Authors: Spitsyn Vladislav V. , Mikhal'chuk Alexander A. , Bulykina Anastasia A. , Popova Svetlana N. , Nikulina Irina E.
Published: December 2020

Leading world countries view innovative development and high-tech business as an opportunity to overcome economic stagnation and decline in economic growth. One of the modern trends in the analysis of high-tech development is the study of high-tech knowledge-intensive service industries and their development in times of crisis. The purpose of the paper is to identify patterns of development of large, medium and small enterprises in high-tech service industries in Russia during periods of crisis. Economic and economic-mathematical methods of analysis are applied to the formed samples of enterprises. The research period is 2013-2017. The financial indicators of enterprises were adjusted for the level of accumulated inflation in relation to 2013. According to results, large and medium-sized enterprises showed insignificant or weak significant positive dynamics of revenue during all years of the crisis period. The crisis period did not lead to a decrease in the revenue of these groups of enterprises. The acute phase of the crisis (2014-2015) had a pronounced negative impact on the group of small enterprises in all studied industries, but they successfully recovered in 2016-2017 and reached the pre-crisis level of revenue. The total revenue by industries and groups of enterprises in 2017 became higher than in 2013, and its growth rates were significant for many groups of enterprises, which indicates a successful overcoming of the crisis period and signs of growth in high-tech service industries. Our study shows the need for state support for small businesses in high-tech service industries in crisis conditions, and identifies the possibilities of adaptation of enterprises in these industries to an unfavorable external environment. Our results may be useful for the purposes of government stimulation of economic development in the current environment.
Research on the organization of remote workplaces in Russian enterprises
Authors: Apenko Svetlana N. , Malyshev Artem A.
Published: December 2020

The article examines the contradiction between the sharp increase in the number of remote workplaces and the difficulties in their organization experienced by both employers and their employees. This problem is enhanced by the fact that in scientific publications the issues of organization of remote workplaces with the modern digital environment, mass transition to the remote work in a pandemic are poorly understood. The authors present a review of currently available scientific research and publications, which confirmed the conclusion that, along with a deep study of the essence of remote work and remote jobs, their advantages and disadvantages, the reasons for their appearance, there is a shortage of research on the organization of remote jobs. The purpose of the research presented in the article was to study the state of the organization of remote workplaces in Russian enterprises. The research hypothesis is formulated as follows: despite the intensive development of the practice of remote workplaces, there are many difficulties and problems in their organization. The study uses methods of analyzing secondary data presented on the websites of various agencies, job search services and analytical centers; questionnaire survey at Omsk enterprises. There were interviewed remote employees (481 people) and their managers (253 people) at 206 enterprises of Omsk. As a result, the growth in the number of remote jobs at Russian enterprises was confirmed. This is evidenced by research presented on the websites of the Headhunter job search service, the NAFI analytical center, and the Hays international recruitment agency. A study at the Omsk enterprises have demonstrated the existence of problems in organization of remote workplaces, for example, in equipping remote workplaces, in irregular work schedules and blurring the boundaries between work and personal life, in the lack of effective communication and social isolation of employees, in the lack of understanding of employees' career prospects. The study was conducted in the period from November 2019 to February 2020. With the onset of the pandemic and the massive forced transfer of employees to remote work, the processes of organizing remote workplaces have become even more relevant. As a result, there is planned the second stage of the study, which will further study the features of the organization of remote workplaces in the context of the pandemic. It is planned to develop a mechanism for organizing remote workplaces of specialists, taking into account the timely conditions for the functioning and development of enterprises.
Assessment of the flexibility of human resources in enterprise’s innovative projects
Authors: Romanenko Mikhail A.
Published: December 2020

