Family as a value of the Russian State (Historical and Legal Aspect)

The study of the Russian experience of legislative protection of the institution of family through the prism of historical analysis and understanding of its influence on modern socio-economic processes and norms of society against the background of the global trend of the collapse of the institution of family is of particular importance. The author’s work is aimed at studying changes in legislation concerning the institution of family in Russia from the establishment of Soviet power to the constitutional reforms of 2020. Despite the transformation of law in different historical periods, the desire of the legislator to strengthen the family, social support for family members in need remained unchanged. Today, the constitutional principle of state protection of family, motherhood, fatherhood and childhood is of priority importance. However, in order for the provisions enshrined in the Basic Law to be widely and effectively applied, it is necessary for each individual and society as a whole to strive for a conscious choice in favor of self-identification based on the deep origins of the past, the cultural unity of our country, respect for traditions, and the values of previous generations. The key factor in this should be the formation of these values in the family.
