The scheme of the supreme power in the Russian Federation. The system of public authorities in the Russian Federation

As mentioned in Lecture No. 2, the highest and most developed form of political power is state power.

State power is a relationship of domination and subordination associated with management, coordination of volitional actions of people, based on organizing influence and the possibility of coercion by the state.

Since state power is a type of social power, it is intended to subordinate to its own will those subject to the purpose of managing society, creating organization and order in it.

Signs of state power:

1. Public character... It applies to society as a whole, to all its members, all groups and organizations of people. This feature does not distinguish state power from the potestar power of primitive society, but differentiates it from other types of social power: family, religious, corporate, mafia, etc.

2. Political character... Politics is the art of managing a socially heterogeneous society, divided into groups, classes, castes, strata, etc., and state power functions precisely in such a society. State power should be considered a kind of political, and not identified with them, since there are other types of political power - the power of political parties, lobbying groups, clientele, etc.).

3. Territoriality. It operates within a certain territory, nationwide within the territory of the entire state, regional within a subject of the federation, etc.

4. Sovereignty. It is expressed in the supremacy within the country and independence from outside. The supremacy is expressed in the ability to recognize the manifestation of any other power (religious, clan, trade union, criminal, etc.) as insignificant and in the fact that it applies to all subjects in the territory.

Independence is manifested in the independence of decision-making in the international arena on all issues, based on international treaties and principles of international law and (good-neighborliness, recognition of territorial integrity, and others).

5. Legality and legitimacy. Legality is the foundation of state power on domestic legislation and generally recognized principles and norms of international law (the latter for modern states). Legitimacy expresses the psychological, value, moral characteristics of state power, entailing confidence in it on the part of the population and a willingness to obey it.

It is carried out using various means and methods: authority, customs, traditions, religion, ideology, propaganda, information, encouragement, incentives, recommendations, etc. Among them there are special means, which only state power possesses: a) the mechanism of the state, consisting of governing and coercive bodies, and a detachment of officials professionally involved in management; b) the norms of positive law. TO special methods includes state coercion, including direct violence and suppression. The state has a monopoly on the exercise of coercion.

The structure of state power.This is a question about the internal structure, the elements of which it consists. State power, like any social power (see lecture No. 2) is considered statically and dynamically. State power structure in static represented by two elements: will and strength. Will defines the essence of powerbecause power is always a manifestation of someone's will. The dominant subject can be an individual, a group of people, a social class, a people, etc.

Dominion involves imposing will on the one hand and submission on the other. Whose will is the state exercising? Ideally, the state should express and implement the will of the entire people, as well as the will of classes and social groups. The expression of will in real states depends on their essence, goals, social orientation of power, socio-political and international situation and other factors.

Force, the second element of power, implements the will. Without power, the will cannot be embodied, affect the behavior and activities of people. The power of state power is embodied in state machinery: at governing bodies (parliaments, governments, ministries, courts, prosecutors), in enforcement authorities (army, police, internal troops, prisons, etc.), as well as in enterprises, institutions and organizations of the public sectorwho create a material and financial base for state bodies, train personnel for it, etc. If the authority of the governing bodies is not enough to confirm the state will, the bodies of state coercion come into action.

State power structure in dynamics consists of subject, object, power relations, means and methodsexercise of power.

Subjects state power - those who are the bearer, to whom the state power belongs, from whom the power impulse emanates. These are people, social groups, population strata, elites, national communities. But on behalf of the listed subjects they act, their will is expressed, as a rule, by the state and its bodies.

Objects state power - subject to whom the impulse of power is directed from the ruling subjects. These are individuals, their associations, strata and classes, social and national communities of society as a whole. They can also be submitted by government agencies. Subjects and objects of state power do not coincide, coincidence is possible when exercising democracy in direct forms (referendums, elections).

Power relation arisesbetween the ruling and the subject, its content is the manifestation and imposition of the will on the part of the ruling subject and the subordination of the will of the subject to it. Submission can be voluntary or compulsory. The will of a state-powerful subject is usually clothed in the form of positive law (laws and regulations), where certain behavior is prescribed to the subject in the form of legal norms.

Means of implementation state power is what it relies on, by means of which it is carried out, put into practice. Characterizing the signs of state power, it has already been noted that state power has at its disposal specific meansthat other powerful subjects do not possess: a) the mechanism of the state, consisting of governing and coercion bodies and a detachment of officials professionally involved in management; b) the norms of positive law.

At the same time, the state mechanism includes enterprises, institutions and organizations of the public sectorwho create a material and financial base for state bodies, train personnel for it. At the same time, the state power can use non-state associations, organizations, movements, mass media, as well as social norms, not only legal, but also moral, religious, political, customs, traditions, etc.

Methods of exercising state power.Methods, ways of imposing will depend on the coincidence of interests and will of the subject and the object of state power. In case of coincidence of will, the method of information support, recommendations is applied. In the event of a discrepancy, clarification, persuasion, agreement, stimulation, encouragement are applied. When the will of the subjects is opposed to the point of irreconcilability, state coercion is applied. Compulsionattraction of the subject, against his will, to perform any actions or to undergo any actions in relation to him from other subjects.

