Abstract

The purpose of the research. The work focuses on the study of evolutionary processes that affected the system of consultative (advisory) bodies operating under the President of the Russian Federation. The study examines the historical determinacy of the formation of these bodies, and also provides an analytical assessment of their functional structure and role during the formation of the institution of the presidency in Russia. Particular attention is paid to identifying the specific characteristics inherent in consultative (advisory) bodies in the early stages of their development. The transformation and abolition of consultative (advisory) structures also occupy an important place in the study, since changes in the political situation often lead to the need to revise existing institutions of power.

Results. The study concluded that in the context of globalization and rapid development of information technology, the role of consultative (advisory) structures is becoming increasingly important, as they contribute to the adaptation of public policy to modern challenges and requirements. It was found that consultative (advisory) bodies not only contribute to more effective governance, but also serve as a channel for taking into account the opinion of civil society, which in turn increases the legitimacy of power. There is also an obvious need to improve the efficiency of the system of consultative (advisory) bodies, in particular, improving feedback between government bodies and all participants in the process could significantly increase the level of implementation of the proposed initiatives. In this regard, the creation of open platforms on which the results of the work of consultative (advisory) bodies will be discussed, as well as recommendations for their optimization will be developed, can become an important stage in their subsequent evolution.
