The textbook is compiled taking into account the current level of development of theoretical jurisprudence and legal practice and covers most legal terms, structures and definitions of the theory of state and law. Meanwhile, a fairly concise consideration of them requires additional work of students with academic, scientific general theoretical literature and normative legal acts .. The logical-thematic configuration of general theoretical concepts and categories makes it possible to rationally organize work in lecture and practical classes when studying the relevant topic of the training course . The course is also designed to prepare law school graduates for the state exam in state theory and law.