The article examines the actual problem associated, on the one hand, with increasing requirements for the flexibility of human resources and management systems in conditions of increased dynamism and uncertainty of environmental factors, and, on the other hand, with the lack of scientifically based and practical approaches to assessing the flexibility of human resources with its subsequent formation. The relevance of flexibility is enhanced in relation to the human resources of innovative project teams, which are characterized by an even higher level of uncertainty, unpredictability and variability of project environment factors. This determined the purpose of the study, which is formulated as the development of a methodological approach to assessing the flexibility of human resources of innovative projects. To achieve this goal, there were set tasks of defining the concept of flexibility of human resources of projects, flexibility criteria and principles of their evaluation. The author used methods of analyzing the provisions set out in scientific publications, as well as the method of expert survey, which helped to formulate the hypotheses of the study, and then test them in practice. Using this method, 155 project managers and specialists from 36 enterprises in Russian cities were involved in the study. All enterprises implement innovative projects. The main conclusions of the expert survey were the following: innovative projects require flexible staff, flexibility is reduced to the ability to quickly and efficiently update their competencies, enterprises need methods for evaluating and developing the flexibility of human resources in projects, staff flexibility can be provided with a flexible management system. These findings became the basis for the development of a methodological approach to the assessment of flexibility, which provides for the assessment of the flexibility of people in projects and the assessment of the flexibility of project human resource management. There were proposed criteria for assessing flexibility, which are related to the assessment of the speed, depth and scale of updating the competencies of human resources of projects. The proposed developments can be useful to project managers for their activities to ensure the flexibility of innovative projects and people in these projects.
Problems of the labour market and educational services market in Irkutsk region
Authors: Andreyanova Elena L.
Published: December 2020

The article is aimed at identifying the problems of the regional labor market and the market of educational services in order to improve the system of youth employment. The paper identifies the role of education as the most important institution for the formation of the internal socio-economic potential of the territory and the development of the local community. The relevance of the problem for the Irkutsk region lies in the imbalance of supply and demand of young professionals - generation Z - in the conditions of the resource nature of the economy. The study confirmed that young people aged 20-24 are the most vulnerable in the regional labor market. The main results of the work are as follows: 1) there is no effective interaction of market participants with the changed labor claims of modern youth; 2) educational services of the Irkutsk region are not relevant to the regional labor market. Uncertainty in the interaction of market actors does not give a clear understanding of the prospects for the formation of labor skills and activates the migration of young people. As a result, the territorial labor market lacks human and educational potential, and the return on the regional structure of the resource economy does not contribute to the transformation of potential into capital. The study emphasizes that the realization of the potential of the population and the activation of territorial unification cannot be effective without a clear understanding of the vector of development of the higher education system. It is necessary to supplement the regulatory and strategic documents of the region with reasonable indicators of employment of university graduates. The results obtained can be used by regional authorities, higher education, science and business structures in order to effectively interact the territorial markets of educational services and labor.

Organization of Justice in the Ostyak-Vogul National District in the 1930s
Authors: Kodintsev Alexander Ya.
Published: December 2020

Introduction. The publication reveals the history of the organization of the Soviet justice authorities in the national regions of Western Siberia in the 1930s. The example of the activities of judicial officials shows the state policy on organizing new courts in an isolated region of Russia. Purpose. The purpose of the article is to identify the features of the organization of bodies of Soviet justice in remote areas of the north of Western Siberia. Methodology. The main methods used in the study include the historical approach, the system-structural method and the comparative analysis method. Results. Since 1931 in the northern regions of the Ural and then Omsk regions, district justice bodies have been formed. District justice bodies subordinated to themselves the people's judges, notaries and bailiffs. They performed the role of the main regional justice body in conditions of remoteness from regional courts. They faced the task of improving the personnel of law enforcement agencies in the region. They could not complete this task for objective reasons. Most justice workers were young Communists and Komsomol members who advanced in the 1920s. They tried to compensate for the low level of competence through vigorous activity. However, the purges and repressions did not allow them to stay in their workplaces for a long time. The nominees often irritated the local authorities because of their attempts to follow the law. Repressions, low pay, and harsh environmental conditions pushed judicial officers out of the system and from the region. Conclusion. The history of organizational “perturbations” in the North of Western Siberia allows us to identify general trends in the personnel policy of the Soviet state in remote regions of Russia in the 20th century.
“AUE” Extremist Criminal Community
Authors: Kleymenov Mikhail P. , Kozlowskya Margarita G. , Savelyev Andrey I.
Published: December 2020

