Based on the analysis of a significant array of historical facts, normative legal acts and legal positions of domestic and foreign scientists, the article assesses the Nuremberg Principles in the Tokyo and Khabarovsk process of Japanese war criminals. It is confirmed that it was within the framework of the Khabarovsk process that Soviet prosecutors and investigators first established and investigated indisputable evidence of the criminal activities of Japanese militarists, sanctioned by the emperor, for the development and use of weapons of mass destruction (bacteriological weapons) during the battles on Khalkhin-Gol, as well as during the war of Japan against China. For the first time, the facts of conducting deadly medical experiments on prisoners of war, whose victims were thousands of people, are presented. The article shows the illegal position of the American military leadership, which was expressed in countering justice, harboring war criminals in exchange for the results of their monstrous research. The results of the Khabarovsk process, which served as the basis for the adoption of international legal documents on the prohibition of the development, production and stockpiling of bacteriological (biological) and toxin, as well as chemical weapons and on their destruction, are studied. It is demonstrated that the principles formulated in the Nuremberg Code have become the basis for many international and national legislative acts in the field of conducting medical research on humans. Their implementation into the legal system of the Russian Federation and subsequent development in the current legislation are traced.

It has rarely been recognized that the Christian writers of the first millennium pursued an ambitious and exciting philosophical project alongside their engagement in the doctrinal controversies of their age. This book offers for the first time a full analysis of this Patristic philosophy. It shows how it took its distinctive shape in the late fourth century and gives an account of its subsequent development until the time of John of Damascus. The book falls into three main parts. The first of them starts from an analysis of the philosophical project underlying the teaching of the Cappadocian fathers, Basil of Caesarea, Gregory of Nyssa, and Gregory of Nazianzus. This philosophy, arguably the first distinctively Christian theory of being, soon becomes near-universally shared in Eastern Christianity. A few decades after the Cappadocians, all sides in the early Christological controversy take its fundamental tenets for granted. Its application to the Christological problem thus appeared inevitable. Yet it created substantial conceptual problems. Parts II and III of the book describe in detail how these problems led to a series of increasingly radical modifications of the Cappadocian philosophy. The chapters of Part II are dedicated to the miaphysite opponents of the Council of Chalcedon, while Part III discusses the defenders of the Council from the early sixth to the eighth centuries. Through this overview, the book reveals this period as one of remarkable philosophical creativity, fecundity, and innovation.

Updated ACR recommendations for the treatment of gout concerning lifestyle are discussed. Factors related to a lifestyle, above all food habits, for many years were of leading importance in the treatment of patients with gout, even after application of effective drugs. The authors of the updated ACR recommendations for the first time offered to reconsider the role of environmental factors in the genesis of gout and objectively assess the possibility of its non-drug treatment. On the one hand, regardless of the activity of the disease, the need for restrictions of the alcohol, purine-rich products and fructose-containing beverages, as well as the decrease of body weight in obese patients and vitamin C usage unviability are confirmed. On the other hand, these recommendations are conditional. Their new version of ACR recommendations is significantly different from both its previous version and other international and national recommendations, including recommendations on the diagnosis and treatment of gout used in the Russian Federation.

Purpose: Harmonization of the Russian Federation legislation with current international recommendations Results: The concept of the radiation safety system has been significantly modified by recommendations of ICRP (2007) and IAEA (2014). An analysis of existing international regulatory framework for radiation safety allowed to identify the main provisions to be implemented in the Russian legal and regulatory framework. It’s showed that the current Federal Law of 09.01.1996 No. 3-FZ «On Radiation Safety of Population» must be ultimately revised to be harmonized with international documents. General approaches to legal regulation of radiation safety should be essentially modified to create a strong relationship between this law and other regulatory and legal documents in force in the Russian Federation. Conclusion: An article-by-article analysis of the current Federal Law of 09.01.1996 No. 3-FZ «On Radiation Safety of Population « showed the need to modify 22 existing articles and add 12 new articles in order to harmonize it with international documents. Given such a large volume of modification it is advisable to pass a new law with simultaneous abolition of the current federal law. A new name has been proposed: Federal Law of the Russian Federation «On Radiation Safety in the Russian Federation». The enactment of the Federal Law of the Russian Federation «On Radiation Safety in the Russian Federation» with the main by-laws approved by the Russian Federation Government – «Radiation Safety Standards» and «Basic Rules for Ensuring Radiation Safety» – will allow to establish an actual regulatory framework for ensuring radiation safety of personnel and population in Russia.

The article is devoted to the results of the research “Personnel of Methodologists of the Central Libraries of the Subjects of the Russian Federation”, conducted by the Center for Research on the Development of Libraries in the Information Society of the Russian State Library in 2017. The article presents the results of one of the aspects of the study related to the problems of education and professional development training of employees of methodical services of the Central Libraries of the Russian Federation. 97,9% employees of the methodical divisions have higher education that demonstrates high educational status of the methodical personnel. At the same time, almost one third of the staff does not have the specialized library training. Non-core education is represented by various disciplines, mainly of humanitarian area. Participants of the research also noted the discrepancy between the education of graduates of library qualification and modern requirements of methodical activities and the great need for continuous professional development training of staff of specialized methodical units. The author studied participation of methodologists in the activities of the professional development system, as well as the topics of these activities. There were almost no training events organized specifically for methodologists, and their participation in the numerous training events was not systematic. The analysis of educational needs of methodologists showed the greatest deficiency of events on legal subjects and organization of methodical activities. The results of the study are important for the subsequent development of the professional training strategy and system of professional development training of the personnel of methodical services.

Epidemiological Situation

Modern constitutional transformations, asserting a “value” legal understanding, actualize theoretical and practical problems of legislative regulation, serve as a prereq- uisite for rethinking the essence, role and significance of law in the life of society, and determine the formulation of a number of issues related, first of all, to the qualitative implementation of novelties. This collection reflects the diversity and depth of scientific discussions of the XV In- ternational school of young legal scholars on the topic “Constitution and modernization of legislation”, which was held by the Institute of legislation and comparative law under the Government of the Russian Federation in cooperation with the International Union of lawyers. In the context of a difficult epidemiological situation related to the spread of corona- virus infection, in order to protect the health of conference participants, the organizing Committee decided to hold the XV School remotely (by correspondence). For the first time, all its scientific events were held online. The participants had a unique opportunity to communicate with the direct developers of amendments to the Constitution of the Russian Federation, present their reports in a new format.
