Over the past few years, the subject of metaverses has become an object of research of scientists from various fields of knowledge. Most specialists believe that in the next 7–10 years the direction of metaverses will be integrated into many spheres of society. The issue does not remain without attention of the state. Today we observe the first stages of formation of the international «metaverses race» in order to strengthen the leading positions of countries in terms of digital transformation of the economy and ensuring their own digital sovereignty. Russia will soon become a participant in the race mentioned. The development of metaverses will inevitably lead to the transformation of many legal institutions. Therefore today Russian scholars are beginning to explore questions about the symbiosis of law and metaverses. Since the interest to the regulation of the metaverses sphere will increase, it seems right to conduct a comprehensive study of the works of Russian explorers devoted to the transformation of legal relations in the conditions of emerging metaverses. The aim of the research presented: to systematize the Russian legal literature on the subject, to identify the most relevant aspects of regulation in the field, to form a general research trend in the development of law in metaverses, as well as to discover the first research conflicts. The selection of academic papers was based on two interrelated methods: substantive and personal. The use of the first method helped to identify only those studies that are devoted exclusively to the subject. On this basis, the review did not include those acadeniic works that only indirectly address the issue of metaverses. Thanks to the second method, it was possible to exclude studies by scholars from related sciences and student papers too. In this regard, attention is paid mainly to the studies of authors who have a scholar degree and/or extensive practical experience. In addition, the methodology is formed by general methods of study: analysis, synthesis, generalization and others. As a result of the work carried out, its purpose has been fully achieved and the most important key aspects are reflected using graphic illustrations.

The paper dwells on theoretical foundations and methodological significance of communicative constitutionalism, provides an academic basis for constitutional communication in the public legal space, shows the problems of constitutional law nature arising in the information society. Communicative constitutionalism and digital citizenship are considered as hybrid institutions in the field of public law and information space. The author draws attention to the nature and significance of the institute of public participation or the institute of public participation in the public law area, various forms of its manifestation, notes the process of institutionalization of constitutional law as the law of society and public interests based on the research of domestic and foreign scholars The paper explains the public law nature of communicative constitutionalism, the complex nature and transformation of citizenship as a public law and as an information-digital entity. As a conclusion, it is noted that there is a fragmentation and dispersion of legal regulation and institutional design of institutions of public initiatives, public discussions and the identification of public opinion concerning publicly significant issues, draft regulatory legal acts, and constitutional amendments. There is no institution of scientific expertise guaranteed by constitutional legislation along with public discussion.In the order of legal scientific initiatives the author proposes to: 1) incorporate into the legislation the principle of scientific federalism and public participation in the development of draft amendments to the Constitution of the Russian Federation and the draft of a new Constitution; 2) consolidate at the legislative or constitutional law level the obligation of subjects of the initiative to revise the Constitution and constitutional amendments to send draft amendments submitted to the State Duma, to the leading universities of the country, research institutes of the Russian Academy of Sciences in order to conduct discussions and adopt conclusions; 3) create legislative guarantees to attract citizens through Internet technologies to discuss the content of amendments to the Constitution, the draft of a new Constitution, including the right to propose revisions of certain norms
The local self-government reform in Russia in recent decades has gradually diverted this institution from the essence of its creation, embedding it in the vertical of state power under the image of public power. The 2020 constitutional amendments have only accelerated this process. The paper attempts to substantiate the need to preserve municipal power in the form that it was originally inherent in, being a prototype of the theory of a free community or at least dualism. The paper is based on the theoretical advances of scientists and the author’s insights, as well as on a number of issues of local importance, including land, tax, urban planning and other public relations. The author has attempted to show the need for local self-government at the present time, if the necessary vector of development is given to it by organizational and legal means. The increasingly expanding practice of delegating state powers and the introduction of a single-level system of territorial organization of municipalities plays a negative role in the issue under consideration. In order to overcome problematic trends, it is proposed to implement the existing institutions of municipal law in a new way, which will give positive results and for which there is a real demand from the population. Thus, people are reluctant to participate in various events related to mandatory face-to-face attendance, but actively vote for options for improving public space, do not want to be deputies of rural settlements, but help each other in difficult situations and go out on clean-up days, etc. The subsequent transformation of local self-government should be based on the needs of citizens, not the state.
