ON THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN THE CONCEPTS OF "COMBATING TERRORISM" AND "MINIMIZING AND (OR) ELIMINATING MANIFESTATIONS TERRORISM" IN THE FIGHT AGAINST NUCLEAR TERRORISM
The article considers the correlation between the theoretical and legal concepts of «combating terrorism» and «minimizing and (or) eliminating the consequences of manifestations of terrorism» in relation to the fight against nuclear terrorism. The relevance of the topic is caused by the need to clarify the regulatory functions of the EMERCOM of Russia and its territorial bodies in countering terrorism in the context of the paradigm shift in anti-terrorist activities. On the basis of a systematic analysis, the author reveals discrepancies in the conceptual approaches in the EMERCOM of Russia system itself to such activities, which in practice narrows the departmental sphere of activity. The practical orientation of the work is expressed in the development and formulation of the necessary proposals for adjusting the functions of the EMERCOM of Russia in order to amend the Regulations on the Ministry and bring it into compliance with the current legislation.
