The purpose of the study is to identify the interdependency between the constitutional reform and changes in social institutions and to propose directions for the development of new constitutional provisions in the legislation of the Russian Federation. Materials and methods. The methodological instrumentarium is chosen taking into account the specific goals of the work. The dialectical-materialistic method of cognition made it possible to study the subject in development, in interrelation of all its individual manifestations and in interaction with related phenomena, to substantiate the advantages and disadvantages of various approaches to solving this issue. The methods of formal logic: description, comparison, analysis and synthesis made it possible to reveal and characterize in detail the legal, moral, ethical and other aspects of constitutional and legal transformations. The use of specific scientific methods of cognition: comparative legal, formal legal, statistical, structural and functional – made it possible to explore the problem under consideration in interrelations and interdependence, to identify certain trends, to make generalizations and conclusions. Study results. The relevance of the research topic is determined by the need to legally consolidate traditional Russian values and worldview guidelines, to preserve and pass the Russian civilizational code for future generations in conditions of a changing world order and defending the idea of a multipolar world. The Constitution of the Russian Federation, as amended in 2020, became the result of transformations in social institutions and the program for the development of the Russian society and the state for the future. The constitutional doctrine is evaluated in retrospect, the prerequisites for the 2020 constitutional reform are assessed, and its first results are analyzed. New constitutional and legal norms and their development in the legislation of the Russian Federation are analyzed, comparative legal characteristics of individual constitutional and legal novelties are given, and their importance in the system of constitutional and legal regulation of public relations is substantiated. Conclusions. The author comes to the conclusion about the public demand for the constitutional consolidation of institutional changes that have taken place and consolidated in the Russian society in the last three decades of constitutional development.
