Modern legal literature has no studies on the legal control over regulatory impact assessment (RIA) for draft regulatoryacts of the Central Bankof Russia.At the same time,RIAremains an essential element of the law-making process,its effectiveness directlydepends on quality,consistency,and enforceabilityof requirements. The article is focused on studying the legal regulation for RIA of draft regulatory acts of the Central Bank of Russia and law enforcement in this area.As an instrument of "smart regulation", regulatory impact assessment has been adopted from the legislation of foreign countries.The studyaims to analyze the legal regulation of RIA for compliance with the Recommendation of the OECD Council on Regulatory Policy and Governance 2012. Considering the legal frameworkfor assessing the regulatoryimpact of draft regulatoryacts of the Central Bank of Russia,the study revealed that the legal regulation of the regulatory impact assessment for draft regulations of the Central Bank of Russia does not fully meet the principles enshrined in the OECD Recommendations; this applies to regulatorypolicyand "smart regulation"instruments.For example,there is no definition for the subject of evaluation,no transparent criteria to form the terms of public discussion,and no obligation on the regulator to post a summary of the proposals received and the conclusion on the RIA on the official website.The author concludes that we should improve the qualityof legal regulation of the RIAfor draft regulatoryacts of the Central Bank of Russia via its further development according to the principles of the OECD regulatory policy.

The article addresses the methods to improve the legal availability of the results of intellectual activity in the Russian Federation, considering the international experience. In particular, the authors studied the licensing activities of the worldwide partner network of the non-profit Creative Commons organization. The article was prepared with the participation of the federal state budgetary educational institution of higher education "The Russian Presidential Academy of National Economy and Public Administration"in implementing the strategicacademicleadership program "Priority2030",approved bythe Government of the Russian Federation.The relevance of the applied approach to the use of open licenses is comprehensible since it ensures the balance of interests of the parties: the rightsholders are interested in observing the protection of their copyright (and associated) rights and increasing their citation rate as authors.The open licensing mechanism allows authors to give the right to use their work to an unlimited number of people on the terms they set out,with the licensees gaining uncomplicated and legal access to the results of intellectual activityfree of charge.Such a transparent open licensing approach could compete with the traditional approach to creating license agreements.

Using methods of analysis, generalization, and synthesis of existing scientific and practical approaches as well as methods of analytical activity in management, the authors identified analytical tasks with statistical components. Factual and structural-functional analysis, the systematic approach to identifying analytics specificity as a science and practical activity,allowed us to characterize the conceptual directions of convergence of statistics and analytics in more detail, thereby determining the scientific novelty of the study. In the context of existing problems for the development of statistics and analytics in Russia,the authors analyzed the main factors of low efficiencyof analytical activities.The authors discussed the possibility of improving the quality of analytical activities, considering: (1) the emerging benefits of developing national statistics on a new technological basis, in particular, creating and implementing the state information system "Digital analytical platform for statistical data"; (2) the creation of a new model of statistical education, aimed at ensuring the quality of training highly qualified professionals with competencies in the interdisciplinary field of statistics and Data Science that meets modern requirements.

The authors proposed that the development of financing associated with achieving the Sustainable Development Goals will favorablyaffect the VCindustryin our country.The characteristics of venture capital fit perfectly into the philosophy of sustainable development because of the long-term nature of the investment and the social role that comes with it.At the same time,ESG allows you to address the potential economic risks associated with VC. Given this context, the rapidly changing factors of the external and internal environment of the organizations and the unstable ESG financing market make it challenging to implement such projects without state support. In Russia, such support measures include a range of laws to give preferential treatment to companies engaged in sustainable development projects.The development of domestic ESG financing will be an additional incentive for entrepreneurship in Russia. The authors concluded that at the early stages of domestic companies' development, state support and private investment in ESG equity financing would facilitate the growth of the Russian VC industry.

