Summary/Abstract |
TODAY, international relations, global problems and the scientific community are much closer connected than at any time in the past. The mounting wave of risks and threats demands scientific studies, analyses and assessments as the starting point for dealing with multiplying crises and defining them. No wonder scientists with adequate knowledge and adequate instruments of research sounded an alarm in an effort to arrest the movement to the point of no-return. Their concerns about the processes and the phenomena that might endanger the very existence of mankind developed into an important factor of international life long before the movement acquired organizational forms and the Union of Concerned Scientists (UCS) was set up in the United States.

Summary/Abstract |
In launching a renegotiation of the terms of British membership, and thereby declaring the current settlement to be inadequate, Prime Minister David Cameron has contrived to make a confusing case for the United Kingdom remaining part of the European Union. His task is made more difficult by the fact that – like many other supporters of the EU – he is selling a vision of Europe that misrepresents both the EU’s weaknesses and its greatest strength.

Summary/Abstract |
Someone may find the idea strange of a link between demography and terrorism. Is this plausible or is it far-fetched? The meaning of my reflections is that the demographic component of what we now call international terrorism (although I am not sure that this is an accurate definition of what is happening today) is very important, yet I certainly do not mean to assert that only demographic events and processes fuel terrorism. Nevertheless, understanding the essence of global demographic processes has made it possible to foresee the present growth of terrorist threats long before they became a stark reality of our world today.

Summary/Abstract |
TODAY, the world is living amid global changes in which political realities "are shaped, to an increasing degree, by global political instability, a product of erosion of the Westphalian system and increasingly chaotic international relations. They provide the background against which a new multipolar world order is being shaped."1 The system of international relations is gradually slipping toward anarchy2 amid the mounting crisis of the idea of a "democratic world," the pivotal concept of the unipolar world.

Summary/Abstract |
Mobile apps and tablets have assumed a prominent position in the landscape of technology use in education and training, as anticipated by the EDUCAUSE 2012 Horizon Report. With mobile phone subscriptions totaling around six billion, and predictions that sales of tablets and e-book readers will increase substantially as prices continue to fall, mobile devices are rightly seen as a compelling means of solving pressing global problems in education. Numerous successes have already been recorded.

Summary/Abstract |
Migration issues spark fierce debates in Russian society. But migration is a truly global phenomenon, and labor migration is a key element of the international labor market. According to the U.N., there are 231.5 million international migrants in the world today, including 135.6 million in the industrialized countries and 95.9 million in the developing ones. But the actual numbers must be much bigger since these estimates do not include numerous irregular migrants, both international and domestic. In this respect, there is little difference between migration problems faced by Russia and by other major immigration countries.
