Abstract:

Anticorruption policy in Russia.

Abstract:
The well-known Russian writer and historian N.M. Karamzin, when asked to define the situation in Russia in 1810 in short, said: “Everyone steals”. The famous Russian poet A.S. Pushkin characterized the Russian bureaucracy of 1822 by saying that “Starting with the Councellor to the smallest of the protocol keepers, everyone was stealing and everything was for sale”. It does not seem that the time mended the problem. Currently (and not for the first time either), there are more and more people speaking in favor for more cruel sanctions applied to the officials, who are involved in bribery”. However, once the powers of the law-enforcement bodies are broadened beyond the certain extent, there is another evil – the tyranny of the law-enforcement bodies. This article by I.L. Trunov is devoted to the historical analysis of the issue, and it also includes practics.

On the issue of new tendencies in conflict resolution in the sphere of disputes on rights of ownership in the courts of Western Europe and the USA in the late XX century.
// Politics and Society.
2007. ¹ 1.
P. 4-13.
URL: https://en.nbpublish.com/library_read_article.php?id=53140
Abstract:
The period of time, which is the subject to this study includes into itself two opposite tendencies. One of these tendencies, embodied in Art. 544 of the Civil Code of France of 1804, is that “Property is a right to use and dispose of things in a most absolute way”. In other words, this tendency presupposes that any owner can satisfy any interest, flowing from his ownership of a thing. The nature of the second tendency can be shown on an example of Art. 153 of the Constitution of the German Empire of August 11, 1919. “The ownership implies obligations. Use of property should at the same time serve the common good”. Thus, the owner has to facilitate the common good. How was the compromise found between these two tendencies?

On religious education in schools (based on the roundtables at the RIA “Novosti” and IA “Rosbalt”).
// Politics and Society.

P. 14-18.
URL: https://en.nbpublish.com/library_read_article.php?id=53138
Abstract:
At the start of the new study year in some regions of Russia the problems of religious classes at schools gained new topicality. Namely, from September 1, 2006 on, the state schools in Belgorodsky and Bryansky oblasts introduced an obligatory subject: “Basic Orthodox Christian Culture” (BOCC). In more than 30 subjects of the Russian Federation such subjects are introduced as optional, however, formally optional subjects often end up as obligatory (e.g. when they’re introduced as 2nd or 3rd class in the middle of the day schedule and the students can’t miss them. Can one then say that the school becomes the testing grounds for religious and ideological influence on children, and textbooks on BOCC contradict the constitutional requirements of secular education?

Abstract:
Ministry of Regional Development of the Russian Federation now becomes a federal body empovered to develop unified policy on the relationships between various religions and the state. One may imagine that in the near future we shall see the State Concept of Policy on Religions, developed by the MRD together with the Chair of Religious Studies of the Russian Academy of State Service. If so, this is a rather sad prediction for the freedom of conscience in Russia.