The article considers the current status of the new development banks and the impact of the existing global financial infrastructure on the activities of the Asian Infrastructure Investment Bankand the New Development Bank. The author proposes to create and apply the elements of the international financial system in the activities of these organizations, independent of the leading reserve currency systems and reducing the risks of limiting the functioning of the Asian Infrastructure Investment Bank and the NewDevelopment Bank,as well as manifestations of institutional isomorphism in the activities of these organizations. Multilateral development banks enable borrowing countries to implement projects that cannot be financed by the state or the private sector. The system of multilateral development banks has been repeatedlycriticized bydeveloping countries,resulting in the establishment of the Asian Infrastructure Investment Bankand the NewDevelopment Bankof BRICS,declared to mobilize resources for infrastructure financing and independence from existing international financial institutions. At the same time, the creation of development institutions based on the financial infrastructure,in which the new institutions are designed to be an alternative, limits the realization of this goal. Based on comparative analysis of the efficiency of capital utilization by multilateral development banks, the author found significant potential for increasing the operational capacity of the Asian Infrastructure Investment Bank and the New Development Bank.

The article analyzes the sequential events during the implementation of the sanctions,Russia's role in global oil and gas supplies,and the dependence on changes in Russian oil export volumes and the average monthly prices of Brent and Urals crude oil.The author proposes recommendations for avoiding the loss of export potential during the anti-Russian sanctions period.Bythe end of 2022,the European Union's strategy of shifting to renewable energy sources,the reduction of Russian gas supplies amid sanctions pressure,and terrorist attacks on the Nord Stream 1 and Nord Stream 2 pipeline systems led to an energy shortage in the global market and a global energy crisis.The decrease in oil shipments from Russia to the European Union can be compensated by the countries in the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC). Russian oil falling under sanctions may be directed to Asia-Pacific region (APAC) countries.The cooperation of OPEC+ countries is essential to avoid unjustified losses during the anti-Russian sanctions period and avoid confrontation and competition among friendly countries in the Asia-Pacific market.The author proposes to form an action plan to coordinate changes in Eurasian cargo flows with the increased presence of Russia in the Asia-Pacific market, along with a simultaneous increase in the supply of resources by OPEC countries (replacing those fallen under anti-Russian sanctions) to the European Union.

The article describes the results of the analysis of the organization, structure and technical and environmental features of the cycle of processing of secondary construction resources (SCR). The content and structure of the stages of the cycle is determined bythe specificity of the formation of SCR and the possibility of their further use. Based on the analysis of the preliminary results of the initial stage of renovation the main problems of secondary construction resources recycling are identified. The author proceeds from the main basic message that the organization of recycling of secondary construction resources should not begin at the moment the waste leaves the sphere of material and technical production, but during the period of adoption and approval of the investment project to create a new facility or a certain type of construction product. The factors that justify the ecological and economic efficiency of investment in the industryfor recycling of secondary construction resources at the present time are considered. The structure and content of individual stages of this process at all stages of the investment project are determined. It is established that the main stages determining the overall ecological and economic efficiency of recycling are construction and dismantling works, the process of processing and storage of non-recyclable waste. The approach to the assessment of complex ecological and economic efficiency of recycling of secondary construction resources is proposed, which is based on the current trends in the functioning of natural and socio-economic systems and recycling of manmade waste in the field of material and technical production.

The article addresses current issues in forming and applying HR analytics while focusing on HR data.At the present stage, the effective management of the organization is closely related to the growing interest in the instruments to ensure effective and high-quality analytics for managerial decision-making. The authors propose a set of standard indicators of public service personnel processes to ensure a comparison of the results of personnel workof different public authorities,the objectivityof the monitoring results, and the evaluation for the maturity of personnel processes.This list and the indicators' normative values will ensure the unity of approaches in conducting personnel audits in the state civil (municipal) service and may be placed in the Unified Information System for Personnel Management of the State Civil Service of the Russian Federation and monitoring the level of maturity and quality of personnel processes.

This article examines the political technologies used in the revolutionary transformations of the Modern Age and recent decades. The object of study is modern society. The subject of study is social transformation in recent decades. The study involves the use of historical, comparative, and analytical methods.The purpose of the paper is to identify patterns and predict vectors of globalization.The obtained results allow us to conclude the initiation of the revolutionary phase of society’s transformation. New technology is changing the economy and raising the quality of life, causing the population to grow. In the XXcentury,the rapid growth of scientificand technological progress,accompanied bysignificant population growth, led to the need for the most accurate resource estimates and the construction of long-term forecasts.The speed of these changes is so fast that people are hardlyprepared to comprehend the changes that have taken place.Humanity has entered the new era without realizing it.

