The first major legal change of the substance in Russia's largely feudal state in a capitalist direction was the Imperial manifesto of 1961 abolishing serfdom, the second is the 1905 revolution and the basic laws of 1906, and the basic laws of 1906 were enshrined some of the personal and political rights of a constitutional nature, the State Duma as the body partly similar to Parliament was created, but large feudal elements in essence and content of state survived, and in political system and the form of the state were dominated. While maintaining basically the former essence changes in the content and form of the Russian State were introduced by the February revolution, 1917, when in the midst of anarchy (monarch abdicated, heirs refused) 2 (15) March 1917 by agreement between the Temporary committee of The State Duma and the Executive Committee of the newly created from "bottom" of the Petrograd workers and soldiers deputies soviet established a Provisional Government, as an organ of legislative and executive powers. By its ruling the Provisional Government changed the form of governing in Russia. The state became a Republic. The ensuing revolution 25 October (7 november) 1917. was totalitarian-socialist in nature. It has fundamentally changed the essence, content and form of the Russian state. In was created a Socialist in type, totalitarian-socialist in content not in the form of the democratic republic (Engels) and in the form of the Republic declared by the Republic of Soviets (council) first, RSFSR, USSR then. In fact, the soviets were a tool of Communist Party (CPSU), which according to the constitutions for forever was declared the party's leadership, became organs of the party-state nomenclature, Antitotalitarian revolution at the turn of the 80-90-ies of the XX centure after the collapse of the Soviet Union in 1991 definitively changed the essence, content and form of the Russian state. But for genuine socialism time apparently did not come, though it should be pursued. This requires objective data: much more highly developed productive forces (including science), an other society, other methods of distribution of the social product and, more importantly, other persons (men and women). Apparently. at this stage of development of the mankind possible more developed social systems is a social-democratic capitalism, with some elements of socialism in the form of a social-democratic republic that includes former (including some soviet) and new institutions direct direct popular democracy provided by the modern developments of science and technology.
