Abstract

The article analyzes the process of evolution of the comparative law methodology from classical approaches of using the historical and comparative method to the principles of modern postnonclassical science.

The purpose of the study is to identify the features of the development of the comparative law methodology at different stages in the national legal doctrine.

In the course of the research, methods of synchronous and diachronic comparison were used, which made it possible to evaluate doctrinal approaches to the methodology of comparative legal research. The appeal to the historical aspects of the problem caused the use of the historical method. The method of analysis was used to study scientific papers on the comparative law methodology.

As a result of the conducted research, it became possible to identify the features of the development of the comparative law methodology at different historical stages, depending on the evolution of the prevailing scientific paradigm. The process of developing the comparative historical method into a full-fledged scientific direction within the framework of legal science is shown. It is concluded that in the conditions of postnonclassical scientific rationality, comparative law becomes interdisciplinary, it is characterized by an emphasis on the anthropological component of legal reality and the analysis of non-legal factors affecting the legal behavior of legal subjects in different legal cultures.
