Popis: Objective: to conduct a comprehensive analysis of the collection of works of the All-Russian scientific and practical conference "Criteria in law: theory, practice, technology", held at Nizhny Novgorod Academy of the Ministry of internal Affairs of Russia on 24-25 May 2018.Methods: dialectical approach to cognition of social phenomena, which allowed to analyze the place of the legal criterion within the general laws of development and functioning of social relations; hermeneutic, formal legal, comparative legal methods. Results: significance of the main approaches outlined in the reviewed edition for the theory of law and the state is estimated, regarding the criterion legal nature. It is established that the legal criterion is a complex, intersectoral category with dialectical nature: both a measure of attribution of one object (phenomenon) to a one-order group and a set of individual properties that distinguish the object (phenomenon). On this basis, the role of the legal criterion in law-making, law enforcement is considered, as well as a means of legal regulation.Scientific novelty: for the first time the legal criterion has become the subject of a comprehensive study from theoretical, legal, and sectoral positions. The assessment is given to the provisions on the criterion legal nature, the proposals on its definition, and the identification of formal legal properties. The conclusion is made about the role of the reviewed edition as the beginning of a thorough scientific discussion about criteria in law and legal knowledge about the measures and boundaries of legal reality.Practical significance: the reviewer concluded that the reviewed edition can be used not only by researchers (teaching staff of law educational establishments), but also by practicing lawyers, staff of courts and Prosecutor's offices, advocates, human rights defenders, as well as undergraduate students, master and doctoral applicants.
