Ethics and Professionalism in the Activities of Representatives of Subjects of Public Control in the Russian Federation

The Russian Federation Constitution enshrines the legal status of the multinational people of Russia as the bearer of sovereignty and the only source of power in the country. However, the constitutional principles of democracy and the participation of society in the management of state affairs need a system of legal guarantees, the most important of which is the institution of public control. The basis of the legal regulation of this institution of civil society is a system of legal principles - the basic, most general principles that determine the content and main directions of regulation of this institution of civil society in the Russian Federation. A number of scientific research methods are used in the work: comparative legal, historical legal, formal logical and a number of others. This article is devoted to the analysis of ethics and professionalism in the activities of representatives of public control in the Russian Federation as its principle. The authors substantiate the need to expand the list of principles enshrined in Article 6 of Federal Law No. 212-FZ dated 21.07.2014 "On the Foundations of Public Control in the Russian Federation", in particular, the principles of centralism and decentralization in the organization and activities of subjects of public control, ethics and professionalism in the activities of their representatives, responsibility (both their representatives and officials, as well as representatives of objects of public control). The authors formalize and examine the main problems that prevent the consolidation and implementation of this principle of public control. The author has developed and substantiated a system of measures to resolve these problems, including by introducing amendments and additions to the legislation of the Russian Federation.
