Abstract

Research relevance. The article is devoted to the charters of municipal entities, which are considered acts of supreme legal power in the system of municipal legal acts. In this regard, the author analyzes the "system of municipal legal acts" and "act of higher legal force" concepts, projecting their features onto the charters of the city of Ekaterinburg, adopted respectively in 1995 and 2005. The article provides the author's classification of the system of municipal legal acts. The methodological basis of the study stems from the research subject. The formal-legal method of cognition contributed to analyzing the legislative norms regulating the system of municipal legal acts. The examination of the little-known pages of history related to the preparation and adoption of the charters of Ekaterinburg in 1995 and 2003 would have been impossible without the use of the historical and legal method. Comparison of the statutory norms of Ekaterinburg in their statics and dynamics provided for the use of a comparative legal method of analysis. Research results and conclusions. The current charter of Ekaterinburg of 2005 is a completely independent legal document and hence, is not a "revised version" of the 1995 charter, as was commonly believed the first time after its adoption. It is fundamentally different in its performance from its predecessor, the city charter of 1995. Over the time, even those continuity features, which previously seemed unbreakable, have undergone changes: a three-member structure of municipal power (Head - Duma - Administration; majoritarian system of electing the Head of the city and deputies of the City Duma). The author analyzed the key changes and amendments introduced to the city charter at different times, the reasons for those. The article states that the charter of any municipal entity, as an act of supreme legal power, carries out the mission of a legal regulator of various municipal legal relations, serves as a source of other municipal legal acts, guarantees the implementation of certain civil rights, primarily in the field of municipal affairs management by citizens.
