The article explores the theoretical and legal problems of the development of the Constitution of the Russian Federation. The existence, in the practice of constitutional construction of the Russian Federation, of the transformation of constitutional norms as a transformation of their content or the content of constitutional and legal institutions without formal amendments to the text of the Russian Constitution is argued. The characteristic features of the transformation that distinguish it from other ways of developing the Constitution are revealed. The methods of the conversion of con­stitutional norms used in the practice of Russian constitutionalism are investigated.
