The Constitutional Value of Trust

The paper examines the issues regarding the values enshrined in the Constitution of the Russian Federation from the standpoint of constitutional axiology. There is a variety of approaches to understanding constitutional values, their structure and legal characteristics. The author considers the phenomenon of trust as a social and constitutional value. The author draws a conclusion about her own understanding of the legal essence of constitutional values, which is not reduced to an idea, installation, principle or norm. They are an expression of self-identification of the multinational people of the Russian Federation, establishing the constitutional system. Therefore, they are constitutional values in the absolute meaning of this concept, and they have the property of integrativeness. The consolidation of the value of trust in the preamble of the Constitution of the Russian Federation is of paramount importance for the approval of the new constitutional order, the activities of public authorities, relations between the authorities and society, and the interaction of civil society institutions. In a formal legal context, this involves the creation, on the basis of the law, of institutions, procedures, means of protecting rights that should be based on trust and should be effective. Trust as a constitutional value is a criterion for assessing the institutions of public authority and civil society, the activities of subjects of constitutional legal relations, primarily public authorities.
