Abstract: The article is aimed at determining the place of financial law institutions in the fight against such a threat to the economic security of the state, society, and the individual as the shadow economy. A significant number of publications by both domestic and foreign scientists are devoted to this phenomenon. Special attention is paid to reduction methods. However, for many scientific studies, an approach is typical, which boils down to listing, sometimes disclosing, specific ways and techniques of detenevization of the economy without taking into account its "natural" connection with such institutions of financial law as taxation, financial control, monetary regulation and others. It is obvious that, individually and collectively, these institutions can become an impulse for both the growth and suppression of shadow economic activity. In view of this, the purpose of the study is to substantiate the objective need to modify the institutions of financial law in order to reduce shadow economic phenomena. The set of research methods used by the author of the article is represented by two groups: general scientific and private scientific. The first of them includes: analysis, synthesis, induction, deduction. Based on them, the relationship between the categories "economic security", "shadow economy", "public and private finance" has been established. The second one includes absolute and relative statistical values, on the basis of which the processes taking place in the field of finance are characterized. The result of the study was to clarify the place of financial law institutions in the mechanism of countering shadow economic phenomena. Among them, a special place is given to the taxation system, which carries both the causes of shadowization and the potential to reduce the volume of "informal" economic activity by reducing the fiscal burden on business entities and individuals. The emphasis is also placed on monetary regulation tools used to track the financial flows of microactors, including those typical for the shadow environment. The above approach to the application of financial law institutions makes it possible to expand the tools for leveling shadow economic phenomena. In addition, the implementation of the formulated recommendations will have a positive impact on the state of the financial system of the state as a whole and its individual links in particular.

Abstract: The analysis of the provisions of economic science reveals the need for replacing the resource-based economy for innovative, which is explained by the growing scarcity of economic resources in the context of increasing demands of the actors for economic goods. However, most scientific elaborations focus solely on the positive consequences of implementation of innovations, rather than negative caused by the unwillingness of economic entities to innovative changes due to shortage of resources, scant involvement of the government agencies of meso-level in the process of simulating innovative initiatives, low interest of the end consumer in the innovative product. The goal of this article lies in substantiation of feasibility of using individual approach towards meso-formations in the context of switching the economic course, which would take into account the internal territorial peculiarities and impede the emergence of borderline-dangerous conditions. Assessment is conducted on the readiness of regional economies for innovative changes, which confirming high differentiation of meso-formations by a number of criteria that reflect the state of the local innovative environment. Based on the calculations and subsequent analysis carried out on the resource capacity of the territories, the author concluded on infeasibility of application of the “typical” rearrangement of the vector of their socioeconomic development.

Abstract: This article is dedicated to examination of the “green” economy – the economic model with priorities similar to the goals of sustainable development; its postulates are of particular importance in the context of increasing negative anthropogenic impact upon the environment. The majority of scientific publications discuss the advantages of transitioning toward the “green” course, which are indisputable from the perspective of preservation and augmentation of natural potential of the territory; while the factors that impede the proliferation of eco-oriented behavior, consequences of implementation such transformations for macro- and micro-actors, and assessment of the existing eco-trends in public law entities do not receive due attention. Therefore, this article aims to determine the impact of “green” reforms upon the socioeconomic interests of macro- and micro-actors leaning on the results of analysis of the characteristic features of the process of greening of economic activity. In the course of research, the author establishes that the “green” vector of economic development entails not only positive changes for macro- and micro-actors, but negative as well, which discourages their eco-activity. At the same time, the assessment of environmental situation in the constituent entities of the Russian Federation indicates the low eco-involvement of economic agents, which requires immediate implementation of environmental initiatives, although considering other public and private interests.

Abstract: This article presents the original approach towards assessment of human potential of the territory from the perspective of economic security. Despite a wide variety of scientific publications that touch upon the issues of assessing the quantity and quality of human resources, there is no comprehensive research on them as a structural element of the system of ensuring economic security of the country and its administrative-territorial units. At the same time, the development of human capital significantly impacts the level of economic security of public legal entities, and the indicators that characterize its state may serve as the “markers” that allow tracing the instance of occurrence of the borderline states that threaten territorial economy. In light of this, the author aims to develop the indicators that on the one hand describe the provision of territorial-economic complex with labor resources, and on the other hand the fulfillment of socioeconomic needs of the population. Combined, they determine the degree of protection of the territorial economy from threats that arise due to the changes in quantitative and qualitative parameters of human capital. In the course of this research, the author develops the system of coefficients that reflect the parameters of human potential of the territory, constant monitoring and comparison with the “threshold” values, which are objectively required for assessing the level of economic security of meso-formations. It is suggested to include relative, tempo-based indicators in the list. Their application is oriented towards determination of changes in the quantity and quality of human resources and the predisposition of the territorial-economic complex to strengthening (weakening) the destructive socioeconomic processes.

