Middle Eastern policy of the Russian Federation in the post-soviet period: Dynamics of development
Authors:   St. Petersburg State University, Abalian Anna I.
Published: October 2020

The article is an overview of the main directions of the policy of the Russian Federation in the Middle East from 1991 to the present. Certain stages are identified when the transformation of the paradigm of the Middle East foreign policy and, accordingly, the change in the role of Russia in the regional arena took place. Various domestic and foreign policy factors are considered, which caused the loss of Russia’s influence in the countries of the region in the 1990s and early 2000s, but with the change in geopolitical realities, they lost their significance. This made it possible from the mid-2000s to begin the process of restoring ties with traditional Middle Eastern partners, simultaneously with the development of new areas of cooperation, in particular, with Israel and the monarchies of the Persian Gulf. The article also identifies strategic priorities that affect the nature of relations between Russia and such key countries of the region as Iran and Turkey as well as determine the dynamics of their development. Particular attention is paid to the comparative analysis and assessment of the geopolitical consequences of the policy of “active neutrality” in the early stages of the “Arab Spring”, which led to the weakening of bilateral relations with the countries of the Middle East and North Africa in addition to Russian positions in the region as a whole, and Russia’s armed intervention strategy within the current Syrian crisis. In conclusion, the author argues that there is a need for further development and diversification of contacts with the countries of the Middle East region in the formation of Russian foreign policy taking into account new trends in the world political and economic arena.

Authors: Gomes Leonardo do Couto , Amgarten Quitzau Evelise , Silva Marcelo Moraes e
Published: October 2020

Os bailes sociais foram atividades presentes nas principais cidades brasileiras do século XIX. Nesse sentido, o presente artigo foi norteado pela seguinte problemática de pesquisa: Como ocorreu a implementação das festividades dançantes no Clube Curitibano entre os anos 1881-1914? Como fontes, foram utilizados jornais e revistas publicados em Curitiba no período. As análises apontam que a inserção dos bailes no Clube investigado ocorreu com intenção distintiva das danças realizadas em outros espaços. Percebe-se que, por meio dos bailes, a agremiação buscava um refinamento da educação corporal dos associados. Conclui-se que a implementação da dança no Clube Curitibano era realizada sob moldes regrados e controlados, a ponto de esta ter parcela significativa na pedagogia corporal de seus sócios.
A pessoa com deficiência no curso da história: aspectos sociais, culturais e políticos
Authors: Moises Ronaldo Rodrigues , Stockmann Daniel
Published: October 2020

Este artigo investiga concepções e tratativas sobre as pessoas com deficiência, em um recorte temporal iniciado com os primeiros registros históricos mundiais sobre essa temática até a retomada da democracia brasileira em 1985. Trata-se de uma revisão bibliográfica com perspectiva de análise crítica, realizada por meio de obras que investigam a história da pessoa com deficiência, da educação especial e da educação, de forma geral. Os resultados demonstraram que a história da pessoa com deficiência foi fruto de suas condições materiais de existência tendo, todavia, uma temporalidade paralela quando comparada às pessoas consideradas “normais”, no que concerne à oferta de atendimentos e práticas formativas. Conclui-se que à pessoa com deficiência foi imposto, primariamente, provar-se (que tal, afirmar-se como ser) humano para poder viver e desfrutar das riquezas socialmente produzidas.
El deporte, los pueblos originarios y las perspectivas ideológicas: entre el racialismo de los Juegos Olímpicos de Saint Louis (1904) y la reafirmación étnica de los Juegos Mundiales de los Pueblos Indígenas (2015)
Authors: Aurelio Arnoux Narvaja
Published: October 2020

En este trabajo se pretende indagar sobre las representaciones e imaginarios en torno a los pueblos indígenas a partir del análisis de dos eventos culturales distintos: los “juegos antropológicos” de Saint-Louis (1904) y los Juegos Mundiales de los Pueblos Indígenas en Brasil (2015). Se utilizará la perspectiva de análisis comparativo cualitativo (Ariza y Gandini, 2015) enfatizando en los discursos sociales y políticos que evocan y en las dimensiones simbólicas que expresan, atendiendo, entre otros, a la representación del cuerpo. Mientras que en el primer caso hay un claro propósito de etiquetamiento, de clasificación, de occidentalización, en el segundo se vislumbra resistencia, emancipación, apropiación.

