Abstract
The concept of protecting the Fatherland, which is complex in its constitutional and legal nature and synthesizes many state-forming principles, has become the subject of historical, legal, and philosophical scientific research in recent years. The relevance of the research is predetermined by the adoption of a Presidential Decree declaring 2025 the Year of Defender of the Fatherland in order to preserve historical memory, in commemoration of the 80th anniversary of Victory in the Great Patriotic War of 1941–1945, in gratitude to veterans and recognizing the feat of participants in a special military operation. The article examines the reflection in the constitutional priorities of the importance of ensuring guarantees for the protection of the independence and security of our country, patriotism, and the continuity of generations. The guarantees of the protection of the constitutional order, independence and security of the Russian state are being considered. The article analyzes the constitutional provisions that determine the importance of preserving historical memory, on which relationships between individuals, society, and the state are based in modern Russia.
