Description
Summary:The book discusses the most relevant and pressing legal issues amidst their historical and socio-cultural background. Noting the increasing role of the law in socio-normative system of contemporary society the author introduces the notion of "civilization of law" or "legal civilization." He uses these notions to analyse the mission of law in times of global change and ever-increasing role of law in the flght against chaos and new barbarity. Basic legal principles of the law of modernism that predefine the key areas of ourcountry's constitutional and legal development— equality of all people before the law and the court principle of priority of human rights and rule of lawful act of legislation — are reviewed through the prism of previous attempts to reform the Russian law and justice. Special attention is given to the analysis of the effect of socio-cultural factors on Russian legal modernization. The author defends the idea that general trends and Russia's socio-cultural specificity need to be taken into account while it is entering the global framework of modern civilization of law. The book is intended for lawyers philosophers political analysts social scientists as well as wider audience.
