The Review of the Monograph by V.A. Bazhanov “Cultural Brain – Neuroscience – Mathematics. Listening to I. Kant”
Authors: Isaev Roman O.
Published: March 2023

Over the past 2025 years, significant changes have taken place in the Russian philosophy and methodology of science: philosophers of science are actively exploring new ways to solve the problems facing modern methodology, attracting more and more new subject areas of science. At the same time, the research experience accumulated in the previous period continues to have a serious impact on the current state of the philosophy of science in our country. The author of the monograph skillfully combines the classical gnostic approaches of Kant and modern contexts, thereby revealing the problems of sociocentrism. The appeal in the text of the work to the aesthetic areas of human knowledge looks absolutely logical, given the context of the study of the cultural brain chosen by the author.

Authors: Sabri Nur Ain Ayunni , Mat Arip Norhidayah , Mat Daud Nurul Izyan , Mohd Fatihah
Published: March 2023

The university context in which students are embedded plays a central role in providing students with learning and motivation to think and act entrepreneurially. There is a vibrant research stream that has shown that university offerings affect students’ transition to an entrepreneurial career and on antecedents or enablers of entry, such as entrepreneurial intentions and entrepreneurial knowledge. Student proclivity to begin a venture may be affected not only by the university environment where they are exposed to entrepreneurship but also by perceptions of how desirable entrepreneurial behaviour is considered to be in a given society. The paper explores the drivers of the intention of entrepreneur students in UMK of new venture creation, particularly specialising in the role of university entrepreneurship-related offerings and students' prior business experience. The main objective of this study is to determine the relationship between the contribution of the university to entrepreneurial education, mentoring support, and financial support towards new venture creation. A complete of 346 questionnaires were collected. Using SPSS tools containing Preliminary Analysis, Descriptive Analysis, Reliability and Validity Test, Normality Test and Spearman Correlation Analysis, data analysis was administrated. The result shows the correlation between entrepreneurial education, mentoring support, and financial support towards new venture creation is significant. In conclusion, entrepreneurship courses can be elective and compulsory and generally aim to stimulate entrepreneurial learning by imparting knowledge, skills and attitudes related to entrepreneurship.

Authors: Said Ilias , Usman Nuruddeen
Published: March 2023

Construction firms are often characterized as a conservative industry that lacks innovation. However, many construction organizations and players in the construction industry have now recognized the strategic importance of innovation. That is why the aim of this study is to evaluate innovative quality management practices in some of the Malaysian construction firms. The research was carried out as a case study based on six quality management practices: design, planning, systems, goal, positioning, and interaction practices. The data was collected through interviews and various relevant firms' documents. The analysis of this study was based on an analytical framework that consists of six quality management practices. Therefore, the result of this study shows that the item 'design' in quality management practices leads to the achievement of innovation more than the other items of quality management practices.
Financial Restatement and CEO Turnover in Malaysia
Authors: Ishak Rokiah , Yusof Mohd Atef
Published: March 2023

This study examines the incidence of financial restatement in CEO turnover firms. Using 78 CEO turnover firms from 2008 to 2010 among nonfinancial institution, we find that the age of the CEO influences restatement in the year prior to the CEO turnover. Specifically, older CEOs have higher probability of restating financial statements as they may be pressing for the last bonus/pay that they would likely receive. In contrast, we find that CEOs with forced turnover are less likely to be involved with restatements. This contradicting result may be due to the limited control of financial and accounting matters by the outgoing CEO as compared to the board of directors. Firm characteristics such as size, Big 4, and growth as measured by the market to book value have a positive relationship with restatement, which suggests that big companies with high growth have higher probability of restatement. The study also supports the argument of debt as a monitoring cost as debt is argued to constraint opportunistic earnings management behavior including restatement.

