Actual Issues of Legal Regulation and Protection of Rights of National Minorities and Indigenous Small-numbered Peoples in the Russian Federation

Abstract

The protection of national rights remains a weak link in the entire system of human rights protection. It is no coincidence that after the Second World War, the principle of respect for human rights, including the rights of national minorities and indigenous minorities, became one of the most important comprehensive norms of international law. In this regard, it seems important to identify the specifics of state regulation of the observance of the rights of national minorities and indigenous peoples.
