Archetypes and imagination in the formation of rural neo-societies: conclusions for the state policy of rural development
Authors:   Poltava State Agrarian Academy 1/3, Skovorody Str., Poltava, 36003, Ukraine, Lozynska T. M.
Published: May 2021

The article contains the results of a study on modelling new communities in rural areas of Ukraine. Modelling considers both the possibility of modernization of archetypes and archaization of the individual imaginary. The research methodology is based on the theoretical work of G. Durand on the structures of the imaginary, used in the study of the transformation of rural communities. The the applied value of the research is determined by the possibility of using the obtained results in the development of state policy of rural development. The initial hypothesis of the study was the assumption that the stratification of modern rural society is based on archetypes (images, myths or schemes), which subconsciously create an idea, crystallize the imaginary and form thinking. Social processes in rural areas were eclectic, mixed with “modern” and “archaic”. It is noted that old archetypes and ideas showed a high ability to survive and adapt to new conditions, demonstrating incredible configurations of a combination of tradition and innovation. Attention is drawn to the fallacy of the dominant notion that market transformations of the economy will contribute to forming an exclusive class of owners. The reality has become the antagonism of relations between owners and non-owners, who have become employees with poorly protected rights. G. Durand attributes a “dramatic myth” to the “night mode” of the structure of representation. It is noted that social gaps, violating the integrity of rural communities, also affected the perception of the individual’s place in the local social environment and his behaviour within the community, based on which 10 social groups of rural communities were modelled. It is concluded that the formation of imaginary and archetypes in rural communities occurs in an environment where the number of strangers is increasing. The polarization of the rural population and the confrontation of relations indicate the destructiveness of social processes in rural areas. Society must create artificial social institutions that will regulate human life, and this seems to be a super difficult task in the context of a variety of archetypes of rural life.
Ivan Bobersky as the creator of the Ukrainian football terminology in Halychyna
Authors:   National University of Kyiv-Mohyla Academy, Protsyk Iryna
Published: May 2021

This article analyzes the football terms proposed for use in the Ukrainian football discourse by a well-known public figure, the founder of the national physical education and sports tradition Ivan Bobers’kyi. Emphasis is placed on the basic approach of Bobers’kyi to the development of the Ukrainian football terminology – the search for specific equivalents to foreign names (se-mantic derivation) and the creation of terms on national grounds (morphological and syntactic word formation), which would be clear to the general public, easily perceived and assimilated. The most important thematic groups of football vocabulary used by Bobers’kyi in his text-book Zabavy i Hry Rukhovi. Chast III. Kopanyi Miach (Entertainments and Moving Games) have been singled out. The content of these groups of names is demonstrated through a series of syno-nyms to outline a special concept at the initial stage of term formation. Also, modern analogues to the football terms of the early 20th century, unknown today to both football fans and profes-sionals and linguists, are presented. It is argued that the football terminology suggested by Bo-bers’kyi in the first Ukrainian football textbook Kopanyi Miach (Football) proved successful in the creation of the names of football concepts on a national basis. In fact, there are more Ukrai-nian names in all the thematic groups of football vocabulary used by the author in this manual than borrowings, barbarisms, and hybrid names found in the text. Bobers’kyi did not copy foot-ball terminology used in other European languages but searched for a verbal definition for foot-ball concepts trying to preserve the spirit of the native language. In an effort to demonstrate the richness of his native language and its word-formation potential, Bobers’kyi coined the Ukrai-nian term for football kopanyi miach (a kicked ball) – a term that most accurately conveys the dy-namics of the football game itself. It is emphasized that Ukrainians owe to Bobers’kyi not only the dissemination of informa-tion about football but also the beginning of the Ukrainian football discourse in the native lan-guage and the creation of football terminology on a national basis. Keywords: football discourse, Ukrainian football terminology, Ivan Bobers’kyi, native terms, loan-words.
Freedom to operate analysis, design and evaluation of expression cassettes that confer tolerance to glyphosate

Published: May 2021

Tolerance to the herbicide glyphosate is the most extended feature in commercial transgenic events released worldwide and it is an example of the successful use of genetic modification to improve weed control in crops. Glyphosate-tolerant genotypes have been developed by multinational corporations using patent- protected technologies. For some of these events, all associated patents have expired and, therefore, have become a good target for the development of herbicide-tolerant agbiogenerics by national research institutions, using local crop varieties. As a first step in this process, we present the design (in silico) of three expression cassettes with the purpose of using them in the transformation of Colombian soybean (Glycine max) varieties to confer them tolerance to glyphosate. We transformed Nicotiana benthamiana as a model to validate the functionality of the expression cassettes and detected the expression of the transgene by RT-PCR. Additionally, a Freedom to Operate analysis of the sequences used in the expression cassettes suggests that their commercial use in Colombia does not infringe third party rights. This analysis must be updated and validated by intellectual property experts prior to commercialization.