Published: March 2023

Entrepreneurship is an important element of economic development because it does not only produce physical products and provides services but it also generates employment at the same time. Entrepreneurs develop new ideas through creativity and innovativeness and harness available resources to reap profit from their business endeavors. Realizing the importance of entrepreneurship that spurs economic growth, the government of Malaysia encourages future entrepreneurs to participate in entrepreneurship training programs to ensure they increase entrepreneurship capabilities and achieve sustainability in their ventures. In order to do so, training programs should cater to the important requirements of effective training in order to deliver the expected objectives. Thus, this paper aims to explore the determinants of the effectiveness of an entrepreneurship- training program using UMK?s students as the sample. Entrepreneurship students? perception on this is vital as they might be the entrepreneurs who will be involved in an entrepreneurship training program once they graduate from the university. This study adopted the purposive sampling method, where 50 students from the Faculty of Entrepreneurship and Business were selected to answer the structured questionnaires. The results of the study revealed that the trainees? readiness and learning approach were determinants of the effectiveness of the training program. On the other hand, the other two variables, entrepreneur?s orientation and trainer skills, did not have a significant relationship with the effectiveness of the training program. The findings should be treated with caution due to the small number of students involved in the study.

Authors: A. Arokiasamy Anantha Raj
Published: March 2023

The introduction of mobile tools into our classroom spaces ought to be a catalyst for remarkable possibility and genuine change in how we engage learners in the work we pursue together. It should be a moment where we look collectively at what is now possible in how we engage and learn alongside our students and where we do some cultivating that allows us to pull out less timely practices or tools and evolve to what our students need now. It should be a vibrant time. Today?s knowledge-based economy requires that nations equip their citizens with appropriate skills and a demand for university education has continued to soar. In much of Peninsular Malaysia, the rapid increase in university enrollments has been matched with an expansion of the relevant infrastructure, resulting in among other things, adequate classrooms and libraries. There has also been a robust growth in the technology sector globally. This study examines the impact of mobile technology usage among students in PHEIs in Peninsular Malaysia and its implications on quality as well as possible contributions of mobile technology to learning. Challenges aside, the study concludes that mobile technology could be exploited to supplement learning as it enables the student to access academic and research materials from credible sources that are either on free-access or subscribed-for through their home university. The findings also add new understanding as regard to factors influencing students? intention to use mobile technology in higher education.

The results revealed that there was a significant relationship for the long-run relationship between Islamic stock market and macroeconomic variables namely inflation and interest rate. The findings concluded that macroeconomic variables had a greater effect and they were inversely related to Islamic stock market. These findings may suggest policies that are controlled by macroeconomic variables such as inflation and interest rate in enhancing the Islamic stock market in Malaysia.
Role of Market Orientation on Innovation Orientation of Manufacturing Small and Medium- Sized Enterprises (SMEs) in the Accra Metropolis, Ghana
Authors: Issau Kassimu
Published: March 2023

This study was designed to examine the role of market orientation on innovation orientation of manufacturing SMEs in the Accra Metropolis, Ghana. SMEs have been touted by many economies as a backbone for their growth and hence, economic development. However, many of them struggle to have access to market and appropriate technology needed for expansion. In the light of this, this study sought to investigate this issue in the context of developing country, particularly, Ghana. The research approach adopted for this study was quantitative. In addition, whereas simple random sampling technique was adopted to select 346 manufacturing SMEs from the sample frame obtained from NBSSI, PLS-SEM was employed to analyse the relationship between market orientation and innovation orientation. The study revealed that customer orientation and inter-functional coordination have a significant positive relationship with innovation orientation. However, competitor orientation did not have a significant relationship with innovation orientation. This means that manufacturing SMEs which search and satisfy the needs of customers and also share information about customers across the organisation stand tall in improving on their operational processes, products and market activities.

