Abstract

This study focuses on the historical evolution and current state of the anticorruption system in the Russian Federation. The aim of the study is a comprehensive historical and legal analysis of the genesis and transformation of anti-corruption strategies to identify persistent patterns and assess the effectiveness of the legal instruments employed. The methodological framework includes comparative legal and institutional analysis, complemented by a historical retrospective, enabling a multifaceted approach to the problem. The study found that Russian anticorruption policy is characterized by cyclical development with persistent systemic dysfunctions. Persistent problems were identified: the prevalence of a repressive paradigm over a preventive one, selectivity in the application of legal norms, and the formalization of preventive mechanisms. The key factor limiting effectiveness was identified as the institutional isolation of control and oversight mechanisms within the administrative system. The findings substantiate the need to shift from improving individual regulations to overcoming systemic limitations by ensuring the genuine independence of the judiciary, implementing transparent decision-making procedures, and developing institutions of civilian oversight. The practical significance of this study lies in the potential application of its findings in lawmaking, public administration, and further research in public policy.
