Introduction: the emergence of such freelancing as remote labor meant the beginning of the process of the flexible virtual law formation. “Cloud computing” is coming into life. There appear the concepts of “working in the cloud” only in the virtual (digital) space, so the government program “Digital economy in the Russian Federation” of July 28, 2017, No. 1632-P adopted in the framework of the Decree of the President of the Russian Federation of May 9, 2017 provided the need for the formation of a comprehensive legislative regulation of relations arising in connection with the digital economy development. At the same time, it is specifically noted that the labor market should be based on its requirements in order to create productive employment. Methods: the methodological framework for this study is the methods of scientific knowledge, among which the main ones are the methods of consistency, analysis and comparative law. Results: the paper is devoted to the existing problems of the legal regulation of digital technologies in labor relations for the expedient and empirical updating of many legal norms, from which in the future it will be possible to start, change and supplement it, adhering to a fundamental change in labor relations in order to develop non-standard and fruitful employment. Conclusions: as a result of the conducted research it is established that in the Russian Federation the labor legislation regulating the electronic legal employment relations is fragmented and does not contain all the elements of the legal regulation. There is a need for the legislation on archive business in electronic form, the widespread introduction of electronic employment contracts, which can serve as the basis for the electronic personnel records management. The labor legislation should contain the provisions on the equivalence of an electronic labor contract to a written form.

The subject. The article deals with topical issues of ensuring the realization of the employee's right to healthy and safe working conditions.The purpose of the study is to identify the main directions of improvement of the Labor Code of the Russian Federation in the field of labor protection.The methodology includes formal-legal method, the analysis of the components of the right to healthy and safe working conditions, as well as the right to information and related rights.The main results. The author formulates proposals for amending a number of articles of the Labor Code, including those containing the most important branch principles, as well as those on termination of the employment contract and ensuring the right of an employee to a workplace that meets the requirements of labor protection.Examples from judicial practice show a low level of legal awareness of Russian employers and their disdainful attitude to labor legislation. This is expressed not only in violation of labor protection rules, but also in the absence of proper registration of an employee, when a written labor contract is not concluded with him. Thus, the relationship between the norms of different labor law institutions is expressed, expressed in their protective potential. The existing approach to understanding labor protection in a broad sense to a certain extent may be in demand even now. For example, by improving the norms on the conclu-sion, modification and termination of an employment contract, it is possible to achieve in parallel a certain improvement in working conditions for workers. This is due to the fact that legal registration of employment in most cases is associated with a higher level of security, since an employee without clearance does not actually exist for the state control and supervisory bodies.Conclusions. Understanding of labor protection as all-round protection of labor capacity of the person, being so widespread in Soviet time, looks quite justified nowadays too. The Labor Code of the Russian Federation, as the central regulatory legal act, should be considered as an instrument not only of legal regulation, but also of a powerful ideological impact on domestic employers, and changes and additions to labor legislation concerning labor protection should be made according to above-mentioned conclusion.

In this article, we present the first generalization and analysis of decisions made by Russian courts of general jurisdiction from 2009 to 2016 for the application of provisions of the Labor Code of the Russian Federation, the Federal Law of November 21, 2011 No. 323-FZ ʼOn the fundamentals of protecting the health of citizens in the Russian Federationʼ, the Federal Law of July 3, 2016 No. 238-FZ ʼOn independent qualification assessmentʼ, the Federal Law of December 29, 2013 No. 273-FZ ʼOn education in the Russian Federationʼ, the Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation of October 28, 2013 No. 966 ʼOn licensing educational activitiesʼ adopted to fulfill the Decree of the President of the Russian Federation of May 7, 2012 No. 599 ʼAbout measures to implement the state policy in the sphere of education and scienceʼ in the field of advanced training and (or) professional training of employed population aged from 25 to 65 years. As a result, we have made several conclusions. Firstly, if periodical advanced training is a mandatory condition for admission to work (for example, for medical workers), then courts using separate methods of protecting rights of citizens (in particular, health care), should understand the consequences of these decisions. Secondly, the imposition of administrative sanctions in accordance with Part 3 of Article 19.20 of the Code of Administrative Offences due to the non-systematic increase in the professional level of educators recommends improving the algorithm for substantiating the gross violation of license requirements. Thirdly, the legal status of a person who has concluded an agreement on advanced training differs from that of an apprenticeship contract, and the guarantees for this person are not established by Articles 203-205 but rather Article 187 of the Labor Code of the Russian Federation. Therefore, courts should not qualify a contract on advanced training as an apprenticeship contract. Fourthly, if advanced training is not designated for employees as additional qualification and an employer does not have the duty to pay for this training, then the resolution of a possible dispute should be based on whether the employer's interest is realized or not. Fifthly, the impossibility of an employee to work should be objective and compulsory, which is assessed by the law enforcer based on the balance of rights and interests of both parties of the corresponding employment contract. Sixthly, the legal regulation of the independent assessment of working qualification requires its improvement and alignment with norms of the labor legislation of the Russian Federation.

