§ 25. Executive and judicial power in Russian Federation

The order of formation of the Government of the Russian Federation is as follows. The President of the Russian Federation appoints the Chairman of the Government of the Russian Federation with the consent of State Duma. If the State Duma rejects a candidate submitted by the President three times, the President has the right to dissolve the State Duma and call new elections. The Chairman of the Government submits to the President a list of executive authorities and proposes to him candidates for the positions of his deputies and federal ministers. Government of the Russian Federation:

If the Government of the Russian Federation fails to perform its duties satisfactorily, its powers may be terminated. According to the Constitution of the Russian Federation, the Government can submit a resignation, which is accepted or rejected by the President of the Russian Federation. The President may also decide on the resignation of the Government. The State Duma, in turn, may, by a majority of votes, express no confidence in the Government. In this case, the President either decides on the resignation of the Government, or disagrees with the opinion of the State Duma. After the State Duma reiterates its no-confidence in the Government, the President either decides on his resignation or dissolves the State Duma.

Justice in Russia it is carried out only by the court. The overwhelming majority of cases are considered by district, city, and regional courts. The creation of emergency courts is not allowed. Judges are inviolable, independent and subject only to the law.

Consideration of cases in all courts is open. Legal proceedings are based on the principles of competition (with the participation of a lawyer and a prosecutor) and equality of the parties. The Constitution of the Russian Federation restored the possibility of participation of jurors in legal proceedings in cases provided for by federal law. Jurors participate, for example, in serious crime cases.

Judicial branch carried out through constitutional, civil, administrative and criminal proceedings. The provisions of the Constitution of the Russian Federation on the system of courts are developed and specified in the Federal Constitutional Law "On the judicial system of the Russian Federation".

The Russian Federation has federal courts, constitutional (charter) courts and justices of the peace of the constituent entities of the Russian Federation, which constitute the judicial system of the Russian Federation.

The courts of the constituent entities of the Russian Federation include:

Constitutional (charter) courts of subjects of the Russian Federation;

Justices of the peace who are judges of general jurisdiction of the constituent entities of the Russian Federation.

Constitutional Court of the Russian Federation(consists of 19 judges) resolves cases on compliance with the Constitution of the Russian Federation: federal laws, normative acts of the President of the Russian Federation, the Federation Council, the State Duma of the Russian Federation, the Government of the Russian Federation; constitutions of the republics, charters of other subjects of the Federation; not entered into force international treaties RF and other acts. The Constitutional Court resolves disputes about competence between federal authorities, between federal authorities state power the Russian Federation and state authorities of the subjects of the Russian Federation, between the highest state bodies of the subjects of the Russian Federation; checks the constitutionality of the law applied in a particular case; gives interpretation of the Constitution of the Russian Federation and performs other powers stipulated by the Constitution.

District (city) court considers cases as a court of first and second (in relation to magistrates) instances. It is directly superior to the magistrates acting on the territory of the relevant judicial authority. World judge considers civil, administrative and criminal cases as a court of first instance. It is anticipated that, over time, most civil, administrative and criminal cases will be handled by magistrates (less complex cases) and district courts (more complex cases).

Supreme Arbitration Court of the Russian Federation is the highest judicial body for resolving economic disputes and other cases considered by arbitration courts, exercises judicial supervision over their activities in the procedural forms provided for by federal law and provides clarifications on issues of judicial practice.

The Prosecutor's Office of the Russian Federation is not part of the judiciary. It is removed from the legislative, executive and judicial powers. The prosecutor's office forms independent unified centralized system with the subordination of lower prosecutors to higher ones and to the Prosecutor General of the Russian Federation. The latter is appointed to the position and dismissed from it by the Federation Council on the proposal of the President of the Russian Federation. Prosecutors of the subjects of the Federation are appointed by the Prosecutor General of the Russian Federation in agreement with its subjects. Other prosecutors are appointed by the Prosecutor General of the Russian Federation.

INTRODUCTION

Administrative law, along with constitutional and civil law, is one of the main branches of the Russian legal system. This is primarily due to the fact that administrative law is precisely the branch of law that regulates social relations arising in the process of implementing executive power, which is one of the branches of the unified state power of the Russian Federation in the system of its division into legislative, executive and judicial ( article 10 of the Constitution of the Russian Federation). This leads to the following conclusion: in order to understand the essence of administrative law and the features of administrative and legal regulation, it is necessary first of all to find out what the executive power itself is. After all, it is, in my opinion, a kind of foundation for this branch of Russian law.

The relevance of the research topic is largely due to the fact that the executive branch occupies a dominant position in the system of state power.

The literature provides an estimate according to which 85 percent of state power in Russia belongs to the executive "branch of power", and the parliament, courts, prosecutor's office, and other bodies in the aggregate - about 15 percent. one

Overwhelming majority government agencies are executive. By nature, the executive power is inextricably linked with the process of day-to-day management of the country, which predetermines the specific and dynamic nature of its activities, which require appropriate regulatory framework in the form of numerous by-laws issued within its competence. The efficiency of the functioning of the executive power is possible only if a stable, centralized, rigidly hierarchical vertical is created, which makes it possible to accurately and timely implement the decisions made.

Executive power is an integral attribute of the state power mechanism. modern Russia built on the principles of separation of powers. At its core, executive power is law enforcement power. It exists relatively independently along with the legislative and judicial authorities and is expressed in the activities of special subjects endowed with executive and administrative competence, and is represented in the state power mechanism by executive authorities. Just like any other power, the executive branch has its own strictly certain signs, namely:

    executive power is universal, it is continuous and exists wherever human collectives function;

    executive power is characterized by coercive nature and focuses on force, on the ability to independently implement measures of influence to ensure the proper behavior of objects under its jurisdiction;

    executive power has an organizing character;

    executive power is characterized by a strictly defined objectivity - the presence of legal, informational, technical and organizational resources for its practical implementation (implementation).

