Mirumyan R. Myth-making as a determining component of formation of political consciousness of the Armenian nation (PDF) 📥 ABSTRACT. In the article postulates and substantiates the thesis, that the political consciousness of the Armenian nation arose in the depths of the ancient Armenian worldview, which was mythological by its nature. Essentially, the political consciousness, mythological consciousness, as well as the worldview coordinate grid of the ancient Armenians represents a certain semantic triangle. And the core and basis of this semantic triangle is the desire for independence of one’s own existence, which reflects the specifics and level of development of self-knowledge/self-awareness of the ancient Armenians. And it is in the Armenian heroic tale of Hayk and Bel that the idea of independence is born as a condition for the realization of the freedom-loving nature and dignified existence, which are inherent to Armenians. Further (until the 20th century), the idea of independence of national existence formed the basis of the historical memory of the Armenian nation and became the core of Armenian philosophical, historical and political-philosophical concepts. One of the vivid demonstration of the semantic connection between worldview, mythological consciousness, and political consciousness was the Armenian national epic “Sasuntsi David,” which began forming approximately in the 7th century. Recorded in the “History of Armenia” by the father of Armenian historiography Movses Khorenatsi the ancient legend about the progenitor of the Armenians Hayk and the Armenian national epic “Sasuntsi David” became the archetypes of the Armenian national identity and cultural codes of the Armenian nation. |

Voskanyan M., Petrosyan D. Analysis and valuation of assets of pension funds of the Republic of Armenia (PDF) 📥 ABSTRACT. As is known, pension funds, by their nature, carry several strategic tasks: they form long-term money, solve the social problem of providing for the population of retirement age, stimulate the development of capital markets and, in general, have a positive effect on the development of the financial system in the country. At the same time, an important issue is the reliability of pension fund assets and the predictability of risks that may be included in investments by pension funds. In this regard, given Armenia's transition to a funded pension system and the accumulation of a fairly large amount of capital in pension funds, the analysis and assessment of the assets of these funds is relevant, including in the context of the high level of volatility of global and regional stock markets. |

Avagyan I. Defense counsel's participation in juvenile proceedings (PDF) 📥 ABSTRACT. TThe current criminal procedure legislation establishes a single procedure for th investigation of all crimes, that is, a single procedural form and guarantees that ensure both effective investigation of crimes and protection of individual rights. The right of a minor accused to receive high-quality legal assistance is proclaimed both by the, Constitution of the Republic of Armenia and the Code of Criminal Procedure, which defines the institution of mandatory participation of a defender, which in turn is a guarantee of effective protection of the rights and legitimate interests of the accused. The provision of mandatory participation of a defender in criminal procedural cases involving minors is conditioned by their age, mental state, lack of life experience and legal knowledge. The above indicates that it is necessary to provide mandatory participation of a defender for a minor in an adversarial process. The participation of the defender ensures the implementation of the tasks of juvenile justice, that is, not to punish the person who allegedly committed the crime, but to educate him, to make him |

Avetisyan D. Regulation of grounds excluding criminal liability under the new legislation of the Republic of Armenia (PDF) 📥 ABSTRACT. The establishment of criminal law prohibitions and, at the same time, the systematization and structuring of legal norms that exclude criminal liability (punishability of an act) is one of the most important directions of the modern criminal law policy of the state. One of the advantages of the new Criminal Code of the Republic of Armenia (hereinafter referred to as the RA Criminal Code, adopted on 05.05.2021, entered into force on 07.01.2022) is, on the one hand, the systematization of grounds excluding criminality of an act, and on the other, the expansion of the system of such grounds. At the same time, instead of Chapter 8 of the RA Criminal Code of 2003 (Circumstances excluding criminality of an act), in the new Criminal Code, Chapter 6 is called “Grounds excluding criminal liability”, which attempts to unify such grounds, which were previously scattered throughout the General Part of the Criminal Code. Further research of new foundations has important scientific and practical significance, some of which have received their legislative consolidation for the first time. |

Ghahramanyan A. About some problems related to modification and termination of leasing obligations (PDF) 📥 ABSTRACT. TThe article addresses some issues related to the modification and termination of leasing obligations. The study finds that the legal provisions concerning these matters are not always capable of fully protecting the interests of the parties involved in leasing relationships and promoting the active development of leasing in our country. The article presents proposals, which can contribute to the solution of law enforcement issues, arising in connection with modification and termination of leasing obligations. In conditions of imperfection of legislative framework and absence of domestic case law on leasing matters, these proposals, in our view, are of interest. The recommendations derived from the analysis may also be used to improve the existing legislation. |
