ADMINISTRATIVE AND LEGAL REGIME OF THE NORTHERN DELIVERY AS A FACTOR OF SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT OF THE NORTH AND THE ARCTIC ZONE OF RUSSIAN FEDERATION

Achieving “accelerated social and economic development” of the Russian North and the Arctic presupposes, among other things, the uninterrupted supply of hard-to-reach territories, to which there is no year-round access by land transport, with essential goods (food, medicine, fuel). At different periods of time, different delivery schemes were used to supply such territories - with a greater or lesser degree of state participation. Thus, during the Soviet period, northern deliveries were carried out entirely at the expense of the state. All experts note the high level of organization, the absence of failures, the wide range and volume of all necessary goods. With the country's transition to a market economy, the implementation of northern delivery activities was transferred to the level of the constituent entities of the Russian Federation. The decentralized model is characterized by disruptions in the supply of goods, their narrow range, low volume and inflated prices. Since 2024, a new special federal law on northern delivery has come into force, and by-laws are being actively developed and adopted to regulate the processes of delivering goods to hard-to-reach areas of the country. An analysis of the newly adopted regulatory documents indicates a return to centralized state management of northern deliveries. Conducting research on the role of public administration in the process of implementing northern delivery and its impact on the socio-economic development of the North and the Arctic is timely, which represents the relevance of the article. As a result of the study, conclusions were drawn that state regulation of northern imports today is the basis for the socio-economic development of the North and Arctic of Russia.

THE USE OF MESSENGER CHATS IN STATE AND MUNICIPAL ADMINISTRATION: PROBLEMS AND PROSPECTS OF LEGAL REGULATION

Currently, communication technologies play a key role in public administration. With the development of mobile devices and messengers, the use of chats is becoming an increasingly popular tool for information exchange and coordination of activities. The purpose of the study is to consider some problematic aspects of the use of digital methods of communication by public authorities on the example of messenger chats. Materials and methods. The research was based on general scientific methods of cognition: observation, analysis, synthesis, description, generalization, comparison and others. On the basis of content analysis, comparative and systematic approaches, the use of chats in state and municipal management was investigated. The work also used system-wide scientific methods of theoretical and empirical research, as well as specific methods that made it possible to substantiate the results obtained. Sociological methods were used to study the opinions of chat users, as well as of experts and scientists. Private scientific methods, such as comparative-legal, formal-legal, statistical and structural-functional ones, were used for the study. This made it possible to identify trends, to formulate conclusions, and to offer recommendations for solving a number of issues in problem areas. Results. The obvious advantages of using messenger chats have led to their widespread use in the practice of state and municipal administration: speeding up decision-making processes, simplifying coordination, improving coordination of actions within the department and in interdepartmental interaction, increasing the quality of feedback between the state and citizens, etc. Despite the significant prospects of using messengers to improve the efficiency of communication and the quality of public and municipal services provided, to promote the development of the digital state, it is necessary to take into account the risks and problems: the use of personal mobile devices by employees; identification of the administrator and users; the possibility of deleting messages completely; legal consequences of messages sent via chat; protection of personal data; security and the integrity of messages transmitted via chat, etc. Conclusions. Some of the issues related to the use of messenger chats in the practice of state and municipal administration can be resolved by the adoption of departmental or local acts regulating the rules for the use of such chats, message monitoring, administrator powers, business etiquette, etc. In modern realities, it is important to conceptually revise approaches to document management, document flow and the concept of "document", taking into account the introduction and widespread use of digital innovations.

People’s perception of the brown bear reintroduction in the Spanish Pyrenees

The brown bear (Ursus arctos) was reintroduced in the Pyrenees during the ‘90s. The bear population has increased in number and distribution, fostering human-wildlife conflicts in areas where the species was absent for more than a century. We analysed 236 questionnaires about people’s perception toward the bear reintroduction in the Spanish Pyrenees, as well as the role of public administration in managing the damages caused by bears using regression trees. Our tree models explained 85% of the observed variability of people’s perceptions being the main drivers of perception whether people consider brown bears to be overabundant, whether these mammals attract nature tourism, if bears represent a danger for humans and finally if the local administration compensates for brown bear damages. We conclude that local administration should create the appropriate social atmosphere for the coexistence of humans and brown bears through information and risk prevention campaigns, compensation of damages, and promoting the public valorisation of the species. These efforts to mitigate human-bear conflicts may promote a positive perception of local people towards this emblematic mammal.

