The article is about legal status of artificial plots of
land in International law. The authors briefly tell about
the history of development of modern international
maritime law. Then the authors analyze United
Nations Convention’s 1982 on The Law of The Sea
norms about legal status of artificial plots of lands
situated in different regions of marine space: in the
territorial sea, the contiguous zone, on the continental
shelf, in the exclusive economic zone, on the high
seas. The convention includes terms of the same
nature, for example, artificial island, installations,
structures, devices and constructions. The term
«constructions» is collective for all objects, that was
made by people in the maritime space. At the same
time, the Convention divides some kinds of artificial
things. In addition, the article is about State
Sovereignty issues of artificial objects, which are
placed in the maritime space. The authors established
some parallels between International law rules and
Russian law rules, which govern the legal status of
artificial plots of land
The article is devoted to the study of the structure of
the apparatus of propaganda of the Volunteer army
and Armed forces of South Russia under the
command of General M. V. Alekseev, as well as the
changes implemented in this structure by generals A.
I. Denikin and P. N. Wrangell. We have highlighted
the high importance of an effective propaganda
mechanism during the civil war and iIndicated the
reasons why the propaganda machine on the "White
South" lost the efficiency of similar structures of the
Bolsheviks. We considered such reasons as the
absence in the Volunteer army powerful single
ideology, as the basis for further indoctrination, the
Bolsheviks significant advantage in material and
technical equipment and production capacity, and
advantage in time, as the propaganda machine of the
Bolsheviks began to form several years before the
outbreak of the civil war. The article reveals the
formation process of the news propaganda of the
Department of diplomatic division and its subsequent
reformation in the Publicity Agency (Oswag) of the
Chairman of a Special meeting. We have also
touched upon the dissolution of Osweg at P. N.
Wrangel and the establishment of a number of
departments executing its functions. It is concluded,
that the changes in the structure of the propaganda of
anti-Bolshevik movement in South Russia, were
excessively complicated and mostly formal in nature,
they did not solve existing problems, but only
created new ones. It is noted, that the main task of all
transformations in the apparatus of propaganda, i.e.
to overcome the significant advantages of the
propagandists of Bolshevism, was not achieved as a
result of the considered structural reforms