Published: May 2021

The concept of the use of composite materials (СM) for the optimal design of an axial fan (AF) for the cooling system of a gas turbine installation (GTI) as part of the Ural gas pumping unit (GPU) is proposed. GPU of the Ural series developed by PJSC “Research and production association ”Iskra” are intended for the reconstruction of existing and equipping newly built workshops of compressor stations (CS) of gas pipelines, booster compressor stations (BCS), and underground gas storages (UGS). GPU depending on power are equipped with gas turbine units (GTU) based on aircraft or ship engines. The types and manufacturers of compressors used are determined by the purpose of the unit and the required characteristics. A weak link in the design of the AF is the high sensitivity of the impeller to impact axial load and the low adaptability of its production and repair. Thus, in the studied axial high-load fan system, the authors proposed a technology for manufacturing impeller vanes from metal and coatings from CM. The design of the AF with a coaxial arrangement of industrial blades has a number of its own characteristics. Fiberglass and non-ferrous metals, aluminum alloys and a brushless electric motor with rolling bearings are widely used in the designed design. In the developed AF design, the blades of its impeller can be oriented at different angles of attack, forming a different range of aerodynamic characteristics. A series of computational experiments was carried out to determine the aerodynamic and strength characteristics of the AF. In accordance with the results of numerical modeling and experimental testing at the stand, the performance of the AF structure was confirmed.

A rapid development of civil aviation and air transportation market is going on in the XXI century, which is a catalyst for the growth of urban and regional economies. At the same time, the negative impact of aviation on the environment is intensifying, especially in the near-aerodrome territories. The ecology of aviation has become the second most important issue highlighted by the International Civil Aviation Organization, giving way to safety only. One of the dominant components of the aviation harmful effects on the environment is the noise created by the aircraft on the ground. The International Civil Aviation Organization is constantly tightening international standards for aircraft noise on the ground, normalizing its level on take-off and landing modes, forcing aircraft manufacturers to develop new aircraft noise reduction technologies. One of the main components of aircraft noise is the noise generated by propulsion systems. To successfully solve the problems of reducing the aircraft engine noise in a given frequency range, it becomes necessary to conduct complex computational and experimental research to evaluate and optimize sound attenuation in model channels. In addition, it is necessary to research the Helmholtz resonator and SAS parameters effect on the impedance, taking into account the acoustic mechanisms laws and non-linear processes of interactions between the noise and the channel walls. Based on the research, it is necessary to develop new effective forms, hybrid layouts and sizes of the SAS resonant cells. In the present work, physical and mathematical models were formulated for predicting the effective acoustic characteristics of cone-shaped resonators in non-linear operating modes. The results of computational and experimental research of cone-shaped sound-absorbing structures samples on an interferometer with a normal sound wave incidence at a sound pressure level of 130 dB are presented. It was revealed that during the joint operation of cone-shaped resonators, the effect of mutual influence on the SAS nonlinear operating modes was not observed. It was found that the combination of a cone-shaped and an inverted cone-shaped resonator leads to a significant increase in broadband in the SAS non-linear operating modes. The acoustic efficiency of coneshaped resonators was experimentally confirmed. The verification of the developed models was carried out.

Ensuring acceptable temperature field non-uniformity at the outlet of the combustion chamber is a very important requirement that determines the reliability and durability of the turbine. The formation of non-uniformity is determined by the nature of the interaction of the secondary air jets with the gas flow in the flame tube and depends on many factors, both structural and operational parameters. In this paper, we propose to evaluate the non-uniformity of the temperature fields at the outlet of the combustion chamber using a mixing coefficient that determines the quality of mixing jets of secondary air with a gas stream in the mixer. Based on the equation of turbulent diffusion during the flow of an annular jet into a limited space, an analytical dependence is obtained in the work that allows one to calculate the mixing process in the combustion chamber. The connection of the mixing process with the formation of temperature fields is established. Based on this, dependences are obtained for calculating the nonuniformity of temperature fields. Their satisfactory agreement with experimental data was shown. The found dependences allow one to analyze the influence of various parameters on the non-uniformity of temperature fields and accelerate the refinement of the combustion chamber by this parameter. The possibility of predicting the effect of various parameters on the unevenness of temperature fields is shown. The presence of the optimal value of the degree of opening of the mixer is confirmed, at which the minimum value of the unevenness of the temperature field at the outlet of the combustion chamber is achieved. Therefore, the analytical relationships found in the work allow optimizing the design of the mixer in the combustion chamber and the distribution of secondary air in it in order to reduce the unevenness of the temperature fields at the outlet of the combustion chamber.

