The relevance of the work is determined by the fact that the right to life belongs to the basic constitutional human rights, therefore,
its observance and protection is the duty of the state. Despite its undeniable importance, today the right to life anywhere in the world
is not really ensured in sufficient quantities. The constitutional consolidation of the right to life raises a number of issues related to
the concept, nature, legislative and practical implementation of this right.
It should be noted that various aspects of the human right to life were considered in the scientific works of G.B. Romanovsky,
O.G. Selikhova, T.M. Fomichenko, A.B. Borisova, V.A. Ershov and other Russian authors.
The aim of the study is to study and comparative analysis of the legal content of the constitutional norm that defines the right to life,
to comprehend and identify possible problems of the implementation of this right. To achieve this goal, this article discusses relevant
issues of ensuring the right to life, proclaimed by Article 20 of the Constitution of the Russian Federation and Article 27 of the Constitution
of Azerbaijan Republic.
The results of a comparative analysis of these constitutional norms and the relevant norms of industry law allow us to determine,
that there is no contradiction between Article 20 of the Constitution of the Russian Federation and the norms of the criminal
legislation of the Russian Federation, which imply the death penalty as an exceptional measure of punishment, because a moratorium
has been imposed on the death penalty in the Russian Federation since April 16, 1997. However, after the abolition of the death
penalty in the criminal legislation of the Republic of Azerbaijan in 1998, there was a discrepancy between parts II and III of Article 27
of the Constitution of the Republic of Azerbaijan and the criminal legislation of Azerbaijan Republic that requires the introduction
of the necessary changes in the content of the analyzed constitutional norm.
The value of the work is determined by the fact that the introduction of appropriate changes will contribute to the further
improvement of the Constitution of the Republic of Azerbaijan and the effective implementation of the right to life of everyone.
