Annotation The article analyzes the socio-political preferences in the system of population life values based on the results of regional studies using the national region of the Republic of Tuva as an example. The object of the study is life values of the population of the Republic of Tuva. The purpose of the research article is to identify the main parameters of socio-political preferences in the system of population life values of Tuva, which influence the regional system stability of power. In accordance with the stated goal, the following tasks have been defined: to review publications on the problems of population life values of the constituent entities of the Federation and the Republic of Tuva, to compare the population main expectations and the assessment of the activities results of the head of the region V. T. Khovalyg on the example of regional studies of the authors’ staff over the past three years, to identify priorities in the system of population socio-political preferences and to show their influence on the regional system stability of government. The methodological basis of the article is formed by the normative-value, comparative and political-cultural approaches, as well as the method of qualitative analysis – the focus group method. A review of scientific research on the issues of life values of Tuvan society shows a significant bias towards considering traditional values determined by historical, ethnic, consanguineous features and family traditions of the Tuvans. As a result, issues of life values of the Tuvans from the position of assessing the socio-political course implemented by the regional elite remain virtually unexplored. It has been revealed that, in general, over the past three years, the region has seen positive dynamics in assessing the work of government bodies in implementing the vital socio-economic values of the population. At the same time, the issues of political values are of much less interest to the Tuvin society than socio-economic ones, which emphasizes the very indirect nature of the population’s “involvement” in politics and the concentration of attention on everyday issues. As a result, a high level of trust in regional and federal authorities ensures the legitimacy and stability of the entire vertical of regional power in the Republic of Tuva.