ABSTRACT: Composting and vermicomposting before addition to the soil is a viable alternative to the disposal of cattle manure. However, this residue has been used in the untreated form for seedling production. This study evaluated the use of cattle manure in natura, and the organic composted or vermicomposted variants of cattle manure on substrates used in the production of Eucalyptus urograndis seedlings. The treatments consisted of substrates formulated by mixing the organic fertilizers with washed sand in 20, 40, 60, 80 or 100 (v/v) percentages, compared to a commercial substrate. The E. urograndis seedlings were grown in tubes in a greenhouse and evaluated after 120 days for shoot and root dry weights, plant height, stem diameter, shoot/root ratio, and Dickson quality index. The substrate formulated from a mixture of 80% (v/v) of cattle manure in natura and washed sand allows for better development in Eucalyptus seedlings. Substrate containing 100% bovine manure vermicompost or organic compost produced seedlings with lower quality than in natura bovine manure but superior to the commercial substrate. Due to the health risks associated with use of untreated bovine manure, organic compost and vermicompost are good alternatives for the production of E. urograndis seedlings.

Abstract: Intensive cargo movement in urban areas generates many vehicles in city centers. As a result, there are congestions increase and intensification of freight transport distribution system challenges. To overcome the difficulties, local traffic rules and restrictions for heavy vehicles are established, but they have an impact on carriers and shopkeepers activities, parcel little heard by surveys. The purpose of this paper is to analyze the difficulties in the receipt of goods in Niterói center, under the view of retailers. The data collected by survey in the study were evaluated trough descriptive statistics and multivariate analysis. The major impasses found were the lack of available places for unloading and intense traffic, and for logistical challenges non-opening to overnight delivery and security level in the receiving periods, due to the urban violence.

Published: May 2021

ABSTRACT Objective: To screen children under 24 months of age for neuropsychomotor and social-emotional development in a municipality of the Brazilian semi-arid region, using the Survey of Well-Being of Young Children (SWYC) scale. Methods: This is a quantitative cross-sectional study with a non-probabilistic sample, involving children aged 1 to 24 months and their respective mothers, recruited from primary care services in the municipality of Picos, Piauí, Northeastern Brazil. The screening for neuropsychomotor and social-emotional development using the SWYC scale also provided information about the family context. In addition, we administered a questionnaire to assess the children’s demographic and socioeconomic factors. Descriptive data analysis was performed. Results: The sample consisted mostly of adult mothers (84.0%), with more than 8 years of schooling (83.3%), belonging to the C, D, and E socioeconomic classes (75.3%). The prevalence of suspected cases of delayed neuropsychomotor development and social-emotional changes was 12.7 and 42.2%, respectively. Conclusions: The results point to the existence of children at risk of delayed development, particularly in the social-emotional domain, reaffirming the need to adopt child development screening as a health service routine, with the implementation of appropriate intervention programs.

Resumo Busca-se aqui singularizar a teoria do agir comunicativo como uma guinada normativa no enunciado da autonomização das esferas sociais. O argumento é estruturado em três momentos: em um primeiro, apresenta-se a compreensão habermasiana da distinção entre pré-moderno e moderno como passagem do indiferenciado ao diferenciado, mais particularmente da reificação mítica ao desacoplamento sistema e mundo da vida; em um segundo, apresenta-se a sua definição da reificação moderna como colonização sistêmica do mundo da vida; por fim, demonstra-se como a sua teoria da racionalização dual é também a investigação dos fundamentos para uma defesa normativa da descolonização/autonomização do mundo da vida como horizonte emancipatório, o que o levará inclusive a abandonar, no curso da obra, a própria tradição de crítica à reificação.
The Right to Make Forest Block Lease Contracts for Another Term without Auction Procedures and the Basic Principles of Forest Law
Authors:   Perm State University, Kuznetsova O. A. , Shupletsova Yu. I. ,   Institute of Legislation and Comparative Law under the Government of the Russian Federation
Published: May 2021

