The article deals with the problem of vulnerability of population groups in a state of social transmission on the example of two basic age groups — youth and the elderly. Social transmission is considered as a phenomenon caused by the transitivity of social status and psychophysiological state (from youth to maturity and from maturity to old age). These periods of transmission can be associated with a state of uncertainty, increased tension, irritation, frustration, uncertainty of prospects, fear of making a mistake in choosing a behavior strategy and a number of other states determined by the search for a rational choice that determines a new social status. At the same time, the authors note that, despite the presence of a certain age specificity, youth and the elderly are characterized by a general vulnerability to social risks arising in this condition. Risks arising in a state of social transmission can be considered a factor that has a direct impact on the individual’s place in society self-perception, and lead to irreversible results in the absence of successful overcome. The theoretical assumptions presented in the article are confirmed by the results of a pilot empirical research, which showed that both young people and elderly people express serious concerns about the state of social transition, and note a significant number of associated social risks, due to both inevitable age-related changes and the need to choose a further life path in changing social status conditions. In conclusion the authors underline that social transmission is of great importance in the context of social problems overcoming in youth and the elderly, and propose a new vista in Russia’s sustainable development optimization.

The article is devoted to the analysis of the problem of the formation of social dignity through the education system. The emphasis is placed on the fact that modern education is deeply imbued with concepts of individualism, which include the currently widespread belief, inspired by liberal thinkers, that education should be focused on the growth and development of the individual. In contrast to this thesis, the paper considers the paradigm of social solidarity and collectivism in education, proposed by E. Durkheim. This paradigm, according to the scientist, contributes to a more effective formation of social dignity. The paper attempts to consider various aspects of the formation of social dignity among young people: through the prism of value orientations, life position and in the context of deviant behavior through the prism of social norms. Based on the materials of long-term studies of various forms of deviant behavior among young people (results of surveys of schoolchildren, university students, minors the penitentiary system), conducted by the sector of sociology of deviant behavior of the IS FCTAS RAS, certain social patterns have been identified that contribute to the growth of deviant behavior of children and adolescents. It is shown the important components of social dignity are value-normative, legal, national consciousness. Adolescents with a deviant personality orientation show lower levels of development in these areas. The study allows us to conclude that, ultimately, a low level of formation of both internal and external (social) dignity leads to the development of various forms of deviant behavior in adolescents. The formation and development of social dignity among young people is possible through the reorientation of the school from the primacy of individualism education to the inclusion of oneself in the collective and service to society.

The promotion of the educational field is changing under the influence of current trends. At the current stage of development of Internet technologies and social networks for the consumer one of the aspects when choosing a product or service becomes the brand ideas on significant social issues. Customers expect the organization to support their own views and communicate in a language they understand, especially for the younger generation who are acutely responsive to events in the world and have a wide range of information options.

That is why educational institutions need to promote their services and use modern technologies, for example, such as Influence Marketing.

The authors consider the sources of evidentiary information that allow us to form a full-fledged idea of the mechanism of committing traffic crimes in the process of transporting passengers by buses. The article focuses on the need for the subjects of the investigation to operate on the legal and technical aspects of the organization of passenger transportation, the regulations of which are subject to strict compliance and reflected in the relevant accompanying documentation of transport companies.

Currently, there is a dual approach in domestic law enforcement practice regarding the possibility of attributing such a state function as the provision of subsidies from the relevant budget of the budgetary system to public services.

The problem of consistency and place of legalistic sources of law, especially the ones having an indefinite a priori legal force, is highly relevant in the modern national law system. In the field of law enforcement, in this regard, there is a topical question of the lack of a unified approach to the hierarchy of sources of law, in particular when resolving conflicts of forms of their consolidation. The main attention in the article is paid to determining the place of international law in the system of national law sources. The problem of sources of law consistency is one of the most important in legal theory. Issues of the systematic and structural relationship of legal provisions require this or that approach when making law enforcement decisions, which, in turn, must be based precisely on strict and full compliance with the legal provisions. To resolve the legal problem of the sources of law hierarchy, it is necessary to refer not only to the legalistic approach, but as well to the theoretical and legal level. Thus, it seems quite certain to be able to establish the place of international law in the system of the sources of national law.

The article is devoted to the study of the problems of the implementation of measures of administrative and disciplinary responsibility of state civil servants. The issues of the possibility of simultaneous application of administrative-legal and disciplinary sanctions for the same act are investigated. Approaches to the differentiation of administrative and disciplinary responsibility of state civil servants are being studied. The issues of bringing a state civil servant to administrative responsibility as an official and on general grounds as a citizen of the Russian Federation are being studied. The paradoxical nature of the situation with the possible application of two types of responsibility for the same act is noted. There are differences in the application of administrative and disciplinary sanctions.

The article provides a comparative analysis of the administrative and legal regulation of the voluntary people’s squads of the Russian Federation and Norway. The role of people’s squads in ensuring public order in the Russian Federation and Norway is considered, the main directions of their activities are determined: ensuring public order and public safety. The article shows some aspects that can be considered as problematic. Among them are aspects of material incentives for vigilantes, which increase the effectiveness of the latter’s activities. It seems that increasing the material incentives for citizens to participate in the protection of public order is advisable, but in moderation. Participation in people’s squads is a civic initiative, a voluntary manifestation of activity, a desire to make the place where you live better, to help other people. But if citizens go to such public organizations, first of all, because of financial incentives, then the desired result will also not work. The authors come to the conclusion that there is no proper legislative regulation of the activities of voluntary people’s squads. The expediency of adopting the Federal Law “On Voluntary People’s Squads” is argued, both in Russia, where to expand the powers of the latter, to ensure their social guarantees, protection, and in Norway, where to regulate all aspects of the activities of voluntary people’s squads.

The article deals with the criminological characteristics of the personality of a criminal who commits acts in the sphere of the economy using information and communication technologies. The author used statistical, comparative legal, analysis, formal logic as research methods. It is noted that the factors influencing the formation of the offender’s personality are external conditions that cause a certain situation that affects human behavior and internal conditions — the properties of the psyche of a particular individual, formed in the process of social communication. The main criminological characteristics of the offender’s personality are studied, the socio-demographic, criminal-legal, moral-psychological characteristics inherent in him are determined. In addition, as part of the study of the identity of the offender, the need to introduce a new criminological concept of “latent subject” has been established. Such a person is engaged in direct planning of criminal activity, develops a mechanism for committing an act, using information and communication technologies for this, including to hide his identity, thus remaining “invisible” to law enforcement agencies. At the same time, as a circumstance that will help improve the efficiency of detecting and solving crimes in the field of information and communication technologies, there will be deanonymization of the information space, the ability to identify network users the Internet. Thus, the study of the personality of the offender and the introduction of a new concept of “latent subject” will contribute to the adoption of timely preventive response measures in the framework of the prevention of crimes in the information sphere.
