Abstract: Due to the ongoing digitalization of the economy, the study of digital traces in the framework of forensic examinations in criminal cases in the field of economic activity is one of the most relevant topics in forensic expert science. The purpose of this study is to identify and analyze the features of the production of complex forensic economic and computer–technical expertise in the study of digital traces, to determine the limits of competence of an expert economist in the expert study of digital traces. Within the framework of the study, the author set the following tasks: to analyze the types of crimes in the field of economics and the ways of their commission for the possibility of the formation of digital traces during the implementation of these offenses, to determine the types of digital traces characteristic of crimes in the field of economic activity, to determine the appropriateness of the appointment of comprehensive examinations, to analyze an example of expert practice for the use of special economic knowledge and special knowledge in the field of forensic computer-technical expertise.The author came to the conclusion that the appointment of a comprehensive forensic computer-technical and economic expertise is unnecessary in most cases, since the simultaneous joint participation of an expert economist and an expert in the field of IT technologies in writing an opinion and formulating a general conclusion is not necessary in most cases when investigating crimes in the field of economic activity. As a rule, the participation of a specialist in the field of IT technologies is sufficient to withdraw computer information from the carrier and then provide this information to an expert economist for research. At the same time, an expert economist is able to work independently with software products and computer files, for the study of which there is enough well-known knowledge.

Abstract: The article notes that private military companies have been functioning in the world for more than 40 years. Since 2012 in the US, Britain, France, Israel and Belgium their amount has significantly risen.

In Russia there are almost no private military companies. At the same time, some foreign military companies work on our territory under the contracts with NATO member-states. The necessity of private military companies in Russia creation has been discussed in the Russian society for more than 2 years, and this idea is supported by some legislators and military specialists. This article analyzes the range of problems which could be solved by the creation of private military companies in Russia. The methodology of the article is based on the up-todate achievements of epistemology. The author uses the theoretical and general philosophical methods (dialectics, the system method, analysis, synthesis, analogy, deduction, observation, modeling), the traditional juridical methods (formal logical), and the methods which are used in the specific sociological research (statistical, expert evaluation, etc.).

Abstract: Effi ciency of implementation of the functions of federal executive government bodies is directly related to their normative and legal regulation. The multi-aspect character of functions of federal executive bodies predefi nes the existence of various departmental normative legal acts (bylaws) regulating administrative activities. The variety of administrative activities of federal executive bodies in turn presupposes the existence of the procedure for preparation, adoption and registration of such acts. As the practice shows the federal executive bodies adopt many normative legal acts, which contradict the federal laws and other normative legal acts of higher legal standing. The methodological basis for the scientifi c article was formed by the current achievements of the theory of cognition. In the process of studies the author used general philosophical, theoretical and empiric methods (dialectics, systemic method, analysis, synthesis, analogy, deduction, observation, modeling), traditional legal methods ( formal logic method), and methods typical for specifi c sociological studies (statistical, expert evaluation, etc.). Normative legal acts of federal executive bodies play a central role within the mechanism of implementation of prescriptions of federal laws, orders and decrees of the President and the Government, etc. That is why the legal nature of normative legal acts of executive bodies has been drawing attention of both legal scholars and legal practitioners for many years. It is due to the fact that about 2000 normative legal acts are adopted at the federal level annually in Russia, and each of them holds its own special place within the legislative system, having relevant legal force and regulating a specifi c group of social relations.

Abstract: At the current stage of development of transportation and transportation infrastructure we face the new challenges for the formation of complex transportation security system. For example, in 2012 the number of car accidents grew by 10 per cent, while the number of accidents of air and water transportation vehicles grew by 3,4 per cent, and the number of railroad accidents grew by 5,6 per cent. Annually about 100 000 people die in transport-related accidents in the Russian Federation. The above-mentioned data substantiates the need to improve administrative legal regulation in the sphere of transportation and transportation infrastructure. The issues of personal, social and public security were always among the central attention focuses of state and civil society. Economic globalization, terrorist threats, and lack of stability in financial and political situations in many states make us change the perspective of global security issues, including the sphere of transportation, being vulnerable in the current conditions. Development of the national transportation system becomes a necessary prerequisite for the implementation of an innovative economic growth model of the Russian Federation and the improvement of the quality of life of the people. In spite of positive tendencies within certain types of transportation, the transportation system does not fully meet the needs and perspectives of the development of the Russian Federation. The unbalanced and unharmonious development of some types of transportation in the conditions of limited investment resources caused them to have irrational share within the national transportation balance.
