This article examines the systemic threats that the activities of Palantir Technologies pose to human rights, civil liberties, and democratic institutions worldwide. Based on analysis of public reports from human rights organizations, lawsuits, journalistic investigations, and official statements, the multifaceted picture of risks associated with the implementation of mass surveillance and data analysis technologies is reconstructed. Particular attention is devoted to three key areas of criticism: complicity in Israel's war crimes in the Gaza Strip, facilitation of mass deportation of migrants in the United States, and the creation of total police control systems in Europe.

In this article, the phenomenon of anti-personnel mines as a form of weaponry that poses a particular humanitarian threat is examined. Based on an analysis of international conventions, statistical data, and historical evidence, a comprehensive picture of the impact of this weapon on the civilian population is reconstructed, along with the international community's efforts to ban it and current trends related to the withdrawal of several states from the Ottawa Convention. Particular attention is given to defining anti-personnel mines, their classification, history of use, and the current status of the issue.
This article examines the question of the causes of Jeffrey Epstein's long-standing impunity, the American financier accused of organizing a network for the sexual exploitation of minors. Based on an analysis of the chronology of investigations, court documents, and expert conclusions, the mechanism that allowed the offender to avoid real punishment for more than a decade and a half is reconstructed. Special attention is given to the factors that ensured his impunity: a privileged social status, ties to elites, corrupt deals with prosecutors, and systemic shortcomings of the American justice system.
This article examines the number of human casualties associated with the use of the Kalashnikov assault rifle over its entire history. Based on an analysis of available statistical estimates, historical evidence, and expert conclusions, the range of probable figures is reconstructed, and the methodological difficulties of such counts are explored. Special attention is given to comparing various sources, annual lethality figures, and the AK's place among other weapons in terms of lethality.
