Abstract: The article substantiates the topicality of the problem of studying crime in rural areas, which is defined, on one hand, by complicated character of criminal situation in villages, and topicality of problems of organizing countermeasures against crime and its prevention, and on the other hand, by the lack of studies of the criminological issues in the sphere of rural crime. The number of cases involving death or grievous harm to health of village people by criminal attacks is especially alarming to one studying rural crime. The number of deaths of people due to crime in rural areas in Russia remains the same in last three years, and it is over two times larger than the same criterion for the city crime, and one and a half times larger for causing grievous harm to health of people. The methods employed include following from abstract to specific, systemic structural and comparative analysis, historic method, dynamic and statistical methods, as well as specific sociological methods for the evaluation of rural crime. The article for the first time provides structural analysis of rural crime compared to the city crime, as well as regional analysis. The authors of the article point out the complicated character of criminal situation in the villages. The tendency for the lesser registered crimes in the rural areas in 2009 to 2012 does not reflect the real situation, since it is artificially formed in last several years by lowering statistical data. In this article the authors provide full-scale analysis of the tendencies in the modern rural crime in order to guarantee rapid reaction of the state to this problem and finding efficient counteractions.

Keywords: topical aspects of studies, city crime, rural crime, crime dynamics, crime structure, specific features of rural crime, rural crime level, criminal situation, regional crime analysis.

Abstract: The goal of the article is to analyze the migration processes in the near-border regions of Russia and their influence upon the social safety in the labor market. It is based upon a complex approach towards the problem of labor market security, which presupposes the necessary study of the migration activities of the people and their influence upon the economic and social sphere of a specific region, as well as specificities of attitude of local people to labor migrants, and possible solutions to the problems caused by the migration processes. The article presents results of a social study, presupposing among other issues a subjective evaluation of scale of migration processes by the people in the relevant territories. The authors provide the results for the expert poll analysis, presupposing the evaluation of influence of migration processes upon the various spheres of life of regional near-border societies. Special attention is paid to evaluation of influence of migration upon the security of regional security markets.

Abstract: The article is devoted to the perspectives of development of Islamic banking in the territory of the CIS state, where the Islamic banks are lately recognized as “useful” within the framework of a global financial crisis. The author draws a conclusion that the main instrument for the implementation of the Islamic global order goals is formed by Islamic banks, serving as an efficient instrument for the influence and pressure in the areas of spread of Islam for the purpose of implementation of the Islamic global order concept. It may be regarded as a threat to spiritual security of the state, being an inalienable element of national and constitutional security. The author is assured that implementation of the Islamic global order concept, where one of the vectors of Islamic global dominance is its penetration into the fundamentals of the economic life, threatens the secular principles and world views, as well as secular law of Russia, and it may cause irreparable loss to civil society and democracy in the Russian Federation.

Abstract: The current relations among the leading states in the world allows some hope in the small potential for a global nuclear conflict and a new global war. However, both small-scale and large-scale armed conflicts arise regularly in Europe and Asia, in the so-called “third world states”, some of these states claim to have nuclear weapons, and their political systems lack stability, which provides for the possibility of unlikely event scenario, including a large military tragedy. The unsolved disputes and conflicts, and the armed conflicts arising out of them, touch upon the vital interests of every state and pose a real threat to international peace and security. In the political conflicts, which often become civil wars, the mass crimes are committed against the civilians, towns and cities are destroyed in grave violation of international conventions.

Abstract: This article provides analysis of threats to national security of Russia in the central Asian region due to the expected withdrawal of the International Security Assistance Force from Afghanistan. It is expected that after the military forces of the USA and their European allies are withdrawn from Afghanistan, the territory shall be controlled by the Taliban and the demarcation line between the Taliban power and the pro-Western Karzay government shall be at the same position, which previously divided the Taliban from the Northern Alliance. In this case it should be expected that the Central Asia, including Kyrgyzstan shall lose their status of the territories in the strategic rearward area of the ISAF, guaranteeing supply of the Afghanistan operation, and they shall become the frontline of defense from the export of Islamism, terrorism, and narcotic drugs into Russia and European stats. In this case the growing threat to the international security from Afghanistan shall be a durability test for the Russian-Kyrgyz relations and cooperation in the sphere of security.

