Religion-state relations in Russia in the focus of a systemic approach

The article presents a system research of religious-state relations in Russian society. A system approach allows us to identify the interaction between the two elements of these relations: the state and religious organizations. These elements have a mutual influence on each other, in addition, the system is under the impact of both an external factor and an internal one. Religious-state relations have three levels: conceptual, legislative, administrative. The model of religious-state relations implemented in Russian society is cooperative, its features are also manifested at the regional level. We believe that today the symphonic model of religious-state relations continues to exist, which takes its origin back to the 10th century, but has acquired various modifications in the context of modern realities.
