Commercial Law and Legal Proceedings (Review of the Work by Tarasenko Yuri Alexandrovich “Trading Court” (Bryansk, Avers Publ., 2023. 192 p.)

The review presents the first impressions of the book about the development of the commercial court in Russia. The reviewer not only introduces the reviewed work, but also formulates the current tasks of the science of commercial law, called commercialistics, or commercialistics, in connection with the reform of judicial proceedings. It is proposed to transfer to the competence of the commercial (arbitration) court the consideration of all trade cases, including trade disputes, regardless of the status of an entrepreneur. It is suggested that the existence of commercial law in Russia is confirmed not only by the code of arbitration proceedings, but also by the codification of maritime commercial law. It is proposed to codify the legislation on arbitration proceedings without duplicating the Code of civil procedure and the Code on Administrative proceedings. The reviewer emphasizes that the desire of the political leadership to restore Russian sovereignty ("autocracy") fully determines the desire to study and comprehend the history of the Russian state and law. Evaluating the reviewed textbook as a whole, the reviewer believes that it can later be expanded into a full-fledged monograph if the author of the manual introduces new sources of knowledge about the formation and development of Russian commercial shipbuilding unknown to the general reader.
