Preservation and Strengthening of the Value and Ideological Foundations of Contemporary Russian Legal Science

The author emphasizes the importance of scientific jurisprudence in legal consciousness formation and strengthening the legitimacy of the legal order in Russia within the context of constitutional transformation and a changing socio-historical environment across the country. As the rigid separation of politics, ideology, and jurisprudence comes under criticism, it is argued that law is interconnected with social attitudes and cannot be purely non-ideological. Additionally, the risks associated with the arbitrary borrowing of foreign ideas and applying them in Russian scientific jurisprudence are discussed, such as human rights concepts and legal globalization methods. The need to create an independent system of legal ideals based on national traditions and values is emphasized. In this regard, scientific jurisprudence lags behind practical needs and the dominance of a template-schematic approach. The author comes to the conclusion that it is important to intensify the efforts that seek to strengthen the role of Russian constitutional law in the educational process, for students of law as well as students of other disciplines.
