В статье рассмотрены вопросы безопасности государства, связанные с проживанием лиц на исконной территории, которая признана особо охраняемой природной территорией. Проанализированы законы, действующие в Российской Федерации, выявлены проблемы, связанные с отсутствием нормальной регламентации жизни и деятельности лиц, проживающих на землях своих предков, которые были отнесены к категории земель, особо охраняемых государством. Обозначены особенности проживания на таких территориях лиц, отнесенных к коренным малочисленным народам России. Одновременно прослежена связь между вопросами национальной безопасности и ограничением права человека проживать и осуществлять необходимую для своей жизни деятельность на исконной территории. В целях соблюдения установленных принципов безопасности государства, включая экологическую безопасность, а также для соблюдения прав лиц, проживающих на особо охраняемых природных территориях, в статье сформулированы предложения по внесению изменений в федеральные законы «Об особо охраняемых природных территориях» и «Об охране озера Байкал». The article deals with the issues of state security related to the residence of individuals in the ancestral territory, which is recognized as a specially protected natural territory. The article analyzes the laws in force in the Russian Federation and identifies problems related to the lack of normal regulation of the life and activities of people living on the lands of their ancestors, which were classified as lands specially protected by the state. The features of residence in such territories of persons classified as indigenous small-numbered peoples of Russia are indicated. At the same time, there is a link between national security issues and restrictions on the right of a person to live and carry out activities necessary for their life on the ancestral territory. In order to comply with the established principles of state security, including environmental safety, as well as to respect the rights of persons living in specially protected natural territories, the article contains proposals for amendments to the Federal laws "On specially protected natural territories" and "on the protection of lake Baikal".

The paper is devoted to the study of theoretical problems of legal provision of ecological, biosphere and genetic security in the system of national security of the Russian Federation. It is noted that from the legal point of view the process of «legitimization» of the term (concept) of environmental safety has been successfully completed. This term is widely used in legislation and law enforcement practice, however, the term «environmental safety» still does not have a pronounced context, distinguishable, for example, from the terms «environmental protection», «environmental risk», «sustainable development». If there is a legitimate (conservative) understanding of environmental safety, there is still no modern legal and clear, unambiguous and essential content of the concept of «safety» (including genetic, biological, biosphere, evolutionary and other currently relevant types of safety). Attempts to define safety (along with vulnerability) through threats, damages, stability, losses, have the right to exist, but do not give adequate and substantial sense. Based on the analysis of the current legislation and strategic planning documents, it is concluded that new theoretical and methodological approaches to the understanding of both the basic concept of «safety» and the concept of «environmental safety» are required. According to the authors, due to the emergence of new global challenges and threats (genetic, biosphere, biological, climatic, etc.) in a specific law it is advisable to revise the underlying definition of environmental safety, stressing its specificity. It is important to form the conceptual framework, including the definition and assessment of threats, risks; to select standards and methods of evaluation, classification of threats, their records; to provide for the variability of action of state authorities and local self-government in case of security threats and also the mechanism of participation of citizens and public associations in environmental decision-making on issues of environmental safety.

The subject. The evolution of regulation of prosecutor’s activity in Russian Constitution as well as the role of Prosecutor's Office in provision of national security and integrity are being considered.The purpose of the article is to confirm or disprove hypothesis that the preservation of the Prosecutor's Office made it possible to prevent the destruction of the Russian Federation and protect the country's security from significant threats.The methodology. The authors use a dialectical method as well as analysis and synthesis. An important role is given to formal legal interpretation of Russian Constitution and legal acts.The main results, scope of application. The question of who saved the Russian Prosecutor's Office from the attempt to liquidate it in the autumn of 1993 is being covered in detail. There was not even a mention of the Prosecutor's Office in the draft Constitution of the Russian Federation. The Prosecutor's Office was supposed to be replaced by the institution of authorized representatives of the President in the constituent entities of the Russian Federation. Chapter 7 of the Russian Constitution was called "Judicial Power" until 2014, and it lacked the word "prosecutor's office", which caused a lot of bewilderment in the scientific and educational literature and turned the content of Chapter 7 into a kind of mystery. The article reveals the role of Alexander I. Kazannik in preserving the Russian Prosecutor's Office. The authors of the article name the main threats to state security: duplication of the powers of the federal government and the lack of effective legal guarantees of their responsibility, asymmetry of Russian federalism. Asymmetry leads to uneven implementation of citizens' rights and freedoms and distrust of power. The criteria for assessing the scientific activities of universities established in 2013 also pose a threat to state security.Conclusions. President Vladimir Putin has preserved the integrity and sovereignty of Russia, enforced the principle of the supremacy of federal law and strengthens Russia's security with the help of the Prosecutor's Office. The authors propose measures to strengthen Russia's security: (1) introduce a competitive selection procedure for the post of Prosecutor General of the Russian Federation with the participation of civil society institutions, which would have the right to present candidates to the Federation Council; (2) adopt a federal law on the Administration of the President of the Russian Federation to avoid duplication of powers with the Russian Government and other authorities; (3) change the criteria for assessing the scientific activity of universities, established by the Ministry of Science of the Russian Federation.

