Abstract
Background. The article is devoted to the study of the role and significance of a person as a subject of constitutional legal relations. The author explores the role of a person in various models of constitutionalism. The relevance of the study is due to the changing social relations, the rethinking and development of the theory of constitutionalism, and, as a result, the role and place of the individual as a subject of constitutional legal relations in various jurisdictions. Materials and methods. The implementation of research objectives was achieved through the analysis of works dedicated to the theory of constitutionalism and the rule of law. Special attention was paid to the research of Russian and foreign constitutionalists on the specifics of constitutionalism in jurisdictions with different models of constitutionalism, both traditional and alternative. The methodological toolkit includes comparative legal and historical legal analysis, as well as the analysis of regulatory legal acts. Results. As a result, the author concludes that the role and significance of a person as a subject of constitutional legal relations differ significantly in different jurisdictions. The French model of constitutionalism provides for the most active role of a person in constitutional legal relations. Conclusions. The stability of the legal status of a person as a subject of constitutional legal relations depends on the development of other subjects of constitutional legal relations. The role and significance of a person in constitutional legal relations are significantly influenced by the level of legal and economic development of the state, historical traditions, and cultural and religious characteristics of society. With the development of social relations, including scientific and technological progress, the emergence of a digital state, and the introduction of artificial intelligence, the role and place of a person as a subject of constitutional legal relations are under additional pressure.
