Problems and prospects of the evolution of the constitutional system of the Russian Federation
Abstract
The article discusses the impact of the global crisis of representative democracy and liberal capitalism on the renewal of the constitutional system of the Russian Federation, the formation of a state of social solidarity. In this process, civil self-government is becoming the most promising form of social self-organization of the Russian people, based on universal political equality of citizens. The right of the people to a national ideology, direct political communication of citizens and everyone’s participation in the governance of the State creates a modern basis for its unity and sovereignty. Social solidarity as a national idea, a constitutional principle and the basis of democracy, acquires a practical sound and presupposes Russia’s transition to a new level of popular support. The renewal of Russian statehood is a key condition for its survival.
