International legal regulation and problems of domestic legal regulation of linguistic legal relations

The article contains an analytical review of international legal documents regulating linguistic legal relations in the world and the problems of their legal regulation in Russia. The question of socio-political importance of the language policy of the state in a globalizing world is also investigated. Attention is drawn to the lack of proper legal regulation of linguistic legal relations in modern Russia, which was the fundamental reason for the announcement of 2019 - the Year of languages of the Russian Federation. The main attention is paid to those activities that need to be developed at the present time, taking into account the new organizational and legal opportunities associated with the creation of a new Ministry of Education of the Russian Federation.It is concluded that the main means of achieving an optimal balance between language groups in terms of linguistic security is the development of bilingual education on the basis of a well-developed system of legislation that provides a clear and understandable mechanism of legal regulation of linguistic legal relations. The improvement of the system of teaching the Russian language in the educational institutions of the republics that are part of Russia should be carried out exclusively taking into account regional and ethno-cultural peculiarities.