Introduction. The recognition by the Supreme Court of the Russian Federation of the youth movement “AUE” as an extremist organization requires criminological analysis, both from the point of view of the social conditionality of a socially dangerous phenomenon, and in terms of possible criminal planning. Purpose. The goal is to consider the development of the criminal community of AUE and show what exactly determines the degree and scale of its criminality, to suggest the main directions of the strategy for countering this phenomenon. Methodology. Historical, systematic, and logical research methods are used. Results. In the historical context, the abbreviation “AUE” has several interpretations. One of them is indicated in the decision of the Supreme Court of the Russian Federation. The second sounds like this: “the convict way of life is one”, the third - “the convict urkagan unity”. In any case, we are talking about the spread of criminal ideology, which for a long time in Russia was not only ignored, but even “attached” to it in the form of perception and widespread use of Argo by professional criminals in the media. Within the framework of its activities and in its interests, members of the “AUE” committed extremist offenses, as well as mass riots. The movement's activities based on criminal and extremist ideology pose a real threat to the life and health of citizens, society and the state. The lack of attention of law enforcement agencies to this problem allowed the Association “AUE” to involve hundreds of thousands (and by some estimates - millions) of young people in its ranks and take root in the information and network space. The fascination with the younger generations ideas of the “AUE” is a natural result of the marginalization of the population, its sharp differentiation in access to standards of modern civilization, the result of the masses of poor, downtrodden people (F. M. Dostoevsky), located on the periphery of the living space - in the social and territorial dimensions. There is reason to believe that the emergence of the Association “AUE” is one of the embodiments of criminal design carried out by the criminal community of “thieves in law”. Conclusion. Association “AUE” corresponds to the characteristics of an extremist community. However, the strategy to counter this phenomenon should follow a certain order. First of all, it is necessary to block the trend of marginalization of the population. Second of all, it is necessary to establish special control over those objects where criminal ideology is especially actively implanted. The third is to ensure effective monitoring of social networks. And only in the fourth - to address the application of criminal law.
Demographic and Socio-Cultural Aspects of the Situation of the Kazakhs in Modern Uzbekistan
Authors: Abdulina Aksunkar T.
Published: December 2020

The article presents the results of studying some aspects of demographic and social relations among the Kazakhs of Uzbekistan, who were subjected to assimilation in the post-Soviet period. The decrease in the quantitative indicators of the Kazakh ethnic group was caused by the migration outflow to Kazakhstan, where the policy of repatriation of ethnic Kazakhs and their socio-cultural adaptation is being pursued. Despite the declaration and implementation of a policy of broad tolerance towards ethnic and confessional groups in Independent Uzbekistan, under the presidency of I. Karimov, ethnicity was eroded, which led to reduction in the number of educational institutions with the Kazakh language of instruction, the representation of Kazakhs in power structures, etc. Under the new president Sh. Mirziyoev, some positive trends in the state of the Kazakh diaspora in Uzbekistan were outlined.
Instructional Strategies of First Omsk Students
Authors: Mulina Svetlana A.
Published: December 2020

This article reconstructs the educational strategies of the first students of the Omsk agricultural Institute, built in the conditions of the Civil war. The author concludes that the 1918-1921 intake students can be considered as one generation with common socio-cultural orientations, which included, in particular, the desire for education. As a result of difficult material and living conditions, the first students’ learning strategies take the form of survival strategies. Under these conditions, students chose two options: either temporarily discontinue their studies and overcome life difficulties together with their close and distant relatives; or to mobilize efforts to complete their education as soon as possible.
Farewell to Tradition: Rationalism of the Biblical Studies in the Later Russian Empire
Authors: Krikh Sergey B.
Published: December 2020

The article considers the increase in rationalization in the research of Biblical history and its conclusions in the historical works of pre-revolutionary Russia. A. P. Lopukhin wrote his work at the end of the 19th century and his main goal was the Biblical apologetics based on new Near Eastern studies. The works of N. M. Nikolsky, who used materialistic methodology and suppose that the significant part of Biblical stories contains a little historical truth had a great contrast with the views of Lopukhin. The reasons for this evolution connected with two factors: the big successes of foreign Biblical studies and the abolition of censorship restrictions after 1905.
The Influence of the Social Environment on the Formation of Ethnic Mentality
Authors:   North Caucasus Federal University, Yushchenko Vitaly Nikolayevich
Published: December 2020