State coercion is the mental, material or physical influence of state bodies and state officials vested with power in order to impose their will and force them to act in accordance with it, as well as in the interests of the state and society as a whole... This is a kind of effective influence based on the use of political, economic, physical and other means of pressure on the subject (intimidation, threat of force, violence itself). In modern society, open violence is replaced by latent (hidden) forms - manipulation of information, consciousness. State coercion is carried out in two forms: legal and non-legal. Illegal form coercion is fraught with arbitrariness of officials and the state as a whole, is characteristic of anti-democratic (authoritarian, totalitarian, despotic) regimes. Law enforcement based on legal norms, which formally enshrine the type and measure of coercion by the state, as well as special procedures in which coercion is carried out. Such coercion can be appealed against to independent judicial authorities if it was illegal, unreasonable, unjust. There are many types of legal coercion: preventive measures (prevention), measures of restraint (detention, drive), protection measures (restoration of violated rights), security measures (examination of passengers and luggage, requisition), etc.

Any state traditionally applies the method of persuasion, which is also used by all other subjects ruling in society, i.e. this method is not special. Persuasion is a method of actively influencing the consciousness and will of people through ideas, values, knowledge, information, with the aim of forming views, beliefs, attitudes, based on understanding the essence and goals of state power... The method of persuasion does not have many side effects of the method of coercion, and its importance for state power increases with the growth of the political culture of society.

The structure of state power can be considered from the point of view of the principle of separation of powers, when it is distinguished legislative, executive, judicial branchesauthorities (according to the constitutions of various states and other branches, for example, presidential, constituent, electoral, municipal etc.).

From the point of view of the territory to which state power extends, there are federal (central) state power, regional state power exercised on the territory of a constituent entity of the federation, local power, the action of which is limited to an administrative-territorial entity. It should be remembered that according to the Constitution of the Russian Federation, local self-government bodies are not state bodies, they exercise local self-government on the territory of the municipality. However, state power can exercise power over a given territory directly through state bodies or their local representatives, or use local self-government bodies. In this case, the latter do not change their nature and do not become state ones.

... Dear participants, guests and organizers of the All-Russian Scientific and Practical Congress "Integrated socio-economic development of rural areas and small settlements - the basis of Russia's national security"!

On behalf of the State Duma Committee on Education and Science, I am glad to welcome all the participants, guests and organizers of the All-Russian Congress "Selo-RF".

An important place in this program, as well as in the development of Russian education in general, is played by measures to develop the education system in rural areas. Institutions of general and secondary vocational education have become system-forming elements in the life of large and small rural settlements, not only educational, but also socio-cultural development centers.

The preservation and development of the education system in rural areas has become a driver of the infrastructural development of rural areas - communication systems and organization of Internet access, the development of the road network to ensure the School Bus program, the revival of physical culture and sports complexes at educational organizations that can simultaneously meet the needs of citizens, living in rural areas.

I wish the participants of the All-Russian Congress, representing different regions of Russia, representatives of various authorities, productive work on developing solutions for the further development of rural areas and creating conditions for obtaining a quality education for all residents of rural settlements ...

Yours faithfully, Chairman of the Committee on Education and Science of the State Duma of the Russian Federation V.A. Nikonov

The words "system" and "structure" are similar in meaning, but they must be distinguished. If a system means a set of elements in links, their interaction, then structure means their arrangement.

Government agency - this is a legally formalized, organizationally separate, part of the system of public authorities, acting in accordance with the procedure established by the state, endowed with state-power powers and the necessary material resources to carry out the tasks and functions assigned by the state.

The totality of the bodies of the Russian state, interconnected and interacting with each other in the exercise of state power, forms system of public authorities of the Russian Federation... In connection with the federal state structure of Russia, this system includes the bodies of state power of the Russian Federation and the bodies of state power of the subjects of the Federation.

Let's dwell on the system and structure of federal bodies . State power in Russia is exercised on the basis of constitutional separation of powers... In accordance with this, the system of government bodies of the Russian Federation consists of legislative, executive and judicial bodies (Article 10 of the Constitution of the Russian Federation).

The head of state is President of Russia, elected by popular vote for a period of 6 years (until December 31, 2008 - for 4 years). According to the current Constitution, he has a number of important powers: he directs foreign policy, is the Supreme Commander of the Armed Forces, appoints the Chairman of the Government with the consent of the State Duma, and decides on the resignation of the Government. On the proposal of the Prime Minister, appoints and dismisses Deputy Prime Ministers and Federal Ministers. The President heads the Security Council, appoints and dismisses the command of the Armed Forces. Has the right to propose candidates for the position of Chairman of the Central Bank for consideration by the State Duma. In the event of aggression or an imminent threat of aggression, the President has the right to declare martial law throughout the country or in certain territories, but at the same time is obliged to immediately notify the Federal Assembly of his decision. Has the right to issue decrees that are binding on the entire territory of Russia (decrees must not contradict federal laws). It also has a number of other powers. The President may be removed from office by the Federation Council, provided that the State Duma charges high treason or another grave crime and has a positive opinion from the Supreme and Constitutional Courts.

Legislature is carried out by the Federal Assembly - a parliament consisting of the upper (Federation Council) and lower (State Duma) chambers. The Federation Council includes two representatives from each constituent entity of the federation (there are 83 constituent entities in the Russian Federation, hence 166 members of the Federation Council). In 1993, the members of the Federation Council were elected by the population, in 1995 their place was taken directly by the governors (presidents) and speakers of regional legislative assemblies, and since 2000 - by appointed and elected representatives of the executive and legislative bodies of the federal subjects, respectively. In the future, it is planned to introduce amendments to the Constitution and move to the staffing of the Federation Council from among the persons elected by representative bodies of power and deputies of local self-government. The Federation Council has no established term for its legislature. The State Duma consists of 450 deputies elected by popular vote according to party lists for a period of 5 years (until December 31, 2008 - for 4 years). The Federal Assembly is a single parliamentary body, but this does not mean that its chambers act jointly in all cases. On the contrary, the Constitution of the Russian Federation establishes that the Federation Council and the State Duma meet separately. Chambers can meet together only in three cases established by the Constitution of the Russian Federation: - to hear messages from the President of the Russian Federation; - to hear messages from the Constitutional Court of the Russian Federation; - to hear speeches by heads of foreign states.

