Abstract
This article based on the paper, presented by the author at the Conference — “Constitution of Russia yesterday, today and tomorrow” (held by 14.12.2021 in Sankt Petersburg, Russia). The main targets of this event, according to the organizers idea, was the debate on the impact of 2020 Constitutional reform on Russian Society, from the one hand, and “the outlook over the horizon”, from the other, in order to understand which options the country has for further development of its constitutional order in spite of the current conservative turnover. Taking into consideration both this questions, the author presents his answers on them in the context of international and national place of the Russian constitutionalism and logic of its internal development. That mean that the gravity center of analysis placed not in the area of its actual positioning, but in the sphere of hypothetical scenarios of its future transformation.