The paper briefly examines the history of the introduction into scientific use of the concept of “mentality”. In the aspect of the personalistic philosophical approach, the author analyzes the reasons for the difficulties arising in its definition. It is argued that the phenomenon of mentality is subjective and objective in nature, therefore, its certain reification in socio-philosophical discourse is inevitable. However, the excessive emphasis of the researcher on the a priori personality of the qualities of one or another ethnic mentality should not be considered correct. Closer to the truth will be the understanding of mentality as an a posteriori and relative totality of personality traits acquired under the influence of a particular social environment. The conclusion is made that the social environment is the most important factor in the formation of ethnic mentality. Under its direct influence, the processes of socialization of individuals take place, the experience of generations is transmitted and improved. However, one should also take into account the reverse influence of the formed ethnic mentality on the social environment. The social environment and ethnic mentality mutually condition each other, and the person, logically and historically, acts as an active constructive principle, whose creative work is possible only in conditions of social life.

Published: December 2020

Based on the content analysis of “non-ethnic” mass media in the federal subjects of Russia in the North Caucasus, the attempt to determine the place of ethnicity in the information field of the region and the influence of these sources on the processes of politicization/depoliticization of ethnicity is made in the paper. It was revealed that the topic “historical memory” is the leading one in ethnically marked publications. The next places in the thematic classi-fier are occupied by “ethnic identity” and “ethnic traditions and values”. Along with this, the dis-course of modernization turned out to be in de-mand, which indicates that the North Caucasus is in a situation of search for an optimal balance between old and new, traditions and innovations. Only one case of the use of the concept of “nation” as a syn-onym for the Russian (“Rossiyan”) nation has been identified, however, references to the nation in the ethnic sense are extremely rare. It is concluded that the “non-ethnic” media of the North Caucasus keep ethnic and confessional issues within public dis-course, but it is not “superfluous”, i. e. the tendency to politicize ethnicity is not typical or explicit.

Published: December 2020

The number of female leaders, as well as their influ-ence on the diplomatic arena, has been rising in recent years. Taking the case of current Russian MFA spokeswoman Maria Zakharova, who enjoys popularity among the Chinese public, this work evaluates the advantages of female diplomats on promoting public diplomacy. By analyzing Chinese audiences’ social media comments on Zakharova and her statements through comparative analysis and rating, the paper concludes that Zakharova con-tributes to create an overall favorable national image of Russia in China. In the era of globalization, it is important to encourage women to actively partici-pate in public diplomacy. Russia with a large num-ber of female leaders has great potential in pushing its diplomacy forward.

This paper discusses the implementation of the Federal labor Inspectorate’s powers in the digital economy during the ongoing administrative reform. The effectiveness of this state structure is affected by its dual legal nature, such as the power of labor inspectors is aimed at protecting the rights of em-ployees. In the conditions of the digital economy and the presence of a pandemic, labor rights are fully protected, and the power of Rostrud is limited in relation to supervised objects by prohibiting cer-tain inspections. Under current conditions, the most essential activity of Rostrud is the need to form an electronic supervision system based on the results of the ongoing legal experiment on the introduction of electronic personnel document management. The use of an electronic signature in the activities of Rostrud is the first step in the possibility of imple-menting an electronic surveillance system, which was catalyzed by the pandemic. We believe that elec-tronic supervision will be the next stage of moderni-zation of Rostrud’s activities in the digital economy.

Authors:   Heihe University (China), Lu Jingjing , Wang Yanan ,   Heihe University (China)
Published: December 2020

A large number of Asian students are currently studying in the Russian Far East. The vast majority of them are Chinese students. Sociological studies of various aspects of their stay in the Far East are still quite rare. The study of the characteristics and typification of their intercultural interpersonal communication with Russian students can contribute to understanding the most optimal ways of their adaptation in a foreign cultural environment. The present study provides the results of a research conducted by the authors among foreign students at the beginning of 2020 in five Far Eastern universities. The study revealed a number of significant shortcomings in the organization of educational and extracurricular life of Chinese students, which hinder their full immersion in the Russian language environment. The language barrier is the main obstacle in the process of interpersonal intercultural communication between Russian and Chinese students. The study provides recommendations on the proper organization of educational, extracurricular activities, as well as living in a dormitory for Chinese students, which can help improve intercultural interpersonal communication between Chinese and Russian students.

