Abstract

A significant increase in regulatory activities throughout the world requires the development of a harmonized legal framework with the aim of protecting consumer rights, increasing the transparency of entrepreneurs, maintaining healthy competition, and protecting confidential information. The paper presents the author’s view on the model of legal regulation of digital platforms in Russia. The five structural elements of the system of Russian legislation that are to be fixed in the rules of law are indicated. The authors have developed three theories of the features of the functioning of digital platforms, i.e. the theory of control and data management, the theory of the gratuitousness of the services of digital platforms, and the theory of competition of digital platforms, which should be put into the antitrust doctrine. It is confirmed that some countries have begun lawmaking activities to improve legislation but only in some areas. The conclusion is drawn on the formation of a single concept of legal regulation of digital platforms in Russia.