Abstract: This article includes analysis of the phenomenon of informal social interactions in the sphere of remuneration for work. In the post-Soviet period this phenomenon became wide-spread, but it roots itself in the Soviet period. The labor sphere is regarded as a social area formed by the interactions of employee and employer. The conclusion is made that informal social interactions in the sphere of remuneration for work have transformed from the social practices into the social institution. However, this is an informal institution, and it is alternative, since it was formed within the legal structures. On one hand, the “shadow” payment for work allows to achieve certain goals, guaranteeing the existence of the institution, on the other hand, such a form of payment has considerable negative consequences. The necessary condition for managing this process is information influence, that is monitoring of scale and dynamics of the shadow processes in the sphere of wages.

Abstract: In this article it is stated that the reforms in the sphere of regulation of social and labor relations in the modern Russia pay no attention to prevention and prophylactics of mobbing — moral persecution of workers in their workplace in the process of performing their professional duties. It is partially due to the fact that in Russia the problem of active persecution of a working persons is hardly discussed, and the issues of improvement of labor legislation for centralized prevention of mobbing has no theoretical basis. That is why there is no legislative definition of mobbing and neither the Labor Code of the Russian Federation, nor any other federal laws in the sphere of social labor relations contain any definition of mobbing or similar term, while protection of personal non-proprietary rights of workers is achieved via means of different branches of law, such as civil law. However, non-proprietary benefits and rights of workers cannot find complete protection within the framework of regulation of civil law. That is why, the Russian labor law should include special means of protection of non-proprietary rights of workers, requiring a unified state policy in the sphere of protection of dignity and guarantees of personal labor rights of workers. At the same time, the measures against “mobbing” and for the protection of psychological health of workers in the process of their working activities should be legislatively provided for both at the centralized and the local level.

Keywords: psychological security of workers, labor legislation, moral persecution, personal non-proprietary rights, civil law, mobbing, selfdefense, labor law, improvement, compensation of moral damage.

Abstract: This article was written based on the results of course “Security of entrepreneurial activity”, and it is devoted to the methods of studying potential contracting parties with the use of Internet. As an illustration for the distance means of gaining information about the potential contracting parties the author methodologically provides examples of popular schemes in the Internet community, and they are based upon lack of information in one of the parties. Novelty of the material is due to the fact that it is aimed at the youth audience, actively using Internet resources for business purposes. Taking this fact into consideration, today the enterprises no matter what size they are should protect their commercial secrets carefully and at the same time use commercial intelligence. Within the context of this work, the author evaluates the information of potential contracting parties, since in the everyday life individuals often have to do with the contracting parties, and not competitors. Additionally, collection of such information is easier to bring into system, while competitor monitoring is often personalized and it requires certain professional knowledge and capacities within the relevant field.

Abstract: The object of studies in this article is one of the divisions of the theory of takeovers and mergers in business, namely, hostile takeover, and the article is written after taking the course “Security of entrepreneurial activity”. Methodologically, the author provides an overview of the scientific publications on foreign and Russian practice. He provides theoretical analysis of the main elements, models and possible strategies for the protection against hostile takeovers. The author pays special attention to the Russian situation, involving the Russian legislation and practical examples. For the first time the author used Redel Group factual data for the analysis. Most of the strategies should be applied together for a maximum results. The pills, the parachutes and supermajority should be displayed publicly in order to lower the possibility of future takeover and raising the price of shares. The protection of assets, strategic alliance and strategic acquisition should be used only in emergency situations. The author concludes that the situation in the Russian market of mergers and acquisitions is not as tragic, as it seems. In spite of the domination of the administrative resource, lack of development of the financial market, lack of friendly takeovers, and corruption, one may protect his own business, if he takes care of it in advance.
