Restriction of the Rights of Citizens to Achieve the Economic Security of the Territory

Abstract

Restriction of the rights of citizens is one of the tools to achieve national security of the territory. This work is aimed at analyzing the readiness of citizens to limit their rights to ensure economic security and taking into account this readiness by the authorities. As an object, the right to receive insurance old-age pension in the Russian Federation was chosen. The choice of this right is due to the demographic aging of the population in all macro-regions of the world and the almost universal increase in the retirement age. The main sources of data were statistical databases of the Federal State Statistics Service of the Russian Federation, as well as the results of sociological surveys conducted by public opinion centers and the Institute of Economics of the Karelian Research Center of the Russian Academy of Sciences. Data analysis was carried out using the case study method and econometric methods, in particular, panel and correlation analysis. The study showed that the willingness of a significant proportion of Russians to limit civil rights does not extend to the right to receive an old-age insurance pension. At the same time, the authorities poorly took into account the unreadiness of citizens to raise the retirement age. At the same time, the advantages and disadvantages of limiting the right to insurance old-age pensions make the formation of a “smart security” model for the territory, which involves a combination of soft and hard forces, topical.
