The article proves that the environmental atlases adopted in a number of subjects of the Russian Federation as a set of maps showing the ecological state of the region, environmental protection measures and a list of potential anthropogenic threats to natural objects currently have uncertain legal significance, which makes their practical use difficult. To address this issue, it is necessary to include in regional environmental protection laws an appropriate section defining the scope of application of the data contained in environmental atlases. Atlas materials can be used by public authorities in the course of environmental protection (environmental monitoring, environmental control, informing authorities and citizens about the state of the environment, etc.), environmental public associations and citizens (to substantiate lawsuits or appeals to authorities), entrepreneurs (when planning the construction of factories and other environmentally friendly dangerous objects). If the environmental atlas is officially approved by the authorities of a constituent entity of the Russian Federation, its legal significance will become more definite. By their legal nature, atlases belong to the category of auxiliary (technical) acts that are not sources of law, but they can be used by a public authority in the preparation of various environmental concepts, strategies and programs.

The article is devoted to the broadest and most relevant topic for modern Russia, when the Prosecutor’s office of the Republic of Kalmykia, overseeing the legality and observance of human rights, opposes the ideology hostile to the country that came to Russia after the collapse of the Soviet Union, and, as required by the Prosecutor General of the Russian Federation, takes concrete measures to organize legal education. The Prosecutor’s Office actively involves State authorities and local governments, other institutions and organizations in this work, relying on civil society institutions. Moreover, the prosecutor’s office focuses on educational and patriotic work among young people.

The article examines the development of the institution of tort obligations, identifies the initial types of torts, and examines the dynamics of their complication and addition. It is noted that under the influence of scientific and technological progress, new types of tort relations are emerging, related to compensation for harm to workers and harm caused by a source of increased danger, and former torts (moral damage) are also developing.

The article provides arguments in favor of the existence of intersectoral legal relations as a new doctrinal legal category. They conclude that every year the complex nature of regulation is becoming more and more evident in Russian law, and there is a tendency towards the development of interaction and mutual influence of norms of various industry affiliations (for example, norms of financial, environmental and entrepreneurial law). Moreover, the existence of inter-industry relations, inter-industry institutions and principles has long been beyond doubt. The article examines the provisions of scientific doctrine that identify various types of intersectoral relationships in Russian law; examines the concept of intersectoral institutions that combine the norms of two or more branches of law and confirm the modern complex nature of legal regulation; analyzes intersectoral principles as legal ideas characteristic of two or more branches of law, the implementation of which requires the participation of norms of different industry affiliation. It is proved that the doctrinal recognition of inter-industry legal relations as a new theoretical and legal category is the next step in the framework of the theory of intersectoral research carried out by Russian scientists. Intersectoral legal relations are based on norms of different industry affiliation and are characterized by a set of legal facts (complex factual structures) provided for by different industries. They demonstrate a high level of legal technology of their construction, which can be observed in relation to interdisciplinary legal relations of land real estate

The article is devoted to the study of current problems of combating and suppressing grave and especially grave crimes aimed at state integrity and state sovereignty, terrorist and extremist activities. As a result of the study, one of the measures to suppress the abovementioned acts in the present, and possibly in the future, is proposed. The changes that have affected our state, the problems of counteracting and overcoming the obstacles that are on the way, are a primary task, the implementation of which is vitally important for our country and its population. One of the obstacles standing in the way of our state, in our opinion, is the softness or humanity of the highest degree of social protection, namely life imprisonment (hereinafter referred to as LIP).

The death penalty does not frighten those who violate the law. For those sentenced to life imprisonment, a high level of morbidity and conflict is quite typical, and against the background of the specifics of life imprisonment, such convicts can be observed to have no motivation for correction and goals in life. It can be concluded that the possibility of release from places of life imprisonment on parole gives extra hope to those who deviate from the norms of human morality and essence, those acts for which a person is sentenced to life imprisonment cannot be forgiven by either society or the state. Unfortunately, a person with such inclinations not only does not correct himself, but also becomes even more convinced of his inhumane conclusions.

And we have no moral right to give even the slightest chance to these people to be free, since we are responsible not only for ourselves, but for our compatriots and the state as a whole.
