. Models of constitutional judicial control and the experience of the Russian Federation.

Abstract: The value of formation, improvement and of effective functioning of the judicial constitutional control in the Russian Federation can hardly be underestimated. It is important, however, that related problems can be solved more easily, if we take into account the foreign experience of constitutional control. In N.N. Kharitonova’s article one may find analysis of key models of judicial constitutional control - usually referred to as an American model and a European model, or, in their functional aspect, diffusion and concentration models. The author also provides us with an evaluation of the Russian model of judicial constitutional control.