HYDROGEOLOGICAL AND LEGAL ASPECTS OF DROUGHT IN POLAND

The issue of drought is an interdisciplinary and multifaceted topic. Two disciplines, in particular, that have an interest in solving the problem of drought are hydrogeology and law. These two seemingly distant disciplines have to work closely together in order to find the right tools to solve the problem of drought. In order to possibly prevent its occurrence and, above all, to counteract its effects, interdisciplinary cooperation is needed not only between the world of science, but also between public authorities, entrepreneurs, and citizens. One important aspect is the preparation of a legal framework that can ensure maximum action related not only to eliminating the effects of drought, but also to its prevention and the role of public administration in this process.2 However, in terms of possible solutions, lawyers need the expertise that only hydrogeologists can provide.

The role of public administration and social media educational socialization in influencing public satisfaction on population services: The mediating role of population literacy awareness

This research investigates the interplay between public administration, educational socialization on social media, population literacy awareness, and public satisfaction in the context of population services. The primary objective is understanding how these variables are interconnected and their collective impact on public satisfaction. The study employs a quantitative approach, collecting data through structured questionnaires from a randomly selected sample. Data analysis involves various statistical techniques using Smart PLS, including regression and mediation analysis. The findings reveal that public administration significantly influences population literacy awareness, underscoring the role of government agencies in shaping citizen understanding of demographic policies. While it was anticipated that population literacy awareness would mediate the relationship between public administration and educational socialization on social media for public satisfaction, this mediating effect needed to be supported. However, social media use was found to influence population literacy awareness, indirectly affecting public satisfaction directly. It highlights the potential of digital platforms to enhance citizen understanding and engagement. The implications are substantial. Governments should recognize the importance of effective communication and digital engagement in fostering an informed and satisfied citizenry. Additionally, tailored communication and education initiatives are crucial for promoting public understanding and engagement, ultimately contributing to higher levels of public satisfaction. The research's novelty lies in its exploration of the complex dynamics among these variables and its focus on the role of digital platforms in enhancing population literacy awareness. However, some limitations include the potential for context-specific findings and the need for further research in diverse settings.

Information Wars and Mythology of Social: Ideological, Mental and Media aspects

In the modern epoch, there is a transformation of social space, forms of interaction between people. “Thinking models”, the so-called mental attitudes, are changing, that stipulates research of the processes of transformation of the mental aspects in a modern culture. The ideological and mental aspects are the dimensions where these modifications are reflected. One can measure social and cultural transformations, existing problems and development in the future through the mental aspect in retrospect and at the present time. A person becomes a “political being”, functioning as a subject of public life. One of the features of “post-modernization” of mass culture noted today is a some special network of the global information space with its own laws, which draws attention to the most acute or minor problems. In political science, a network approach to public administration is increasingly observed. Today, big data plays an important role in public administration. They are used to improve the policy in the field of interethnic relations, develop a strategy for the state's foreign information policy. Big data is used in the process of forming a particular policy. In the context of the use of big data, one can note the analysis of “digital citizenship” culture of network users, actors, formation technologies, socio-political effects. Determining the direction of information flows in a particular segment of social media, risks and technologies to overcome negative effects in the online environment is becoming increasingly important and relevant. In particular, this applies to information flows representing the problems of relations in international conflicts. In this context, concepts such as consciousness, including political consciousness, political culture, mentality and ideology are becoming increasingly important and relevant. The mental transformations observed today must also be taken into account in defining modern methods of teaching and education.

The Renewable Energy Communities in Italy and the Role of Public Administrations: The Experience of the Municipality of Assisi between Challenges and Opportunities

The pressing necessity to address climate change calls for the reduction in carbon emissions in the energy sector. Renewable energy communities (RECs) provide environmental, financial, and societal advantages that facilitate the shift towards sustainable energy sources. This paper examines the development of RECs in Italy through a case study in the Municipality of Assisi, and investigates the pivotal role played by public administrations as catalysts in the formation of RECs. Despite facing unique challenges and constraints, Assisi leverages RECs and the proactive approach of the local government to overcome barriers hindering the implementation of renewable energy projects. A municipality-led REC of a total power of 2 MWp by 2030, using clusters of prosumers and consumers and including energy-intensive municipal facilities, is investigated. Through rigorous simulations and the resulting shared energy, the study conducts a comprehensive analysis encompassing technical, energy, and economic aspects. The results, including relevant energy indices, are presented and various scenarios are discussed as the energy shared varies. Finally, sensitivity analyses show that the profitability strongly depends on the cost of energy, the remuneration from the sale, and the value of the incentive earned on the shared energy: the simple payback time ranges from 8 to 14 years and NPV varies from EUR 0.8 to 4.5 M.