Abstract: Leaning on the analysis of the provisions of economic science, which article assesses interrelation between the links of financial system of the country on the one hand, and the impact of the level of financial soundness of businesses and households upon financial security of public law entities on the other; as well as dependence of satisfaction of needs of the individual in public goods on the fullness of centralized monetary funds. Such dependence requires peculiar approach towards determination of financial self-sufficiency of micro-and macroeconomic agents; however, the majority of elaborations focus solely on the public finance, which become the reason for emergence of borderline state of regional economy upon the criterion of its protection from threats – conditionally secure or pseudo secure. In this regard, the goal of this article lies in development of the system of financial-economic indicators and their threshold values; its implementation is aimed at identification of negative trend – indicators of destructive processes in the national economy. The following methods were applied in the course of this research: general scientific – analysis, synthesis, induction, deduction for revealing the peculiarities of ensuring economic security of public law entities in the financial sector; specific scientific – statistical analysis for assessing financial-economic parameters of development of the territory; methods of qualitative assessment of the systems for differentiating the regions upon the criterion of security from financial threats. Considering mutual impact of public and private finance, the author develops the system of financial-economic indicators, the positive dynamics of which testifies to consolidation of financial self-sufficiency of economy of the territory; while negative dynamics in the medium and long-term period testifies to destabilization of certain vital processes of macro - and micro-subjects. Its peculiarity consists in combination of basic and additional coefficients that reflect financial situation of economic agents of various level and determination of their “thresholds”. Implementation of the author's approach in assessment of functionality of financial system of the country is aimed at identification of occurrence causes of borderline dangerous economic states of the territories.

Abstract: Based on the analysis of provisions of economic science, this article characterizes the state of national economy from the perspective of protectability from negative activities of various origin. In most works the emphasis is placed on its diametrically opposite states – secure and dangerous; but there are also borderline states of conditionally secure and pseudo-secure, which do not receive due attention in the scientific publications. In this regard, the goal is to eliminate the terminological gap that exists in economic science, substantiated by the absence of approaches towards demarcation of these states, by decomposing the definition of “economic pseudo-security”. The result of the conducted research consists in explication of the term “economic pseudo-security” based on specification of attributive features as pseudo-dynamism, pseudo-sustainability, and pseudo-protectability. The inner content of each of the aforementioned criteria is described through their distinctive features. These acquired results are aimed at broadening of theoretical provisions of economic science and systematization of knowledge on the economic security. Usage of separate parameters of pseudo-security would allow the subject of protection, i. e. the state, promptly responding to alternation of the course of socioeconomic processes on macro- and micro-levels in order to prevent the development of borderline states of national economy and their possible later transition into the dangerous.  

Abstract: In the article, by analyzing the provisions of economic science, the features of various models of the economy – socially oriented, "green", innovative, digital - are characterized, which made it possible to formulate advantages and disadvantages for economic agents in the transition to each. In most developments, the emphasis is placed on the positive aspects of replacing the general line of economic development, however, the unwillingness of an individual, society, state, and its structural units to reform can become a threat to the security of the territory's economy, provoking the emergence of its borderline states – conditionally safe, pseudo-safe, which grow into dangerous when ignored. Therefore, the purpose of the article was to clarify the attributes of the schemes listed above, which served as a justification for the need to switch to a multi-purpose geographically oriented economy model on the scale of the Russian Federation.The research was carried out using the following methods: general scientific – analysis, synthesis, induction, deduction, which allowed to reveal the characteristic features of various economic models; private scientific – SWOT analysis, through which positive and negative consequences for economic entities were determined when choosing a new economic course. In the course of the study, the judgment about the ambiguity of the results of the introduction of a particular model of the economy is substantiated. The position is argued according to which the change of the vector of economic development in public legal entities of different levels should be implemented taking into account their internal potential, and neglect of its condition can cause the emergence of border states of the territory's economy on the basis of protection from negative activities - conditionally safe, pseudo–safe. In view of the high degree of differentiation of Russian regions, in order to avoid increasing imbalances, a model of a multi-purpose geographically-oriented economy is proposed, in the construction of which emphasis is placed on local features. The presented results are aimed at expanding the provisions of economic science. And the use of the author's approach to the restructuring of the economic model in relation to the subjects of the Russian Federation will minimize fruitless attempts to change the socio-economic guidelines of their development.
