Abstract

We present the study of the general scientific phenomenon of anticulture as a slice of social life and its reflection in the context of legal matter. The study of anticultural manifestations in the subject plane of modern Russian law-making, which are negative legal trends that affect the national legal life of society. We consider anticultural manifestations in law-making as the antithesis of the law-making culture, while attention is drawn to the dichotomy of the concepts of law-making culture and anticulture. Anticultural beginning in lawmaking is characterized as a negative trend of modern law-making. We outline the actual problem of these negative phenomena minimization (leveling), which in general can affect the quality and effectiveness of law-making. We carry out the analysis of law-making culture categories interrelation and anticulture by means of disclosure of essential characteristics of these concepts. The aim is to identify anticultural manifestations in law-making and develop measures to combat them. We apply methods of analysis, comparison, synthesis, modeling, and system research; also we present and characterize a number of anti-cultural manifestations in modern Russian law-making. In conclusion, we note that anticultural manifestations in law-making create prerequisites for the strengthening of negative phenomena in the national legal life that can affect its sustainable development, and therefore it is necessary to purposefully solve the problem of improving the culture of modern Russian law-making.
