Further development of legislation ensuring the development of Russian education in line with global trends means the need for a supra-sectoral approach to the legal regulation of this sphere. Harmonization of the educational space provided by the Bologna Accord, development of new forms of interaction between universities, implementation of new educational models, including project training, work in interdisciplinary teams, determine the need for new formats of international scientific research as well. Educational legislation no longer provides an answer to many challenges of the time, a significant breakthrough is required in the legal regulation of scientific interaction of an interethnic nature, including the state level. In the context of globalization processes, the concept of scientific space, which has several definitions, is becoming increasingly common. The main characteristics that can be distinguished are "interaction of research centers and schools", "environment for ensuring the functioning and development of science and technology", in a more general perspective – "mobile system". Scientific cooperation involves interaction at several levels: interstate, regional and interregional, interdepartmental, at the level of relations between scientific organizations, research teams, educational institutions, scientists. Based on previous research on the structure of the scientific space, the authors attempted to develop an idea of scientific and technical space in terms of its legal regulation on the example of various regional economic cooperation organizations (EU, SCO, ASEAN). Among common challenges that are a logical consequence of scientific cooperation, the authors' research interest is also attracted by the problems of intellectual property rights protection and digitalization of relations in modern society. It is noted that a comprehensive legal entity, known in legal circulation as digital (information) law is becoming the instrument of regulation in the new conditions.the new conditions.