The article is a comparative study of legal regulation on non-profits in the Russian Federation by federal law, including the Constitution, federal statutes, decrees of the President of the Russian Federation, resolutions of the Government and Constitutional Court rulings in connection with certain international legal acts dealing with the right to association, and by the law of the constituent entities of the Russian Federation. The main stages of the development of the law on non-profits both at the federal level and at the level of the constituent entities of the Russian Federation, as well as the main trends in the development of non-profit law in modern Russia, are explored.


In the article, a comparison is made between constitutional review and judicial review exercised by courts of general jurisdiction in Russia on the basis of comparative-law methodology. The author concludes that it is necessary to empower citizens with the right to consider their appeals within the framework of abstract review by courts of general jurisdiction. A proposal has also been formulated on granting the right to appeal for the protection of the rights of citizens and their associations within the framework of the Russian Code of Administrative Procedure (CAP), the Commissioner for Human Rights in Russian Federation, the Commissioner for Children’s Rights, the Commissioner for the Rights of Business-Owners, and also the other Commissioners for these areas on the subjects of the Russian Federation, and the deputies of all levels – from municipal to federal. The author states that with the adoption of the CAP, the problem of checking federal regulations that have less legal force than Decrees of the Government of the Russian Federation for compliance with the Russian Constitution has not been resolved. It is suggested vesting the courts of general jurisdiction with the right to exercise administrative and judicial control over compliance of such acts with the Russian Constitution. The article reveals the problem of lack of terminological unity in the legal regulation of similar institutions of constitutional and administrative judicial review. The need to unify a number of norms of constitutional and administrative legislation on regulatory control issue is emphasized.

The article analyzes the amendments to the Constitution of the Russian Federation “Оn improving the regulation of certain issues of the organization of public power”. It is argued that the imposition of restrictions to replace the state and municipal posts, posts of state and municipal services associated with the presence of foreign citizenship or residence permit or other document confirming the right to permanent residence of citizens of the Russian Federation on the territory of a foreign state will not provide the “nationalization of the elites” because such a limitation is not provided for family members of the listed officials. Without this, the amendment is meaningless. The article doubts the feasibility of transferring the function of determining the main directions of domestic and foreign policy to the State Council, which by its status and composition belongs to the Executive bodies of state power. A priori, Executive power is secondary to representative power. Therefore, the Federal Assembly of the Russian Federation, in cooperation with the President of the Russian Federation, should have priority in shaping the main directions of domestic and foreign policy.

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].

This article describes the periods of development of the legal institution of employment contract in Russia. The characteristic features for each of them are defined. The first period was the longest and was marked by develogment of the contract of personal employment as the origin of the modern institution of employment contract. In the second period, the contract of personal employment represented the institution of civil law, and later became the subject of study of the civil law science. At that time the industrial law of the country was forming. A distinctive feature of the third period was the adoption of codified acts, as well as differentiation in the legal regulation of labor relations of temporary and seasonal workers. The fourth period is characterized by changes in state-legal methods of economic management. With the adoption of the Constitution of the Russian Federation labor legislation was assigned to the joint jurisdiction of the Russian Federation and its subjects. It is concluded that the adoption of the Labor Code of the Russian Federation necessitates a more accurate study of the problems arising in the application of specific rules of law governing the peculiarities of labor of certain categories of workers (for example, labor relations with persons with disabilities are not yet perfect because of the youth of the labor law), conflict of laws issues arising in practice, contradictions that occur in a huge array of legal documents not only in labor law, but also in other branches of law.

Due to the new coronavirus pandemic, high alert regimes were introduced across the Russian Federation in spring 2020. These emergency regimes were established exclusively by the state bodies of the Russian Federation’s constituent units – federal authorities did not introduce their own emergency regimes. This decentralized strategy of fighting the pandemic was also introduced by the USA and Brazil. Their states, without the sanction of the federal government, and in the case of Brazil, ignoring its bans, set emergency restrictions similar to those in Russia. The legal regulation of emergency regimes existed before 2020, when constituent units of the federation (states) actively used their emergency powers. However, the regimes introduced during the fight against the pandemic were slightly different to previous ones. The restrictions on rights and freedoms within these regimes were so severe that not only their proportionality was questioned, but there were also doubts as to whether the regional level of the government had the authority to establish such strict restrictions. In addition, the pandemic exposed old problems and revealed new shortcomings in the legal regulation of emergency regimes: lack of control over the realization of the emergency regime by legislative (representative) authorities, and gaps in legislative regulation – notably in the establishment of possible restrictions and of a mechanism for scrutinizing their proportionality. All this raised questions about the proportionality of the established restrictions. The Constitutional Court of the Russian Federation resolved a very insignificant amount of the problems. While the United States and Brazil faced similar issues, the practice of scrutinizing implemented restrictions in these countries was more common. This article takes domestic and foreign experiences into account, while examining certain aspects of the establishment and the operation of regional emergency regimes.
