The collective monograph analyzed the fate of twelve pairs of Russian lawyers, who as a result of the revolutionary events of 1917 were «on opposite sides of the barricades». Defending the position that «any controversial Constitution is better than an indisputable revolution», the authors carefully showed the contribution of representatives of different areas of political and legal thought to the development of legal science. The difficulties of the development of Russian jurisprudence are shown both in Soviet Russia and in the «Russian abroad».
