Abstract
A thorough examination of governmental and legal processes holds significant relevance in the modern world characterized by constantly evolving global dynamics. Delving into diverse theoretical frameworks such as realistic, constructivist, and liberal perspectives enables a more comprehensive understanding of the essence of national interests and their legal governance. The objective is to undertake a comprehensive analysis of the legal framework governing national interests in the Russian Federation, encompassing both theoretical aspects and practical implementation, and to provide recommendations for enhancing the legal system. The study employs various methodologies: the formal-logical method aids in analyzing legal norms and their interconnectedness; the systemic method enables a thorough exploration of international relations theories, their links to national interests; and the modeling method is utilized to forecast potential scenarios and evaluate their legal implications. The article draws the following conclusions: 1) The realist approach underscores the significance of state sovereignty and security. 2) Despite the prevailing realist paradigm in Russia, the liberal concept retains importance due to its emphasis on international cooperation, economic interdependence, and adherence to legal norms. 3) The constructivist theory remains relevant for its focus on the role of ideas, norms, and values in shaping national interests and adapting to evolving international circumstances. The amalgamation of realist, constructivist, and liberal approaches serves as a contemporary and highly sought-after tool for analyzing and comprehending intricate processes in the modern world.
