LEGAL PROTECTION IN THE LEGAL STRUCTURE OF THE SOVIET STATE (ON THE EXAMPLE OF THE USSR CONSTITUTION OF 1977)
The Constitution of the USSR of 1977 determined the system of state power and administration in the corresponding historical period. The organization and purposeful orientation of managerial activity at different levels of the functioning of state power in a socialist state attract the attention of specialists and researchers at the present time, with the possibility of a retrospective study of these processes. This contributes to the development of optimal forms of public administration in modern conditions, in which the process of execution, use, observance and application of the norms of the Constitution of the Russian Federation can take place. The identification and analysis of common and specific features of state bodies, indicated in the provisions of the Constitution of the USSR of 1977, creates the necessary basis for a new understanding of the process of the genesis of the system of power in our country in the recent period of history. The use of elements of the historical experience of state-administrative development can objectively ensure the development of more effective forms of activity of state bodies at the present time.