A tiered pathway toward sustainability: The role of public administrators in advancing social equity in U.S. local governments

AbstractEquity is a central value for public administration as a field and for the advancement of sustainability, yet it is disproportionately and significantly underrepresented and underprioritized in U.S. local governments' sustainability priorities. Equity is referred to as one of the three essential “Es” in sustainability along with environment and economy. Since the first Minnowbrook Conference held in 1968, advancing social equity has become one of the chief goals of public administration as equity emerged as one of the discipline's four “Es” along with economy, efficiency, and effectiveness. In light of this, to what extent are public administrators' concerns and efforts impactful in embracing and advancing social equity in sustainable development? With ICMA's 2015 Local Government Sustainability Practices Survey, this paper offers a unique understanding of localities' tiered realization of sustainability priorities as well as factors correlated with ascending upwards through the tiered pathway of prioritizing sustainability orientation.

Первая дискуссия об организации государственной статистики в Российской империи

The article is devoted to the history of state statistical institutions formation in Russia in the first quarter of the 19th century. In that period, the government gradually came to understand the statistics role in public administration, and yet varying views of the leading statesmen on the goals of administrative statistics resulted in long search for optimal configuration of the statistical agency. Exponents of opposite approaches were the Minister of Police A. D. Balashev and Minister of Internal Affairs V. P. Kochubey. The full text of Balashev’s project “On the statistical institution,” submitted in 1819 for the Committee of Ministers consideration, is being published for the first time, as well as Kochubey’s opinion on the issue. It is noted that Balashev's project encapsulated his ongoing efforts to create the statistical dDepartment of the Ministry of Police, the first body of administrative statistics in Russia. The department was established in 1810 with participation of the Academy of Sciences member, statistician Karl F. Herman. Later, the structure of the department was improved, the problems of staffing and funding solved. The initial ministry staff did not allow for the creation of a separate statistical body, and its activities were regulated only by intra-ministerial instructions. New administrative reform of 1819, when the Ministry of Police merged with the Ministry of Internal Affairs, called into question the future of administrative statistics in Russia. Balashev lost his ministerial post. The status of the statistical department, created as an intra-ministerial experiment, was undefined. In the circumstances, Balashev attempted to preserve the statistical department, formalizing its place in the central administration structure; he sent his proposals to the Committee of Ministers. Balashev's project raised issues of centralization of statistical research (which remains relevant up to date) and proposed to secure the statistical agency’s independent status. He also put forward an idea of involving the scientific community in statistical work through creation of the Statistical Society. The essence of Kochubey's report on Balashev's project amounted to developing statistical units within different ministries and to abandoning all plans for centralized aggregation of statistical information. The projects’ historical context and their significance for evolution of statistics in the Russian Empire are considered.

공공서비스와 행정법

The notion of “french public service”(le service public in french) is essential in order to explain the french public law. The concept of public service, known as “Kong-yuk-mu” in korea, has been justified by french administrative jurisprudence and doctrines to prove the existence of administrative law. But the formation of the EU, the modernization of public policy have influenced the french public service doctrine since late 1990’s.
 On this study, we reviewed the conceptual consideration of “Public service” and the recent discussion of the role and mission of the State in public service legislation. The French law and system understood the public service as a content of the mission for administration, as a function and role that is the premise of the civil service system represented by Léon Duigit in the early and mid 20th century. Now, we are foreseeing a great change in the establishment of relationships between social community and public services for administrative duties to the State because of COVID-19.
 With the attitude of “On-go-ji-sin”(New knowledge by reviewing), we are able to evaluate the value of french public service theory through a new understanding of public service as a sense of solidarity and fair access to public service and the role of public administration.
