Abstract: This article examines the counterterrorism policy of Germany during the third term of Angela Merkel, when the spread of terrorist threat in the territory of Germany has increased. The subject of this research is the activity of law enforcement authorities in development and implementation of German counterterrorism policy strategy, which include preemptive and prevention measures, forcible methods, and share of intelligence between the departments. The goal of this work consists in analysis and assessment of the achievements and failures of counterterrorism policy of Germany. Neorealism served as the key approach used in the course of this research. The conclusion is made that successfully consolidated activity of Merkel’s government and law enforcement authorities led to decrease in the number of terrorist attacks and strengthening of political stability in Germany. For indicating achievements and problematic aspects of German counterterrorism activity during the indicated period, the author translated from German the reports of law enforcement authorities on the instances of violence and prevented terrorist attacks, as well as mass media materials testifying to successful prevention of terrorist attacks. The acquired materials can be valuable in teaching corresponding disciplines and within the framework of scientific research.

The author also reaches a conclusion on the stability of modern Russia. Using general science and specific methods and approaches enables the author to determine the main criteria for political stability and to point out some of the mechanisms for its sustenance. The fruits of the author's work which were reflected in this article may be used by professionals in scientific research in the area at hand.

Abstract: The article analyzes the history and current state of the US national missile defense system deployment in Europe in the context of the evolution of Russia - NATO relations. To prove the thesis of the inefficiency of placement of the defense complex for the purposes of protection against Iranian missiles, the author pays special attention to the analysis of its technical capabilities. The methodological basis of the study consists of the systemic, structural-functional, comparative-historical, comparative-political, geo-political, cultural and civilizational approaches, the methods of analysis, synthesis, induction, deduction, modeling, observation. The NMD deployment project in Eastern Europe is incapable of enhancing the defensive capabilities of Europe, nor the U.S., nor Russia. The partnership between the two parties can be continued only on the basis of equality, within the framework of international law on the basis of legally binding intergovernmental agreements.

Abstract: Brazil is the largest country in size and population in comparison to other Latin American countries,
and it is the seventh largest economy in the world by nominal GDP. Since the mid 2000’s, Brazil has become
a more attractive global player: it has diversified its economy and its partnerships, and launched the Growth Acceleration
Plan (2007) in order to increase investment in infrastructure and provide tax incentives for economic
growth. Brazil has also decreased domestic poverty through development plans: according to the World Bank,
poverty (people living with USD 2 per day) has fallen from 21% of the population in 2003 to 11% in 2009. An
overall view of Brazilian economy shows that the level of foreign direct investment is increasing, the wages are rising,
the middle class in growing, and the unemployment rate is low, which offers a wide range of opportunities in
different areas. Despite the positive scenario, Brazil is an emerging economy and faces issues and challenges to be
surpassed. Brazil is a thriving economy that welcomes foreign investment that is aligned with its main principles.
It is also a global player in economic terms and in global and regional issues. The 2014 elections are coming and
the unpredictable political and economic scenario is once more arriving. The commercial and economic partnerships
should remain both diversified and traditionalist, with Brazil’s national interests set as priorities.
