The article emphasizes that combating illegal (smuggling) movement and / or transportation is one of the priority activities of the state. The statistical reporting of the State Fiscal Service of Ukraine and the State Border Guard Service of Ukraine on counteracting illegal (smuggling) movement and / or transportation is analyzed. It is noted that despite the considerable legal and regulatory framework in the field of combating smuggling and other types of illegal movement and / or transportation across the customs border of Ukraine, the number of cases of offenses in this area is increasing. The absence of sound scientific development of the types and forms of smuggling (export) to the territory (from the territory) of illegal migrants, inventory, narcotic drugs and their precursors, etc. is noted. The special relevance of such studies is emphasized in the context of the visa-free regime and the regimes established during the resolution of the internal armed conflict. The current national legislation in the field of combating illegal (smuggling) movement and / or transportation to the territory (from the territory) of illegal migrants, inventory, narcotics and their precur-sors is analyzed. Some types of illegal (smuggling) movement and / or transportation have been identified and investigated. Emphasis is placed on the classification of legal liability for illegal (smuggling) movement and / or transportation. External detection of smuggling by means of which smuggling is carried out outside customs control or by means of concealment from customs control is designated as a form of illegal (smuggling) movement and / or transportation to the territory (from the territory) of illegal migrants, inventory and their narcotics precursors. The relationship between the form and method of illegal (smuggling) movement and / or transportation has been proved. The conclusion was made about the need to amend the legislation in this area.

The article is dedicated to the normative-legal governing of protection of civil objects and objects of critical infrastructureunder the conditions of an armed conflict, that unconditionally is the key aspect to developing the national system of firmnessand sustainability and of course the survival of the state under the conditions of hybrid threats.It has been determined that the prohibitions that are set by the norms of international humanitarian law on the impossibility toinflict damage on civil objects or objects of critical infrastructure are often violated under the conditions of armed conflict andhybrid attacks, and therefore only prohibitions will turn out to be insufficient to achieve the state of protection for a society fromuncontrolled challenges and threats.It has also been pointed out, that there’s a critical growth of the level of threats not only to the economic, but also to theecological security of Ukraine. The absence of clear assessment of the scale of demolition, the duration of the situation and thecontinuity of the physical demolition of the infrastructure and civil objects on a significant part of the territory of the Donetsk andLuhansk regions do not allow to carry out precise assessment of losses and expenditures for Ukraine. The losses inflicted andcaused by the armed conflict in the Donbass are currently being assessed by Ukraine, UN, USAID and independent experts in adifferent manner.It has been pointed out that in the course of the Antiterrorist operation and the Operation of the United Forces in the east ofUkraine, as an addition to the most frightening phenomenon – the death of people, there’re also thousands of objects ofinfrastructure damaged and destroyed including housing. Thousands of families are left homeless, or with their houses damagedto such an extent that there’s no possibility to live there in a save and regular manner. Additionally, there’re plenty of civil objectsand objects of infrastructure that have been destroyed, the networks of water, heat, gas and electricity supply, as well as objectsthat assure the flow of used water and sewage, roads objects of social and cultural purpose, such as schools, kindergartens,healthcare entities, cultural and historical monuments etc.It has been proven, that the classification of objects of critical infrastructure is to be done with the inclusion of the followingcriteria such as: their importance to carry out the vital functions; the existing threats they could be damaged by; the duration ofactivities for their reconstruction and restoring with additional stress made on the issues of establishing a legislative basis torestore and rebuilt the civil objects and objects of critical infrastructure that have been damaged as a consequence of the armedconflict.

The assumption of this article is that when a state is involved in an international armed conflict it may employ lethal force against combatants of the enemy unless they arehors de combat. Hence, even when it would be feasible to do so, it has no duty to apprehend enemy combatants rather than use force against them. Does this same norm apply in non-international armed conflicts occurring in the territory of a single state (internal conflicts)? The writers argue that the answer is in the negative. Despite the attempt in recent years to narrow the differences between the norms that apply in non-international armed conflicts (NIACs) and international armed conflicts (IACs), there are still significant differences between the two types of armed conflict, which justify the application of different norms in this context. Common Article 3 of the Geneva Conventions refers only to humanitarian norms and does not imply that the norms relating to the conduct of hostilities in IACs apply also in NIACs. While customary international law may allow states to use lethal force in a NIAC in the actual conduct of hostilities, there is no basis for assuming that the norm that ostensibly applies in IACs relating to use of such force outside the context of hostilities applies in NIACs too. The jurisprudence of the International Criminal Tribunal for the former Yugoslavia, which is the main source for the arguments on closing the gap between IACs and NIACs, relates only to humanitarian norms and has never addressed extending the permissive IAC norms of the law of armed conflict (LOAC) to NIACs. Finally, in an internal armed conflict the state has a dual capacity: it must respect and ensure the human rights of all persons subject to its jurisdiction, and it is a party in an armed conflict with some of those persons. In such a situation, the only context in which the state may deviate from regular norms of law enforcement is the actual context of hostilities, in which application of such norms is not feasible. In other contexts, its human rights obligations prevail.

