Abstract

In the 21st century the multi-party system of Russia began to face new conditions. The federal law ‘On political parties” was passed on the 21st of June the 2001 and now it forms the basis for the legal environment. The fact that the passing of this bill had been postponed many times is explained by the tendency of the ruling elite to guarantee the pro-president majority at the parliament and approval of the initiatives of the president. The author dwells upon the main principles which serve as a basis for regulating the relations involving political parties.