O presente trabalho tem por objetivo compreender os fatores determinantes da realização das Conferências Interamericanas de Educação, realizadas entre os anos de 1943 e 1963, fundamentalmente a partir da análise do contexto histórico em que a estratégia diplomática do imperialismo estadunidense estava sob a égide da retórica da cooperação continental, desde a ‘Política da Boa Vizinhança’ até a celebração do acordo ‘Aliança para o Progresso’. Trata-se de uma pesquisa histórica, bibliográfica e documental, assentada nos pressupostos teóricos e metodológicos da história política, sobretudo nas contribuições do movimento dos Annales, que apontou a utilização das Conferências Interamericanas de Educação como instrumento do imperialismo estadunidense para a América Latina.
Interpreters of the past and of the present: the art of historians of education and archivists
Authors: Vidal Diana , Silva José Cláudio Sooma
Published: October 2020

Interpreting former times is not the sole province of historians. It is a constitutive act of the arts performed by writers, exhibition curators, docufilm directors, film writers and scenographers, re-enactors. But not only, it is also an element of the practice of historians of education and archivists, of people who throughout their lives collect records, of the exercise of patrimonial education on the part of teachers and of the organizers of school museums. Framing the discussion on the craft of historians of education and archivists, we structured the article into two parts. The first part focuses on the historiographical narrative in education, taking an example from the Brazilian history of education. The second part deals with some of the dimensions present in the acts of archiving, focusing on particularly the materiality of the documents.

Educar los cuerpos latinos. Políticas eugenésicas y cultura física en Argentina, Brasil y Colombia (1920-1940)
Authors: Galak Eduardo Lautaro
Published: October 2020

La retórica característicamente occidental y moderna que indica que el fortalecimiento del músculo deviene en un perfeccionamiento de la raza anida en sentidos “oficiales” institucionalmente centralizados que se difundieron mediante distintos mecanismos entre las décadas de 1920 y 1930, los cuales hicieron posible la masificación de la cultura física por fuera de los muros escolares. El resultado de estos procesos fue la utilización de los ejercicios físicos para transmitir un ethos determinado y un sentido del (cuidado del) cuerpo simultáneamente como obligación individual y responsabilidad colectiva. Para desarrollar esta problemática se analizaron los discursos pedagógicos sobre mejoramiento de la raza a raíz de fortalecer los cuerpos en revistas educativas y en distintas fuentes históricas argentinas, brasileras y colombianas.

Authors: Almada Cecilia
Published: October 2020

El presente artículo describe el rol de la cultura física y el deporte en la Argentina del primer peronismo. Ambos integran la política de ampliación de ciudadanía que postuló el peronismo y se tornan un campo de disputas de recursos materiales y simbólicos. En ellas intervienen diversas agencias estatales, entre las que se destaca La Fundación Eva Perón. El análisis de documentos y las entrevistas a informantes calificados permitieron desentrañar ambas dimensiones y comprender el papel de la cultura física en la conformación de lo que el discurso peronista denominó “hombre nuevo”.

Authors: Filik Hayati , Avan Asiye Aslıhan
Published: October 2020

The usage of dendrimers or cascade molecules in the biomedical area has recently
attracted much attention worldwide. Furthermore, dendrimers are interesting in clinical
and pre-clinical applications due to their unique characteristics. Cancer is one of the most
widespread challenges and important diseases, which has the highest mortality rate. In this
review, the recent advances and developments (from 2009 up to 2019) in the field of electrochemical
and electroluminescence immunosensors for detection of the cancer markers are
presented. Moreover, this review covers the basic fabrication principles and types of electrochemical
and electrochemiluminescence dendrimer-based immunosensors. In this review,
we have categorized the current dendrimer based-electrochemical/ electroluminescence
immunosensors into five groups: dendrimer/ magnetic particles, dendrimer/ferrocene,
dendrimer/metal nanoparticles, thiol-containing dendrimer, and dendrimer/quantum dots
based-immunosensors.

