Introduction: the institution of marriage is the pillar of every society and state and forms their material, spiritual, psychological and even ideological basis. The state is inextricably linked with the family and marriage. Changing each of the elements of this interaction leads to the radical changes in the entire system, so the state must regulate these social institutions in a certain way. Modern Russia strives to achieve a reasonable balance of human rights and freedoms, develop a democratic society and work closely with the international community while preserving the established moral foundations and traditional values related to the institution of the family and marriage. The purpose of the publication is to determine the current state and prospective vectors of development of the state policy in relation to the institution of marriage. The research methodology is based on the use of the logical, dialectical techniques and methods of scientific knowledge, the comparative legal and legal-technical analysis of the texts of laws and other documents. Results: the paper analyzes the scientific literature, the Russian and foreign legislation, the international legal acts and decisions of the European Court of Human Rights in order to determine the efficiency of the state policy in this area, establish the criteria for achieving a sufficient balance between the non-interference of the state in the gender issues and maintaining the institution of traditional marriage in Russia. The conducted research of the issue suggests that in general, the legislation of the Russian Federation concerning the family and marriage relations is quite stable, but in response to the challenges of modern times, it is undergoing a certain reform. Conclusions: the practice of implementing the European Convention on Human Rights requires that the Russian legislation be seriously reformed in terms of regulating the gender issues and marital and family relations. In recent years, the Russian Federation has repeatedly lost cases in the European Court of Human Rights (ECHR), without being able to defend the fairness of its position. According to the authors of the publication, the solution to this problem is possible by reviewing certain international obligations of Russia in the context of their interpretation of the ECHR, as well as forming a consolidated position in Russian society regarding the institution of traditional marriage and the gender relations. These changes should be reflected in both the domestic legislation and the legalized law enforcement practices. The authors consider the achieved level of tolerance of Russian law regarding the institutions of the family and marriage to be extremely sufficient for the preservation and sustainable development of Russian society.

The existing legislation determines the education as "an integral and focused process of teaching and upbringing, which represents a socially important value and shall be implemented so as to meet the interests of the individual, the family, the society and the state". However, even in this part, the meaning of the notion ‘socially significant benefit is not specified and allows for a wide range of interpretation [2]. Yet the more inconcrete is the answer to the question – "who and how should determine the interests of the individual, the family and even the state?" The national doctrine of education in the Russian Federation, which determined the goals of teaching and upbringing, the ways to attain them by means of the state policy regulating the field of education, the target achievements of the development of the educational system for the period up to 2025, approved by the Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation of October 4, 2000 #751, was abrogated by the Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation of March 29, 2014 #245 [7]. The new doctrine has not been developed so far. The RAE Academician A.B. Khutorsky believes that the absence of the national doctrine of education presents a threat to national security and a violation of the right of citizens to quality education. Accordingly, the teacher has to solve the problem of achieving the harmony of interests of the individual, the family, the society and the government on their own, which, however, judging by the officially published results, is the task that exceeds the abilities of the participants of the educational process.  The particular concern about the results of the patriotic upbringing served as a basis for the legislative initiative of the RF President V. V. Putin, who introduced the project of an amendment to the Law of RF "About Education of the Russian Federation" to the State Duma in 2020, regarding the quality of patriotic upbringing [3]. Patriotism, considered by the President of RF V. V. Putin as the only possible idea to unite the nation is "THE FEELING OF LOVE OF THE MOTHERLAND" and the readiness for every sacrifice and heroic deed for the sake of the interests of your Motherland. However, the practicing educators experience shortfalls in efficient methodologies of patriotic upbringing, which should let them bring up citizens, loving their Motherland more than themselves. The article is dedicated to solution to this problem based on the Value-sense paradigm of upbringing educational dynasty of the Kurbatovs [15].

The subject of this article is the problems of the nature, essence and purpose of prosecutorial activity. The purpose of the article is to study and justify the role of the human rights function in prosecutorial activities in the concept of a modern legal state. At the heart of prosecutorial activity is the implementation of the main function of the Prosecutor’s office – its rights and freedoms, their protection. This means that any type (branch) of Prosecutor's supervision is permeated with human rights content in relation to a citizen, society, or the state. This is confirmed by the fact that the Federal law “On the Prosecutor's office of the Russian Federation” establishes an independent type of Prosecutor's supervision-supervision over the observance of human and civil rights and freedoms. It is argued that the legislation enshrines the human rights activities of the Prosecutor's office as its most important function. It is proposed to add this to the Law “On the Prosecutor's office of the Russian Federation”.

The paper is devoted to the examination of issues related to the increasing importance of budgetary regulation for the proper functioning of a modern innovative society. The key role of the budgetary regulation in the financial process of the State is particularly acute in the context of systemic crises that include socio-economic consequences caused by the spread of a new coronavirus infection (COVID-19) in Russia. In the course of the study, the features of changes in the state financial policy caused by the above-mentioned crisis phenomena are highlighted. The paper describes various approaches to the interpretation of the budgetary regulation as a category of financial law, explores various types and legal forms of methods of the budgetary regulation, analyses mechanisms and the impact of the State on the budget system through the existing legal structure of the budgetary regulation. It is determined that the rules of financial law governing the whole complex of public relations concerning the distribution and redistribution of the national product between the levels of the budget system of the Russian Federation constitute the institution of financial law, namely: the budgetary regulation. The author concludes that the approach based on the concentration of basic powers in the financial field at the federal level significantly slows down the dynamics of development of economic activity in the majority of regions of Russia, while the need for breakthrough innovative development of Russian society determinates the expansion of long-term tax sources of income for regional budgets. In this regard, it is proposed to consolidate additional regulation for revenues gained by regional and local budgets in the form of targeted deductions from federal taxes on a long-term basis.
