| Summary / Abstract (Note) | The given paper examines the historical experience of the Russian model of federalism: its evolution from its emergence in 1918 to the present day. The author singles out peculiarities of the Soviet model of federalism, such as the absence of competition among the various subjects and the blossoming off national cultures. The new model of Russian federalism which emerged in 1991-1993 differed by its asymmetry, the complex structure of its subjects, budgetary federalism and other features. The author concludes that modernization of the existing model of federalism should proceed along the lines of strengthening the horizontal ties and infrastructures, since this will promote the evening out of the social-and-economic levels of the 85 subjects of the Russian Federation. |
