Demographic security is an aspect of security, which is defined as a sustainable state of the nation, where natural reproduction and population growth is guaranteed and no violent change of self-awareness and national identity is allowed in any form. A broad understanding of security from the point of view of society is formulated as a state of society in which the risks and threats of existence and development are met systematically, are met in all the elements of society. "Demographic security may be the most important element of national security, as it is linked to the nation's" subject "- the people living in the nation state. Obviously, what is the state of demographic security will, to a great extent, be the state of national security of a country. It could be considered "as a state of society in which it is able to accumulate the reproductive power of the population necessary for preserving the nation, ensuring the preservation and development of national integrity and the national identity of the people and communities living in the state. And each of these theories and formulations could only exist if there were separate "demographic units". The importance of demographic status can be compared to whether a nation will exist or not, with the revival or death of a nation. That is why the demographic problem has real repercussions on the whole development of the state. The declining population leads to a weakening in both political and economic terms. The total depopulation of territories leads to a reduction in the working age population, which would mean lack of staff in the most important development areas - education, medicine, police, army. Prerequisites for the security of each country are its internal stability, the existence of a democratic political system, social protection, a developed economy. National security also depends on relations with neighboring countries, on the objective consideration of geopolitical conditions, on optimal participation in deepening integration processes, security is a function of a number of internal and external factors. State security means the existence of an effective mechanism for the management and coordination of the public groups and political forces, as well as the active institutions for their protection. The mentioned structural elements, interacting with the security environment, form conditionally two components of the national security - internal and external.

The article deals with modern mechanisms for managing social protection of the population by the state and the private sector. From the point of view of forms of state regulation of the sphere of social protection, system indicators usually include the state and dynamics of growth in the standard of living of the population, material goods, services and social guarantees for the poorly provided segments of the population. The main indicator among the above is the state of the consumer market, as one of the main factors in the development of the state. Priority areas of public administration with the use of various forms of social security have been identified. It should be emphasized that, despite the legislative conflicts that exist today in Ukraine, mandatory indexation of the cost of living is established, which is associated with inflation. Various scientists note that although the definition of the cost of living index has a well-established methodology, there are quite a lot of regional features in the structure of consumption. All this is due to restrictions that are included in the consumer basket of goods and different levels of socio-economic development of regions. The analysis of the establishment and periodic review of the minimum consumer budgets of the subsistence minimum and wages of the working population and the need to form state insurance funds for unforeseen circumstances is carried out. Considering in this context the levers of state management of social guarantees of the population, we drew attention to the crisis periods that are associated with the market transformation of the regional economy. In these conditions, there is a need to develop and implement new mechanisms and clusters in the system of socio-economic relations. The components of the mechanisms ofstate regulation ofsocial guarantees of the population are proposed. The deepening of market relations in the process of reforming the system of social protection of the population should be aimed at social well-being.

The article focuses on verbal olfacty representation on the example of phytonym “sage” in the poetic text of Rimma Khaninova “Sage Scent” (2008) and the literary translation by Nikolay and Gala Burlakovs. The comparative analysis of the original and the English translation enables us not only to set the intercultural dialogue but also see the distinctive features of one culture through the prism of another language. The phytonym “sage” in the author’s text has a strong and associative dominance reflecting the underlying peculiarities of the culture of the Kalmyk people. Such floral features of phytonym “sage” as a long-lasting fragrance and color create a lot of additional metaphorical associations. On the figurative level, the scent of sage represents the scent of motherland, freedom, on the emotional level – it is the memory of the native land, a landmark. The national identity is expressed implicitly through positive evaluative characteristics of sage scent. In the poetic translation by N. and G. Burlakovs the main idea and the plot line of the poem remained the same, however, the verbal olfacty representation – the sage scent ― is rendered from the point of view of the people of the Western culture. The emotional and image associations in English stay the same, but they do not reflect the unique feature of the phytonym “sage” for national identity of the Kalmyk people, they lack the dominant ethnic-specific feature of this plant which is the equality to the native land and national language.