Russian legislation has incorporated strategic documents in the sphere of security - the Strategy of National Security of the Russian Federation and the Concept of Public Security of the Russian Federation, - which has rendered the research of criminological security of a person, society and the state especially urgent. The interests of a person connected with ensuring his/her criminological security are often viewed in modern research through the prism of the interests of the state and the society in general. However, the authors believe that the criminological security of a person has a dual nature and combines the elements of both individual and common interests in the sphere of ensuring national security. The criminological security of a person should be given a legal form, and the authors support the idea that a person has a right to the protection of his/her vital interests against the unlawful infringements and other negative factors of criminogenic character, which should be provided through the law enforcement activities. The right of a person to criminological security, although absent from the list of constitutional rights and freedoms, has a distinct natural law, fundamental character, so the state should create such conditions that make it possible to predict, minimize, prevent and eliminate criminogenic threats, and this right should act as a legal guarantor of fulfilling other constitutional rights and freedoms. In this connection, the authors insist that it is possible and necessary to recognize the right of an individual for criminological security at the legislative level; this rights contents are unique compared to other fundamental rights and should be duly guaranteed by the state. If the criminological security of a person is given a legal form, this will make it possible to strike a balance between the interests of an individual, the society and the state in the ensurance of national security and its specific types.

The article examines individual issues of state security through the prism of the effectiveness of public administration in the conditions of the spread of a new coronavirus infection (COVID-19) in Russia in 2020. The article analyzes the norms of Federal laws, according to which it is necessary to take measures to pro-tect the population from natural and man-made emergencies, including the spread of diseases that pose a danger to others. The decisions of the chief state sanitary doctors of the Russian Federation and the subjects of Russia that restrict the rights and freedoms of a person and citizen without having legal grounds for this are subjected to critical reflection. The article formulates conclusions that should help to improve the efficiency of public administration, which, in turn, will not reduce the level of personal protection, that is, to maintain national security at the proper level.

The exponentially increasing economic activity associated with the active use of natural resources, which is specific to the Russian Federation, in addition to the real economic benefit, simultaneously entails adverse consequences, the scale of which can objectively be regarded as another destructive element of the threat to the national security of the Russian Federation. In the context of implementing multiple state social programs aimed at improving living, working and demographic conditions, the issues of ensuring favorable environmental conditions should receive due attention from researchers, politicians, and law enforcement practitioners.

The subject of this research is the practices of advanced legal regulation of the constituent entities of the Russian Federation on the example of the sphere of corruption prevention. Examination of the regional legislative practices is of particular interest within the framework of implementation of the single state policy in the area of corruption prevention and development of anti-corruption legislation. The selected topic also reflects general interest for the assessment of advanced legal regulation of the constituent entities of the Russian Federation as a whole at the current stage. The goal of this research is to develop proposals on improving anti-corruption regulation on the federal level based on the regional anti-corruption practices, using the formal-legal, systematic, and comparative methods. The conducted analysis allows assessing the regional lawmaking practices, as well as the legislation on corruption prevention. The regional practices are aimed at unification of anti-corruption regulation on the regional and municipal levels, as well as filling the gaps caused by imperfection of the federal legal regulation. The constituent entities of the Russian Federation use the right to advanced legal regulation conservatively, although they have such opportunity in for synchronization of legal regulation on the regional and federal levels. This substantiates the need for addressing these issues in the federal laws. The introduction of anti-corruption restrictions, mechanisms of compliance thereof, and liability for their violation (noncompliance) should be established by the federal laws. The author believes that the considered in the article regional practices deserve support and reflection in the federal laws.

The paper is devoted to the study of the institution of constitutional and legal responsibility of the Government before the Parliament in Russia at the present time. In connection with the implementation of the Constitutional Reform in 2020, the author notes that the legislator has taken the path of strengthening the role and importance of the Parliament in terms of monitoring the activities of the Government. Nevertheless, the main drawback of the current legislation is still the lack of real sanctions that the Russian Parliament can apply independently in relation to the Russian Government or its individual members. Therefore, the author proposes a number of new sanctions, as well as a number of measures aimed at improving the existing mechanisms for applying sanctions of constitutional responsibility. In particular, it is proposed to introduce the right of the State Duma of the Russian Federation to present its own nominees for vacant positions in the Government, the approval of which is under the authority of the State Duma of the Russian Federation, to enable the State Duma to independently release individual members of the Government from positions approved by it. In addition, it is proposed to improve the procedure for expressing a vote of no confidence in the Government by the State Duma, namely, to introduce the obligation of the President of the Russian Federation to dismiss the Government of the Russian Federation in the event that the State Duma re-expresses no confidence in the Government within three months. It is also proposed to increase the role of the Council of Federation of the Russian Federation by introducing the power of this body not only to consult with the President of the Russian Federation, but to approve the corresponding candidacies of federal ministers proposed to this body by the President of the Russian Federation. The author notes that the proposed improvement measures will increase the effectiveness of the implementation of a number of federal laws regulating the parliamentary responsibility of the Government of the Russian Federation.

Moreover, the author explains the necessity of environmental education for the implementation of the environmental security in Russia in terms of the sustainable development. The author points out that if the systems of nature and the appropriate quality of the environment remain in a proper balance, the sustainable development in the Russian Federation, the quality of life and health of its population, as well as national security will be ensured. The fact, that the National Security Strategy of the Russian Federation includes the issue of environmental safety and defines it as a safeguard of the sustainable development in the society and favorable living conditions, is a reflection of such understandings.