Authors: Abdul Rahim Syarizal , Muhamad Mahathir , Mohamad Anuar Nur Izzati , Nik Mahdi Nik Malini , Mat Hassan Abd Aziz
Published: March 2023

Microfinance is one of the initiative sources of financial service for poor entrepreneurs that only have small businesses and lack access to banking and other services. Microfinance always focuses on poor people with no steady employment who cannot meet most of the qualifications to get financial services from normal banking. Thus, the abilities of borrowers to pay back their microfinance are one of the arguments that need concentration. The finding revealed that there were only two independent variables which were business experience and loan tenure which had a significant positive relationship with the dependent variable namely microfinance repayment performance among borrowers of Amanah Ikhtiar Malaysia (AIM) in Jerantut, Pahang. The knowledge of borrower was not significantly related to the microfinance repayment performance. The result provided the understanding and insight on AIM’s institution, financial institutions, and academic significance about how loan giving out and avoiding microfinance repayment defaults.

Authors: Irfan Moch Imron , Rusdianto
Published: March 2023

The term Corporate social responsibility (CSR) defined as corporate social responsibility, which is an issue of corporate environmental management and is value-added for many multinational companies, including companies located in Indonesia. Corporate awareness in maintaining the environment around the company is much demanded by community social institutions (NGO-environment), to maintain the natural and social balance of the community. Therefore, the implementation and disclosure of CSR for the company is expected to be able to add value to the sustainability of the company itself. Company awareness in establishing good relations with the community, stakeholders, and government can be done for the existence of the company through CSR disclosure, disclosure of financial performance, and the institutional structure of corporate ownership. The company orientation, which originally only a shareholder orientation with the economic orientation paradigm being a stakeholder orientation, will have social and environmental impacts on the company's operations. This study conducted to determine the effect of corporate characteristics behavior (size, profile, institutional ownership) on disclosure of corporate social responsibility. CSR disclosure uses the Corporate Social Responsibility Index (GRI G4). The sampling method used was purposive sampling with a sample of 150 companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange for 2017-2019. The data used are secondary data obtained from www.idx.co.id and the official websites of all related companies. The data analysis method used is multiple regression analysis (OLS). The results of hypothesis testing conclude that the company profile and institutional ownership structure significantly influence the disclosure of social responsibility; Meanwhile, the size of the company does not significantly affect the disclosure of social responsibility.

Published: March 2023

National yearly events that are publicly funded often turn into large events that are appealing to the public and therefore need to benefit the community and society at large. While the government’s role in organising or hosting public celebrations is to foster and enhance the spirit of patriotism, love for the country, strengthen unity and national integration among the people, others may argue that these celebrations are a waste of public funds which could be better spent on the economic development, repair and provision of infrastructure and improving social conditions in the state. This paper aims to examine public perceptions at the locality of the event and surroundings on the economic impact of these events. The study covered two major state events celebrated in Sarawak, the Governor’s birthday and Malaysia Day, organised and funded by the State Protocol and Public Relations Unit of the Sarawak Chief Minister’s Office. A self-administered questionnaire was developed to survey the attendees of two celebratory events via convenience

sampling. The findings from the survey found that the public perceived these events could positively support the locality in gaining temporary employment, support local trade, revive the local economy, increase hotel occupancy, and provide opportunities for future employment. However, the study further found that such events failed to create permanent employment and extend shopping hours in the event locality. Overall, it was shown that while national celebrations are perceived as events that benefit the public economically, there are concerns regarding the funding of infrastructure, which could alter the public’s perception in gaining a higher overall positive perception score.