Published: December 2020

The study provides a characteristic of the French model of higher musical education with a pronounced national specificity, which consists of a special division into levels, or cycles, with its own system of naming academic degrees, awarding diplomas, etc. The authors revealed that the organization of a complex “organism” of the musical education system, presented in a variety of types of public and private institutions, is based on the principle of complementarity of curricula and the identity of competitive examinations. The phenomenon of the high status of university music education is especially noteworthy. Although until recently it concerned mainly musicology and pedagogy, in the last two decades, obtaining an academic degree approved by the higher conservatory together with the university has become prestigious for musicians of various specialties, including concert performers.

Tomat merupakan salah satu komoditas tanaman hortikultura penting di Indonesia. Seiring dengan perkembangan teknologi, sudah banyak dikembangkan varietas tomat baru yang mempunyai karakter-karakter yang diinginkan antara lain tahan akan penyakit, produktivitas tinggi tinggi, kandungan nutrisi tinggi dan lain-lain. Penerapan teknologi melalui pendekatan hormonal sangat penting untuk menghasilkan jenis tomat baru, diantaranya adalah hormone etilen dan auksin. Kedua hormone tersebut sangat berpengaruh terhadap pertumbuhan dan hasil tomat khususnya untuk menghasilkan tomat yang adaptif pada kondisi lingkungan tercekam dan ketahanan simpan buah yang tinggi. Teknologi mutasi pada kedua hormone tersebut sudah dapat menghasilkan tomat yang diinginkan diantaranya adalah tomat iaa9-3 yang merupakan tomat yang mengalami mutase pada gen IAA9 dengan karakter yang dihasilkan berupa buah tanpa biji dan tomat Sletr1-2 yang merupakan tomat yang mengalami mutase pada gen SlETR1 dengan karakter yang dihasilkan berupa buah tomat tahan simpan.  Dalam review ini akan dibahas bagaimana peranan auksin, etilen dan peranan mutasi dalam menghasilkan tomat tanpa biji dan tahan simpan, serta persektif masa depan dalam pengembangan tomat di Indonesia.
Pertumbuhan dan hasil benih kentang go pada komposisi media tanam dan interval pemberian air yang berbeda di dataran medium
Authors: Hamdani Jajang Sauman
Published: December 2020

Salah satu faktor yang mempengaruhi dan menjadi kendala produksi kentang di Indonesia  adalah ketersediaan  benih kentang  yang memiliki kualitas dan kuantitas  baik, masih rendah serta belum memenuhi kebutuhan. Sedangkan, benih merupakan kunci sukses budidaya kentang. Diantara permasalahan produksi benih kentang generasi ke-0 (G0) adalah perbaikan kualitas media tanam dan rendahnya jumlah ubi benih yang dihasilkan. Sehubungan hal tersebut maka perlu dilakukan kajian  yang terintegrasi antara rekayasa lingkungan media tanam dan interval pemberian air. Percobaan ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui interaksi antara komposisi media tanam dengan interval pemberian air terhadap produksi  benih kentang G0 di dataran medium. Percobaan dilaksanakan di Kebun Percobaan, Fakultas Pertanian, Universitas Padjadjaran, Kampus Jatinangor. Rancangan percobaan yang digunakan yaitu Rancangan Acak Kelompok (RAK) Split Plot Design. Faktor pertama adalah komposisi media tanam yang terdiri dari campuran tanah+kompos+arang sekam+cocopeat  (2:1:1:1, 3:1:1:1, dan  4:1:1:1) ), dan anak petak  adalah interval pemberian air (1, 2, dan 3 hari sekali)Hasil penelitian  menunjukkan tidak terdapat interaksi antara komposisi media tanam dan interval pemberian air  terhadap pertumbuhan dan hasil benih kentang G0 kultivar Medians di dataran medium. Komposisi media tanah : kompos : arang sekam : cocopeat (3 : 1 : 1 : 1) memberikan nilai rata-rata tertinggi terhadap  , konduktansi stomata, ,tinggi tanaman, luas daun, bobot kering tanaman, jumlah  stolon, persentasi stolon membentuk ubi, jumlah ubi yang lebih banyak  (6.55 knol/ tanaman) dan bobot ubi G0 (31.72 g/tanaman)  yang lebih tinggi.

