The article describes the impact of the Mass Media on the formation of the worldview of the young. This impact may be positive or negative. On the one hand, the media educate young people and enhance their participation in public life. On the other hand, they may mislead or promote false values, and manipulate the young generation’s consciousness. What helps people not to get involved into the tried-and-true crowd manipulation scheme in the media landscape is critical thinking, whose lack results in inability to choose the right guidelines in the flow of false information provided by various Media. The authors emphasize the role of the state, which, regarding the needs of the society, should enculturate the young generation, as well as exercise tight control over communication in the global web and publications in the Internet Media and social networks. One of the directions of the state’s policy is expanding the geography of information and communication technologies, and the other is ensuring information security of the young in general and adolescents in particular. To provide this, the state develops organizational and legal mechanisms aimed at protecting children from harmful information in the web, and requirements for the content, its expert evidence and government control. The article demonstrates the results of a study carried out by the authors to assess the current youth Media and their influence on criminality. The key criterion for selecting participants of the focus group was young age, since the young are the most active and the least protected players in the media landscape. The sampling was made by random choice in order to ensure equal opportunities for participation in the study.
The authors analyze the use of sanitary logging to commit forestry crimes in Russia, placing a special emphasis on regional trends. They study how the situation with illegal logging has been changing since the adoption of the new Forest Code of the Russian Federation, describe the specific features of forest health-improvement measures (sanitary logging) and their influence on the size of the shadow sector in the timber industry, pay attention to the consequences of adopting rule-making initiatives in the forestry sector by the end of 2018. It is proven that since 2017 (the introduction of the new Forest Code) the structure of illegal loggers changed a lot, while the active rule-making work by federal and regional authorities was aimed at widening the opportunities for abuses in the forest sector. The authors present their opinion regarding the quality of the package of bylaws that develop the clauses of the Forest Code in the sphere of sanitary logging. It is noted that a large number of such bylaws led to the problem of their coordination not only with the existing normative base, but also with each other. Besides, some clauses of these bylaws allow for their deliberate interpretation, which leads to the overstatement of the number of trees and the volume of timber stand to be logged. The authors discuss a number of controversial norms that make it possible to increase the areas of clear cutting. Forest legislation is extremely conservative. It is supported by the fact that the goals that the introduced norms intend to obtain are sometimes reached years later. It is beneficial when different amendments are introduced with the aim of improving the condition of the forests rather than contribute to the growth of corruption in the forest sector. The results of such lawmaking are analyzed using the specific examples of forestries in Irkutsk Region in the past two years (2017–2018). The authors stress that it is necessary to eliminate the identified drawbacks in the legislative regulation of sanitary logging as one of the key elements in the development of the measures of special prevention of criminal activities in the timber industrial complex.