The article reveals the social and philosophical views of M.A. Bakunin on the genesis, essence and evolution of the state. At the same time, attention is focused on his interpretation of state power, which is a lack of justice and freedom for the people. The philosopher, in substantiating his point of view, gives a detailed analysis of the philosophical conceptual provisions on the state. M.A. Bakunin, being an anarcho-revolutionary in his philosophical views, substantiates the limited point of view on the issue of the state and its social role, the positions of the representatives of German social democracy and the views of supporters of Marxist philosophy. The article reveals the socio-philosophical positions of the Russian thinker on the issue of essential components that substantiate the need for the evolution of the state and its departure from the historical arena. At the same time, the main regulations that characterize the prospects for the development of the state and its withering away are revealed. Only a social revolution, according to M.A. Bakunin, can lead to the destruction of the state as an organ of violence, and bring the people freedom, equality and the use of social wealth. Purpose of the research: to reveal the social and philosophical positions of M.A. Bakunin on the genesis of the state, its essence and evolution. Conclusions: The state, according to the views of M.A. Bakunin, is in any form of violence against the people, and therefore it must be destroyed through a social revolution. The future structure of society, as an ideal, should be based on justice and freedom of the people, their self-organization.

The work defines goals and objectives of state employment policy at the present stage of economic development characterized by crisis phenomena. The author presents main types of state employment policy and identifies main characteristics and the content of active, passive and moderately passive policy types. The author also carries out the systematization of bodies’ activity of state employment management and highlights the main directions of state employment policy. The article shows the features of the distribution of powers and functions among the employment bodies at Federal, regional and municipal levels. The state employment regulation mechanism is characterized from the point of view of application of different management methods. Economic, organizational, administrative and legislative methods to regulate the employment in a crisis have to adapt to the new conditions. There is a need for improving existing regulatory mechanisms of the labour market and for the development of new ones that meet constantly changing conditions. State involvement should be reflected in the extension of the tools of active employment promotion policy. Special attention should be given to the development of regional target programs to support industry, social protection of the population in the sphere of counteraction to mass redundancies and to ensure sound management of the processes of re-training, reduction of long-term unemployment, the increasing unemployment payouts, and, of course, support small business. This article presents the dynamics of unemployment and the budgetary appropriation for the employment regulation in 2015, which allows to make a conclusion about insufficiency of financing of this direction of state activity and the need to identify hidden reserves to increase the efficiency of the employment management mechanism.

ABSTRACT Indonesia is constitutionally constitutional state and requires the government through its apparatus in the field of State Administration to play a positive active role in all aspects of people's lives to achieve the prosperity of their people. Within this framework, it is not uncommon for a dispute to be caused by actions from the government in the form of irregularities, thus violating the human rights of its citizens. Strictly speaking, these deviations constitute government actions that are detrimental to those affected by the decision, in this case the people. The foregoing raises problems namely; whether any decision of the State Administration or Agency that causes harm to a person or legal entity can be submitted and sued as a dispute to the State Administrative Court and administrative efforts in which the decision can be sued again through the State Administrative Court. In this study the authors use the method of normative law research (normative law research) and by using primary, secondary and tertiary legal materials. Normative legal research examines laws that are conceptualized as the norms or principles that apply in society, and become a reference for each person's behavior. Management and analysis of data is done in a qualitative way that is analyzing library data to produce descriptive data. After conducting discussions on the existing problems, it can be concluded, Each decision of the State Administration Agency or officials that causes harm to civil legal persons or entities can be submitted and sued as a dispute to the State Administrative Court. Its relative competency is related to the place of residence or jurisdiction of the court itself, as well as the parties to the dispute. Whereas the absolute competence can be seen from the point of view of the basis of disputes, which is due to the issuance of written provisions by the State Administrative Court or Agency. Administrative efforts in resolving state administrative disputes are known as administrative channels or efforts, whether in the form of administrative appeals or objections. In accordance with the basis of our country's philosophy of Pancasila, then the state administrative disputes should be resolved as far as possible through administrative efforts, which are more deliberative in reaching consensus. But if all available administrative efforts have been used, it turns out that the disputing parties remain unsatisfied, then the matter is raised and sued through the State Administrative Court.