The article is devoted to the formation of the synodal regime of government of the Russian Orthodox Church and related problems in the relationship between secular and spiritual authorities. Attention is paid to the new policy of the state represented by the Synod in relation to the local episcopate. The peculiarities of the organization of the diocesan administration are characterized on the materials of the Nizhny Novgorod region. A brief biography of the local Bishop Pitirim, one of the close associates of Peter I is presented. The results of the analysis of problems in relations between the state and the church in the political sphere are given. A classification of these problems is proposed on the basis of various aspects of interaction between secular and clergy. Special attention is paid to issues related to the status of the Synod and its real possibilities to represent the interests of the clergy. It is shown on regional material that the clergy, under synodal conditions, found themselves in a dependent position on the authorities, both central and local. The author especially dwells on the facts describing the arbitrariness of officials in relation to persons of clergy, interference in their competence on certain issues. It has been proved that the establishment of the Synod and the general bureaucratization during the reign of Peter I changed the nature of church-state relations and acted as prerequisites for the emergence of new difficulties.

When the indigenous peoples’ movement emerged in the 1990s and grew stronger in the wake of reformasi, people formally termed “backward” and “primitive” suddenly emerged as political actors. This article traces the relationship between the state and the idea of the original, sometimes referred to as the autochthonous, sometimes as the indigenous, in Indonesian history and analyses how these relationships are reflected in legislation on land issues, the major concern of recent indigenous movements. In a second step, the article deals with current political strategies of the indigenous movement (AMAN), concluding that the movement is shifting its efforts from the “centre” (national legislation), to the provinces and the margins, a process we term the “local turn” in the indigenous people’s movement in Indonesia. By drawing on the example of Enrekang, South Sulawesi, the contribution shows how peraturan dearah (local regulations) provide a basis for recognition within the margins of the Indonesian nation state.

The phenomenon of ambiguity of the Chinese language is analyzed in the article. It has been proved that in the course of speech communication a word, a phrase, a sentence or even a segment sometimes contains two or more meanings which can be interpreted in two or more ways. The article deals with different types of ambiguity in the speech of the modern Chinese. The classification of ambiguity types has been studied. By studying the types of one can see the relationship between ambiguity and phonetics, content, grammar as well as pragmatism. The ambiguity caused by the pronunciation and the meaning of the word can be explained by the fact that in ancient times the Chinese used limited material to determine the broad content range in the writing of Chinese characters, which inevitably caused duplication and ambiguity of their meaning. The relationship between linguistic forms and the content alongside with the state of semantic relations in grammatical research have been analyzed in the article; some other linguistic issues that will contribute to the further study of theories and methods of grammatical research have been examined. Due to the constant changes happening within the Chinese language, there are many similar words as well as homophones (the same phonetic expression which expresses different meanings). The conditions causing ambiguity in communication: as soon as the text appears, the ambiguity disappears. Some examples that often confuse foreigners who study the Chinese language have been presented in the article; the designated examples revealing ambiguity have been analysed.

This chapter examines how DEMUS wove interculturality into its feminist human rights work as it sought to address the challenges involved in cases of sexual violence during the internal armed conflict. When the Peruvian Truth and Reconciliation Committee (PTRC) finished its mandate to research the causes and consequences of the internal armed conflict, it submitted the final report with recommendations for reform and reparations to Peruvian President Alejandro Toledo and passed forty-seven human rights cases to the state prosecutor. Women who decided to pursue their cases through Peru's judicial system are currently represented by feminist and human rights organizations. This chapter considers how DEMUS confronted the legacy of colonialism and describes subsequent efforts to rework its project on the Manta and Vilca case of sexual violence given linguistic and sociocultural gaps.
