This article is devoted to the analysis of restructuring in the Russian production sector basing on the worldwide experience of innovative industrial policy with the focus on the role of the government in this process. While the author in the article identifies de- and re-industrialization trends, cluster systems organization as well as development of national innovation systems (NIS) as crucial processes in the global industry great attention is paid to the role of the state in these processes. International practice in developed countries shows that the state plays key role in industrialization process acting as a brainchild in setting target values for R&D industrial expansion implementing institutional, infrastructure, preferential as well as tax relief forms of support. Major advanced economies devote considerable attention to creation of supportive environment for industrial development, including implementation of national innovation systems (NIS) as well as elaboration of the institutional infrastructure industry development programs. Global market industrial trends analysis shows that production sector together with its innovative development will remain a major priority and a driving force in global economic growth. Taking into account present situation of the Russian economy which can be described as critical, time factor is considered to be of great importance, making it necessary to adopt accelerated development model in the Russian economy reforms. A key question to consider is what actions should be adopted by the government to ensure acceleration in economic development of the country.

The subject of the article is to analyze the changes in the grid of municipalities in the Russian Federation during the reform of local government under the influence of demographic factors. The research based on a systems approach to the investigation of the regions where there is interaction between demographic and government subsystem. The main research method was to analyze the legislation and regional statistics. Detailed analysis of the demographic situation in the Kirov Oblast, the impact of natural and the migration decrease on change in the territorial organization of local self-government in the region are analyzed. The prospects of development of the municipal division under the influence of population are defined. It is concluded that in the present time, the grid municipalities in depopulated regions of Russia are not stable and will continue to vary according to the dynamics of population. © 2015 The Journal of Economic Theory.

This article is dedicated to the development
of European unity in Central Europe
and Scandinavia as a mechanism of collective
security and intergovernmental cooperation
development. The cultural and historical features
of Central Europe and Scandinavia emphasize
the need for a comparative study into
the European idea. This article considers the
tendencies and factors which affected the development
of the European idea in the framework
of the post-war planning.
This research sets out to compare and identify
similar or analogous features and elements
of the theoretical bases of movements for European
unity in Central and Northern Europe.
The author comes to the conclusion about
the correlation between the "Europe of regions"
model and the European unity concept.
The ideas of Scandinavian and Central
European integration rested on national, cultural
and historical connections of the neighbouring
countries were expected to constitute
such formations, which contradicted and
were opposed to by the theoretical framework
of Western European integration. On the other
hand, regional integration implied that a
federation or union of the neighbouring states
could be considered a step towards a more
universal organisation, which would not
mean the isolation of Scandinavia and Central
Europe from the rest of the world.
The theoretical and practical significance
of this work lies in the comparative approach
to the analysis of the phenomena which have
been considered individually in the framework
of historiography. It is the major contribution
of the article to the research on history
of ideas and European diplomacy. Moreover,
the subject of research is immediately connected
to the problem of security in the Baltic
region and the Soviet factor, as well as political
stereotypes produced in this field.
The author employed historical comparative
and inductive types of the historical typological
method.

Migration historians have outlined the various kinds of migration shaping African American history in the early twentieth century. But the predominant migration narrative emphasized for African American southerners during the Jim Crow period has depicted a collective centrifugal experience, with black southerners fleeing deadly epicenters of racial violence, poverty, and discrimination as they headed northward or westward to freedom and economic opportunity. Their presumed unidirectional movement away from the South is generally described as constructive, while the decisions of others to remain in the South are often associated with dearth or stasis. Lillian Bertha Jones Horace's many migrations and returns to, from, or within Southern, Western, Northern, and Eastern spaces—including Texas, Kentucky, Illinois, Colorado, and New York—affirm that migration was more nuanced than the predominant South-to-North paradigm suggests. Pushed and pulled by various life exigencies, including educational pursuits, professional opportunities, and family and personal matters, Horace never left the South "for good" but departed and returned many times over the course of her life. Her nuanced migration experience, which began and ended in Texas, suggests the need for examining what I call "boomerang migration" and its implications for African American history in general and the history of African American Southern women in particular.
