Constitutional and legal institutions and means of ensuring economic security

in the context of changing global political attitudes, the study of problems related to the legal regulation of economic legal relations is currently gaining increasing importance. Since the economy is one of the most important indicators of the state's activity, issues of ensuring its security are directly related to ensuring state sovereignty. The purpose of this study is to identify legal mechanisms for ensuring the economic security of Russia and the problems associated with their implementation. For this purpose, the author analyzed the definition of economic security presented in the legislation and put forward an assumption about its narrow interpretation in the current wording. In order to identify the essence of this legal category, the author studied the main institutions and means of ensuring economic security enshrined in the Constitution of the Russian Federation and other regulatory legal acts. It was established that the responsibilities for ensuring economic security are within the competence of many government bodies, including the President of the Russian Federation, the Federal Assembly of the Russian Federation, the Government of the Russian Federation. The main means used by these government bodies in the course of their activities to ensure the economic security of the state are determined. Based on the presented constitutional and legal norms, the author proposed a new formulation of the term «ensuring economic security».
