Abstract: The online population is growing each year, affecting and at times determining the external and internal development factors of the socioeconomic systems at micro-, meso-, and macro levels. Such trends also influenced the Russia-Belarus relations within the framework of development of the Union State. On May 12, 2016 Minsk held the 45th session of the ongoing seminar under the Belarus-Russia Parliamentary Assembly regarding the “Common Information Space of the Union State”. Deputies of the Parliamentary Assembly, representatives of Standing Committee of the Union State, national parliaments, ministries, departments, scientific academies, scientific and educational organizations, as well as leading Russian and Belarus mass media, have discussed a broad spectrum of questions concerning the development of common information space of the Union State. At the same time, the questions of ensuring and assessment of economic potential for the development of information space did not draw due attention, while the author believes that it deserves meticulous scientific and methodological examination. Considering the intensive growth of Internet users, special attention is given to the questions of implementation of information and communication technologies in public administration processes, including ensuring the investment attractiveness of the regions that can become one of the key drivers in efficient integration of Russian and Belarus, as well as development not only information, but also economic space of the Union State.

Abstract: This article is dedicated to the examination of peculiarities of cooperation between modern states and transnational corporations in the area of global politics, forms and methods of finding consensus in the joint resolution of political issues, principles of achieving the mutually acceptable agreements, as well as management of the arising political conflicts.  The object of this study is the sphere of world politics and political processes taking place within. The subject of this study is the forms and methods of constructive cooperation between the national states and transnational corporations with regards to political issues. The author draws attention to the fact that the cooperation and mutual coexistence of the traditional Westphalian actors of international relations – the national states, and the "actors beyond sovereignty" – the transnational corporations, does not always carry unambiguous character within the modern world politics. Fairly often, the transnational corporations attempt to dictate their terms to national governments of the countries they operate in, including in the area of politics. With rare exception, it usually leads to a major conflict. In other countries, we can observe the process of fusion between the transnational corporations and national bureaucracy, which either leads to a symbiosis between the transnational corporations and state institutions, or to corruption of power.

Abstract: In the XXI century India is among the world powers, which is supported by its active foreign policy, and the relations with the USA are key to it. However, in spite of a number of important strategic contracts, there are serious foreign political contradictions between these states due to India’s membership in BRICS and widening of the scope of relations with other important geo-political centers, such as Russia, China, South Africa, etc. Such contradictions have caused a number of negative publications in the American mass media for the purpose of information and psychological influence upon India. The methodological basis for the study was formed by the systemic, structural-functional, comparative, cultural-civilization approaches, methods of induction, deduction, analysis, synthesis, observation, analogy, content analysis. Based upon the main results of the studies the author concludes that within the framework of the strategic plans the number one priority should be information management, which should be aimed at the development of the information-communication channels for the BRICS in order to achieve further cooperation among its members and promotion of positive reputation of its partners around the world. First of all, it is necessary to form and develop information blog portals among the BRICS Member States, its own mass media, which would connect the target audiences of these states, and there is also need to improve the work with the “new media”, which could be powerful means for neutralization of information threats from the opposition and competitors of this association.
