State and public security as strategic national priorities: Current state

Abstract

The analysis of domestic legislation in ensuring state and public security makes it possible not only to see the existing weaknesses but also to find trends in the main directions of its development. Today, Russia is one of the most important players in the international arena. The existence of problems in social and economic development, migration processes, terrorism, ecology, competitive environment in the international market, development of the military-industrial complex of bordering countries, is permanent. Consequently, Russian legislation in ensuring state and public security must meet modern insurmountable challenges and develop solutions to existing problems. Accordingly, the goal of the research is to characterize the institutions of state and public security at the present stage of the development of the Russian state. The formulation of this goal predetermined the solution of the following research objectives: to establish the place of state and public security at present; to consider the key elements on which these types of security are based; to determine modern threats to state and public security. The study actively used general scientific (analysis, synthesis) and specific scientific methods (formal-logical, comparative-legal, specific-sociological), which was reflected in the results. The author formulated conclusions emphasizing that management in the sphere of ensuring security, both state and public, is a complex process in which almost all structures and institutions of the state are involved. In the sphere of managing state and public security, authorities at all levels must carry out their activities in cooperation with civil society institutions. This process will maximize the mutual provision of social security for citizens and society. Only by taking into account all the specified needs of society, the state itself will develop towards stability, financial well-being and social harmony.
