ABRAMOVA, MARIANNA. The Constitutional Reform of 2020: A New Stage of State-Building in Russia?. Rev. Derecho Estado [online]. 2024, n.58, pp.241-268.  Epub 17-Fev-2024. ISSN 0122-9893.  https://doi.org/10.18601/01229893.n58.09.

The given article offers an analysis of the amendments made to the Constitution of Russia in 2020. The author conducted an analysis of the reasons of the past reform, its course and features. The author comes to the conclusion that the shortcomings of the 1993 Constitution, adopted in the context of a political crisis, doomed it to change. In the new socio-political conditions of the 2010-20's, the Russian authorities decided for the first time to establish communication with the society, which forced them to propose a procedure for a popular vote on amendments and support the value of "unconditional sovereignty" as a goal of constitutional changes. Having received approval to change the Constitution, the political regime of Vladimir Putin, being a compromise between the transnational and national elites, announced a new stage of state-building. Will the opportunity become a reality? The answer to this question depends on the future socio-economic course of the Russian authorities.
