The journal "Pravovedenie" invites authors to publish articles in a special issue devoted to the problems of the dogma of public law in the context of post-globalization.
Today we are witnessing a tendency towards the curtailment of globalization, a cosmopolitan project of human integration implemented through the construction of a universal field of meanings. In this regard, each of the global actors faces the task of independently producing meanings to maintain the stability and autonomy of their own domestic order. For Russia, this challenge is all the more ambitious if we take into account that for such political actors as the Western states, China or the Islamic world, the creation of meanings and ways of interpreting key concepts, including legal ones, rests on a solid foundation of continuous traditions, while in Russia, which has experienced a number of fundamental political and legal breakdowns on Throughout the 20th century, traditions do not differ in the same degree of continuity and universal acceptance.
The situation of post-globalization also has certain consequences for public law. The gradual curtailment of the global project of universal public law principles and institutions, which focused on the standards of classical constitutionalism and determined the ways of constructing and interpreting the basic concepts of the science of public law, creates - in the absence of a relevant replacement – risks of uncertainty in the trajectories of the development of public law institutions of the national legal order. The observed processes raise the question of the limits of universality of the dogma of public law, the conceptual apparatus of which was historically formed under the influence of the classical European legal tradition. Is the national dogma of public law possible as a science that, in the current situation of post-globalization, is based on the Russian legal tradition, principles and values of the Russian constitutional order?
The answer to this main question involves discussing the topic in several directions. The problem field is outlined by a wide range of issues – these are historically changing culturally conditioned grounds for distinguishing public and private law, the disciplinary status of the dogma of public law in its relation to other legal sciences - primarily the theory and policy of public law, issues of the conceptual structure of public law dogmatics, its method, functions performed by the dogma of public law in the national the rule of law, the influence of national legal tradition, culture and value system on it. A historical perspective is also possible in the discussion of the topic, first of all, clarifying the genealogy of the concepts of public law dogmatics that make up its basic conceptual apparatus, such as the common good, power, authority, the very concept of public, etc. The identification of the authentic meaning of the relevant concepts for the European legal tradition is necessary for their research in the Russian context: what changes have the key concepts of the dogma of public law undergone during their transfer to the space of Russian culture and their subsequent development, what cultural and legal factors played a fundamental role in the relevant changes?
The deadline for accepting articles for review is May 17, 2024. Articles in Russian and English are accepted.
The invited editor of the issue is Professor Elena Timoshina.
