34This issue (No 3) of the journal “World Eñonomy and International Relations” has a pronounced “regional” focus. But the issue opens with an article by Academician A. Arbatov, which is devoted to a global issue - China's role and place in the system of relations to maintain strategic stability. There are many gray areas in this subject; hence, specialists have different opinions on the prospects for China's participation in strategic arms limitation talks. Arbatov expresses his views on this issue.
Several articles in the economic column are also devoted to topics on the global agenda. Among these topics are industrial policy in the context of Industry 4.0 (by V. Kondratyev, V. Popov and G. Kedrova) and the role of sovereign wealth funds in financing innovations (by I. Strelets and S. Chebanov). In connection with the growing importance of the pharmaceutical industry in modern economics, A. Bereznyi's article on the transformation of business models of "Big Pharma" may be of interest.
N. Timofeev's article is devoted to the analysis of the U.S. sanctions policy, which is as relevant today as ever. The article, which was prepared for publication as early as last year, focuses on the analysis of the goals and mechanisms of this policy.
Among the articles of "regional" character, the problems of international conflicts prevail. The broadest in terms of territorial coverage is the article by A. Krylov and A. Fedorchenko on the old and new problems of the Middle East. The conflict potential of the Eastern Mediterranean is the subject of P. Gudev's article. O. Davydov explores the evolution of the North Korean nuclear problem after the change of the U.S. administration. Turkey's role in the Syrian conflict is the subject of an article by A. Gasanova.
Regional issues are also raised in economic articles. P. Yakovlev examines the readiness of the Latin American economy to digital modernization, and A. Chetverikova examines the investment ties of the "Visegrad Four" countries. An analysis of the specifics of Mongolia's foreign trade and the risks associated with it for Russia is the subject of an article by L. Bezrukov and A. Fartyshev.
The magazine returns to the issue of migration. This time, using Denmark as an example. The influence of one of this country's leading political parties, the People's Party, on the immigration policy of the authorities is explored in an article by A. Badaeva.