According to Article 102 of the Constitution of the Russian Federation, the jurisdiction Federation Council include: - the approval of the change in the boundaries between the constituent entities of the Russian Federation; - the appointment of the election of the President of the Russian Federation; - the removal of the President of the Russian Federation from office by way of impeachment after the State Duma has brought the appropriate accusation (a two-thirds majority of the chamber is required to make a decision); - appointment to the position of judges of the Constitutional Court of the Russian Federation, the Supreme Court of the Russian Federation, the Supreme Arbitration Court of the Russian Federation (appointments are made on the proposal of the President of the Russian Federation); - appointment and dismissal of the Prosecutor General of the Russian Federation (also carried out on the proposal of the President); - appointment to position and dismissal of the Deputy Chairman of the Accounts Chamber and half of its auditors. When considering laws adopted by the State Duma, the Federation Council does not have the right to amend, but can either approve or reject the law as a whole.

A federal law is considered approved by the Federation Council if more than half of the total number of members of this chamber voted for it, or if it has not been considered by the Federation Council within fourteen days. If a federal law is rejected by the Federation Council, the chambers may create a conciliation commission to overcome the differences that have arisen, after which the federal law is subject to reconsideration by the State Duma. If the State Duma disagrees with the decision of the Federation Council, the federal law shall be considered adopted if, during the repeated voting, at least two-thirds of the total number of State Duma deputies voted for it. For the adoption of federal constitutional laws, the approval of three quarters of the votes of the Federation Council is required; in the event that the Federation Council rejects the draft federal constitutional law, the veto cannot be overcome by the State Duma.

Legal status State Duma defined in the fifth chapter of the Constitution of the Russian Federation. A citizen of the Russian Federation who has reached the age of 21 and has the right to participate in elections can be elected as a deputy of the State Duma (moreover, the same person cannot simultaneously be a deputy of the State Duma and a member of the Federation Council) (Article 97 of the Constitution of the Russian Federation). Since 2007, deputies of the State Duma have been elected according to a proportional system (according to party lists). Since 2005, the passing barrier has been raised to 7%. The new rules were established specifically in order to cut off obviously impassable parties and unwanted candidates to the State Duma. Previously, Russia had a mixed electoral system, since half of the total number of deputies was also elected according to the majority system (in single-mandate constituencies).

Elections to the State Duma were held in 1993, 1995, 1999, 2003 and 2007.

The work of the Duma is headed by the Chairman of the Duma and his deputies, while each faction or deputy group may nominate a deputy chairman of the State Duma. The work of the deputies is carried out within the framework of the committees and commissions of the State Duma.

The Constitution of the Russian Federation (Article 103) defines the following powers of the State Duma and gives the right to issue resolutions on them: - giving consent to the President of the Russian Federation for the appointment of the Chairman of the Government of the Russian Federation; - hearing the annual reports of the Government of the Russian Federation on the results of its activities, including on issues related to set by the State Duma; - resolution of the issue of confidence in the Government of the Russian Federation; - appointment and dismissal of the chairman of the Central Bank of Russia; - appointment and dismissal of the chairman of the Accounts Chamber of the Russian Federation and half of its auditors; - appointment to office and dismissal of the Commissioner for Human Rights, acting in accordance with federal constitutional law; - announcement of amnesty; - bringing charges against the President of the Russian Federation for his removal from office. The State Duma adopts federal laws by a majority of votes of the total number of deputies, unless otherwise provided by the Constitution of the Russian Federation. Under the adopted federal law within the meaning of Part 1 of Art. 107 of the Constitution of the Russian Federation means: laws adopted by the State Duma and approved by the Federation Council in accordance with Part No. 1, 2, 3 and 4 st. 105 of the Constitution of the Russian Federation; laws re-adopted by the State Duma in accordance with Part 5 of Art.

105 of the Constitution of the Russian Federation; laws approved by the State Duma and the Federation Council in accordance with Part 3 of Art. 107 of the Constitution of the Russian Federation. In addition, the adopted federal law is signed and promulgated by the President of the Russian Federation.

The dissolution of the State Duma can occur by decree of the President of Russia if it rejected three times the candidates for the post of Prime Minister presented by him or expressed no confidence in the Government again within three months. However, the Duma cannot be dissolved in the first year of its work. In cases of dissolution of the State Duma, the president sets the date of elections so that the newly elected Duma meets no later than four months after its dissolution.

The President of the Russian Federation does not have the right to dissolve the State Duma on this basis during the last six months of his powers, during the period of martial law or a state of emergency throughout the state, as well as in the event the State Duma initiates a procedure for removing the President from office by way of impeachment. The Prime Minister and federal ministers are appointed and dismissed by the President of the Russian Federation on the proposal of the Prime Minister.

The system and structure of the executive authorities of the Russian Federation

It should be remembered that the words “ system" and " structure" are similar in meaning, but they must be distinguished. If system means a set of elements in bonds, then structure - their location.
The Constitution of the Russian Federation (part 2 of article 77) establishes that within the jurisdiction of the Russian Federation and its powers in matters of joint jurisdiction of the Russian Federation and its subjects, federal executive agencies and executive agencies constituent entities of the Russian Federation form a single executive power system In Russian federation.