Published: March 2023

O uso de geotecnologias na agricultura com a utilização de sensoriamento remoto (SR) junto com sistemas de informações geográficas (SIG) no Brasil vem sendo amplamente utilizada nos últimos anos com o lançamento de novos satélites de alta resolução espacial, pois apresentam baixo custo, ausenta a mão de obra técnica no campo e alcança com precisão áreas de grandes extensões agrícolas. Diante disso, o objetivo geral deste trabalho foi analisar diferentes estudos que utilizam o índice de vegetação da diferença normalizada (NDVI) nas principais culturas brasileiras (soja, cana-de-açúcar e café). O presente trabalho apresentou os conhecimentos sobre índices de vegetação, sensores orbitais e uso da geotecnologia para monitoramento de culturas no Brasil. Foi possível concluir que o NDVI é o índice de vegetação mais utilizado no Brasil para estudos envolvendo mapeamento e diagnóstico de diferentes culturas cultivadas no país, sendo utilizado por diferentes autores com distintos satélites. Outros índices vegetação como SAVI e EVI também foram apresentados e destacados como metodologias alternativas para produção de mapas de vegetação das culturas, indicadores de saúde da cultura, além do convencional (NDVI). O estudo demonstrou também o Sensoriamento Remoto como técnica alternativa indispensável, viável e de baixo custo no contexto atual brasileiro envolvendo atividade agrícola.

Abstract
The use of geotechnologies in agriculture with the use of remote sensing (SR) along with geographic information systems (GIS) in Brazil has been widely used in recent years with the launch of new satellites of high spatial resolution, since they are low cost, absent the technical workforce in the field and accurately reaches areas of large agricultural tracts. Therefore, the general objective of this work was to analyze different studies using the normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI) in the main Brazilian crops (soybean, sugar cane and coffee). The present work presented the knowledge about vegetation indices, orbital sensors, and the use of geotechnology to monitor crops in Brazil. It was possible to conclude that the NDVI is the vegetation index most used in Brazil for studies involving mapping and diagnosis of different crops grown in the country, being used by different authors with different satellites. Other vegetation indexes such as SAVI and EVI were also presented and highlighted as alternative methodologies to produce crop vegetation maps, crop health indicators, besides conventional (NDVI). The study also demonstrated Remote Sensing as an indispensable, viable and inexpensive alternative technique in the current Brazilian context involving agricultural activity.

construction du sens des vocables présents dans la description des vins
Authors: Planelles Iváñez Montserrat , Sandakova Elena
Published: March 2023

: La dégustation du vin est à la mode. Une nouvelle sensibilité se développe dans le domaine du plaisir des sens en gastronomie et, par la suite, une culture du vin s’étend depuis l’Europe vers le reste du monde globalisé du XXIᵉ siècle. Les publications, les blogs, les programmes de télévision sur la gastronomie, sur les accords des mets et des vins se multiplient. Un nouveau langage s’établit pour décrire les qualités d’un cru qui, parfois, devient incompréhensible pour le consommateur moyen, aussi bien dans les textes de la critique œnologique que dans les notes de dégustation. Notre objectif est, dans un premier temps, de présenter un corpus riche en adjectifs, substantifs et verbes ayant une charge culturelle partagée et servant à la description des vins, provenant de la langue générale, dont le sens a été enrichi grâce au contexte spécialisé du vin. Ensuite, nous définirons les valeurs sémantiques ajoutées à ces vocables moyennant la métaphore et la métonymie. Finalement, nous étudierons les procédés lexicogéniques des néologismes concernant ce champ lexical.

Published: March 2023

A menos de diez años del cumplimiento de los Objetivos de Desarrollo Sostenible (ODS) los países de América Latina y el Caribe (ALC) tienen un reto sustancial en el sector de residuos sólidos. Cerca de 65 millones de personas no tienen acceso al servicio de gestión de residuos sólidos, las tasas de valorización (4%) son las más bajas comparadas con las demás regiones del mundo y el 40% de los residuos se disponen en sitios inadecuados. Superar esta brecha requiere tomar acciones en el corto plazo y asignar los recursos financieros necesarios para lograr esta mejora. Este estudio presenta una estimación de los recursos requeridos para el cumplimiento de las metas del ODS, en particular el ODS 11 que establece: “De aquí a 2030, reducir el impacto ambiental negativo per cápita de las ciudades, incluso prestando especial atención a la calidad del aire y la gestión de los desechos municipales y de otro tipo” y cuyo indicador 11.6.1 mide la “Proporción de desechos sólidos urbanos recogidos periódicamente y con una descarga final adecuada respecto del total de desechos sólidos urbanos generados”. Se estiman los recursos requeridos en inversión, operación y fortalecimiento institucional como punto de partida para asegurar la sostenibilidad financiera del sector y mejorar los estándares de calidad y cobertura del servicio en la región de ALC.

