Abstract
Institutions designed to further protection of constitutional rights of the citizens play a special role in the modern civil society. Last decades have demonstrated a significant growth of role of non-commercial organizations in human rights activities in conditions of civil society formation in Russia. At the same time, study of the role of such subjects as advocacy and trade unions in the sphere of protection of constitutional rights of the Russian citizens is not fully reflected in the legal science. But it seems that these institutions have enough potential and resources in the sphere of rights’ protection: advocacy, primarily in the frameworks of realization of free legal assistance, and trade unions in the sphere of protection and assertion of labor rights of the citizens. The authors analyzed acting Russian law and scientific doctrine, on the basis of which offers are developed to elevate the status and role of advocacy and trade unions in the sphere of constitutional rights’ protection.
