Authors’ amendments to the Constitution of the Russian Federation: what the working group did not hear
Using historical and comparative research methods, the author of this article has shown that the constitutional reforms that took place in 2020 and reflected in the text of the Constitution of Russia are, to a certain extent, based on the proposals that have already been received from the political and academic community in the process of the constitutional reform of Russia 1990-1993. The author especially welcomes that the Constitution of Russia, having abandoned the liberal-democratic facets has made a bias towards the millennial sovereign, historical and cultural traditions. However, according to the researcher, the Russian Constitution did not take into account the most important amendments, some of which are necessary for the development of civil society institutions, including public control, and certain forms of local self-government. The author revealed the meaning of the proposed amendments to the Constitution of the Russian Federation and offered them to the interested reader for the purpose of further scientific discussion and scientific research on the theory and history of law and state, constitutional and municipal law.
