Abstract

The article presents an analysis of trends in the development of modern Russian legislation on freedom of conscience and religion. Adoption of the Federal Law No. 374-FZ “On Amendments to the Federal Law on Countering Terrorism and Certain Legislative Acts of the Russian Federation Regarding the Establishment of Additional Measures to Counter Terrorism and Ensure Public Security” has changed the existing legislation related to the issues of terrorism and extremism. According to a number of scholars, the main trends are due to the expansion of state oversight functions in the sphere of religious freedom and the increasing missionary practice. Analyzing the amendments made to the Federal Law No. 125-FZ “On Freedom of Conscience and Religious Associations,” the author believes that the changes introduced into the legislation do not hinder the exercise of freedom of conscience and religion. The implementation of restrictive policies depends not only on the legal norm, but also on the qualifications of law enforcement agencies authorized to implement this policy.
