In: Journal of politics and law: JPL, Band 12, Heft 5, S. 129

Abstract

This article points out and addresses problematic issues related to the nature of the legal culture, legal worldview, and legal awareness of legal entities. Within the framework of the philosophical-legal and cultural discourse, the authors of the study reveal the existing “semantic layers” regarding the essence of legal culture, its structure and manifestations, as well as the determining influence on the content of the legal world outlook, methods (forms) and results of dissemination of legal information. The article involves theoretical and methodological aspects of studying the national legal culture and legal consciousness, developed by various representatives of the Russian classical legal and philosophical-legal schools (I.A. Iliin, N.S. Trubetskoi, N.N. Alekseev and others).
