Abstract

The article is devoted to certain issues of transformation of the mechanism of realization of the public power in a digital society. The author draws attention to the fact that the digitalization of public power seriously corrects the relationship between a person, society and the state. This will affect the constitutional and legal status of a person in the digital dimension. The formation of the digital economy will change the architecture of social and labor relations, determining the need to find a new point of balance in society that ensures the achievement of social compromise and the preservation of the integrity of the state. In addition, the author believes that modern digital technologies open up new opportunities in the implementation of certain state-legal institutions. This fully applies to the institution of elections. However, the article expresses some concern that new technologies, if applied to established institutions of public power, may devalue the constitutional and legal values and principles they protect. Based on this, the author comes to the conclusion that it is necessary to start a constitutional and legal discussion about the limits of the use of new technologies in the sphere of public power.
