This book addresses the increased role and standing of international law in the Russian legal system through analysis of judicial practice since the adoption of the Russian Constitution in 1993. The issue of interaction and hierarchy between international and domestic law within the Russian Federation is studied, combining theoretical, legal and institutional elements.
Sergey Marochkin explores how methods for incorporating and implementing international law (or reasons for failing to do so) have changed over time, influenced by internal and global policy. The final sections of the book are the most illustrative, examining how 'the rule of law’ remains subordinate to ‘the rule of politics’, both at the domestic and global level.

"Marochkin has produced an admirable treatise which will deserve the attention of international and comparative lawyers." - W.E. Butler, in: Journal of Comparative Law, XIV (2019)
"Being deep in content and possessing qualitative analysis of legal material, this book raises the bar for the research of the interrelation between international and domestic law to practically unattainable heights. Most importantly, this treatise introduces these developments to numerous English-speaking readers and aims to bring together a scattered and divided academical community." - Maksim Likhachev and Yury Bezborodov, in: Beijing Law Review, 2019, 10, pp. 474-479
"[This] Monograph of S. Marochkin draws up a new direction in modern legal science - the theory of the constitutional foundations of international law domestic implementation, expands the field of scientific knowledge of legal reality, enriches the theory of state and law, international, constitutional, civil, conflict law, legal science in general." - Prof. V.O. Luchin, Prof. T.M. Pryakhina
"Das Buch von Marochkin behandelt also ein in der Rechtswissenschaft (mit gutem Grund) ausgesprochen aktuelles Thema. Marochkin ist ein für den westlichen Leser ausgesprochen nützliches Buch gelungen. (….) Für einen der russischen Sprache nicht mächtigen Juristen oder sonst an Russland interessierten Leser ist die Rezeption, Funktion und Wirkungsweise des Völkerrechts in Russland und im russischen Recht erschließbar geworden." - Prof. Alexander Blankenagel, in: ZAORV 79, 2019, pp. 1038-1045
"The monograph ... allows the foreign reader to grasp the theoretical concepts, official positions, and actions of the Russian Federation in the implementation of its international obligations within the domestic legal system and the resulting scientific and practical problems." - Prof. W. Butler and Assistant Prof. V. Ivanenko, in: Pravovedenie 62/4 (2019), pp. 792–802
"We recommend this book to those who are interested in Russian legal science, behavior patterns of Russia in performing its international obligations and its attitude towards international law in general." - V. Gavrilov, R. Nurimbetov, in: Chinese Journal of International Law, issue 3 (2020)
"This book is a major development in academic thought on the application of international law to domestic legal systems and is a must-read for practitioners in domestic judicial organs or international institutions, scholars and young researchers." - Anna Kondratyuk, "The Operation of International Law in the Russian Legal System. A Changing Approach", in: Europe-Asia Studies 72:2 (2020), 336-337 [DOI: 10.1080/09668136.2020.1725295]
"Marochkin’s study on the role of international law in the Russian legal system, indeed, is an important and timely one, and is carried out – which is more relevant – in a competent manner and with impeccable scientific accuracy. " - Daniele Amoroso, in Italian Yearbook of International Law, Volume XXIX (2019)
"The monograph consistently exposes the author's idea about the essence of national implementation of the principles and norms of international law, domestic legal and institutional mechanisms for such implementation, assessment and generalization of the practice of Russian courts related to the appeal to international law and the application of international legal norms." - Kapustin A. Ya., Zhuravleva I.P., in: Moscow Journal of International Law 2020. No.1
"..a detailed and thus valuable source for all those who discovered their lust for Russia’s approach towards international law amid Russia’s increased assertiveness on the geopolitical stage." - Ralph Janik, in Review of Central and East European Law, Vol. 46 (2021, pp 303-305)
