Theoretical aspects of the implementation of the constitutional rights of citizens to quality food and a decent standard of living (history and modernity)

The article considers the constitutional rights of citizens to quality food and a decent standard of living. The article examines international legal documents that confirm the position of eradicating hunger by providing the population with access to the necessary food. The experience of interaction between the Caspian countries and the Customs Union of the EAEU was studied. It is shown that the geopolitical situation in the world requires adjustments and rethinking of approaches to ensuring Russia's food independence. The policy of our country's leadership on import substitution, as a chance to restore production capacity in all sectors of the economy, not only in the agro-industrial complex, was supported. The problems of reforms (1861; 1906; 1920-30-ies; 1990-ies) in the agrarian sphere of our country, they were not brought to a logical end, and at present the restoration of agriculture in pre-reform volumes means the revival of the almost lost peasantry as a class. Based on the analysis, it is shown that the realization of the right of the population to adequate food contributes to solving problems of health, education and working capacity. It is recommended to increase the production of agricultural raw materials and food, in parallel to integrate into the world food market from the position of food exporters.
