This article presents an analysis of the changes that have occurred in one of the most important state documents - the Food Security Doctrine of the Russian Federation. Criticism of this document can be traced in many scientific works: some experts attribute the Doctrine only to a program document, while others expect it to be implement and control, i.e. much more in practice. An assessment of the significance and essence of such a document as the doctrine as a whole made it possible to determine its place both in the system of public administration and the degree of its significance in the regulatory field. Based on the findings, an attempt was made to analyze changes in the new Doctrine of Food Security of the Russian Federation, approved by Decree of the President of Russia No. 20 of 01.21.2020. Structural changes in the new Doctrine are highlighted, as well as a critical assessment of the features of all its main sections. The greatest changes were revealed in the state food security assessment system, and it was also determined that the new version of the Doctrine has a greater social bias. If there are positive changes, some omissions of the most important areas of agri-food policy have been identified, which, despite their absence or insufficient reflection in the Doctrine, can be presented and decided at the level of subsequent documents, but only if the Doctrine in practice will be a fundamental document of public administration and regulatory framework.

The article is devoted to the topical issue of tax incentives and control in Russia. We have evaluated effectiveness of these measures in terms of current legislation and identified the main problems encountered during their implementation. Additionally, in this article we have covered major development paths of tax incentives and control in modern conditions to enhance their efficiency and achieve maximum increase in tax payments in budgets of the Russian Federation.

The Russian Federation is in the process of making major structural changes to its railway and electricity sectors. Both sectors will be at least partly vertically disintegrated, with the aim of creating competition in the “upstream” sector while maintaining state ownership and control of the monopoly “grid”. This paper examines the details of reform and restructuring in the context of the international experience with reform and restructuring in these two sectors, and considers the role of the Ministry for Antimonopoly Policy in reform, both in the past as an “advocate for competition” within the government, and in the future as the guarantor of non-discriminatory access to the grids by non-integrated upstream producers.

This work was carried out in accordance with the Digital Economy program of the Russian Federation and is therefore relevant. The program posed the following tasks for universities: the digital transformation of universities and the training of specialists of the digital economy. The Ministry of Education has articulated these issues as the creation of the Digital University. The paper proposes a model that can be laid the foundation of the Digital University. The model was developed on the basis of an analysis of the development of education in the fi of digitalization over the past 20 years, an assessment of the readiness of the leading universities of the Russian Federation to transform at present, and their own experience in using digital technologies. The proposed model satisfies the following requirements: openness of the system for students and teachers; the student’s participation in the formation of the trajectory of his own learning; the ability to access additional resources, courses and choose the places for practical training; formation and analysis of the digital trace; the use of intelligent methods for assessing acquired knowledge and competencies. The main blocks of the model are identified and the tasks for each block are formulated, which must be solved at the stage of creating the Digital University. The paper proposes approaches to their solution, technologies that the authors tested, evaluated and published the results in their previous works. In conclusion, we note that to create a Digital University, first of all, it is necessary: expand the base of control and training materials, modify, improve their forms; implement software smart systems for training and control; form a digital student trace, digital passports of information resources and, on their basis, form an individual learning path, an image of a specialist; develop learning scenarios for different images of students, goals, objectives; integrate intellectual resources of science and education; automate the management of the learning and control process as much as possible.

The paper considers approaches to standardizing the volumes of accumulation of solid municipal waste in the constituent entities of the Russian Federation. The analysis of normative legal acts, which determine the specific norms of solid municipal waste at the regional level, is carried out. In the work, based on the results of the conducted scientific research, general and particular factors have been identified that take into account the socio-economic characteristics of the region, which govern the regions when determining the accumulation standards. It has been proved that the differentiation of the standards for the accumulation of solid municipal waste, applied in practice, does not lead to an increase in the forecast accuracy, significantly complicating the calculations. Approaches are proposed for optimizing the system for calculating the accumulation rate, taking into account the main socio-economic conditions, which, according to the authors, will have a greater effect on the real volume of accumulation of solid household waste: the unevenness of their formation in natural and climatic zones and geographic conditions, living standards, as well as seasonal characteristics of movement and place of residence of the population at different periods of time. We believe that it is necessary to develop a unified approach to monitoring the standards for the accumulation of solid household waste, based on indicative assessments of each factor with a different degree of their influence. In the future, the proposed approach will make it possible to provide reliable and objective information and to monitor and control the volume of accumulation of solid household waste.

For more than 15 years, a significant part of the budget revenues of the Russian Federation have been tax revenues from the sale of hydrocarbons, in particular oil and natural gas. Despite the desire of our government to minimize its dependence on oil and gas revenues, the government continues to implement measures to encourage both small and large companies by providing some tax-related benefits, thereby encouraging the fields to further develop and expand.
