Abstract: The current stage of development of the Russian Federation poses new challenges at the state level. Strategic planning is one of the foundations for the stable and full-fledged development of the state and society in various spheres of life. Demography and demographic indicators are important areas in strategic planning with strong development potential. It has been established that the Russian Federation faces many demographic problems due to various reasons. At the same time, the very concept of demography is multidimensional, related to key areas in the social sphere. In this context, demography is a priority and an integral indicator of the effectiveness of strategic planning. Solving demographic problems through the use of strategic planning tools will improve the quality of life of the population, increase the level of healthcare and other socially significant development indicators. The article uses both general scientific research methods such as system analysis, logic, deduction and induction, etc. And specifically legal ones, such as analogy of law and analysis of legislation. As a result of the work, the following conclusions were made:
1. Demography is an important national priority and can be considered as an integral indicator of the effectiveness of strategic planning.
2. Demographic problems for the Russian Federation at this stage are generally recognized and acute. It is necessary to strengthen the quality of strategic planning in this area in conjunction with the implementation of strategies in other areas.
3. Demography is a complex component phenomenon that includes many components.
4. Issues of demography, development in this area and problem solving through the implementation of strategies should be addressed, including using data on the quality of life of the population. The latter should be understood as a fairly extensive set of factors representing the living conditions of individuals and society as a whole.
5. The current legal mechanism of strategic planning in the demographic sphere should be implemented taking into account the principles of administrative law.

Abstract: In the process of implementing public administration, the implementation of the provisions of the current legislation on strategic planning has an essential role and significance. Effective provision of the latter makes it possible to achieve short-term, medium-term, long-term goals and objectives formed at the state, regional and municipal levels. The subject of this study is strategic planning documents in the context of their application as management acts. The purpose of the work was to conduct a study of the features of strategic planning documents as management acts, identify existing problems in the array of strategic planning documents, as well as identify priority areas for improving the mechanism of legal regulation of strategic planning in the Russian Federation. To achieve the goal, the provisions of the current legislation and the positions that have developed in the legal doctrine with the use of general and special methods of scientific research are considered. A comprehensive analysis of existing approaches allowed us to draw a number of conclusions regarding the legal nature of strategic planning documents as acts of public administration, to identify a number of characteristic features for them. Proposals are formulated regarding the place of strategic planning documents in the system of public administration acts and the prospect of further development of legislation on strategic planning, as well as priority areas for further scientific research of this legal phenomenon. The data obtained can be used in the process of theoretical understanding of topical issues of strategic planning and practical activities to improve legal regulation in terms of the application of strategic planning documents.

Abstract: The subject of this article is the study of a new stage in the development of state policy in the field of strategic planning. The object of the study was the social relations developing in the sphere of strategic planning implementation in Russia and its regulatory and legal regulation.Methods of synthesis and analysis of literary and documentary sources, classification, generalization, formal legal method were used to write the article.
Particular attention is paid to the innovations of regulatory regulation caused by the publication of Decree of the President of the Russian Federation No. 633 "Fundamentals of state policy in the field of strategic planning in the Russian Federation".
The relevance of the study is due to the fact that despite the adoption of Federal Law No. 172-FZ on strategic planning 7 years ago, it is not necessary to say that such planning has reached the necessary qualitative level that ensures the effective functioning of the public administration system in the country - it is no coincidence that the issues of the formation of the practice of strategic planning are constantly in the focus of management states. The article provides a comparative analysis of new initiatives and their impact on the practice of public administration. The trends and patterns of strategic planning are analyzed. The approaches of specialists in relation to the legal aspects of planning are presented. The shortcomings of the legal framework of Russian legislation in the field of strategic planning are noted. The system of documents forming the basis for the application of this method is considered, and an opinion is expressed on the prospect of developing a mechanism for coordinating and controlling strategic planning documents.
It is concluded that "The fundamentals of state policy in the field of strategic planning ..." They should be supplemented with a Plan for their implementation with a list of necessary regulatory legal and methodological documents that disclose specific aspects and procedures for their impact on the strategic planning system across the country and its regions. It is advisable to approve a number of provisions of the Decree as additions to Federal Law No. 172-FZ.

Abstract: The subject of this research is the historical approaches towards administrative regulation of socioeconomic development of Russia throughout the XX and early XXI centuries. The article is dedicated to studying the administrative-legal mechanism of strategic planning. The key research methods are historical-chronological and dialectical. Analysis is conducted on the approaches towards administrative regulation of the development of Russian economy in the context of historical and dialectical development. The author examines the principal legislative acts that determine the state policy aimed at the development of economic system and achievement of the goals of socioeconomic development of the country and society. The obtained results indicate that the degree of government intervention in the economy varies. The author underlines that the intervention is justified and essential at the time of recession. A comprehensive strategic planning mechanism is currently being formed in Russia to ensure socioeconomic development; however, this institution requires some improvements. The author outlines future vectors of research of this mechanism for advancing its efficiency. For this purpose, it is offered to determine its elements, means of their interaction and form the system of principles for the development of state economic policy and its implementation.
