In the presented work, not only specific representatives of the political opposition in Russia are considered, but also a number of factors describing their current state are studied. The author examines the political phenomenon of the opposition: the concept and essence, the factors that influenced the evolutionary nature of its formation, and also analyzes the opposition as a mechanism of political pluralism. The main approaches to the assessment of the opposition, three stages of comprehension are also presented, scientific approaches to the definition of this term are studied. An attempt has been made to solve an important scientific problem related to the analysis of the correlation of the types of opposition in Russia and its possible role in the short- and medium-term development of the political system of our country.