The article considers the role of schemes (especially visual – visual) in thinking and its research: illustration of situations, problems, correlation of concepts; use of non-standard tasks in the process of creative solution; research of certain types of schemes themselves as manifestations of some features of creative thinking. The understanding of schematism of productive creative thinking, started by I. Kant, was realized in the beginning of the XX century in a number of philosophical-theoretical and pedagogical approaches that address either their heuristic or didactic – constructive role. Special attention is paid to V. E. Steinberg's multidimensional didactic technology a number of initial aspects that were developed with the active participation of the author of the article. The method of constructing a scheme of coordinates of existence and action that not only gives a picture of the existence of a certain "subject" of consideration or field of activity, a certain social subject in a certain direction; but also revealing in their very structure the deep structures of creative thinking, hidden in the unconscious layers of the creative act: superconsciousness (as part of the frame), integral (realized in the space of many coordinates – "dimensions") thinking, dialectical synthesis of heterogeneous (incompatible, opposite).

Незважаючи на значний вплив зовнішніх факторів на діяльність залізничного транспорту під час воєнного стану в Україні, він продовжує достатньо надійно функціонувати. Особливого значення набули пасажирські перевезення, адже в умовах бойових дій, що призводять до руйнування транспортної інфраструктури, залізниця прийняла на себе значне навантаження при організації евакуаційних маршрутів. Звідси і значна відповідальність усіх учасників перевізного процесу. Тому для підвищення надійності функціонування системи швидкісних залізничних пасажирських перевезень в умовах воєнного стану в Україні запропоновано процедуру надання альтернативного маршруту на напрямку перевезень швидкісним поїздам. Формалізацію цього процесу проведено з використанням технології ризик-менеджменту шляхом формування оптимізаційної математичної моделі за критерієм мінімального перевищення експлуатаційних витрат при перевезенні альтернативним маршрутом порівняно зі штатним графіковим перевезенням. Система обмежень у моделі відображує обмеження на технічні та технологічні параметри швидкісних поїздів і залізничної інфраструктури. Для формування множини альтернативних маршрутів на напрямку перевезень використано положення теорії графів. Топологію напрямку подано як зважений граф, де вершинами є залізничні станції, а ребрами – залізничні дільниці з вагою у вигляді кортежу (довжина дільниці, наявність електрифікації, пропускна спроможність). Множина альтернативних маршрутів формується на основі зваженої матриці суміжності графа. Сформовану процедуру знаходження оптимального альтернативного маршруту швидкісних пасажирських поїздів у вигляді програмного продукту запропоновано інтегрувати до системи АСК ПП УЗ на автоматизовані робочі місця (АРМ) оперативного персоналу у вигляді системи підтримки прийняття рішень (СППР).

Published: March 2023

Este trabalho apresenta um estudo exploratório e analítico sobre a orientação sexual dos estudantes que ingressaram no curso de Licenciatura em Ciências Humanas/Sociologia, da Universidade Federal do Maranhão, Campus de Imperatriz, no ano de 2019. Buscou-se, através de instrumentos de coleta de dados como questionário de múltipla escolha e entrevistas semiestruturadas, analisar como os sujeitos autodeclarados gays, lésbicas ou bissexuais vivenciam sua orientação sexual no espaço da universidade. Fundamentando-se em alguns estudos de Foucault (1985;1988), Butler (2020) e Beauvoir (1970; 1980), a categoria da sexualidade foi analisada sob o viés sociopolítico com vistas a entender como as relações sociais interferem nas vivências subjetivas da orientação sexual dos sujeitos da pesquisa. Os dados coletados apontam uma entrada de estudantes homossexuais, mas que, por fatores sociais, procuram manter o sigilo de sua orientação por medo de discriminação por parte da família ou de pessoas que fazem parte do seu convívio.

