The Constitution of Russia and Ideology

The paper examines an ideological element of constitutional regulation, based on the understanding of ideology as part of a collective worldview aimed at expressing long-term ideals and interests of people related to the structure of society, its political and state organization. At the same time, the constitutional provisions on ideological and political diversity serve as the basis for the identification of a national ideology in the interaction of group (party) programs, the generalized expression of which constitutes the national idea. The author subjects to detailed analysis the provision of Part 2 of Article 13 of the Constitution of the Russian Federation stating that no ideology can be established as state or mandatory one. This prohibition cannot apply to constitutionally fixed ideologems as elements of a national ideology and their clarifying regulation. This prohibition is a means of securing ideological diversity. Constitutional ideologemes, which include, for example, the provisions of the Preamble, Articles 671 and 751, are being developed in other norms of the Constitution and current legislation. But the main direction of concretization of such ideologies is their value-doctrinal development in official strategies, doctrines, concepts. At this level, a systematic study of the civilizational vector of the country’s development is important. The idea of arranging the country, all aspects of its life can serve as a significant internal guideline.