United system presupposes a certain vertical connection and denotes nothing more than a set of various management subjects subordinate to the corresponding center. Moreover, in accordance with Art. 78 federal executive agencies to exercise their powers may create their own territorial organs. The existing normative acts (decrees of the President of the Russian Federation and other normative legal acts) presuppose the presence of an integral systems federal (for example, federal ministries, federal services, federal agencies, state committees).
In the constituent entities of the Russian Federation executive branch in accordance with the Federal Law "On General Principles organization legislative (representative) and executive bodiesstate authorities subjects of the Russian Federation "is established system of executive bodies led by higher executive body state authorities subject of the Federation, headed by the head of the highest executive body state authoritiessubject of the Russian Federation. Higher executive agency state authorities the subject of the Russian Federation ensures the implementation of the Constitution of the Russian Federation, federal laws and other regulatory legal acts of the Russian Federation, the constitution (charter), laws and other
regulatory legal acts of the constituent entity of the Russian Federation. Higher name executive body state authorities subject of the Russian Federation, its structure, the procedure for its formation is established by the constitution (charter) and the laws of the subject of the Russian Federation. Higher executive authority constituent entity of the Russian Federation forms other executive agenciessubject of the Russian Federation.
Among administrative scientists, there is currently no consensus about which subjects executive power are included in its system. Typically in system federal executive authorities include the Government of the Russian Federation, federal ministries and departments. By Decree of the President of the Russian Federation of March 9, 2004 No. 314 in system federal executive authorities includes federal ministries, federal services and federal agencies, as well as government committees that appeared in September 2007.
AT system of executive authorities subjects of the Russian Federation include the highest executive authoritysubject of the Russian Federation, other executive agencies subject of the Russian Federation. Opinions were divided regarding the President of the Russian Federation: most scientists do not classify him as executive power, some believe that it is a "special subject of the Russian Federation". The system of subjects executive power in the Russian Federation can be represented as follows:

President of the Russian Federation (together with his staff - the Administration of the President of the Russian Federation);
Government of the Russian Federation;
federal executive agencies (federal ministries, federal services, federal agencies, state committees) together with their territorial bodies;
Plenipotentiary representatives of the President of the Russian Federation in federal districts;

chapters executive power subjects of the Russian Federation (presidents, heads of administrations);
governments of the constituent entities of the Russian Federation;
others executive agencies subjects of the Russian Federation;
heads of municipalities and organs local government (exclusively in terms of powers vested in state executive authorities).
Under the term " structure" (from Lat. structura - structure, location, order) means structure, internal structure. In jurisprudence, as a rule, this concept is used to determine the internal structure of any organ, its location in organ system. It is also used to determine the overall staffing table. organ, at its name, establishing it structuraldivisions, determining the wages of employees. In other words, under the structure of the executive authority understands the structure and internal form system organization, serving as a unity of stable relationships between its elements. Two components are distinguished in it - structure, a set of elements and system relationship between them.
Everyone has organ management, including certain structures predetermines effective activity executive authorities, distribution of powers, tasks, functions and responsibility for the results of management work.
Organizational is provided by the development and approval of their staffing table, which is a list structural units organ (with their names), positions and their number, official salaries.

The procedure for drawing up and approving staffing tables organs management is controlled by higher executive authorities.

The provisions on federal executive authorities the terms “typical structures ", "Typical staffs", "staffing standards" organs, departments, organizations,subordinate to the relevant federal ministry or directly to the Government of the Russian Federation.
Typical structure is a document establishing a list of required organ or organizing structural units with an indication of their names (in some cases, with an indication of their main tasks and functions).
Model states are an act that includes regulations that define:
the number of civil servants, other employees and employees structural units bodies, organizations, enterprises and institutions;

the quantitative ratio of various groups of persons performing the powers and functions of the corresponding organization (managers, officials, executors, other employees and employees);
quantitative ratio of management personnel and real volume of activity organ or organizations.
The staffing standard is a document that establishes the maximum number of persons engaged in the implementation of functions and powers of the relevant organs and organizations.
From organizational structure depends on the specialization and concretization of management, its complexity, the correct distribution of the load between the various parts. Rational structure allows to solve problems with less time and effort and more skillfully, creates conditions for coordinated and precise work.
Generally, structures controls have many features that can be used as criteria for their grouping.

It is customary to distinguish structures simple and complex, linear and functional, constants and variables, typical and
individual, formal and informal, established and experimental, centralized and decentralized.
Analyzing structure federal executive authorities, it can be stated that it is based on both industry and functional principles. So, in 1993 there were 22 ministries, 11 state committees, 22 committees, 16 federal services, agencies, and oversight. AT structurefederal executive authorities, approved on August 14, 1996. - 24 ministries, 19 state committees, 18 federal services, 3 agencies and 2 federal oversight. In 2000. - 24 ministries, 6 state committees, 2 federal commissions, 13 federal services, 8 agencies, 2 federal supervision, other organs - 3. And, finally, at present (March 2008) - 16 federal ministries, 35 federal services (including 10, which are directly managed by the Government of the Russian Federation), 33 federal agencies (including 5, headed by the Government of the Russian Federation) and recently created 2 state committees also directly subordinate to the Government of the Russian Federation (see appendix).
System and executive structure not yet fully formed. They are to be improved at the federal level and the search for forms of creation systems territorial organsfederal ministries, departments in the regions.

21) Legal regime, content and objectives of administrative reform

Administrative reform is not a one-time event, but an ongoing process. The next requirement from this is to avoid general abstract programs and set clear measurable objectives.

