The Amendment to the Constitution of the Russian Federation concerning the Ideals of our Ancestors and Faith in God as the Basis for Sustainable Development of Russia

The paper, based on the analysis of research works of famous modern and pre-revolutionary constitutional scholars, philosophers, as well as the provisions of the Constitution of Russia, current legislation and law enforcement practice, shows the problems of sustainable development of Russia arising from the excessive reliance of mankind on environment and the global intensification of socio-economic development. The author determines new prospects for their resolution implementing the provisions of the Amendment included in the Constitution of the Russian Federation in 2020 and devoted to the ideals of our ancestors and faith in God as the basis of sustainable development, which are based on spiritual and moral values tested in practice by our ancestors during many centuries of the national statehood. Special attention is paid to the examination of the interaction and interrelation between the norms of religion, morality and law in creating a qualitative basis for sustainable development through the unity and social solidarity of the man, state institutions and civil society in ensuring the continuity of the statehood of Russia.