Dzieło H. T. Buckle’a Historia cywilizacji w Anglii miało istotny wpływ na kształtowanie poglądów historiozoficznych D. Pisariewa, głównie jego zapatrywań na mechanizm przemian historycznych, rolę jednostki w dziejach, uznanie wiedzy za decydujący czynnik przemian cywilizacyjnych z jednoczesnym umniejszeniem roli czynnika moralnego.
Ukształtowany pod wpływem H. T. Buckle’a kult wiedzy wyraził się u Pisariewa w podporządkowaniu literatury nauce, preferowaniu publicystyki, stosowaniu kryteriów utylitarnych w ocenach współczesnej literatury.
Маяковский и русская утопия XX века
Authors: Parniewski Witold
Published: March 2023

Majakowski był typowym, wzorcowym utopistą, duchowym typem utopisty heroicznego, rewolucyjnego. Źródła jego utopizmu wypływały z totalnej dezaprobaty wobec dotychczasowego porządku świata, z potrzeby szczęścia i uszczęśliwiania innych. W twórczości Majakowskiego występują wszystkie elementy nowożytnej utopii komunistycznej, marksistowsko-leninowskiej: pochwała bezwzględnej równości dla wszystkich, własności społecznej, kolektywizmu, centralnego planowania, kierowania i organizacji życia, industrializmu, komunistycznego wychowania i świeckiego, radzieckiego mesjanizmu. Świadomość niemożności spełnienia wymogów stawianych przez utopię: przekroczenia granic tego co możliwe, kondycji ludzkiej, świadomość, iż staje się już tylko apologetą „utopii u władzy”, który musi „sam się uśmiercać, następując na gardziel swej pieśni”, stała się prawdopodobnie przyczyną jego samobójczej śmierci.
Проблема власти в судьбе и творчестве Владимира Маяковского

Artykuł jest próbą podsumowania aktualnego stanu badań na temat złożonych relacji między Majakowskim i władzą w porewolucyjnej Rosji. Przedmiotem analizy są trzy odmienne interpretacje danego zagadnienia. Jedni krytycy postrzegają poetę jako nieugiętego piewcę rewolucji i totalitarnego państwa, inni zaś traktują go jak ofiarę totalitaryzmu. Najbardziej radykalna grupa badaczy oskarża twórcę o cynizm i hipokryzję. Jednak humanitaryzm i umiłowanie wolności Majakowskiego oraz jego skomplikowane stosunki z nową władzą wskazują, że ta kwestia winna stać sie przedmiotem dalszej wnikliwej i bardziej obiektywnej oceny literaturoznawczej.
Eduard Limonow i jego stosunek do władzy
Authors: Supa Wanda
Published: March 2023

В статье обсуждается мировоззрение и художественная специфика автобиографической прозы Э. Лимонова, творчество которого вызывает полярно противоположные оценки критики.
Пытаясь определить механизмы, управляющие обществом и отдельными людьми, писатель выработал оригинальную стратегию полемики и разоблачения признанных авторитетов, общепринятых мнений, мифов и идеологических догм. В его повестях Подросток Савенко и Молодой негодяй уничижительной критике при помощи низких сатирических приемов подвергаются представители советского правительства эпохи „хрущевской оттепели" и „застоя” , в романе Это я – Эдичка – слабые стороны американской демократии, в публицистических статьях – отрицательные результаты „перестройки” и „ельцинской буржуазной революции”.
Quipu versus escritura : la burocracia incaica en el siglo XVI
Authors: Spalding Karen
Published: March 2023