Modernizing public administration means making it simpler, clearer, more efficient, trying to achieve transparency in public spending and clearly defining the responsibilities of each of the many operators of public administration.

By the Decree of the President of the Russian Federation of July 23, 2003 No. 824 "On measures to carry out the administrative reform in 2003-2004", the priority directions of the administrative reform were determined:

  • limiting state interference in the economic activities of business entities, including the termination of excessive government regulation;
  • elimination of duplication of functions and powers of federal executive bodies;
  • development of a system of self-regulatory organizations in the field of economics;
  • organizational separation of the functions of regulation of economic activity, supervision and control, management of state property and the provision of services by state organizations to citizens and legal entities;
  • completion of the process of delineation of powers between federal executive authorities and executive authorities of the constituent entities of the Russian Federation, optimization of the activities of territorial bodies of federal executive authorities.

The solution of these tasks was entrusted to the Government Commission for the Implementation of Administrative Reform, formed by the Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation of July 31, 2003 No. 451.

As a result of the implementation of the initial stage of the administrative reform, the necessary prerequisites were created for further comprehensive modernization of the public administration system.

Under administrative reform understands, at first glance, similar and interrelated, but still different transformations in certain areas of public administration.

There are at least a few typical ideas about the content of the administrative reform:

  1. modernization of state power, including the reform of the legislative, executive and judicial branches;
  2. reform of the administrative-territorial structure of the state;
  3. differentiation of powers and subjects of jurisdiction between federal, regional and municipal authorities;
  4. civil service reform;
  5. reform of the functions and structure of the executive branch.

The first two directions are not included in the content of the administrative reform. They are not aimed at a radical revision of the functions of the executive, legislative and judicial authorities and relate, in particular, to the improvement of procedures for the implementation of the existing functions of the judiciary, to bring the judicial system in line with them, and for the legislative branch they are more connected with a change in the procedure for the formation of representative bodies of power. - election of members of the Federation Council or the formation of the State Duma and regional representative bodies of power according to a mixed (proportional and majority) principle.

The change in the administrative-territorial structure, which at this stage is mainly associated with the unification of the constituent entities of the Russian Federation, does not affect the powers of the state authorities of the constituent entities of the Russian Federation as such, but only leads to the consolidation of the functions carried out by the executive authorities of the two regions to the executive authorities of the united constituent entity of the Russian Federation.

The remaining three directions constitute administrative reform in a broad sense.

The main content of the delineation of powers and subjects of jurisdiction between federal, regional and municipal authorities is the assignment of clear functions to each level of government, provided with financial resources, based on the principle of subsidiarity, i.e., the assignment of functions to the minimum necessary level of power. One of the main problems of this part of the reform, which is important for the success of the administrative reform as a whole, is that it is derived from the definition of functions that remain with the state and the executive branch at all levels. Therefore, the delimitation of powers between federal, regional and municipal authorities made by law cannot be regarded as final, and it will be revised after the necessary functions of the state have been determined.

Civil service reform consists in revising the status of civil servants and the procedure for performing public service in order to make the state a competitive employer, and civil servants - effective executors of state functions - this is its main significance for administrative reform.

The reform of the functions and structure of the executive branch is an administrative reform in the true sense of the word.

It consists of two parts: operational and institutional.

The operational component consists in rejecting redundant functions, improving the procedure for implementing the necessary state functions, building a system and structure of executive power that corresponds to new functions, excluding a conflict of interests between them.

The institutional part of the reform consists in creating mechanisms to prevent the emergence of new redundant functions, consolidating procedures for performing the necessary functions, ensuring information transparency of the authorities, and consolidating quality standards for the provision of public services.

In this way, administrative reform in a narrow sense can be defined as a process of revising the functions of the executive branch, consolidating the necessary and abolishing redundant functions, creating an adequate structure and system of executive power, as well as institutional changes in the system of public administration. The purpose is the creation of a system for the effective execution of state functions, ensuring high rates of economic growth and social development.

Let's consider in more detail the main components of the reform.

The structure of public authorities in the Russian Federation

Taken together, the state bodies of the Russian Federation form a single system. According to the Constitution of the Russian Federation (Art.

11), it includes government bodies of the Federation and government bodies of its constituent entities. The unity of the system of state bodies of the Russian Federation is due to the fact that this system is based on the state integrity of the Russian Federation, on the unity of the system of state power. The unity of the system is manifested in the delimitation of the subjects of jurisdiction and powers between the state authorities of the Russian Federation and the state authorities of its subjects. The RF Constitution (Articles 10, 11) provides for the presence of presidential, legislative, executive and judicial authorities. Each of these types of bodies is actually a subsystem of the unified system of state bodies of the Russian Federation.

1. The President of the Russian Federation is the head of state. He acts as a guarantor of the Constitution of the Russian Federation, human and civil rights and freedoms. President, according to Art. 80 of the Constitution, ensures the coordinated functioning and interaction of public authorities, carries out general management of the activities of the Government and other parts of the executive branch, with whose bodies he is most closely connected.

2. Bodies of legislative power are the Federal Assembly of the Russian Federation, people's assemblies, state assemblies, supreme councils, legislative assemblies of the republics within the Russian Federation; dumas, legislative assemblies, regional assemblies and other legislative bodies of power of territories, regions, cities of federal significance, an autonomous region and autonomous districts. The main feature of these bodies is that they are directly elected by the people and cannot be formed in any other way. Taken together, they constitute a system of representative bodies of state power of the Russian Federation. The legislative bodies are divided into federal and regional (subjects of the Federation).