Executive power is the ability and ability to exert a decisive influence on activities, behavior, as well as the right and ability to subordinate others to one's will. A distinctive feature of this branch of power is that it is implemented in relation to both the collective and individual elements of a state-organized society, that is, on a national scale and as a specific state function of a law enforcement (law enforcement) nature. This is the most important characteristic of the executive power, since it reveals its special state-legal nature, makes it possible to distinguish between the performance of this kind and the performance inherent in any organized cell of society as a means of managing one's own affairs (self-organization).

Executive power cannot simply be identified with state administration as an executive and administrative activity. Management activity is a practical form of implementation of the executive power, while the executive power itself reflects only the functional purpose of this activity, within which the executive power is practically implemented. And this shows the relationship between these concepts. Executive power, in fact, is the content of public administration activities. At the same time, all subjects of the executive power are at the same time the links of state administration, carried out outside the framework of the activities of the subjects of only the executive power.

The executive power is exercised through the activities of special entities endowed with executive competence. The main or central place among the subjects of administrative law belongs to the executive authorities. An executive authority (government body) is understood as a holistic, structurally formalized independent social entity that functionally carries out executive and administrative activities in order to solve the problems of society and the state in the socio-political, socio-cultural, economic and intersectoral spheres of state activity.

The specifics of this work is a detailed study of the system and structure of executive authorities. So, the executive authority is an executive and administrative authority that exercises this power (government body), i.e., enforces the laws and by-laws of federal authorities and authorities of the constituent entities of the Russian Federation in the areas of activity of the state assigned to its jurisdiction. Since, in my opinion, the authorities must rely on the law and the unified executive power formed in accordance with it. Otherwise, I think it will be impossible to solve the most important political, economic and social problems.

In order to achieve the goals set in this work, I have outlined a number of tasks, among which it is necessary:

Expand the concept of executive power;

Determine what place the executive authorities occupy in the system of separation of powers;

Determine the legal basis for the system of separation of powers;

To disclose the powers of executive authorities;

To study the system and structure of executive authorities and consider the main ways of improvement.

In order to solve the tasks set by me, when writing the work, the regulatory legal acts of the Russian Federation, scientific and other literature were used.

CHAPTER 1.EXECUTIVE AUTHORITIES IN THE SYSTEM OF SEPARATION OF POWERS IN THE RUSSIAN FEDERATION

§ 1. On the history of the issue of creating a system of separation of powers in the Russian Federation

In the modern era, the fundamental principle of the separation of powers is one of the most important foundations for the structure and functioning of the state mechanism in the vast majority of countries. However, the recognition of this principle, neither theoretically nor practically, does not lead to a denial of such an understanding of power, according to which it is a structurally ordered integrity. Therefore, the concept of separation of powers formulated by Montesquieu and refined by Kant can only be regarded as an ideal structure of power, playing the role of a methodological model. Power by its very nature is one. And even if we assume that its compartments act independently, independently of each other, asynchronously pursuing various goals, then the result of events will not be a doctrinaire implementation of a theoretical principle, but complete destruction, chaos, anarchy. History knows enough examples when a tough confrontation between one branch of power and another ultimately led to a split in society, civil wars, confusion, and unrest.

The problem of separation of powers arises only in conditions of heterogeneous societies, where there are various independent economic and political entities, where there are elements of civil society (it does not matter: in an embryonic or relatively developed state). It is in these circumstances that there is an urgent need for functional isolation, specialization of the branches of power that help maintain a certain balance in society. This is not so much about technical isolation to make the process of social management more effective, but about the political and legal foundations of this phenomenon. And they boil down to two fundamental points:

1. In governing the state, one cannot rely only on good intentions, the virtue of rulers, since the possibility of unlimited power can turn any, even the most wise, kind leader into a tyrant, which is fraught with an imbalance in the relationship between power and society and, ultimately, the destruction of the integrity of the political systems.

2. The principle of separation of powers is inextricably linked with the idea of ​​the right of every citizen to exercise power.
Thus, it is an integral part of the problem of democracy and the democratic structure of society.

The term "public administration" is quite widely used both in domestic and foreign legal literature. However, the Constitution of the Russian Federation uses the term “executive power” instead, in connection with which the correlation of these concepts is of interest.

Until the 80s of the last century, the state authorities in our country had to solve the most important issues in the form of relevant laws. Further, the state administration bodies carried out the practical implementation of these laws, i.e. enforcement, and the judiciary carried out the so-called "legislative" functions. And moreover, far from all state bodies of state administration carried out executive and administrative activities to implement the requirements of laws. These included the Soviets (Soviets of People's Deputies) at all levels with their unforgettable slogan: "All power to the Soviets."

In the 80s - early 90s, at the turn of "perestroika", a transition was gradually made from the theory of "separation of powers", the essence of which is as follows:

    state power is always united in its manifestations: “legislation - execution - justice";

    state power cannot and should not belong to one person or state body;

    authorities are, as it were, branches of one tree, but the division of power is necessary, therefore these branches must be distinguished by a certain independence, and each branch of power must correspond to certain subjects - public authorities expressing it. 2

In this regard, instead of the term “public administration”, the term “executive power” began to be used gradually at first, and then (after the adoption of the Constitution of the Russian Federation in 1993) and everywhere.
