Abstract

The purpose of the study is to apply the theory of constitutionalization to the object of party legal relations. This will make it possible to distinguish it from the subject of regulation of party law. The author used a set of methodological approaches: formal-logical and hermeneutic methods allowed us to analyze the current norms of legislation and establish their meaning; the provisions of institutional theory were used to assess modern scientific views on the place of party law in the system of Russian law. Conclusions: the object of party legal relations is a united collective interest formed by members of political parties. This interest is realized in the forms provided for by law and is focused on three key tasks: the formation of public opinion, the conduct of political propaganda and the participation of citizens in the political system. The object can be recognized as the primary constitutional condition for designating party rights and obligations, which distinguishes it from the object of legal regulation of non-party public structures. The object is a form of expression of citizens' preferences in various areas that require political intervention.
