Russian State Policy in the field of Spiritual and Moral Education

The paper elucidates the development of state policy on spiritual and moral education in the Russian Federation and its influence on the formation of the state ideology. Constant changes taking place in various spheres of international and national relations contribute to the transformation of society, restructuring and formation of new ideals and values, and in some cases, they lead to dissension in the society. State policy in the field of spiritual and moral education should contribute to strengthening the moral and ethical foundations of society. It should help form a strong civil society whose activities are aimed at preserving cultural heritage. At the same time, in the context of a multinational state where different peoples have their own history and traditions, spiritual and moral education should not only strengthen the unity of society but also preserve the historical and cultural characteristics of all peoples. Largely, the moral and ethical ideals of society are shaped by the historical, political, and cultural development of the country and society. Therefore, the modern legislative framework should be formed based on the existing trends in the socio-cultural sphere. The study of contemporary challenges and problems is most valuable for legal research. Thus, it becomes possible to develop legal regulation and ensure that the legal system meets the current needs of society. Measures aimed at implementing state policy can be implemented only after the foundations of legal regulation are formed.
