Abstract
The research contains the analysis ofthe existential traits of contemporary Russian constitutionalism as a complicated societal and cultural phenomenon providingfor a fundamentals of the legal environment of constitutional governance in this country. Author highlights a number ofspecific features andfactors which have a significant impact on the figure of contemporary Russian constitutionalism as well he also underlines that the most severe obstacles in the way to legal modernization of Russia are the global challenges, the distortion of the mass legal consciousness, and the excessive bureaucracy within the public authority’s institutions. Developing the State of Rule of Law the uncompromising counteraction to nihilism and idealism in Law is needed as well as to the factors of their existence. The research provides for the analysis of different views and approaches formulated by contemporary scientists in Law and Russian thinkers of the past in the context of the peculiarities of Russian constitutionalism, the mainstreams of its development and the actual issues of the legal modernization of Russia nowadays. Author makes the conclusion that the shortcomings of contemporary Russian constitutionalism have deep historical roots and in a certain meaning is being supported by the national mentality. It is the main reason explaining that all the needed improvements of contemporary Russian constitutionalism could not be reached merely by revising the 1993 Russian Constitution, and the popular idea of ‘tabula rasa’ being alleged by some politicians and scientists in Law has rather the potential of a harm than of a public good.
