Sergeeva, K. O. Peculiarities of the Legal Enforcement of the Institution of Local Law Making in the Legislation of the Russian Federation Constituents of the North-Caucasian District and Charters of Municipal Units

Abstract: In the Russian Federation public authority is based on the principles of centralization and decentralization as specified in the Russian Constitution. These principles imply that the competence is divided between the authorities of different levels. The principle of decentralization does not mean that there is no central administration at all. It means that there should be the combination of local and central governments on the basis of the principle of mandatory division of powers between different levels of public authority and t erritorial jurisdiction of administrative authorities.