Partial Characterization of Glucoamylase Crude Enzyme Produced by Aspergillus and Rhizopus Strains
Authors: Abdelwahab Suhair Ahmed
Published: December 2020

Glucoamylase is widely used in the food industry to produce high glucose syrup, and also in fermentation processes for production of beer and ethanol. In this work glucoamylase enzyme produced by six fungal strains were previously isolated from different Sudanese soils, crop seeds, rotten fruits and pieces of moistened bread  designated as Aspergillus awamori (A1and A7), A. niger (A10) , A. tamari (Aw), A. terrus (At) and Rhizous oryzae (R3) in a liquid culture was evaluated and characterized. The maximum temperature of glucoamylase activity are found to be in the range of 60-70˚C and at pH value of 5.0-6.0 and the activity of all enzymes from all isolates increased with increase of the concentration of soluble starch. Also the activity of the enzyme from all isolates under study increase with increase of time reaction.
Application of an Innovate Energy Balance to Investigate Viscoelastic Problems
Authors: Shahsavari Saeed , Mehran Moradi
Published: December 2020

Modeling and investigating of energy distribution especially the wasted one is very important in viscoelastic problems. In this article, an applied energy model based on separation of energy components of the system is extracted and expanded to apply in linear viscoelastic problems, although this method is applicable in nonlinear problems as well. It is assumed that the whole energy of the system can be divided into two parts: Residual and non-inertial energies. The non-inertial energy is the sum of the energies that do not depend on the inertia of the system, while residual energy is the remaining of total energy. When an amount of energy is applied to the system, by determining the non-inertial energy from a novel energy conservation equation, the residual energy can be calculated. Some basic viscoelastic examples are investigated and obtained results will be compared with the expected ones.
Non-Convex Penalized Estimation of Count Data Responses via Generalized Linear Model (GLM)
Authors: Olanrewaju Rasaki Olawale , Ojo Johnson Funminiyi
Published: December 2020

This study provided a non-convex penalized estimation procedure via Smoothed Clipped Absolute Deviation (SCAD) and Minimax Concave Penalty (MCP) for count data responses to checkmate the problem of covariates exceeding the sample size . The Generalized Linear Model (GLM) approach was adopted in obtaining the penalized functions needed by the MCP and SCAD non-convex penalizations of Binomial, Poisson and Negative-Binomial related count responses regression. A case study of the colorectal cancer with six (6) covariates against sample size of five (5) was subjected to the non-convex penalized estimation of the three distributions. It was revealed that the non-convex penalization of Binomial regression via MCP and SCAD best explained four un-penalized covariates needed in determining whether surgical or therapy ideal for treating the turmoil.
The Role of Private Sectors for Trade Liberalizatio in Connection with Export Promotion
Authors: Ahadu Eprem , Chufamo Ageze
Published: December 2020

In contemporary world the neoliberal economists have pursued to establish the thought that economic liberalization consistently promotes growth and decreases poverty in less developed countries. Liberalization of markets in the developing countries, according to them, promotes exports and it will create economic perfection by intensifying competition between domestic and external economic actors and exposing management and workers to improved practices  Did the market liberalization policies of Ethiopia is helpful?  This paper surveys the literature and provides its own assessment of the nexus between private sector and trade liberalization in connection with export promotion. The country's step wise liberalization process has shown some favourable prospects for investment and growth. However, the next steps, liberalizing the capital account and leaving the exchange rate to be determined in the market, among other things, require a skillful design. The capital account which is still left unliberalized has to wait for some time till the economy ensures a sustainable capacity of generating foreign currencies. Otherwise economic instability would follow and consequently, the reform process would be as stake.