Los estudios sobre la formación del Estado generalmente coinciden en que dos de los elementos básicos de un Estado operativo son su habilidad para apropiarse de los bienes y alimentos producidos por la gente sujeta a su autoridad y su capacidad para distribuirlos entre dicha población. Además, casi todos esos estudios asumen que los estados dependen de alguna forma de comunicación escrita para registrar tanto la recolección y distribución de los bienes como el trabajo que los mantiene en funcionamiento. El rey Felipe II de España, por ejemplo, era llamado «el rey papelero» por sus contemporáneos (Poole 2004: 8). Los autores están generalmente de acuerdo en que los funcionarios encargados reunir y procesar los informes y las cuentas escritas que inundaban las oficinas del gobierno en Madrid eran quienes mantenían el sistema operativo. Los estados europeos, como el sistema romano que los precedió, no cuestionaban el supuesto de que el gobierno requería un idioma escrito. Los aventureros españoles que invadieron los Andes labraron sus dominios tanto con cartas como con armas. Las autoridades eclesiásticas y civiles que vinieron después, por su parte, nunca cuestionaron la superioridad del sistema que tenían para representar el habla con signos frente a otras formas de comunicación y de almacenamiento de información.

On behalf of socialism and in the name of humanity (to the 100th anniversary of the formation of the USSR)
Authors: Mukhachev Vadim
Published: March 2023

The article is devoted to the 100th anniversary of the formation on the ruins of the Russian Empire of the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics– the main brainchild of the Great Socialist Revolution, which began in October 1917. Being a natural product of the historical development of capitalism and the class struggle of the international proletariat against the bourgeoisie, the USSR became the highest stage in the history of socialism in the 19th-20th centuries. Realizing the vital tasks of Soviet power, the USSR at the same time acted on behalf of and in the name of the working people of all countries, demanding their liberation from any form of oppression and exploitation. Noting the generally recognized merits of the USSR to mankind, its huge contribution to the struggle against imperialism, fascism and colonialism of capitalist states, the author pays special attention to the reasons for its collapse, and also rejects the ideological (perverse and false) nature of liberal criticism of the history of the Soviet state. In conclusion, it is emphasized that humanity has no reasonable alternative to socialism.
Eastern vector of mass migrations in Russia in domestic studies of the 19th - first half of the 20th centuries
Authors: Belyaeva Lyudmila
Published: March 2023

Modern Russia clearly demonstrates the trend of recent decades - the movement of the population from the East and North to the European Central and Southern part of the country. The main reasons for relocation to these regions are the developed social and socio-cultural infrastructure, employment and professional opportunities that would allow families to lead a full life. An eastward turn of migration flows could gradually solve the problem of overpopulation in the megacities of the European part of the country. But, as statistics show, the process of outflow of the population from the eastern regions has only slowed down so far, but has not stopped. In the history of Russia there were various spontaneous and organised movements of large masses of people, mainly in eastern directions, in connection with the continuous expansion of its borders and the need to develop new territories. These processes became especially active in the 19th century. First, as an independent resettlement of peasants with small allotments, later in the middle of the century with the state support. At the beginning of the 20th century organised migration accelerated in connection with the implementation of the Stolypin reforms. In just four years (1907–1911), 2.6 mln people moved to the East of Russia. The article presents the works of Russian researchers of the 19th - early 20th centuries, dedicated to mass migrations of the population from the Center of Russia to the East. The works can be organised in two groups. One group introduces the public to the natural, ethnographic, and sanitary conditions in the new territories, and tells the history of the conquest and settlement in these places. In other works, migration practices themselves are studied, with the study of information about migrants, their composition, socio-demographic and other characteristics. Questioning methods were used, tracing the reasons for resettlement, assessments of new places, psychological motives for resettlement. The revolutionary changes in Russia in 1917 accelerated the migration of the population. In the first fifteen years after the revolution, these processes were studied quite actively (O.V. Kvitkin, S.G. Strumilin). Since the mid-1930s, the study of migration has been curtailed, although this was a period of intensive voluntary and forced displacement of the country's inhabitants, amateur and organised migrations. The main flow of migrants was directed from the village to the city, from the Center to the East, that was associated with the accelerated urbanisation and industrialisation of the country.
