Abstract
In A.P. Lyubinov’s textbook, the explanation of the philosophy of law is based on worldview and theoretical principles and program requirements. The educational material leads readers to the study of the philosophy of law as a self-sufficient scientific and educational discipline, which is not solely the product of some logical conclusions of theoreticians who connected fragments of philosophy and law. The philosophy of law, comprising a philosophical understanding of the essence of law, the reasons for its occurrence and its connection with other phenomena of spiritual life, the study of the comparability of formulated codified legal provisions with the ideas and values underlying them, is an organic continuation of the traditions of philosophical and legal research of the Classical Period and Western Europe of the end 18th – middle of the 19th centuries. All these issues are presented in this textbook in a very detailed, critical and comprehensive manner.