Authors: Zhang Le-Yi , Zhang Jun-Gang , Yang Xue , Cai Mao-Hua , Zhang Cheng-Wu , Hu Zhi-Ming
Published: October 2020

Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) is one of the ancient and most accepted alternative medicinal systems in the world for the treatment of health ailments. World Health Organization recognizes TCM as one of the primary healthcare practices followed across the globe. TCM utilizes a holistic approach for the diagnosis and treatment of cancers. The tumor microenvironment (TME) surrounds cancer cells and plays pivotal roles in tumor development, growth, progression, and therapy resistance. TME is a hypoxic and acidic environment that includes immune cells, pericytes, fibroblasts, endothelial cells, various cytokines, growth factors, and extracellular matrix components. Targeting TME using targeted drug delivery and nanoparticles is an attractive strategy for the treatment of solid tumors and recently has received significant research attention under precise medicine concept. TME plays a pivotal role in the overall survival and metastasis of a tumor by stimulating cell proliferation, preventing the tumor clearance by the immune cells, enhancing the oncogenic potential of the cancer cells, and promoting tumor invasion. Hepatocellular Carcinoma (HCC) is one of the major causes of cancer-associated deaths affecting millions of individuals worldwide each year. TCM herbs contain several bioactive phytoconstituents with a broad range of biological, physiological, and immunological effects on the system. Several TCM herbs and their monomers have shown inhibitory effects in HCC by controlling the TME. This study reviews the fundamentals and applications of targeting strategies for immunosuppressing TME to treat cancers. This study focuses on TME targeting strategies using TCM herbs and the molecular mechanisms of several TCM herbs and their monomers on controlling TME.

Authors: Tzuc-Salinas Ángel Josué , Cedeño-Vázquez J. Rogelio , Gual-Sill Fernando , Molina-Rosales Dolores Ofelia
Published: October 2020

This study focused on the relationship between the perceptions and attitudes of visitors at the Jardín Zoológico Payo Obispo and their support for the conservation of nine animal species, native of southeastern Mexico. Results from 198 surveys applied from November 2018 to February 2019, show that fear is the most important factor for visitors to decide if they support the protection of opossums and boas, while for ferruginous pygmy-owl and Morelet’s crocodile it was the aesthetic consideration (“ugly”). For the remainder species, with the exception of the jicotea turtle, both, the fear, and the aesthetic perceptions directly influence conservation support.
Impacts of a New Supermarket on Dietary Behavior and the Local Foodscape in Kisumu, Kenya: Protocol for a Mixed Methods, Natural Experimental Study
Authors: Foley Louise , Francis Oliver , Musuva Rosemary , Mogo Ebele RI , Turner-Moss Eleanor , Wadende Pamela , Were Vincent , Obonyo Charles
Published: October 2020

Background

Access to healthy food is considered a key determinant of dietary behavior, and there is mixed evidence that living near a supermarket is associated with a healthier diet. In Africa, supermarkets may contribute to the nutrition transition by offering both healthy and unhealthy foods and by replacing traditional food sellers. In Kisumu, Kenya, a planned hypermarket (ie, a supermarket combined with a department store) will form the basis for a natural experimental evaluation.

Objective

The aim of this study is to explore the impacts of a new hypermarket on food shopping practices, dietary behaviors, physical activity patterns, and body composition among local residents and to identify concurrent changes in the local foodscape. We also aim to explore how impacts and associations vary by socioeconomic status.

Methods

We employ a mixed methods, longitudinal study design. Two study areas were defined: the hypermarket intervention area (ie, Kisumu) and a comparison area with no hypermarket (ie, Homabay). The study is comprised of 4 pieces of primary data collection: a quantitative household survey with local residents, a qualitative study consisting of focus group discussions with local residents and semistructured interviews with government and private sector stakeholders, an audit of the local foodscape using on-the-ground data collection, and an intercept survey of shoppers in the hypermarket. Assessments will be undertaken at baseline and approximately 1 year after the hypermarket opens.

Results

Baseline assessments were conducted from March 2019 to June 2019. From a total sampling frame of 400 households, we recruited 376 of these households, giving an overall response rate of 94.0%. The household survey was completed by 516 individuals within these households. Across the two study areas, 8 focus groups and 44 stakeholder interviews were conducted, and 1920 food outlets were geocoded.

Conclusions

This study aims to further the understanding of the relationship between food retail and dietary behaviors in Kenya. Baseline assessments for the study have been completed.

Intervention to Improve Preschool Children’s Fundamental Motor Skills: Protocol for a Parent-Focused, Mobile App–Based Comparative Effectiveness Trial
Authors: Webster E Kipling , Kracht Chelsea L , Newton Jr Robert L , Beyl Robbie A , Staiano Amanda E
Published: October 2020

Background

Preschool age is an important time to master fundamental motor skills (FMS) through structured physical activity, yet many young children lag behind in motor skill development.

Objective

The Promoting Lifelong Activity in Youth (PLAY) study is a pilot comparative effectiveness trial to test the acceptability, feasibility, and preliminary effectiveness of a mobile app delivered to parents to promote FMS development in their preschool children (aged 3-5 years).