The article is dedicated to the mechanism for protecting the Satversme [Constitution] of the Republic of Latvia (hereafter – the Satversme) – procedure for amending it and elements thereof – restrictions (quotas of participation, approval, readings, etc.), examining the amendments to the general and basic articles, as well as the theory of core. The parliament and the people may amend the Satversme in a referendum, therefore the article also turns briefly to the institution of the people’s vote or plebiscite or referendum (Latin – referendum). The article aims to elucidate the effectiveness of the procedure for amending the Satversme and provide answers to the following questions: (1) Whether the procedure for amending the Satversme ensures protection of the national constitutional order on sufficient level and does not permit introduction into the Satversme of ill-considered or antidemocratic proposals; (2) Whether the legislator, aiming to ensure constitutional stability, has not set the exaggeratedly high quorum of voters’ participation in the referendum for all articles of the Satversme and whether the mechanism of referendum in Latvia has not become incapable of functioning? In the framework of the article, the author also will try to reach concrete proposals that would improve the procedure for amending the Satversme, would increase citizens’ involvement in the matters of public administration, which, in turn, would reinforce the people’s trust in their State. In considering the proposals, the author will focus also on the issue of national security because amendments to the Satversme and referendums, clearly, may be used as factors for destabilising the State.

The author analyzes the views of the famous philosopher, sociologist and politician Petr Struve, whose ideas have enduring relevance in view of the problems of maintaining state unity and developing both culture and national identity. The main object of this research is Struve’s views on the essence of the state and national culture and on their role in the life of Russia. It is indicated that the position of the thinker presupposed a certain historiosophy – an interpretation of history as a process of development of spiritual culture. The features of Peter Struve’s liberal-conservatism and his understanding of the state as a “collective personality”, possessing a “superintelligent” nature are considered. The philosopher’s approach, which aimed at analyzing the seamless connection between state, culture and nationality is analyzed. The author considers how the thinker interpreted the essence of nationality and nationalism, as well as criticized the radical intelligentsia’s “official nationalism” and “absence of a feeling of national belonging”. She examines the philosopher’s views on the outstanding role of the state in Russian history and his understanding of such “fatal” reasons of its destruction as the insufficient involvement of the cultivated elements of the nobility in the ruling of the state as well as the belated abolition of serfdom law. The author also explains Struve’s views on the slogan of class struggle as decisively contributing to the cultural decomposition of the nation and to undermining the unity of the state. She also addresses the views of P.B. Struve, G.P. Fedotov and S.L. Frank concerning the reasons why the sense of national identity was weak in Russia. She concludes that, according to Struve, one of the reasons for the revolutionary radical upheavals in the country was the fact that the radical intelligentsia sowed in the broad masses of the people the ideological poison of “anti-state rebellion” and the “spirit of Bolshevism”. This contributed to a weak demand for national-state ideals and liberal-conservative ideas.

Since the beginning of the 90s of the last century, significant structural changes in the country’s economy, the transition from a planned economy to a market economy, which was accompanied by a deterioration in the socioeconomic status of the population, took place in Russia. This adversely affected the health of citizens. The health of the population has progressively worsened, life expectancy has declined, the population has been shrinking at an alarming rate. Since 2006, the dynamics of the main demographic indices in Russia is favorable. There is a tendency to reduce the natural decline in population. Life expectancy indices reflecting the state of health of the population and the death rate increased, reached 71.9 years in the general population in 2016 (among women - 77.1 years, among men - 66.5 years). The demographic situation in Russia is characterized by an aging population. In 2014, the contingent of the older generation (33.8 million - 23.0%) prevailed over the children population (24.7 million - 17.2%) and this ratio is maintained as of January 1, 2017: the population of children is 36 685 thousand people (18.3%), working age population accounts of 83 224 thousand people, the elderly - 36 685 thousand people (25%). The increase in life expectancy is associated with a gain in the incidence and disability of the population, among which leading positions of the disease are occupied by the circulatory disorders, malignant neoplasms, diseases of the musculoskeletal system and connective tissue, and a number of infectious diseases. At the same time, the period of life, living with chronic diseases and restrictions in active activity, lengthens. The indices of the morbidity and disability rate of the population are a reflection of both the level of health and the quality of medical and preventive measures, as well as the state of social protection of a person with a health defect. A differentiated approach to the organization of preventive, curative and rehabilitation measures is important, both at the federal and regional and municipal levels of managing the health and social protection system. Health resources of saving technologies should be aimed at realizing an optimistic demographic scenario - an increase in life expectancy with a parallel increase in the number and proportion of years living in conditions of preserved health and activity.