Introduction: the article covers the problems of exercising a lessee’s right to make a forest block lease contract for another term with no auction procedures in the light of the basic principles of forest law. The main problematics resulted from the 2007-2008 procedure of re-issuance of forest block lease contracts made at auction in accordance with the prior Forest Code of the Russian Federation, and the refusal of law enforcement agencies to recognize these lease relations as single and effective after the new Forest Code of the Russian Federation was adopted in 2007. Purpose: to provide a theoretical assessment of the lessors’ refusal to enter into forest block lease contracts with the good faith lessees for another term through no auction procedure, and to assess the compliance of these refusals with the principles of forest legislation. Methods: the dialectical method was used in research as the main one: the right to make a forest block lease contract for another term through no auction procedure is viewed with reference to its genesis, nature, purpose and differentiation from the priority right to make a forest block lease contract for another term on the basis of the results of an auction. Results: it is proved that the re-issuance of a lease contract resulted in a single effective relation between a lessee and a lessor which had arisen on the basis of an auction and was documented in two lease agreements, and that the re-issuance procedure did not cancel the legal basis of the relations commencement (i.e. the auction being won by the lessee) and did not affect the lease duration. Therefore, the good faith lessees who won forest-related auctions, subsequently re-issued the lease contracts, and used the forest blocks for a period of 10 years or more, have the right to conclude lease contracts for a new period without auctions. This approach corresponds to the basic principles of forest law (the need to conserve forests, ensure the quality of forests, sustainably use forests, etc.).

Published: May 2021

The Vaal Triangle Airshed Priority Area (VTAPA), like other priority areas in South Africa, has an air pollution problem. Understanding the sources contributing to air pollution in this priority area will assist in the selection and implementation of appropriate control strategies. For this study, aerosol samples in the coarse (PM10-2.5) and fine (PM2.5) fraction were collected at four sites in the VTAPA during summer/autumn, winter, and spring. The contributing sources were identified and characterised based on the elemental and ionic compositions obtained through X-ray fluorescence and ion chromatography analysis. The highest seasonal median concentrations of PM10-2.5 (116 μg/m3) and PM2.5 (88 μg/m3) were observed in Sharpeville during the winter. The lowest median concentrations of PM10-2.5 (25 μg/m3) and PM2.5 (18 μg/m3) were detected in Zamdela during the summer/autumn period. At all sites, there was a high abundance of crustal elements in PM10-2.5 and a dominance of coal and biomass combustion-related elements in PM2.5. The Positive Matrix Factorisation receptor model identified dust-related and secondary aerosols as the major contributing sources of PM10-2.5. PM2.5 contributions were predominantly from coal burning for Sebokeng and Sharpeville and from industry, wood and biomass burning, and secondary aerosols for Kliprivier and Zamdela. The results of this study identify the main sources contributing to particulate air pollution in the VTAPA and provide local authorities with valuable information for decision-making.Significance:

Dust, industry, domestic coal burning, vehicles, and wood and biomass combustion are the key sources of particulate air pollution in the VTAPA that need to be prioritised by decision-makers.

Although Sebokeng and Sharpeville are located within the vicinity of industries, domestic coal burning has a greater contribution to particulate loading at these sites.

Results from this study will assist in the design of local municipality air quality management plans for the VTAPA.

Materiality, Documentary Authority, and the Circulation of the Katherine Group
Authors: Bledsoe Jenny C.
Published: May 2021

Written in the decades before Ancrene Wisse, the Early Middle English hagiographies of the Katherine Group depict three virgin martyrs, Katherine, Margaret, and Juliana. Using touch and eyewitness accounts as measures of proof, the legend equates St. Margaret’s body with the textual corpus inscribed on animal hide. The manuscript’s documentary authority is verified through proximity to the holy body of the saint, and, in a similarly body-centred (and precarious) authority, the anchoress functions as the centre of an ephemeral textual community in the early thirteenth century. The Katherine Group narratives and codicological evidence indicate an anchoritic-lay literary culture operating adjacent to clerical manuscript culture, consistent with Catherine Innes-Parker’s theory about co-existing informal and formal vernacular textual cultures in the West Midlands. This “informal,” or ephemeral, textual community shaped lay literacy and manuscript use, including perceptions about the documentary authority of vernacular textual artifacts.
Mary, Silence, and the Fictions of Power in Ancrene Wisse 2.269–481
Authors: Easterling Joshua S.
Published: May 2021