Methods

We conducted a 2-arm, parallel-design, randomized comparative effectiveness trial in 72 parent-child dyads from the southeastern United States. Experts in motor development and developmental psychology developed an app designed to deliver a 12-week program to parents of preschoolers using 1 of 2 curricula: an FMS program (intervention) that involved peer modeling, parent engagement, and structured skills-based activities and an unstructured physical activity (comparator) curriculum that provided suggestions for child-led physical activity (ie, free play). Primary outcomes are feasibility and acceptability of the app and child’s FMS measured at end of intervention (week 12). Exploratory outcomes are child’s objective physical activity, perceived movement competence, and parent report of self-regulation at the end of treatment (week 12) and sustained outcomes at follow-up (week 24).

Results

This project was funded in September 2018, with institutional review board approval in August 2018. Data collection took place from May 2019 through February 2020. To date, the project team has completed data collection on 69 preschool-age children, and results are expected to be published by 2021.

Conclusions

The PLAY study examines the feasibility and preliminary effectiveness of a mobile app, parent-led curricula to promote FMS proficiency for preschool children. If found to be effective, the app has the potential for wide-scale dissemination to parents of preschoolers and to provide a model for the utilization of mobile apps to promote young children’s motor skill development.

Authors: Adamou Marios , Fullen Tim , Galab Nazmeen , Mackintosh Isobel , Abbott Karl , Lowe Deborah , Smith Claire
Published: October 2020

Background

The psychological effects of the COVID-19 government-imposed lockdown have been studied in several populations. These effects however have not been studied in adult populations with attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD).

Objective

We wanted to investigate the psychological effects of the COVID-19 imposed lockdown on an adult population with ADHD.

Methods

We conducted a cross-sectional survey by administering the Patient Health Questionnaire-9, Generalized Anxiety Disorder Scale-7, Brief Adjustment Scale-6, Perceived Stress Scale, and Multidimensional Scale of Perceived Social Support to a pragmatic sample of adults with ADHD.

Results

In total, 24 individuals (male: n=18, 75%; female: n=6, 25%; age: mean 21.75 years, SD 1.85 years) were included in this study. The adults with ADHD we surveyed had significant levels of emotional distress during the COVID-19 pandemic period. However, there was no evidence of significant deterioration to the mental health of our sample during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Conclusions

When treatment for ADHD is maintained, the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on the mental health of adults with ADHD are mild. Targeted psychological interventions may be useful in such circumstances.
Program for Healthier School Cafeterias in Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil: Protocol for a Community-Based Randomized Trial (Preprint)
Authors: Balestrin Mariana , Brasil Carla Cristina Bauermann , Bellei Ericles Andrei , Kirsten Vanessa Ramos , Wagner Mario Bernardes
Published: October 2020

BACKGROUND

School cafeterias can promote poor eating habits, as these retail outlets have a variety of foods considered to be nonnutritive and unhealthy. However, despite the need for effective preventive strategies, there is still disagreement on the best approach due to the lack of evidence on interventions to prevent and treat obesity in the school settings.

OBJECTIVE

We aim to verify the efficacy of an educational intervention program to improve the hygienic conditions and the composition of the menu offered in school cafeterias in the state of Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil.

METHODS

We will conduct a randomized, parallel, two-arm, community-based controlled study. Elementary and high schools, both public and private, in the State of Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil, that have a cafeteria will be eligible. Schools will be recruited and randomly assigned to the intervention (n=27) or control (n=27) group. The intervention group will receive an educational intervention program based on the guidelines issued by the Ministry of Health of Brazil, consisting of a 160-hour distance-learning qualification course, for 10 weeks, and using the Moodle platform and WhatsApp app. The intervention targets the owners and people in charge of the cafeterias, food handlers, principals, vice principals, teachers, pedagogical coordinators, dietitians, representatives of students' parents, and students over 16 years old. Meanwhile, the control group will receive only a printed copy of the book containing the guidelines used. The efficacy of the intervention will be determined by the hygienic conditions of the cafeteria and the composition of the menu offered, also considering the levels of processing of food sold. All outcomes will be analyzed as intention-to-treat and per-protocol. We will use covariance analysis or a generalized linear model for continuous data and ordinal logistic regression for ordinal categorical data. The level of statistical significance considered will be P<.05 for a 95% CI.

