Problems of legal regulation of public events at the present stage

The subject of the study is the legal regulation of public relations arising in the process of realization by citizens of the Russian Federation of the constitutional right to participate in public events. Over the past decade, the legislation regulating the exercise by citizens of the Russian Federation of the constitutional right guaranteed by Article 31 of the Constitution of the Russian Federation has undergone significant changes. The development of socio-political processes inevitably leads to the emergence of new forms of public events, the need for legal regulation of which is still subject to comprehension in legal science. The conducted research of certain issues of legal regulation and practice of holding public events allows us to identify possible prospects for the development of legislation on public events, as well as to make suggestions for improving its current provisions. Research methods: the study was conducted using classical general scientific and special legal methods of cognition (historical, logical, including systemic, formal-legal, hermeneutic, etc.) in combination with an interdisciplinary approach (assessment of legal phenomena through the prism of social and political factors). Of particular importance for the purposes of this study is the method of comparative jurisprudence, which allowed us to establish trends in the development of legal regulation of the procedure for holding public events in foreign countries. The novelty lies in the proposals formulated by the authors of the article to improve the provisions of Federal Law No. 54-FZ of June 19, 2004 "On Meetings, rallies, demonstrations, processions and picketing".
