THE DEVELOPMENT OF THE IDEA OF THE LAW OF THE SOCIAL STATE IN RUSSIAN JURISPRUDENCE

The article is devoted to the consideration of the peculiarities of the interpretation of the idea of the law of the social state in Russian jurisprudence. The main idea of the author is that the understanding of the law of the welfare state in Russian legal science was formed under the influence of Western legal thought, but at the same time, in the context of the Russian political and legal tradition, it acquired specific features. The author identifies three main historical periods of formation and development of the idea of the right of the welfare state: pre-revolutionary, Soviet and post-Soviet. Each of these periods is characterized by unique socio-economic and political conditions that influenced the formation and development of the concept of the welfare State and the idea of the right of the welfare State.
