metadata.name: dc.description.abstract
metadata.value: The great reforms of Alexander II formed a movement of liberal lawyers in the Russian Empire
  who were seeking ways of modernization of the country’s socio-political system on European
  models. We propose referring to this group of lawyers as “liberal legalists”. Liberal legalists
  are understood as an association of liberal dignitaries of the Russian Empire in the second
  half of the 19th — early 20th centuries, mainly judiciaries and legal scholars. The ideology of
  legalists can be defined as conservative liberalism, and their ideological inspiration was the
  famous legal scholar B. N. Chicherin. The movement of liberal legalists has not been studied in
  historical science, yet this topic seems important for the formation of a holistic and objective
  picture of the socio-political history of the Russian Empire in the second half of the 19th and
  early 20th centuries. The degree of participation of legalists in the general conservative-liberal
  movement of the empire at the turn of the century deserves a separate discussion. This movement
  encompassed like-minded circles of zemstvo and urban intelligentsia, and part of the
  middle- and upper-class bourgeoisie. In contrast to the history of the organization of zemstvo
  unions described in scholarship, the history of legalist activity as a socio-political movement
  has not been identified or defined. The use of archives of legalist societies, memoirs and diaries
  of imperial lawyers enables to reconstruct this movement and determine its role in the liberation
  movement. The use of the problem-based approach and chronological method made it
  possible to carry out this reconstruction.
