Abstract

The review сlaims that although the social nature of the Russian state is enshrined in the Constitution of the Russian Federation and therefore represents a significant institutional fact, the social state has not yet become a reality in many areas of Russian society. There are differences in approaches to the interpretation of the social state among philosophers and economists, although the views of the latter, especially those in favor of “ethical economics”, are moving closer to a broader philosophical approach. It is argued that building both a social state and a qualitatively new system of national security requires a new approach to the hierarchy of priorities for this security.
