Региональный уровень правового регулирования экономической деятельности: становление, развитие и перспективы (на примере Татарстана)
Regional Level in Legal Regulation of Economic Activity: Formation, Development, and Prospects (Using Tatarstan as an Example)

Summary/Abstract: An opinion was given regarding the current state and prospects for the development of legal standard setting at the regional level (federal subjects). Various (historical, political, and economic) factors that influenced the regional setting of legal standards were analyzed using the example of the Tatar Autonomous Soviet Socialist Republic (TASSR) and the modern Republic of Tatarstan. When creating the TASSR, as well as other autonomous republics, the main attention was paid to the national form of the new subject. During the Soviet era, the powers of the republic were blurred and not clearly defined. The approach of centralized regulation prevailed, particularly in the economy. As part of the Russian Federation, the powers of regions were defined in the Russian Constitution, but there is still a dispute about the appropriateness of granting certain powers to regions. It seems that the regional level of legal regulation of economic relations in the Republic of Tatarstan is really working and effective. Despite the fact that a tendency to centralized legal regulation has taken place since the early 2000s, the republic shows its ability to independently manage the economy, develop industrial production, and attract investment. All “national” subjects of Russia are called upon to solve two major tasks: supporting the economic advance and ensuring the cultural and social development of the peoples of Russia. The experience of the Republic of Tatarstan has proved that these two tasks can be successfully solved.
