Social support for families with children in the period of coronavirus epidemic and families' need

The purpose of this work is analysis of the social support coverage in Russia during the coronavirus epidemic. The paper also analyzes the impact of the pandemic on the financial situation of families. The work focused on families with children as the poorest category of the Russian population with a lot of social exclusions. The study was based on the data from population survey conducted at the top of the epidemic by the Yuri Levada Analytical Center (LEVADA-CENTER). During the period of isolation caused by the coronavirus epidemic, population significantly suffered from lack of work and reduction of earnings. Families with children lost the possibility to leave children in kindergartens and schools that had a negative effect on the welfare of the population: 35% families reported worsening of the financial situation of their families over the past year. At the same time, more than 40% of the families received social support compensating the negative effect of the coronavirus epidemic. Social support was primarily provided to families with children — there were twice as many recipients of benefits among them then among the entire population. The paper also analyzes the opinion of the population about what measures of the social support they consider the most important and what types of assistance their families need. According to the survey data, the greatest need of the population is for financial support (almost 37% of families). At the same time, the majority of the respondents believe that it is the duty of the state to provide all children with normal living standards. The analysis has shown the importance of the social support of the population and the necessity of raising its efficiency in the difficult period of the coronavirus epidemic.

Problem of Inner Competitiveness in the Process of Additional Educational Programs Introduction at the University

The system of additional professional education is one of the most topical problems in the strategic planning of the university. Currently, the questions of stimulating attraction to the population, financial state of the university, introduction of the system of long-life learning are connected with additional professional education. In the process of additional professional education programs the administration faces the competitiveness between the university’s offices due to the crossing of thematic fields of professional programs. To overcome the problems, the strategy of monopoly in the regulation of the system of additional education in the frame of the university functioning is offered. There is presented a suggestion to form a number of departments in the Center of additional professional education while realizing the given strategy including the following functions aimed at stimulating the teachers’ work and avoiding the similarities between the professional programs: department of additional professional education (is an owner of the programs); coordinating center (including expert analytical center, financial department); office of programs’ construction and promotion (including the department of programs’ “design”, marketing and advertisement department). When cooperating during the departments’ professional activities the following tasks can be solved: the right to initiate the program, to distribute finances, legislative support, methodological basis, search for clients, development and programs combining, development of requirements to the teachers’ competence, digital assistance with the Bot. The solution of the problems is a way to create the conditions to build the system of additional professional education at the university in the context of themes crossing in professional programs and it results in decreasing the competitiveness between the university’s department.

COMPARATIVE ANALYSIS OF SOFTWARES FOR ASSESSMENT AND PREDICTION OF RADIATION SITUATION INDICATORS

This article presents the results of comparative analysis of software tools for assessing and predicting parameters characterizing the radiation situation in the event of a hypothetical emergency at nuclear facilities. To analyze the output parameters and rank the software according to the degree of conservatism, an emergency scenario at the AES-2006 design facility was selected. This scenario is associated with a decrease in the coolant temperature and, as a consequence, a change in reactivity. The results of ranking software tools for use in the activities of the Information and Analytical Center of the Department of Nuclear and Radiation Safety are presented. It has been established that the highest degree of conservatism is embedded in the operational assessment codes (HotSpot and RECASS Express). These tools make it possible to provide quick simplified calculations for the early stage of an accident at a Nuclear Facility and can be recommended for use in assessing and predicting the radiation situation as the first tools. In this case, the status of the assessment of the radiation situation is recommended to be considered preliminary, additional to the main calculations performed, for example, with the JRODOS and RECASS NT design codes, the technical capabilities of which allow assessing the radiation impact, including at significant distances from the source, as in the case of emergency situations, and within the framework of the command and staff exercises.

Franco-Russian relations: What lies ahead?

Franco-Russian relations throughout history have been characterized by ups and downs. Twice in history, our countries were allies – during the First and Second World Wars. At other times, the relationship between them was clouded by tensions and wars. Despite the periodic cooling, the cultural dialogue remained constant. This logic has been preserved in our time. The rapprochement between France and Russia during the rule of J. Chirac was quite unexpected. «Atlantist» N. Sarkozy, who was viewed in the Russian Federation as an adversary, took an active part in resolving the Russian-Georgian conflict, and his Prime Minister F. Fillon was even called a «friend» of V.V. Putin. The presidency of N. Sarkozy ended with the signing of an agreement on the deal of the French aircraft carriers Mistral to Russia. In the presidential campaign of E. Macron, Russia did not occupy an important place. Despite this, V.V. Putin became one of the first heads of state who paid an official visit to France immediately after the election of E. Macron. There are constant contacts between the leaders of the two countries. There is cooperation between the countries in the field of security and the fight against terrorism; there are economic relations; cultural dialogue is developing. However, there are no major breakthroughs and most likely they should not be expected in the near future. In an interview with the director of the French-Russian analytical center «Observo» Arnaud Dubien given to N.Yu. Lapina, the specifics of relations between the two countries and the difficulties that arise along the way are analyzed.
