Abstract
The author of the article points out that Russia has been traditionally a unitarian state and even in the Soviet period, notwithstanding her name as officially formulated, was not a federation. The attempt, as fixed in the Constitution of 1993, to establish federative state arrangement led to the emergence of a phenomenon which the author styles feudal federalism. What Russia needs while consolidating and perfecting centralized government, is to simultaneously develop local government and national-cultural autonomies.
