Smart and faithful people will never argue, that the State of the Republic of Indonesia is falling apart, debts mounting, to the point of reaching Rp. 4,000 (Four Thousand) Trillion is due to the crime of corruption that has taken root, curbed, thrived as if allowed to happen continuously. While law enforcement in this country does not provide a judicial verdict that has a deterrent effect for corruptors. It is difficult to understand in general, whether the legal verdict for corruption perpetrators by the Panel of Judges who hear and decide the case of corruption is influenced by the interference of fellow law enforcers ..., in this case, Advocates and Public Prosecutors (Prosecutors). Decisions of Corruption Courts often cause disparity in decisions, resulting in speculation from the public and assessing such decisions as being disproportionate and giving rise to public assumptions of a conspiracy between law enforcers, namely with several categories of interests, including: (1) The interests of the Prosecutor and Judges are in the interest of getting bribes (2) Advocates as law enforcers who accompany the defendant in defence of the interests of the accused by dirty and disgusting bribes. The role of advocates is very important in creating and maintaining a clean, authoritative and civilized justice system for the realization of the legal authority in this country.Thus, legal advocates must have faith and devotion to God strong and sturdy table and must dare to appear clean and first cleanse themselves from dirty thoughts in the midst of carrying out the legal profession, so that the noble profession is not polluted into contempt resulting from violation of legal norms and professional code of ethics by advocates. Based on the outputs achieved in this research program, namely the willingness and bottomlessness of the Advocates in defending the interests of the defendant must comply with the provisions of the applicable laws and regulations and uphold the Code of Ethics Procession.The analysis of this paper shows that lawyers have made a legal defence of corruption defendants in a professional manner in accordance with applicable legal provisions and upholds the code of ethics of the legal profession, even though there is also information about an advocate who is trying to bribe one of the Corruption Crimes judges in a case. which is being handled by the Advocate concerned. The description of the results of this survey is expected to be used as input and advice that can help realize the Court's decision which has a deterrent effect on corruptors and potential corruptors in the future.

The article examines the role of gifted people and their place in the Russian society. The prospects of individual-centered approach to conceptualizing giftedness are analyzed. As giftedness has social nature, so the hypothesis is advanced that to define this concept one should start by identifying the function that gifted people are called to perform in society. It is noted that this function is not reflected clearly in contemporary social consciousness; therefore its traces should be sought at deeper levels of collective consciousness, viz. in the ancient epic literature. This task is performed by means of analysis of an epic tale plot – the struggle of a bogatyr (an epic hero) with a grotesque creature (the text "Alyosha Popovich and Tugarin [Serpent]"). The resemblance between bogatyrs’s characteristic traits and the modern idea of gifted people is demonstrated. The conclusions are drawn about the subjective activity of bogatyrs, their function in the social reality and the connection of epic tale character to the modern concept of giftedness.

Mental peculiarities of man of IT-civilization are being theoretically reconstructed in the article. The relevance of the topic is determined by the impact (which is apparently controversial and frequently even causing concern) of newest technologies on people’s psyche and somatic features, their private and social life. In methodology the authors rely on non-idealistic dialectics that is correlated with the content of critical social theory. In the stated methodological paradigm, priority is given to a positive non-classical dialectics which is being distinguished from both a classical dialectics and a negative one. The paper is primarily focused on specificity of social consciousness which categorical status is mostly related to Marxist intellectual tradition. The latter is chosen as a paradigm in the given text. Along with that, Marxist problematization of consciousness and its neighboring realities – ontological, epistemological, social ones – is interpreted with historically actual objective and subjective circumstances in mind. In this regard, the role of socio-cultural templates of modernity, modernism and postmodernity is being highlighted. We specify the content of conceptually significant concepts: social consciousness, information, ideology, propaganda, and consumer society. Consumer society itself is identified as capitalism of new technological and mental mode. The negative character of information and computer technologies’ influence on human psyche is being accentuated and elaborated. On the basis of adduced arguments, it is stated: consciousness of digital society’s man is prone to destruction, eclecticism and is susceptible to being manipulated which is fraught with totalitarian outcome. The resistance strategy is being defined. Its important component is an ability to detect innovative forms of exploitation and control concealed behind technological novelties.
