects, often continuing the all-Russian legislative process. The electoral process associated with elections to local legislative assemblies developed based on the logic of the development of the federal electoral system and the development of federal relations. In the 1990s during the period of decentralized federalism, various types of regional regimes with developed party systems took shape. In the 2000s during the period of centralization, the powers of the regions were reduced, which led to the abolition of direct elections of heads of subjects, and the reform of party and electoral systems. By now, a mixed electoral system has been formed according to party lists and the majority system. The party composition of regional parliaments also does not differ from the federal list of Duma factions. The Republic of Sakha (Yakutia) is a national republic, which influences the formation of the local regional elite. There are noticeable tendencies in the interdependence of representatives of the elite of the executive and legislative branches of government, as well as signs of community, family ties. According to the party lists of the party of power “United Russia”, the Head of the Republic and representatives of the upper echelons of the republican government are usually represented. In the elections of 2013 and 2018 four parties, representatives of the small parties “Civic Platform” and “For Women of Russia”, are steadily receiving deputy mandates to the local parliament

Abstract In July 2019, the village of Nizhniy Bestyakh in the Republic of Sakha (Yakutiya), the Russian Far East, was finally able to celebrate the opening of an eagerly awaited railroad passenger connection. Through analysis of rich ethnographic data, this article explores the “state of uncertainty” caused by repeated delays in construction of the railroad prior to this and focuses on the effect of these delays on students of a local transportation college. This college prepares young people for railroad jobs and careers, promising a steady income and a place in the Republic's wider modernization project. The research also reveals how the state of uncertainty led to unforeseen consequences, such as the seeding of doubt among students about their desire to be a part of the Republic's industrialization drive.

Politiskās plānošanas dokumentos tiek atzīts, ka Latvijā samazinās juridiskās izglītības kvalitāte un tiesību zinātņu studiju programmu absolventiem ir vājas zināšanas un prasmes jurisprudencē. 
Lai paaugstinātu juridiskās izglītības kvalitāti, Latvijas Republikas Ministru kabinets 2015. gadā akceptēja rīkojumu par valsts vienotā jurista kvalifikācijas eksāmena ieviešanu 2021. gadā profesionālajās maģistrantūras studiju programmās “Tiesību zinātne”, vienlaikus augstākās izglītības sistēmā likvidējot profesionālās bakalaura studiju programmas un liedzot studējošajiem iespēju iegūt juriskonsulta kvalifikāciju. Augstākās juridiskās izglītības sistēma kopumā tiek pārveidota. Valsts vienotā jurista kvalifikācijas eksāmena ieviešana rada nepieciešamību pārveidot studiju procesu, veikt izmaiņas īstenotajos studiju kursos un papildināt prasības tiesību apakšnozarēs, kurās tiks pārbaudītas studējošo zināšanas vienotā eksāmenā. Political planning documents recognise that quality of legal education is decreasing in Latvia, graduates of law study programmes have poor knowledge and skills in jurisprudence. In order to increase the quality of legal education, the Cabinet of Ministers of the Republic of Latvia in 2015 accepts the order on the introduction of the State Unified Lawyer’s Qualification Exam in 2021 in the professional Master’s study programme “Law Science”. At the same time, the higher education system eliminates professional bachelor study programmes and prevents students from gaining legal counsel. The higher legal education system as a whole is transformed. The introduction of the State Jurisprudence Expert Examination determines the necessity to transform the study process, to make changes in the study courses to be implemented, to supplement the requirements in the sub-branches of law, where students’ knowledge in a single examination will be checked. Currently, it is too early to conclude whether the introduction of a single national lawyers’ qualification examination will increase the quality of legal education, and graduates of legal science study programmes will increase their knowledge and skills in jurisprudence.

This article is based on the European project on confirmation work. It provides a brief description of the theological and ecclesiological background of this project as well as of the empirical studies carried out in this project in nine European countries and summarizes some of the main results. The example of Germany is used for presenting more detailed insights into the practice of confirmation work there as well as the religious attitudes of the confirmands. Given the high participation rates (more than 90% of Protestant youth in the respective age group in Europe versus 59% in the United States), the emphasis on reaching as many young people as possible is seen as a core characteristic of confirmation work in Germany and Europe. In a second step, the author considers confirmation in Europe and in the United States comparatively by identifying and discussing commonalities and differences on the basis of the empirical results from the research on confirmation work in the European and in the American project. One main difference is identified in the emphasis on mentorship (United States) and young volunteers (Europe). The final part of the article has its focus on the question of what confirmation work in the United States and in Europe could possibly learn from each other.
