The category of truth in Bakunin's political and legal theory

The subject of the study is the problem of truth in the political and legal theory of Mikhail Bakunin. The object of the study is the social relations that form different interpretations of the concept of truth in the teachings of M. Bakunin. The author examines in detail the correlation of truth in the works of the anarchist theorist from both a philosophical and a dogmatic point of view. It is analyzed in detail in the doctrine of interspersed jurisprudence from an economic point of view, as well as the theory of knowledge, which was understood by M.Bakunin as phenomena in their pure completeness without any admixture of fantasies, assumptions or other attachments of human consciousness, in which the difference between epistemology and law is manifested. Special attention is paid to M. Bakunin's reflection on the laws of nature and lawmaking. The main conclusions of the study are: - the reason for the utopianism of Bakunin's teaching, in our opinion, is his rejection of the legislative consolidation of the fundamental principles of law, which in turn replaces law with morality. A special contribution of the author to the study of the topic is the conclusion that the most developed economic liberalism in the middle of the 19th century in Russia was in Siberia, which was facilitated by the patronage of the Governor-General of Eastern Siberia Muravyov. The novelty of the research lies in the fact that for the first time M. Bakin's ideas about truth are analyzed not from the point of view of criticism of Marxism-Leninism, but from the philosophical and legal-dogmatic side.
