Abstract:

Soviet electoral statistics of the 1920s provides a wealth of material for studying political as well as social developments in Russia, including the data on the age, education, property, social composition of voters and deputies of councils and congresses at all levels. This paper refers to the archive material introduced into scientific use for the first time to reconstruct the rise and development of the electoral statistics in the RSFSR in the 1920s as reflecting the main stages in establishing the election machinery and policy fluctuation in Soviet Russia within the timeframe. Institutional and organizational uncertainty in the first half of the 1920s had a negative impact on the completeness and reliability of the information submitted to the NKVD by local executive committees. The concentration of all functions for the organization and management of the election campaign in the Central Election Commission of the Presidium of the Central Executive Committee in 1926 unified and formalized the data collection, improved the registration of voters, increased the accuracy and coverage of the electoral statistics. The variability of the parameters used in the electoral statistics during the 1920s to determine the socioeconomic status of the population seriously complicates their analysis, often making the indicators incomparable.

DOI: 10.17212/2075-0862-2016-2.2-79-87

In the article the reasons to develop metrics alternative to conventional scientometric and bibliometric indicators for assessing the scientific work of the scientist or whole organization are analyzed. Altmetrics is an young discipline (started in 2010), the subject of which is the creation and study of new metrics (alternative metrics) to assess the scientific product (articles, books, presentations, speeches and discussions on the topic of scientific research, computer software, etc.) within the virtual space (the number of discussions in social networks, downloads and views in the scientific repositories and bibliographic managers, and others.) The altmetrics tools are observed. And the positive aspects of the altmetrics and criticisms expressed toward them are considered.

STATISTICS OR GEOPOLITICS?
L.I. Yakovenko
DOI: 10.17212/2075-0862-2016-2.2-75-78
Abstract:

The article assesses the discriminatory content posted on the website "The World of Statistics" that encroaches on Russian identity in the field of statistics. Being only an episode of the virtual negative information impact on professional Internet users, this action cannot but causes regret. "The World of Statistics" is not only a hyperbolized concept of characterizing a wide arsenal of tools and databases used in the process of cognition of the phenomena of the objective world, but also a geographical concept. International statistics should be out of politics. Attempts to exclude individual countries or groups of countries from international statistical space or context are counterproductive. Isolationist policy imposed against Russia in various fields by the international opponents, does not make the world safer and more sustainable, does not contribute to progress in achieving the Millennium development goals contained in the Millennium Declaration of the United Nations.

It considers contradictions between demands made by modern social-economic conditions and leader’s views about the complex of professional and personal qualities that are required to manage and control the structure of organization. The author examines such basic criteria of high management culture of modern employee as knowledge of scientific and organizational management bases, ability to make autonomous decisions and realize them in activity, ability to make effective use of scientific management tools, efficiency, and discipline. Based on the data of sociological research the author comes to a conclusion about non-compliance of the national management culture to the demands of innovative economy. The author substantiates a set of conditions that should be met for the optimization of social management.

Abstract:

This article focuses on the causes of inflation emergence in Russia and the factors causing its growth and decline. The inflationary process in Russia can have a dual effect, as in any other country.

Every country uses its own methods of money circulation regulation. Russia also uses special methods to influence the inflationary process at the current moment. These methods are based on the instruments of monetary policy.
