Summary/Abstract: This report sets out and defends the understanding that the development of the legal sciences has until recently been extensive and based on the classical dogmatic approach to law, but that the time has come to unfold new horizons for legal scholars to bring to remarkable progress in jurisprudence, to its intensive development and to the revelation of the internal regularities in the development of the legal phenomenon. Awareness of the deep connection between the development of all scientific knowledge and the development of the legal sciences, as well as the creation of a legal theory that is as close as possible to the scientific ideal is the pathos of this work. This, of course, requires the formation of a new legal methodology to support the application of the interdisciplinary approach in legal research and to direct researchers in the field of legal research to the development of interdisciplinary legal sciences. Only a methodology of law, which derives from the overall development of scientific knowledge and which is based on the general methodology of science, which is the subject of management of systemically integrated scientific knowledge, which manifests itself in both static and dynamic form, will meet the high modern requirements for scientific methodology. The constant process of growth of the conceptual apparatus of science and of multiplication and deepening of scientific hypotheses and theories is characteristic of all modern sciences, including legal ones. The formation of a modern legal methodology, which is a product of the Cultural Paradigm of the New Age (CPNA) and is oriented towards the synthesis of scientific knowledge and the interdisciplinary research characteristic of the synthetic approach, will inevitably lead to reformatting the legal theory and building a new Desacralizing theory of law (and the state).
