Type: article
Abstract: The study analyzes the administrative and legal nature of the state control institution through the prism of human rights guarantees. The authors analyze the transformation of the state control activity paradigm in the context of modern axiological priorities of the Russian legal system, focusing on the methodological dualism of the coercive and law-enforcing aspects of control and supervisory functions. Attention is paid to the study of the tools of the domestic institution of the Commissioner for Human Rights as a specific subject of constitutional and legal protection, functioning within the framework of extrajurisdictional procedures. A detailed doctrinal analysis is subjected to the mechanism for implementing the competence and managerial powers of the ombudsman in the system of human rights control. The authors identified and systematized the specific legal forms of control activities of the ombudsman institution, implementing the concept of monitoring compliance with individual rights. The study substantiates the thesis on the preventive and restorative function of human rights control as an element of the mechanism for protecting human and civil rights and freedoms in Russia.
