Constitutional and Legal foundations of Russia's Economic System in the 20th and Early 21st Centuries (Concerning the 2020 Constitutional Reform)
This article examines the constitutional-legal foundations of Russia’s economic system in the 20th and early 21st centuries in connection with the 2020 constitutional reform. It reveals a recurring pattern whereby practically every Russian Constitution (whether Soviet or bourgeois) has re- flected essential changes of the forms of property ownership, modes of pro- duction, distribution, exchange and consumption of material goods and the social class structure of society. The 2020 reform of separate articles, without a fundamental change of the 1993 Constitution of the RF, reflects this pattern and seeks to elaborate the constitutional-legal principles of economic system in the current legislation and legal practice. The novelty of the approach is that it purports to reveal the objective regularities of the constitutional-legal reforms of Russia’s economic system.