A work of spiritual guidance composed for English anchoresses, the thirteenthcentury Ancrene Wisse encourages its readers to imitate the Virgin Mary and her exemplary silence. In its attempt thus to manage the anchoritic voice, Part 2 of the text draws on and substantially reimagines the image presented of the saint in a sermon by the Cistercian Bernard of Clairvaux (d. 1153). For women aspiring to channel spiritual power through their own voice, Mary becomes, as she was for many anchoresses, an object of imitation, though in this case one radically different from Bernard’s model. By reconceptualizing the imperatives of silence, Ancrene Wisse invites the counseling and teaching anchoress into a new relation with her body, in its vocal potentials, and the wider social networks wherein it operated. The work’s figuration of voice demonstrates how both the anchoress and her material environment were shaped through diverse forms of imitatio.

A fuzzy-TOPSIS model for maintenance outsourcing considering the quality of submitted tender documents
Authors: Alshraideh Maysa , Ababneh Shereen , Gunay Elif , Al-Araidah Omar
Published: May 2021

The paper provides a multiple-experts Fuzzy-TOPSIS decision-making model for the selection among maintenance contractors based on the quality of tendering documents. The study introduces a set of selection criteria utilizing benefit and cost criteria from literature. The proposed model aggregates subjective linguistic assessments of multiple experts that express their opinions on the degree of importance of criteria and allows multiple decisionmakers to evaluate the compliance of contractors’ documents. For a case study, the model is applied to select among contractors tendering to maintain the heavy-duty cranes of an international steel company from literature. Several decision-making scenarios are investigated, and major changes in the final decision are observed. The changes in obtained results illustrate the need to better address uncertainties in rating and tendering an overqualified contractor at a higher cost.

How Students Construct Scaffolds by Using Drafts for Solving Tasks
Authors: Chudinova E.V.
Published: May 2021

Modeling is considered a key process in teaching and learning today. However, the transition from collective educational modeling to the use of the model as an individual tool is not investigated enough yet. The purpose of this study is to dis cover and qualitatively describe the phenomena of construction (reconstruction) of own instruments by schoolchildren in a situation where there are no external requirements for modeling. The article describes the proactive use of a draft in solving two math problems by 508 schoolchildren from twenty 3—10 grades of one school and 160 schoolchildren from three other schools using different programs. Analysis of the content of children’s drafts shows that the effective solving a problem is possible if students use the model they previously have studied and also transform and individualize the sign-symbolic form of this model (thus “translating” the model to “their own language”). The initiative in using a draft is largely determined by the way of previous learning.

Published: May 2021

The article presents the history of the development of competence assessment from the XX century till now. On the basis of the completed study the author developed the periodisation of national and international research projects in order to systematize various projects and highlight the stages of their development. The main focus of most projects is the assessment of competences and skills, literacy, respondents’ socio-demographic characteristics. All these components allow to analyse the received data as full as possible. The recent showed studies focus on the ability of using the existing skills and competences in real-life situations. The abovementioned periodisation gives an opportunity to researchers to obtain structured information of the projects and use it in their own research.

ONLINE SALE OF FASHION GOODS
Authors: Jegere Sarmite
Published: May 2021

The main channel for the distribution of retail goods is gradually becoming the Internet. It is also a binding distribution channel for the sale of fashion goods. It allows the retailer to take opportunity not only to post photos, video and audio material showcasing their latest collections, but also to sell the goods directly to the consumer through a website. In Latvia, the purchase of goods in the Internet is growing very fast, especially during the Covid - 19 restrictions, when the purchase of goods in stores is restricted. Throughout Europe and especially in Latvia the crisis caused by Covid-19 has led to the questions, such as - what to do now, what should change and what decisions should be made by fashion retailers so that employees and buyers are not so vulnerable in such unpredictable force majeure situations? According to data from the Interactive Media Retail Group, for example, the UK's online retail turnover increased by 42% in September 2020, by 35.7% in October and by 39% in November compared to the previous year. The aim of this article is to analyze researches about online fashion retailers conducted by US and British researchers and the results of surveys among Chinese and Latvian students. The questions included in the researches and surveys are: Who sells fashion items online? Who helps to create a good fashion website? How do fashion retailers design websites? Who buys online? Conclusions and proposals have been made for retail web developers in Latvia.

