On the main tasks of modern Russian jurisprudence

Abstract

Issues of academic jurisprudence are at the core of socio-governmental development. Law serves as a universal regulator, a crucial consolidating force for society, anchoring it on the foundation of shared ideals, mutual trust, and dialogue. The state of all spheres of social relations depends on the quality of legal regulation and its scientific validity. Ensuring Russia’s sovereignty and the well-being of its citizens, and the formation of a just, multipolar world, require a serious rethinking of the values, methodology, and paradigm of legal thinking. According to the author, this should be based, first and foremost, on a clear understanding of the socio-cultural and moral determinacy of law, embracing its transformative properties while building on traditions inherited from ancestors. The article concludes that patriotism, state and legal continuity, and constitutional dialogue should be considered the most significant categories for updating Russian legal methodology. Priorities for Russian academic and academic jurisprudence are identified.
