Through analysis of judicial practice since the adoption of the Russian Constitution in 1993, this book addresses the increased role and standing of international law in the Russian legal system and combines theoretical, legal and institutional elements into its study. The issue of interaction and hierarchy between international and domestic law within the Russian Federation is raised throughout, and author Sergey Marochkin explores how methods for incorporating and implementing international law (or reasons for failing to do so) have changed over time, influenced by internal and global policy. The last sections of the book are the most illustrative in this sense, examining how 'the rule of law’ remains subordinate to ‘the rule of politics’, both at the domestic and global level.