RESULTS

This project was funded in early 2018. We administered the intervention program in 2019. All data have already been collected, and we are analyzing the data. The results are expected in 2021.

CONCLUSIONS

To our knowledge, this may be the first randomized controlled study in school cafeterias held in Brazil. The results will provide evidence for the formulation of public food and nutritional security policies and for the development of effective strategies to provide safe and healthy school meals.

Novel Machine-Learned Approach for COVID-19 Resource Allocation: A Tool for Evaluating Community Susceptibility (Preprint)
Authors: Kale Neil
Published: October 2020

BACKGROUND

Despite worldwide efforts to develop an effective COVID vaccine, it is quite evident that initial supplies will be limited. Therefore, it is important to develop methods that will ensure that the COVID vaccine is allocated to the people who are at major risk until there is a sufficient global supply.

OBJECTIVE

The purpose of this study was to develop a machine-learning tool that could be applied to assess the risk in Massachusetts towns based on community-wide social, medical, and lifestyle risk factors.

METHODS

I compiled Massachusetts town data for 29 potential risk factors, such as the prevalence of preexisting comorbid conditions like COPD and social factors such as racial composition, and implemented logistic regression to predict the amount of COVID cases in each town.

RESULTS

Of the 29 factors, 14 were found to be significant (p < 0.1) indicators: poverty, food insecurity, lack of high school education, lack of health insurance coverage, premature mortality, population, population density, recent population growth, Asian percentage, high-occupancy housing, and preexisting prevalence of cancer, COPD, overweightness, and heart attacks. The machine-learning approach is 80% accurate in the state of Massachusetts and finds the 9 highest risk communities: Lynn, Brockton, Revere, Randolph, Lowell, New Bedford, Everett, Waltham, and Fitchburg. The 5 most at-risk counties are Suffolk, Middlesex, Bristol, Norfolk, and Plymouth.

CONCLUSIONS

With appropriate data, the tool could evaluate risk in other communities, or even enumerate individual patient susceptibility. A ranking of communities by risk may help policymakers ensure equitable allocation of limited doses of the COVID vaccine.

Racial Disparities in the Arteriovenous Fistula Care Continuum in Hemodialysis Patients
Authors: Qian Joyce , Lee Timmy , Thamer Mae , Zhang Yi , Crews Deidra C. , Allon Michael
Published: October 2020

Background and objectives

Arteriovenous fistulas are the optimal vascular access type for patients on hemodialysis. However, arteriovenous fistulas are used less frequently in Black than in White individuals. The arteriovenous fistula care continuum comprises a series of sequential steps. A better understanding is needed of where disparities exist along the continuum in order to mitigate racial differences in arteriovenous fistula use.

Design, setting, participants, & measurements

Using Medicare claims data from the United States Renal Data System, longitudinal analyses of patients ≥67 years initiating hemodialysis with a central venous catheter between July 1, 2010 and June 30, 2012 were performed. Three patient cohorts were identified: patients initiating hemodialysis with a catheter (n=41,814), patients with arteriovenous fistula placement within 6 months of dialysis initiation (n=14,077), and patients whose arteriovenous fistulas were successfully used within 6 months of placement (n=7068). Three arteriovenous fistula processes of care outcomes were compared between Blacks and Whites: (1) arteriovenous fistula creation, (2) successful arteriovenous fistula use, and (3) primary arteriovenous fistula patency after successful use.

Results

An arteriovenous fistula was placed within 6 months of dialysis initiation in 37% of patients initiating dialysis with a catheter. Among the patients with arteriovenous fistula placement, the arteriovenous fistula was successfully used for dialysis within 6 months in 48% of patients. Among patients with successful arteriovenous fistula use, 21% maintained primary arteriovenous fistula patency at 3 years. After adjusting for competing risks, Black patients on hemodialysis were 10% less likely to undergo arteriovenous fistula placement (adjusted subdistribution hazard ratio, 0.90; 95% confidence interval, 0.87 to 0.94); 12% less likely to have successful arteriovenous fistula use after placement (adjusted subdistribution hazard ratio, 0.88; 95% confidence interval, 0.83 to 0.93); and 22% less likely to maintain primary arteriovenous fistula patency after successful use (subdistribution hazard ratio, 0.78; 95% confidence interval, 0.74 to 0.84).

Conclusions

Lower arteriovenous fistula use among Blacks older than 67 years of age treated with hemodialysis was attributable to each step along the continuum of arteriovenous fistula processes of care.

