In article based on the materials of the American mass media the author constructs the autonomy process of Northeast China during the period preceding the Japanese-Chinese war of 1937-1945. The Japanese policy main stages on the creation of the semi-autonomous territories, the reasons interfering this plan implementation in whole, which it should be noted major confrontation in the Japan Cabinet, when the moderate politicians group supporting peaceful resolution of contradictions was headed by the Minister of Foreign Affairs, and the militarists group - the minister of army and the command of Kwantung army supporting him, are established. Concluded that, first, Japan, being afraid of the negative international reaction, tried to solve the problem not military, but diplomatic and methods, and secondly, the Japanese policy on the continent was inconsistent and it was expressed in impossibility at an initial stage to achieve the status of the autonomy for five Chinese provinces and to declare the Autonomous Council of East Hebei, which under control territory covered only small part of one of the Chinese provinces. Creation of the Hopei-Chahar Political Council allowed both the Japanese, and the Chinese sides “to save face”, and the military campaign, which began in the summer of 1937, finished the transition process of the China northeast provinces under the Japan control through the creation of the quasi-state the Chinese Republic by the end of 1937. Invaders received in the order such tools as the circulation of the precious metals and drugs, finance, oil monopoly, customs points, etc., thereby having provided complete control over the region economy.

This article reviews the basic methodological approaches to the arrangement of the logistics supply of manufacturing, research or tourism facilities based in the Arctic. The main purpose of this article was to optimize the processes of supply the Arctic territories with the use of high-tech approach, which integrates the concept of "green" logistics technology (reverse logistics, in particular) and methods of economic and mathematical modeling for inventory management and planning the purchase of resources necessary to ensure the proper functioning of the Arctic facilities. Taking into account the fact that the Arctic holds interests of many countries and corporations, as well as taking into account the fact that further development of the Arctic must be environmentally responsible, the integration of traditional and new approaches to the arrangement of supply of the Arctic facilities through the use of reverse logistic technologies of economic and mathematical modeling using the correlation-regression analysis were proposed.

This article is devoted to the research of the reasons behind the occurrence of the crisis in Greece and challenges and opportunities that arise both for the global economy and the economy of the European Union (EU). The theme of the article is rather urgent by reason of incomplete understanding of the nature of the crisis in Greece, its suddenness and impossibility to predict its consequences for the global economic relations. The main goal of stating the materials in this article is to analyze the reasons of the crisis in Greece in terms of economy, history, sociology, and other scientific areas. Basic tasks include the following: To reveal a complex of all aspects of the economic crisis in Greece, to analyze its deep (historical) reasons, and to reveal challenges for the world economy and economy of the EU and Russia related to the Greek crisis. The flowing basic conclusions were made within the article: (1) The crisis in Greece has not only economic but also political reasons. However, at the same time the Greek crisis cannot be solved only in terms of economy. It is necessary to take systematic measures to solve the occurred problems, (2) the economic crisis is only a visible part of structural problems of the Greek economy. At the present time a great number of social, technological, and humanitarian problems have been hidden behind the mass revealing of economic crisis tendencies, (3) the basic reason of the economic crisis is in the incompliance of social and economic model of the Greece development with the EU based on the West-European logics of functioning. Practical application of the results of this work by scientists and economists will allow to objectively reconsider the essence of the Greek crisis, and make conclusions that will contribute to the development of recommendations aiming at preventing the crisis in other countries.

This article considers the role of gold in the world economy and its place in contemporary structures of gold-value reserves of the leading countries of the world. It also takes into account the historical experience of using gold in various periods (epochs). The theme of the article is rather urgent at the moment of transformation and occurrence of a new transitional stage in the world economy, because traditionally at any transitional period the investment activity was focused on the least risky investments. Investments in precious metals are thought to be such investments. They do not lose their value and price during the long period of time. The following essential conclusions were received within this article: 1) Gold is the most demanded precious metal in terms of decreasing risks of accumulation and investments. The main part of the gold obtained industrially is presented by centralized reserves (standard ingots of chemically pure gold). 2) Gold mining is limited in the world because natural reserves of this metal are irretrievable; at the same time modern physical and chemical technologies allow to artificially grow crystals of gold; however, such technologies are characterized by high cost and low level of returns from their use. 3) Gold as a resource will continue playing a psychologically stabilizing role; herewith, the information resource (business information) required for ensuring the world stable social and economic development will get basic value.

Some issues related to the problems of development of the Arctic and subarctic areas, which according to various expert estimates contain between 15% and 25% of the world reserves of primary energy resources, are presented and disclosed in this article. The purpose of this article is to develop a system of global economic and energy security provision in the context of advanced deposits developments in the Arctic. The goals set were consistently achieved, in particular: the general trends of the energy development of civilization were examined, the legal issues concerning the status of the subarctic and Arctic regions were considered, and the basic global trends of world energy development and the system of global energy security provision were defined. The following fundamental findings were obtained: Firstly, the subarctic and Arctic areas represent world heritage, so the development of deposits therein should be in the interests of the world community on a non-discriminatory basis. Secondly, civilization’s future energy supplies will be based on the harmony of traditional and renewable energy sources, which determines the need to rationalize the consumption of energy resources at present. Thirdly, the environmental issues of prospective development of the Arctic and subarctic areas are sufficiently acute and debatable that non-aggressive technologies of primary energy resource extraction from the Arctic fields should be used. Significant reserves of hydrocarbon resources in the Arctic shelf allow estimation of a significant global rental potential, despite the territorial remoteness and difficult climatic conditions that greatly increase the cost of development in these areas. Therefore, the planning and management of the Arctic and subarctic areas should be considered as a strategic reserve of sustainable global socio-economic development.

Some issues related to the problems of development of the Arctic and subarctic areas, which according to various expert estimates contain between 15% and 25% of the world reserves of primary energy resources, are presented and disclosed in this article. The purpose of this article is to develop a system of global economic and energy security provision in the context of advanced deposits developments in the Arctic. The goals set were consistently achieved, in particular: the general trends of the energy development of civilization were examined, the legal issues concerning the status of the subarctic and Arctic regions were considered, and the basic global trends of world energy development and the system of global energy security provision were defined. The following fundamental findings were obtained: Firstly, the subarctic and Arctic areas represent world heritage, so the development of deposits therein should be in the interests of the world community on a non-discriminatory basis. Secondly, civilization's future energy supplies will be based on the harmony of traditional and renewable energy sources, which determines the need to rationalize the consumption of energy resources at present. Thirdly, the environmental issues of prospective development of the Arctic and subarctic areas are sufficiently acute and debatable that non-aggressive technologies of primary energy resource extraction from the Arctic fields should be used. Significant reserves of hydrocarbon resources in the Arctic shelf allow estimation of a significant global rental potential, despite the territorial remoteness and difficult climatic conditions that greatly increase the cost of development in these areas. Therefore, the planning and management of the Arctic and subarctic areas should be considered as a strategic reserve of sustainable global socio-economic development.
