A New Perspective on the Concept of Legal Regulation of Relations in the Area of Genetic Technologies in the Russian Federation

Abstract
The article attempts to define the concept of legal regulation of relations in the area of genetic technologies. The different models of legal regulation are used as a basis. Priority is given by the authors to the two-level model of legislation. This model consists of one Federal framework law, the provisions of which are supplemented by a group of special legislative acts which regulate certain aspects of genetic technologies. The authors present arguments in favor of choosing this model, in order to build a legislative system for genetic technologies and they highlight its advantages. The article concludes with a proposal to amend the current Federal Law of 5 July, 1996 No. 86-FZ ‘On State Regulation in the Field of Genetic Engineering’ which may serve as a basis for the development of the two-level model of legislation.