3. The executive authorities include the Government of the Russian Federation, other federal executive authorities - ministries, state committees and departments under the Government of the Russian Federation, executive authorities of the constituent entities of the Russian Federation - presidents and heads of administrations of the constituent entities of the Russian Federation, their governments, ministries, state committees and other departments ... They constitute a unified system of executive bodies headed by the Government of the Russian Federation. It is characteristic of executive authorities that they are either formed (appointed) by the respective leaders of the executive branch - presidents or heads of administrations, or are elected directly by the population. The executive authorities carry out a special type of state activity, which is of an executive and administrative nature.

The executive authorities are divided into federal and subjects of the Federation.

4. The judicial authorities form the Constitutional Court of the Russian Federation, the Supreme Court of the Russian Federation, the Supreme Arbitration Court of the Russian Federation, other federal courts, as well as courts of the constituent entities of the Russian Federation. The judicial authorities together make up the judicial system of the Russian Federation. The main specific feature of these bodies is the exercise of judicial power through constitutional, civil, administrative and criminal proceedings.

5. A special group of state bodies, which does not belong to any of the previously named types of state power bodies, is formed by the prosecutor's office.

6. In addition to the aforementioned bodies, the system of state bodies of the Russian Federation also includes a number of other bodies performing auxiliary, advisory and other kinds of functions that are determined by the bodies of state power. These bodies include, for example, the Administration of the President of the Russian Federation and the Security Council of the Russian Federation, plenipotentiaries of the President of the Russian Federation.

In addition to the division by subject matter, the constitutional system of state bodies can be considered as a two-tier one, including federal state bodies and bodies of the subjects of the Federation. The system of local self-government bodies forms an independent set of bodies that do not belong to the number of government bodies.

Unlike the previously existing Constitutions of Russia of the Soviet period, the Constitution of the Russian Federation of 1993, while developing the ideas of federalism, does not strictly regulate the organizational activities of government bodies.

If in relation to the structure of representative and executive bodies of state power, the constituent entities of the Russian Federation have significant independence, then the system of judicial bodies of the constituent entities of the Russian Federation basically acts as a set of federal institutions (with the exception of constitutional, statutory courts of the constituent entities of the Russian Federation).

Therefore, paragraph "o" of Art. 71 of the Constitution of the Russian Federation, attaches the regulation of the judiciary to the exclusive competence of the federation. This applies equally to the prosecutor's office, the totality of whose organs forms a single centralized system subordinate to the Prosecutor General of the Russian Federation (Article 129 of the Constitution).

Local self-government is recognized and guaranteed in the Russian Federation. Local self-government is independent within the limits of its powers. Local government bodies are separated from the system of government bodies. Hence the variety of ways to form executive and representative bodies of local self-government.

1. President of the Russian Federation

The head of the Russian state is the President of the Russian Federation (Article 80 of the Constitution).

President of Russian Federation - the highest public office of the Russian Federation, as well as the person elected to this position. The President of Russia is the head of state. Many of the powers of the president are either directly executive or close to the executive branch. Along with this, according to some researchers, the president does not belong to any one branch of government, but rises above them, since he exercises coordinating functions and has the right to dissolve the State Duma.

The President of the Russian Federation is the guarantor of the Constitution of the Russian Federation, human and civil rights and freedoms. In accordance with the procedure established by the Constitution of the Russian Federation, he takes measures to protect the sovereignty of the Russian Federation, its independence and state integrity, and ensures the coordinated functioning and interaction of government bodies. In accordance with the Constitution of the Russian Federation and federal laws, he determines the main directions of the state's domestic and foreign policy. As head of state, he represents the Russian Federation within the country and in international relations.

The President is elected on the basis of universal, equal and direct suffrage by secret ballot. The same person cannot hold the office of President for more than two consecutive terms.

Initially (in 1991) the President of Russia was elected for 5 years. In the 1993 Constitution of the Russian Federation, the term of office of the President was reduced to 4 years. However, according to clause 3 of the Final and Transitional Provisions of the Constitution, the President exercised his powers until the expiration of the term for which he was elected. On the basis of amendments to the Constitution that entered into force on December 31, 2008, since the 2012 elections, he is elected for a six-year term.

Currently, the President of the Russian Federation is V.V.

2. Federal Assembly

The legislative and representative body of state power (parliament) of the Russian Federation is the Federal Assembly of the Russian Federation (Article 94 of the Constitution of the Russian Federation). It is a permanent body (Article 99 of the Constitution of the Russian Federation).

The Federal Assembly consists of two chambers: the upper chamber -

The Federation Council (full name is the Federation Council of the Federal Assembly of the Russian Federation) and the lower house is the State Duma (full name is the State Duma of the Federal Assembly of the Russian Federation).

In accordance with Part 2 of Article 95 of the Constitution of the Russian Federation, the Federation Council includes two representatives from each constituent entity of the Russian Federation: one from the representative and executive bodies of state power.

The total number of members of the Federation Council (senators) is 172. Two representatives from each constituent entity of Russia, of which there are 89. The number of members of the Federation Council has changed several times since 1993 due to the unification of existing and the formation of new constituent entities of the Federation.

The Federation Council is the “Chamber of Regions” representing the interests of the regions at the federal level and reflecting the federal nature of the Russian state. As an institution for the integration and consolidation of regions, the Federation Council ensures a balance of federal and regional interests when making decisions aimed at implementing the country's strategic development goals.

The Federation Council is formed and structured on a non-partisan basis. Members of the Federation Council do not create factions and party associations.

