An article about the dialectical laws of the genesis of social organization and social systems. The author suggests using a new classification of social relations for the methodological study of the evolution of social systems. The work is based on the methodology of general systems theory and the theory of I.R. Prigogine.
The institutional theory assumes influence uneconomic factors on dynamics of economic development. The number of such factors includes system, cyclic and adaptable processes. The author offers new interpretation of the conceptual device of the institutional theory, based application of a heritage of German sociologist Niklas Luchmann, the theory of self-organising and the theory of business cycles.

The article analyzes the features of the formation and development of the theory of biophilia by E. Fromm. The relevance of the concept in modern socio-political, environmental conditions is indicated. The interrelation of social character with socio-economic, political and natural structures of the territories is shown. The "green economy" models in individual countries and their pseudo-ecological compatibility are characterized. The alternative social practices that contribute to the sustainable development of regions are studied. The conclusion is made about the need to change the dominant social character in order to ensure co-evolution of territorial systems.Key words: biophilia, social character, co-evolution, territorial systems, consumption, material and energy metabolism. ; В статье анализируются особенности становления и развития концепции биофилии Э. Фромма. Обозначена актуальность концепции в современных социально-политических и экологических условиях.

Article on the use of the paradigm of self-organization theory as a basis for the application of scientific methodology in the humanitarian and economic disciplines. The author substantiates the link between the laws of dialectics, thermodynamics, biology and patterns of socio-economic development.
Physiological rhythms are the basis of life. Rhythmic processes interact with each other and with the environment. To understand the mechanisms of physiological rhythms and the functioning of the most vital organs and systems of man particularly relevant is the use of nonlinear dynamics
Russian and foreign scientists, as well as government authorities show considerable interest in the theory of economic space. This explains the necessity to expand the theory and elaborate a special field – the theory of spatial systems, determine the typology and features of the evolution, and the patterns of the eco-nomic space transformation. The article is devoted to clarifying the content of the components, development trajectories of spatial economic systems in the context of the impact of changes in the sectoral spaces of the re-gions. The theoretical and methodological basis of the study were the scientific representations of the theory of evolutionary economics and dependence on the path of development, the methodology of "new locality" and the system-dynamic approach. It has been shown that the factors of transformation of regional industrial spaces (external, accidental, shock factors) act mainly to consolidate the existing industrial characteristics, increasing the effect of "locked" sectors. The authors present hypothetical variants of models for the evolution of industry spaces, forms of selection and consolidation of their characteristics (driving, disruptive and stabilizing selections); a variety of transformation iterations aimed at development of monostructural economic system is highlighted (taking into account the connectedness, changes in the macro-environment, in-herited features and the existing program for the functioning of traditional industry). The conclusions of the study are the basis for the formation of a scientifically based methodology for the strategic planning of the spatial development of regions, the creation of methodological approaches and modeling the evolution of monospecialized regions of Russia. ; Возрастающий интерес к развитию теории экономического пространства как со стороны представителей зарубежной и отечественной науки, так и со стороны органов государственного управления обуславливает необходимость расширения теории и развития особого направления – теории ...
The author's point of view is presented, according to which, formulated back in the 80s of the last century by Yu.M. Lopukhin et al., the cholesterol theory of aging and death is now often misunderstood by many biologists and physicians. It is emphasized that this theory prioritized not the well-known role of cholesterol (CS) in metabolic processes, but its structural role in the plasma membrane of the cell. It was assumed that an increase in the microviscosity of the cell membrane due to the accumulation of CS in it leads to a deterioration in the transfer of external signals and nutrients to the cell, as well as to a decrease in the activity of membrane enzymes. This, according to the authors, triggers the occurrence of "senile" changes in cells, tissues and organs, and then in the entire multicellular organism, which ultimately leds to an increase in the probability of its death, that is, to aging. At the same time, the content of CS (mainly, of considered to be especially "bad" CS of low density lipoproteins) in serum was assigned only a minor role, because its increase is not at all necessary, according to the authors of the concept, leads to adverse changes in the body. This paper briefly discusses the evolution of ideas about the possible role of CS in aging and the development of various age-related pathologies, mainly cardiovascular diseases and mental disorders. Experimental data on the effect of liposomes containing both normal and oxidized CS on the proliferative activity of cultured cells are analyzed. The data of longitudinal studies are considered, suggesting that, paradoxically, it is people with elevated levels of CS in the blood plasma who live to an advanced age. At the same time, the consumption of large amounts of food rich in CS may not affect the health of some patients. It is noted that a number of studies indicate the absence of a causal relationship between the level of CS in serum and the occurrence of atherosclerotic changes. It is emphasized that CS is a very important compound for our body, without which cell proliferation and, as a result, normal regeneration are impossible. It is noted that there is a continuously increasing amount of data on the negative role of statins in the formation of age-related pathology, especially in people of older age groups. It is concluded that at present it becomes obvious that there is a need for a significant reappraisal (using the systems approach) of ideas about the possible role of CS in aging, the development of atherosclerosis and other age-related diseases, as well as dementias due to various causes, including Alzheimer's disease.
The article provides an overview of international and Russian literature on the genesis and development of System Research in IR studies, demonstrates the emergence of System Research in Russia and in the world, the development of the general theory of systems. It is shown that at the fi rst stage, the representatives of natural sciences tried to identify the isomorphism between the international relations system and other systems (biological, physical). In this context, the attempts to form a general theory of international confl ict could be viewed. It is noted that at the beginning of the 1970s, these attempts ended unsuccessfully in general. The second area of international relations system modeling is related to the work of structural realists, primarily K. Waltz and M. Kaplan. Despite the fact that in their papers the verbal analysis dominates over the formal international relations system model, they have madea signifi cant contribution to the political science in perception of the systems theory. The paper also describes the system modeling in the context of the Neo-Marxist theory of international relations, fi rst and foremost, in the meaning of the I. Wallerstein's world-system theory. Special attention is paid to the systemic research crisis in the IR science at the turn of 1980-1990s, also due to a sharp change in the international situation, and the transition from a predominantly deterministic world of the Cold War to the post-bipolar non-equilibrium international system. The authors clearly reveal the evolution of the international relations perception in terms of the systems theory. They also illustrate the intensifi cation of the international system modeling in the XXIst century on the basis of a new methodology - via the use of the more sophisticated complexity theory (the theory of complex systems), as well as by adapting the sociological theory of structuration by A. Giddens in political sciences. Showing the most promising areas of the complexity theory practical application in the modeling of international relations - agentbased modeling and simulation of system dynamics, - the authors enumerate the most promising spheres for the system modeling in international studies.

In the present paper, on the basis of the theory of production principles and production revolutions, we reveal the interrelation between K-waves and major technological breakthroughs in history and make some predictions about features of the sixth Kondratieff wave in the light of the Cybernetic Revolution which, we think, started in the 1950s. We assume that the sixth K-wave in the 2030s and 2040s will merge with the final phase of the Cybernetic Revolution (which we call the phase of self-regulating systems). This period will be characterized by breakthroughs in medical technologies which will manage to combine many other technologies into a single complex of MBNRIC-technologies (med-bio-nano-robo-info-cognitive technologies). The article offers some predictions concerning the development of these technologies.
