Promotion of the national system of value-based civilizational development of Russian family law

Introduction. The article discusses ways to integrate a value-based civilizational approach into the family law of the Russian Federation. The emphasis is placed on the key role of the family in the Russian civilizational model and on the methodological significance of taking into account traditional spiritual and moral values in law-making.

The purpose of the study is to develop proposals for improving the mechanism for promoting the national system of value–based civilizational development of Russian family law.

Methods. The methodological basis of the research civilizational-value, which allowed taking into account the unique cultural and historical features of the Russian legal system. The article analyzes modern scientific works examining the essence of traditional family values in Russian society.

Results. It has been established that the family in the Russian civilizational model has the status of an absolute value, and its legal protection should be implemented based on the traditional spiritual and moral values of society. The following initiatives have been proposed: incorporating a valuebased civilizational approach as a methodological and axiological basis in strategic documents defining the directions of family policy in the Russian Federation; supplementing paragraph 3 of Article 1 of the Family Code of the Russian Federation with principles expressing traditional values; enshrining the priority of protecting traditional family values in the conceptual foundations of family legislation; implementing a digital content certification system for children based on traditional values, designed to protect the younger generation from destructive information influences; and creating a mechanism for interdepartmental coordination of government bodies in the sphere of family policy and education, ensuring the coordinated promotion of values in the regulatory framework for the family.

Conclusions. Strengthening the traditional foundations of family law through a value-based civilizational approach will contribute to the consolidation of society, the protection of the interests of family and children, as well as the implementation of strategic national priorities in the demographic and socio-moral spheres. The results obtained can be used to improve legislation on family and information security of children, and to form a state family policy based on the spiritual and moral values of Russian society.