The Federation Council is a permanent body. Unlike the State Duma, the Federation Council cannot be dissolved by the President. Its meetings are held as needed, but at least twice a month. Sessions of the Federation Council are the main form of work of the chamber. They are held separately from meetings of the State Duma. The chambers may meet together to hear messages from the President of the Russian Federation, messages from the Constitutional Court of the Russian Federation, speeches by heads of foreign states. Members of the Federation Council exercise their powers on a permanent basis. Members of the Federation Council enjoy immunity throughout their term of office. They cannot be detained, arrested, searched, except in cases of detention on the spot, and also subjected to personal search, except in cases where it is provided by federal law to ensure the safety of other people.

The State Duma (the abbreviation is also used in the media State Duma) - the lower house of the Federal Assembly. Elected by adult citizens of Russia who have the right to vote in elections, based on the results of alternative and free elections held every five years. The legal status of the State Duma is defined in the fifth chapter of the Constitution of the Russian Federation.

The State Duma consists of 450 deputies, exactly half of whom are elected directly and in one round based on the results of voting in single-mandate constituencies. The second half is formed by the political parties of Russia, which have overcome the 5% barrier based on the results of voting for party lists. It was this scheme that operated in the elections to the Russian parliament in 1993-2003 and will operate again, starting in 2016. In 2007 and 2011, all 450 State Duma deputies were determined by the results of voting for party lists, and the passing threshold was 7%. A citizen of the Russian Federation who has reached the age of 21 and has the right to participate in elections can be elected a deputy of the State Duma (moreover, the same person cannot simultaneously be a deputy of the State Duma and a member of the Federation Council). A deputy of the State Duma of the first convocation could simultaneously be a member of the Government of the Russian Federation (in accordance with the transitional provisions of the Constitution of the Russian Federation).

The Federation Council and the State Duma meet separately, but they can meet together to hear messages from the President of the Russian Federation, messages from the Constitutional Court of the Russian Federation, speeches by heads of foreign states.

The powers of the chambers of the Russian parliament are described in Art. Art. 94-109 of the Constitution of Russia 1993.

The procedure for the formation of the Federation Council and the procedure for the election of deputies to the State Duma are established by federal laws. Since the adoption of the constitution, they have changed several times.

Federal laws are adopted by the State Duma, approved by the Federation Council and signed by the President. The State Duma can overcome the veto of the Federation Council by re-adopting the law with a two-thirds majority. The president's veto can be overcome only if the law is re-adopted by both the Federation Council and the Duma, by a 2/3 majority of the total number of members of both chambers.

A federal constitutional law is considered adopted if it is approved by a majority of at least three quarters of votes of the total number of members of the Federation Council and at least two thirds of votes of the total number of deputies of the State Duma. The adopted federal constitutional law is subject to signing by the President of the Russian Federation and promulgation within fourteen days.

3. Government of the Russian Federation

The executive power is exercised by the Government of the Russian Federation. The Prime Minister is appointed by the President with the consent of the State Duma. In the event of a threefold rejection by the State Duma of the candidacy of the Chairman of the Government, or in the event of a vote of no confidence in the Government by the Duma. The President has the right to dissolve the State Duma. The Government includes, in addition to the Chairman, his deputies (“deputy prime ministers”) and federal ministers. The government heads the system of federal executive bodies: ministries, federal services and federal agencies.

4. The judicial system of the Russian Federation

Judicial power in the Russian Federation:

· It is carried out only by courts in the person of judges and jurors involved in the procedure established by law in the administration of justice. No other bodies and persons have the right to take upon themselves the administration of justice;

· Is independent and acts independently of the legislative and executive powers;

· Carried out through constitutional, civil, administrative and criminal proceedings.

The judicial system of the Russian Federation is established by the Constitution of the Russian Federation and the Federal Constitutional Law “On the Judicial System of the Russian Federation”.

The unity of the judicial system of the Russian Federation is ensured by:

· The establishment of the judicial system of the Russian Federation by the Constitution of the Russian Federation and the Federal Constitutional Law "On the judicial system of the Russian Federation";

· Observance by all federal courts and justices of the peace of the rules of legal proceedings established by federal laws;

· Application by all courts of the Constitution of the Russian Federation, federal constitutional laws, federal laws, generally recognized principles and norms of international law and international treaties of the Russian Federation, as well as constitutions (charters) and other laws of the constituent entities of the Russian Federation;

· Recognition of the obligation to comply with court decisions that have entered into legal force throughout the territory of the Russian Federation;

· Legislative consolidation of the unity of the status of judges;

· Financing of federal courts and justices of the peace from the federal budget.

The highest judicial bodies in Russia are the Constitutional Court and the Supreme Court. Judges of higher courts are appointed by the Federation Council on the proposal of the President of the Russian Federation. The Supreme Court of the Russian Federation is the highest judicial body for civil cases, resolution of economic disputes, criminal, administrative and other cases, jurisdictional courts established in accordance with federal constitutional law, exercises judicial supervision over the activities of these courts in the procedural forms provided for by federal law and provides explanations on issues of judicial practice. The supreme and subordinate courts constitute the system of federal courts. The constituent entities of the Federation have their own constitutional or statutory courts that are not part of the federal system. The newly introduced justices of the peace are also not considered federal judges.

The chapter of the Constitution on the judiciary also mentions the Prosecutor's Office of the Russian Federation. However, the Prosecutor's Office is not part of the judicial system and is independent from all branches of government. The system of the Prosecutor's Office is headed by the General Prosecutor's Office of the Russian Federation headed by the General Prosecutor. He is appointed to office by the Federation Council on the proposal of the President.

