Идея исторического в Логосе права
The Idea of the Historicism in the Logos of Law

Summary/Abstract: In 2019 in Moscow and in 2021 in London, a monograph was published by famous Russian scholars S.I. Zakhartseva, D.V. Maslennikov and V.P. Salnikov: Logos of Law: Parmenides — Hegel — Dostoevsky. On the Speculative and Logical Foundations of the Metaphysics of Law. This article analyzes the idea of historical law in the Logos, which is being developed by the authors of the monograph. In essence, they pose a problem that clearly goes beyond the ongoing discussion for a long period of sovereignty. The authors, interpreting Hegel’s historicism in law in the context of the entire historical and philosophical tradition from Parmenides to Dostoevsky, offer a new look at the idea of the historical in the doctrine of law, state and sovereignty and make an attempt to develop a sovereign Russian philosophy of law. In their numerous publications over recent years, Zakhartsev, Maslennikov and Salnikov see the theoretical and methodological foundation for the development of a sovereign Russian philosophy of law. In parallel, Zakhartsev and Salnikov develop the foundations of their original concept of the comprehensive theory of law, which is an attempt to synthesize the constructive content of various theoretical systems that describe legal phenomena.