In the article, the author seeks to identify the major trends in the works of Academician V.I.Vernadsky,which significantlyinfluences the development dynamics for the modern scientificknowledge. The "explosion"is viewed as a sociocultural phenomenon that marks the pace and scale for developing the "science-technology-society" system. The author focuses on integrative processes in scientific knowledge, combined with its deepening differentiation and acquiring a global character.The biosphere theory is seen as the social and natural basis for the positive functioning of all life, including man and humanity. The processes of biospherization of scientific knowledge are analyzed in the context of removing the acuteness of socio-ecological contradictions in developing the "man-biosphere-civilization"system.The "driver"of the dynamics of science became physicalism when the discovery of the microworld (X-rays,the radioactivity of uranium, and the electron) made it possible to transform the traditional scientific picture of the universe. Moreover,new conceptual constructs (relativity theory and quantum mechanics) that have emerged within physical knowledge are influencing the entire system of modern science, from astronomy to the human phenomenon. The principle of "scientist’s responsibility" for the results and consequences of scientific activity, as well as the autotrophic-noosphere concept as a prerequisite for the strategy of sustainable development,becomes the basis for the constructive entry of the global society into the foreseeable future.

The article compares the experience of implementing innovative systems based on technology transfer system in the Russian Federation and the French Republic through assessing macro- and meso-factors of their implementation. Research works, analytical reports, and expert opinions of Russian and foreign scientists, the best international practices of innovation, with the highlighting of strengths and weaknesses, served as the study’s theoretical basis. The authors used an interdisciplinary approach of institutional economic theory, combining legal, financial, sociological, and historical research methods and comparative country analysis to fulfill the research goals. Comparative analysis and proposals to improve the mechanisms and practices of innovation implementation in the Russian Federation based on updating the system of qualified intermediary structures may enhance the quality of innovative socio-economic research projects, programs, and services, the growth of innovation potential of Russia, strengthening its technological sovereignty. The article continues a series of studies on this topic published by the "Gosudarstvennaya sluzhba"journal in 2019-2021.

The article analyzes the results that the Vietnamese economyhas achieved 35 years after starting the reforms,and looks at howVietnam's modern trade and investment cooperation with other countries is being built.Vietnam's contribution to global value chains is concentrated in labor-intensive industries.To date,in the list of countries importing the supplies to Vietnam,Russia's position is in the second ten.Russia is also in the third ten of the list of countries,to which Vietnamese exports are supplied.Despite the fact that after signing the Free Trade Agreement between the EAEU and Vietnam in 2015, the nominal trade turnover between Russia and Vietnam has been steadily increasing, the share of Russia in Vietnamese exports and imports has not yet exceeded 1%. Under the new anti-Russian sanctions of 2022, there are disrupted supply chains, the threat of losing the aircraft fleet, problems with licensing companies and individuals; the refusal of international insurance companies to work with carriers of certain countries has complicated, in particular, the working conditions of Vietnamese and Russian companies. Meanwhile, Russia's desire to create a new geography for trade and economic cooperation can become a platform for improving the situation with Russian-Vietnamese cooperation.

The article represents the author’s writing concerning a large research project "Historyof Civil Service in Russia"comprised of the period from the X century to the present day,published by the «Delo» Publishing House of the Russian Presidential Academyof National Economyand PublicAdministration (RANEPA).Studying the history of public service is a significant part of the research on the public administration system in our country. Modern achievements and concerns, accomplishments, and deficiencies of public administration are mainly determined by the history of its development and formation. The generic quote "We all came out of Gogol’s "The Overcoat"is widely used in evaluating Russian classical literature and,to a certain extent,is also applicable to analyzing the history of the Russian state administration.In the given context,this concerns the overcoat’s owners -civil servants,and their role in the state’s history.The authors of the four-volume studyshow how public servants, next to military and cultural figures, entrepreneurs and workers, scientists, and peasants, have contributed to the country’s greatness over the centuries.The authors of the books identified four periods in the history of the formation of the Russian civil service; a description of each of these periods requires a separate volume.The article discusses the second volume in two parts,which was published first,presenting the history of public service of the Russian state in the XVIII -earlyXX centuries.