On November 21, 2013, the State Duma adopted a bill on the merger of the Supreme Arbitration Court of the Russian Federation with the Supreme Court of the Russian Federation. On February 6, 2014, the law on the consolidation of courts approved by the constituent entities of the Russian Federation was signed by the President of the Russian Federation Vladimir Putin.

5. State authorities in the constituent entities of the Russian Federation

Chapter 8 of the Constitution determines that local self-government in the Russian Federation ensures the independent solution by the population of issues of local importance, the ownership, use and disposal of municipal property. It is carried out by citizens through a referendum, elections, other forms of direct expression of will, through elective and other bodies of local self-government (Art. 130).

Municipality - a self-governing administrative-territorial unit with a clearly defined territory and population living in this territory (usually a group of settlements, city, town or village).

Local self-government bodies independently manage municipal property, form, approve and execute the local budget, establish local taxes and fees, maintain public order, and also resolve other issues of local importance. They can be endowed by law with separate state powers with the transfer of material and financial resources necessary for their implementation. In this case, the implementation of the transferred powers is controlled by the state (Article 132 of the Constitution of Russia).

All the best! Today the next step is to analyze the topic "Authorities in the Russian Federation". The topic is complex, you need to know not only the names of the organs, but also how they actually function. Without such knowledge, there is simply nothing to do on any exam. So go ahead.

To begin with, let me remind you that we live in the state of Russia, it is clear that it arose a very long time ago - around the 9th century AD ... Here is the US state. It arose quite recently by the standards of Russia. However, any state has common features.

And the first most important sign - the apparatus of power - these are the bodies of power. Without them it is impossible to imagine any state. How were they formed? Well, there are tons of theories. So, there is a theological theory (authors Augustine the Blessed and Thomas Aquinas), which says that any power is from God in order to curb the vices of people through laws. There are other theories as well. Personally, class theory is close to me. I talked about her.

Today we will deal with the apparatus of power.What is the structure of government bodies in the Russian Federation? Here's a diagram:

Let's see what's what here. Firstly, all the authorities of the Russian Federation are divided according to the branches of government: into legislative (which adopts laws), executive (you will not believe it, executes laws so that they act) and judicial (judges).

Legislative power is represented by parliament - which in Russia we call the Federal Assembly. It is he who makes the laws. Who can propose bills? Answer:

The people can only elect the State Duma and the President. He cannot propose bills. First, the bill goes to the lower house of Parliament - the State Duma. There are three readings, if it passes, then it goes to the Federation Council, and if it fits, then it is signed by the President. The President of the Russian Federation can send the law for revision. If he does this more than 3 times, the State Duma can announce a vote of no confidence in him, and in general everything will be bad ... This is how the federal legislative bodies of power in the Russian Federation function.

The President appoints the Prime Minister. The government DOES NOT pass laws, it FULFILLS them. For example, the Parliament adopted the law "On raising the minimum wage to 20,000 rubles" (for example, today it is 4600, and the minimum living wage is 7,500). The government must fulfill it, that is, the Minister of Finance must do what he wants to do, but find the money! And to ensure that the law is carried out! This is how the executive authorities in Russia function.

It is clear that the judiciary is needed in order to judge. Also, the judiciary, represented by the Constitutional Court, verifies the content of the adopted and current laws with the Constitution - the country's fundamental law - so that they do not contradict it. The Supreme Court of the Russian Federation is the highest court for most court cases. The Supreme Arbitration Court - decides cases related to the economic and financial sphere.

What place does the President occupy in the structure of the bodies of state power of the Russian Federation? The President of the Russian Federation does NOT belong to any branch of government, but stands above them, coordinating their functioning! This, dear applicants, is extremely important to understand and remember! There are a lot of tasks on this principle in the USE tests in social studies! Something like this! 🙂

Further, Russia has a republican form of power. This means that the highest authorities in the Russian Federation are chosen by the Russian multinational sovereign (independent) people - that is, you and I, dear friends (see illustration).

The people elect the President and the State Duma (blue arrows). In theory, he still has to elect governors, local parliaments and mayors of cities! In Perm, unfortunately, the people have been barred from electing the mayor and governor. But if they were elected - they probably would have been more diligent - they would have to keep their promises, otherwise they will not be elected anymore! 🙂

White arrows show those authorities that are appointed by the President of the Russian Federation. Everything is eerily simple!

Further, Russia is a federal state (federation). What does this mean. There are two forms of government - unitary and federal. Under the unitary state, all territories are subject to the central government and have no independence from the center, obediently carrying out its orders. With a federal type of state-territorial structure, there is a central (federal) power and a local one. The powers of these authorities are determined by the contract. In the Russian Federation, this is the 1992 Federal Treaty - a federal constitutional law.

Local authorities are obliged to comply with federal laws, but they can also adopt their own laws that do not contradict federal ones! Thus, according to the structure of the state authorities of the Russian Federation, local authorities duplicate federal ones: the governor plays the role of the president, each constituent entity of the Russian Federation has its own parliament (in Perm, this is the Legislative Assembly of the Perm Territory), and its own ministries.

It is important to understand that entire states that have their own President can also be members of the Federation. So there is the Republic of Bashkortostan, the Republic of Tatarstan, etc. However, these states in the state (Russia) do not have external independence. However, they have great autonomy within the state. There are other types of subjects of the Russian Federation: autonomous districts, regions, territories, etc. All these are subjects of the Russian Federation! This is the structure of the government bodies of the Russian Federation.

We will talk about political regimes in the next post - don't miss it and subscribe to new articles on the site!
