Innovative solutions for forming supply chains in the conditions of economic instability
No full textThe article examines the changes in the requirements for the development and implementation of innovations in the process of forming and improving supply chains in the face of increasing economic instability. Economic instability is presented as the most important trend in the modern economy and significant factor forming new requirements for supply chains. This, in turn, involves the improvement of applied technologies and development of new technologies, as well as the search for progressive technical and managerial solutions to meet the interests of a wide range of business entities and consumers of goods and services. A distinctive feature of this study is the fact that economic instability is viewed by the authors through the prism of both economic and non-economic processes having, inter alia, an impact on the economic system, including political, military, environmental, epidemiological and other processes. The article focuses on the COVID-19 coronavirus pandemic, as well as its impact on logistics solutions, and the specific demands on supply chains. It is substantiated that the introduction of technical and managerial innovations in this area will allow us to take into account the features and consequences of the impact of COVID-19 on the economy and to effectively influence the processes associated with improving supply chains. Thus, it will ensure compliance with the requirements and conditions determined by modern conditions associated with increased economic instability
Оценка общественного мнения о соблюдении антиотмывочного законодательства в России
No full textCompliance with legislation in general and the Federal Law “On Combating Legalization (Laundering) of Criminally Obtained Incomes and Financing of Terrorism" (AML / CFT) in particular, is a civic duty of the population and officials. At the same time, the media and Internet resources inform about its violation quite often. In this regard, the authors aimed to study the specialists’ value attitudes in relation to the AML/CFT law. For this purpose, a sociological survey was conducted on a multistage sample. The results were processed utilizing the adapted Table of Eleven (T11) methodology, based on the concept of rational choice, the theory of justified actions and the normative theory of law. To study the factors that affect compliance with the anti-money laundering law, the authors summarized and analyzed the opinions of the special officials of commercial banks, the AML / CFT specialists of the Central Bank of the Russian Federation, and the employees of units for combating economic and organized crime of law enforcement agencies. The results of the study indicate that the state anti-money laundering policy resonates with the special officials, the law itself is clear and understandable to the executors. However, control over banks, sanctions against violators and the indifference of the population and the business community in information interaction with regulatory authorities do not contribute to full compliance with the provisions of anti-money laundering legislation. Measures for the development of general solidarity in society and the expansion of financial literacy programs among entrepreneurs are called upon to significantly improve the environment for the implementation of the law.

No full textThe use of digital technologies in the administration of justice in the field of environmental crime
No full textIn the present paper the authors consider technological and legal problems that arise in the course of adopting information technology in legal proceedings. The authors analyze the efficiency of using digital technologies in the administration of justice within the crisis period of 2020 on the basis of the World Justice Project, worked out by the Council of European Commission for the Efficiency of Justice CEPEJ. These technologies are used by both courts of the Russian Federation and courts of some other countries. The paper presents the analysis of prospects to apply artificial intelligence in the work of courts during adjudication on certain categories of disputes (issuance of a court order, consideration of cases as summary judgment proceedings). In order to ensure accessibility of justice, the authors urge on necessity to turn to online legal proceedings; they also highlight the necessity to organize special legal services for individuals (free-of-charge) and for business entities. The paper calls for the urgency to create a special digital portal for pretrial settlement of disputes between legal entities
Teaching russian as a foreign language in the modern educational paradigm: training dictionaries
No full textThe work is devoted to the problem of intensification of teaching Russian as a foreign language in the process of formation and development of the lexical competence of students. The role of educational dictionaries of various types is emphasized. The Experimental Electronic Multilingual Dictionary of Military Terms is presented. It is based on ABBYY Lingvo software for teaching Russian to foreign students of military universities. His vocabulary includes a special vocabulary describing various segments of military activity (weapons, equipment, commands, military life, etc.). For each word there are translations into European languages (boi - English batttle, combat; French combat (m); Portuguese combate) and Asian languages (Laos ; Arabic ; Pashto ). The potential of an electronic multilingual dictionary in the implementation of multicultural and professionally oriented teaching of Russian as a foreign language in a non-linguistic university is identified. The role of the electronic translated multilingual thesaurus in the formation of speech professional competence, which ensures the removal of language barriers in the study of military-technical sciences by foreigners, is determined. The universality of the dictionary is characterized. It was created taking into account those national languages whose speakers receive special education in Russian military universities, and provides opportunities for the redistribution of classroom and independent work of students. Its effectiveness has been proven as a tool for modern interactive, multilingual and multicultural education

No full textPresence of viremia during febrile neutropenic episodes in patients undergoing chemotherapy for malignant neoplasms
No full textThe importance of viral infections as a leading cause of morbidity and mortality is well documented in severely immunosuppressed patients undergoing allogeneic stem cell transplantation. By contrast, viral infections generally receive less attention in patients with malignant disorders undergoing chemotherapy, where the onset of neutropenic fever is mostly associated with bacterial or fungal infections, and screening for viral infections is not routinely performed. To address the occurrence of invasive viral infections in a clinical setting commonly associated with less pronounced immunosuppression, we have prospectively screened 237 febrile neutropenic episodes in pediatric (n = 77) and adult (n = 69) patients undergoing intensive chemotherapy, primarily for treatment of acute leukemia. Serial peripheral blood specimens were tested by RQ-PCR assays for the presence and quantity of the clinically relevant viruses CMV, EBV, HHV6 and HAdV, commonly reactivated in highly immunocompromised patients. Viremia was documented in 36 (15%) episodes investigated, including the detection of HHV6 (n = 14), EBV (n = 15), CMV (n = 6), or HAdV (n = 1). While low or intermediate levels of viremia (<104 virus copies/mL) were commonly associated with bacterial or fungal co-infection, viremia at higher levels (>104 copies/mL) was documented in patients without evidence for other infections, raising the possibility that at least in some instances the onset of fever may have been attributable to the virus detected. The observations suggest that viral infections, potentially resulting from reactivation, might also play a clinically relevant role in patients receiving chemotherapy for treatment of malignant neoplasms, and routine screening for viremia in this clinical setting might be warranted
