The strategic planning is viewed as a governing and legal instrument which for several decades has been used in Russian to ensure a comprehensive and coordinated approach of the governmental agencies addressing socioeconomic and cultural indigenous issues. The analysis shows that the strategic planning documents have a complex legal structure and can be employed as informational and ideological instrument derived from existing legislation on indigenous peoples. They do not and should not contain regulatory prescriptions, but are intended to provide guidance for improving legal regulation and law enforcement.</p></abstract><kwd-group xml:lang="en"><kwd>Russian Federation</kwd><kwd>strategic planning documents</kwd><kwd>indigenous peoples of the North</kwd><kwd>legislation on indigenous peoples</kwd><kwd>decrees</kwd><kwd>federal programs</kwd><kwd>concepts on the development of indigenous peoples</kwd></kwd-group></article-meta></front><back><ref-list><title>References</title><ref id="cit1"><label>1</label><citation-alternatives><mixed-citation xml:lang="ru">Alekseev, S.
