Review:
The subject of this research is the norms of international law regulating the questions of study and modification of human genome, as well as their impact upon the development of national legislation of various countries. The authors analyze the law enforcement practice of the European Court on Human Rights, which arrived at certain decisions considering the provisions of international legal acts in the area of genome research, particularly the Oviedo Convention. The article describes the existing in international community approaches to legal regulation of reproductive human cloning and its potential transformations. Based on the conducted comparative analysis of legal approaches to regulation of genome research on the international level along with their impact upon the formation of national legislation in this field, the authors come to the following conclusions: the international legal acts steer the government towards the formation of legal policy in the area of genome research, and creation of the national normative acts that on one hand do not unduly impede the further advancement of the scientific progress, and on the other would resolve the attendant problems of ethical, legal and social character, as well as adhere to human rights. It is recommended to continue formulating the legal and ethical questions in the field of genome research on the international level, comprehensively assessing the risks and variety of the existing problems.

Review:
This article is dedicated to the international standards of personal data protection in the conditions of information society. The author examines the international regulation on the questions of personal data protection, as well as the separate aspects of its implementation in the Russian law; analyzes the concept of personal data in accordance with the existing international act and documents in this sphere. The study also considers the key requirements that must be complied with in processing of personal data based on the existing international acts and documents, as well as responsibilities of the state aimed at ensuring their compliance. The rights and responsibilities of the subjects of legal relations emerging due to personal data protection are revealed. The author underlines the possibility of applicability of international norm protecting the private sphere to the protection of personal data, as well as distribution of the norms and recommendations onto the states that are not their members, along with citizens and organizations of such countries. The conclusion is made on the broad understanding of personal data in accordance with the existing international norms, primarily the Convention for the Protection of Individuals with regard to Automatic Processing of Personal Data, signed in 1981; need for demarcation of the pseudo-minimized and anonymous data; compliance with the minimum general requirements to the processing of personal data, and behavior of the subjects of such legal relations.

Challenges of improving legal regime of remote probing of Earth from space

Review:
Remote probing of Earth from space is rapidly developing. This field has a range of problems hindering the efficient implementation of such type of space activity. The absence of an interstate special normative act leads to the fact that the relations between the producers and users of data, obtained in the process of probing, are most often regulated by private companies. Some customs of such regulations currently form in the United States and the European Union. However, the number of global space powers is growing and requires due legal unification. The article provides recommendation, namely with regards to legal regulation of compensation for damage in case of conducting remote probing. The author underlines the relevance for elaboration of legal norms regulating access and usage of data acquired in the course of probing. The article also covers the questions of commercial use of information obtained as a result of space activity.

Review:
This article analyzes the concept, subject and role of international debt law (IDL) within the system of international economic law; examines the specificity of the subject of IDL; classifies legal relations falling under the subject of international debt law; lists special regulatory principles of the international debt legal relations. The author also examines the question of interrelation between IDL and international credit law, international; budget law, law on international economic aid, and developmental law. In conclusion, the author formulates the definition of IDL, which implies the set of international legal principles regulating the relations: with regards to defaulted (overdue) sovereign debt; debt restructuring (discharge); financial control over fulfilling debt obligations of the countries; debt succession and redemption (including resolution of debt disputes): as well as with regards to anti-crisis “debt” relief. The international debt law is viewed as an institution of one of the sub-branches of international economic law – the international financial law. As an independent institution, the international financial law closely interacts with the international budget law, law on international economic aid, as well as international developmental law.

Review:
The subject of this research is the legal framework of the EAEU member-states with regards to legislation on science, and the Treaty on the Eurasian Economic Union for incorporation of single, within EAEU, platform of scientific cooperation for successful functioning of the uniform scientific infrastructure in the context of establishment of the EAEU single services market in the field of scientific research. The EU legislation on the matter is analyzed. Based on the research results, the author draws the conclusion that at the present stage the creation of the single supranational platform of scientific cooperation in EAEU depends on elimination of certain discrepancies in legislation of the EAEU member-states, and experience of the European Union on establishment of the single platform of scientific cooperation may be applied by the EAEU member-states considering the existing legal framework in form of the Treaty of the Eurasian Economic Union.
