Bashkunov, A.A. Social and political security of the region of the Russian Federation: current state and tendencies.

Abstract: The leading role in the system of ensuring national security belongs to the state. However, considering the problem of ensuring the national security of a federal state, it should be noted that regional authorities and local self-government bodies are of great importance in the process of ensuring its security and its constituent parts (subjects of the federation). The present and future of the Russian state depends on their internal state as structural elements of the federation. The article by A.A. Bashkunov examines the components and current trends of regional development in this area.