“O tempo da província”: revisão bibliográfica crítica da política imperial no Brasil oitocentista
Authors: Machado Oliveira Kelly Eleutério
Published: October 2020

Em 1958, Francisco Iglésias afirmou que era preciso “incorporar a província à História”. Para ele, a historiografia brasileira havia privilegiado “os primeiros tempos” da História do Brasil, o período colonial. O objetivo da crítica era justificar a novidade e a relevância da sua tese de livre docência: Política Econômica do Governo Provincial mineiro. Partindo do estudo de Minas Gerais, Iglésias elucidou a política imperial brasileira oitocentista. Deixou herdeiros. O objetivo deste artigo é discutir como a historiografia incorporou a província e as Assembleias provinciais ao debate sobre a construção do Estado nacional. Para isso, retomamos algumas discussões no século XIX, pois elas concertaram distintas perspectivas historiográficas.

Authors: Kuklina E. A. , Mitselovskaya O. S.
Published: October 2020

In the context of the digital economy formation the level of innovative development of the enterprise is a marker of the readiness of the economic system for digital transformation. Digital transformation makes it possible to digitize all the aspects of the business that generate interfaces for interacting with clients and then digital technologies are used to obtain results through the implementation of innovative strategies and the production of innovative products. The results of the study in which the subject is the methodological aspects of assessing the level of innovative development of an enterprise are relevant. The article formulates the necessary conditions for ensuring the economic efficiency of enterprises of various industries and fields of activity (the availability of innovative potential, a sufficient level of innovative development, high readiness to develop and implement a leader’s strategy). The scientific hypothesis is the assumption that it is necessary to use a methodological approach based on the phased implementation of assessment procedures and the use of assessment methods corresponding to each stage. An algorithm for assessing the level of innovative development of an enterprise is proposed, the concept of innovative potential is clarified and its structure which takes into account the digital transformation of the economy is determined. The indicators of assessing innovative potential and the level of innovative development of the enterprise are substantiated.

Authors: Antoncheva O. A. , Apanasenko T. E.
Published: October 2020

Rural-urban social inequality in Russia is evident. Russian public opinion proposes to reduce the rural-urban income gap, both within the framework of the self-regulating market paradigm, reflected in public programmes, and within the planned command economy framework. In the same ways it proposes to achieve an inter-regional socio-economic balance.

The People’s Republic of China (PRC) also faces the problem of reducing rural-urban social inequality. It looks as if it is trying to solve the problem by applying direct measures that can even reverse the processes of urbanization.

This article proposes to analyze and adopt the most effective ways of reducing rural-urban inequality, as practiced in China. It is also possible to incorporate in the Chinese state’s management of social processes the methods of reduction of inequality between rural and urban populations, created by the dirigiste trends of Russian public thought, since the socio-economic system of the PRC readily assimilates elements of the planned economy.

The Problem of Classification of Targets in Informational Conflicts
Authors: Korostelev S. V.
Published: October 2020

As a result of changes in the technological tenor and congruous with it organization of the world economy, serious changes have occurred in the gradation of participants in armed conflicts. Firstly, the warring parties are not only states now. Secondly, the vast majority of the targets to be overpowered to ensure victory in the conflict are currently in the private sector and out of state control. Also, an essential feature of the information confrontation is that in the vast majority of situations, the direct perpetrator of an information attack cannot be identified immediately and to a large extent due to the fact that “military” conflicts in cyberspace in the context of international relations can be “embedded” in various forms of struggle for power: political, economic, informational, technological, media and ideological, etc. That is, a significant number of participants in ordinary everyday life implicit activities in all walks of life from all over the globe can be not only indirect but also direct participants of informational conflict.

In the digital era, targets selected for destruction can have completely different and unexpected properties, which leads to the existence of a significant number of approaches to the classification of targets of informational impact. Force is used against physical and virtual objects in the physical, informational and cognitive dimensions.

The complexity of assessing the physical damage inflicted on states, and their population in the cognitive sphere conformably, and relating it with the practice of assigning international responsibility for the use of traditional means of warfare makes it impossible to form any adequate universal international political and legal regime for countering information threats in the near future. The elimination of threats in cyberspace is a common interest in ensuring international stability, but at present it can be carried out by states only on their own.

A statement of the specified list of unacceptable aggressive actions carried out through information influences in the federal legislation will be, in essence, a preventive measure, since it will establish a threshold restriction for other international actors to interfere in the internal affairs of the state from outside.
