Like the previous GOELRO plan implemented by the young Soviet Russia in the 1920s, the new GOELRO-2 plan represents "the main link that can be pulled successfully by the domestic economy and society out of the ever-increasing set of systemic and other problems".

A. Podolynsky; "the Golden section" Fibonacci; reproducibility of natural resources; conservation of energy-informational potential; cyclical development in the evolution of socio-economic systems; saving time, etc. In its technological basis, the GOELRO-2 plan has the law of conservation of the kinetron pulse, which will allow creating devices and complexes on a fundamentally new scientific basis for converting unlimited, renewable, environmentally friendly energy of kinetrons (the smallest moving particles) into other forms of energy used by mankind. In the future, this will provide civilization with free clean energy, free and harmless CST communication, biomedical CST devices for remote diagnosis and effective treatment of almost any diseases, and other supertechnologies.

In the conditions of the development of modern society, terrorism is a phenomenon that operates within the framework of a well-functioning system, in which significant material and spiritual resources are concentrated, aimed at exercising force or psychological influence on the population. As a phenomenon, terrorism is multidimensional, has various forms of manifestation, is flexible and easily adapts to a changing situation, hides behind a different ideology, and often has a religious component. None of the states at the present stage of development is properly protected from the terrorist threat, and the Russian Federation is no exception in this regard. Therefore, countering terrorism on the territory of Russia beyond its borders is one of the most urgent tasks of the Russian state. Countering terrorist threats involves their prevention. Prevention of terrorism is not only the task of the state (and, first of all, the National Anti-Terrorism Committee of the Russian Federation and the anti-terrorism commissions in the constituent entities of the Russian Federation), but to a large extent, this is the task of representatives of civil society. This work depends on the clear position of public and religious associations, individual citizens. In our country, the prevention of terrorist manifestations should be considered as an instrument for establishing civil peace and combining the efforts of Russian citizens in restoring and strengthening the economic and political potential of our country. The article attempts to analyze the main areas of interaction between the National Anti-Terrorism Committee of the Russian Federation and some civil society institutions.

Authors try to preparate the modern political processes and investigate the trends, which articulate two main positions: unipolar and multipolar world order. Their co-existence is the main subject of economic and political essence and construct the zones of influence. There zones balance between each other and their positions are not constant. To justify the historical necessity of the ongoing transition to multipolarity, the authors introduce the concept of cultural and spiritual dominance. The phenomenon of politics as a kind of worldview, based on the relationship of power and the struggle for power, is regarded as the dominant of modernity, which has a direct relation to international security. It is concluded that it is possible, in the current context, to replace the imperialist policy of force with a policy of security and cooperation based on the principles of international law and universal morality. It is also shown that hybridization is the product of a policy of force, but it is not able to stop the objective process of approving a multipolar world order. The authors see the path to preventing aggressive hegemony in the creation of a pole of power capable of acting as a deterrent in the situation of confrontation with the consolidated "West". According to the authors mind of view, such development will mark the beginning of the transition to an era of moral, humanistic in its spirit of awakening, to an era in which morality and international law will jointly saturate international politics in its function as a modern social dominant.
