Law Rules and Principles for the Implementation of the National Strategic Priority «Protection of Traditional Russian Spiritual and Moral Values, Culture, and Historical Memory»

Documents of strategic planning approved between 2021 and 2023 in the area of protecting traditional Russian values, culture, and historical memory stated fundamental legal norms and principles of a state-oriented value policy. The protec tion of the most significant civic traditional spiritual values — key constitutional val ues that constitute the core of Russian identity and serve as a principal factor in the formation of national interests — is normatively enshrined as a goal of law and its institutions. Regulatory acts also delineate the instruments, including legal mecha nisms, of a new direction in public governance aimed at ensuring sociocultural securi ty, enabling the legal protection of traditional values from unlawful encroachments. In addressing the task of further entrenching the principles of constitutionalism within public life, the strategic planning documents under consideration create the necessary conditions for the formation of a national civic ideology, serving as a tool for realiz ing national interests. This task is to be achieved through comprehensive interaction between the state and civil society in the embodiment of constitutional ideas into po litical and legal practices, with political parties playing a leading role in this process.