Published: May 2021

Teaching the participants of the conflict to conduct a communication is an important process in the mediation. A positive result of the mediation, i.e., resolution of the conflict, is impossible without teaching the participants the rules of a conflict-free communication; that will allow them to avoid conflict situations in society also in future. The publication considers a model of communication between the participants in the conflict as well as the mediator. The model is built on the basis of an analysis of the principles of existing communication models and experience of a practicing mediator. The types of communication noises (including constructs as communication barriers) have been identified and classified, and techniques for detecting these noises has been proposed. By selecting and studying them the mediator has the opportunity to effectively arrange a training for the participants of the conflict. The objective of the study is to build a communication model in a mediation, taking into account semantic and psychological noises; to demonstrate the role of a mediator in a constructive conflict resolution for dialogue teaching; to determine the mediator’s tools. The theoretical study is based on the analysis and assessment of philosophical, pedagogical and psychological literature and a mediation practice. Results: a model of communication in the process of mediation, questionnaire for identifying noises and a processing algorithm for it to determine the methodology for teaching communication to the participants of the conflict.

On the Need and Possible Options for Changing the Rules for Determining Forms of Guilt
Authors: Kokotova D. A.
Published: May 2021

The current version of part 2 of article 24 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation, which appeared because of changes made to the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation in 1998, is rightly criticized for uncertainty. In the literature, various proposals are made to change the rules for determining the forms of guilt. The existing regulation needs adjusting, since it does not ensure the achievement of the initial goal of improving law enforcement, which was originally intended in part 2 of article 24, and does not comply with the principles of equality and legal certainty. The need to ensure compliance with these principles and achieve the original goal of the rule under consideration requires rejecting proposals to "legalize" the discretion of the law enforcement officer, the possibility of which arose due to the uncertainty of the current version of part 2 of article 24. Due to this uncertainty, compliance with the provisions of the Special part will not solve the existing problems. Unifying negligent crimes into a separate chapter, dividing the crimes in the existing chapters by paragraphs, depending on the form of guilt, is too difficult a way if we are talking about improving the current Criminal Code of the Russian Federation. Clear automatic consolidation of the possibility of both forms of guilt does not provide the required differentiation of punishment.

Restoring the original version of part 2 of article 24 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation is an acceptable and easiest way, but there is a reason to believe that the rule changed in this way will fail to ensure that the law enforcement officer follows it. The inclusion of a form of guilt clause in the description of each body of a crime might be an effective means of limiting the discretion of the law enforcement officer, but this method is difficult to implement. It combines the features of these two methods of fixing the rule in the form of a list of crimes involving a particular form of guilt, by analogy with how the age at which criminal responsibility begins is now established.
Reflections on the Legal Classification of Participants in Criminal Proceedings
Authors: Latypov V. S. , Ismagilov R. А.
Published: May 2021

In the paper, the authors attempt to analyze the legislative classification of participants in criminal proceedings. The work contains an analysis of the ratio between the concepts of "participant" and "subject" of criminal procedural relations. Having studied the approaches available in the theory of criminal procedure that existed during the period of the Soviet criminal procedure legislation and in the modern period, the authors conclude that it is unacceptable to identify the concepts of "participant" and "subject" of the criminal proceedings. A participant in a criminal proceeding is a person who has certain characteristics, including the existence of rights, duties and responsibilities, as set out in the relevant criminal procedure norm or group of norms.

Having applied the method of comparative legal analysis of domestic and foreign criminal procedure legislation, procedural theoretical constructions of the Soviet and modern period, the authors conclude that the legislator made an error in the presented classification and system of participants in the criminal procedure. In addition to the main criminal procedure functions, the authors focus on the existence of other functions that are no less important for the emergence and development of criminal procedure relations. It is stated that there is a need to change the approach to the legislative classification of participants in criminal proceedings, taking as a basis the existing experience of individual foreign countries. The authors propose to change the structure of section II of the Criminal Procedural Code of the Russian Federation, which makes it possible to avoid the currently existing procedural conflict related to the attribution of the investigator and the inquirer to the prosecution. It may also help to eliminate any doubts about the attribution of persons assisting in the administration of justice to the participants in the proceedings.
