The article is devoted to an outstanding Russian criminologist Yuri Vladimirovich Golik. Yu.V. Golik, being a creative person, drew attention to one of the trends of modern world science - synergetics - at the beginning of his scientific career. The synergetic approach means a fundamentally new view of the development of nature and society, in contrast to classical paradigms in science. The young scientist was attracted by the interdisciplinary character of synergetics. Later, in his work «Synergetics and Crime», he singled out the main parameters of the synergetic approach important for criminology: interaction that generates a new quality; self-organization of open systems with nonlinear feedbacks, including understanding of crime in the light of synergetic approach as an open self-organizing system, etc. The main stages of the life of Yu.V. Golik are indirectly related to synergistic principles in one way or another. His graduation thesis, and then his Ph.D. thesis, are devoted to the problem of an accidental criminal. Accidentality was considered by the author from a synergetic point of view as a way of comprehending internally hidden regularities. Engaging in the fight against corruption, Yu.V. Golik also draws attention to a need for non-traditional approaches, both to study it and to eradicate it. In a monograph written in co-authorship with V.I. Karasev, «Corruption as a Mechanism of Social Degradation», a paradoxical conclusion is made, in a spirit of synergetics, that a change in legal reality not only mobilizes socially-organized population to solve radically new global problems, but also objectively contributes to socially dangerous behavior. Such a warning is important for developing adequate means of crime prevention even at the stage of designing legal reforms. Synergetic principles were applied by Yu.V. Golik in his doctoral dissertation «Positive stimuli in criminal law (concept, content, prospects)». Yuriy Vladimirovich publically discussed such unusual law regulation issues as the consequences of positive incentives, the «boundlessness» of positive incentives in contrast to the limited nature of negative incentives, etc. Against the backdrop of doubts raised by some scholars about the appropriateness of the synergetic approach in social sciences and, in particular, in law, it should be noted that the synergy of Yu.V. Golik was justifiably applied in those times when a new unconventional understanding of social and legal reality was required.
The existence of any state is connected with socio-economic and political-legal processes in the world. During the period of global social transformations and major economic and political re-forms, Russia finds itself in a socio-political situation of necessity to protect its interests, includ-ing economic ones. Therefore, the legislator solves the most important task of legal provision of economic security by criminal legal means. This text aims to examine the theoretical foundations of economic security, analyze the current state of the Russian economy with its level of functional security and identify ways to improve security and criminal law provisions. The methodology of this research is a set of methods, techniques and tools of cognition used in research, both theoreti-cal, empirical and applied. The authors concluded that the main threat to the economic security of the country is economic crimes, the fight against which is impossible without criminal legislation. Therefore, the modernization of criminal policy should be carried out by improving legislation and introducing a well-thought-out system of law enforcement, which includes a similar valuation of all subjects of economic relations.
The article deals with the actual problem of the spread of information terrorism in the world space. Information terrorism is a new type of criminal activity. Terrorists use modern information resources, the Internet to spread the ideology of terrorism. The general scientific dialectical method and a complex of scientific methods of cognition (system-structural, formal-logical) represent the methodological basis of the research. The results reached by the authors are that in modern conditions the threat of information terrorism has become a reality. Comprehensive prevention of the threat of information terrorism must be carried out within the framework of reforming the country through the widespread automation and digitalization of all life support facilities, as well as the country's integration into international information exchange. In the conclusion, the authors formulated the main conclusions of the study, substantiated the need to develop measures to counter information terrorism.
