Constitutional Reform Within The Context Of Individual Economic Freedom Security In Russia

Abstract

The article refers to constitutional reform and its critical role in the individual economic freedom security as well as enhancing the organization effectiveness and functioning of public authority in modern Russia. The constitutional amendments of 2020, while not altering the foundations of the constitutional order, are essential for the development and implementation of an appropriate constitutional and legal framework, personal economic freedom guarantees, creation by State an enabling environment to ensure the economic growth and well-being of citizens. The special role of the Russian Federation Government and its agencies in fulfilling these tasks is recalled. However, attention is drawn to the certain deteriorating trends in implementation of some state programs and projects in the economic sphere and, as a corollary, the failure of Russia to meet planned growth targets. To ensure the regulatory framework for this purpose – the state responsibility to create conditions for sustainable economic growth, it is urged to establish a unified, integrated strategy of economic growth in Russia based on up-to-date scientific advances, which would be adopted by the legislative body – the Federal Assembly of the Russian Federation. Under crisis conditions marked by international tensions, public authorities must carry out new socio-economic reforms in the Russian Federation in a consistent and prudent manner with a greater participation of competent professionals and scientific community. This is necessary since in the context of new challenges and solutions, economic growth and improved human welfare are directly and indirectly related to the public authorities’ effective action and individual economic freedom security.
