The myth role in current identification programs: studying law remythologization in the scientific and educational field in modern Russia

Introduction. The article analyzes the issue of the myth role in identification programs of individual and group types, corresponding to ethnic law activation at the level of educational and research institutions. The availability of cultural centers conducting studies in the field of customs and traditions researches (e.g. in studying national languages) shows citizens' interest in “home area" ideas, specification of their position in general civil identification pattern and correlation between ethnic and civil law. The author puts a question of correlation between legal awareness types and law politization process (including educational subject), examines correlation between ideological projections of various research approaches and those research approaches themselves.

Materials and methods. The material for the scientific study were the projects and programs which are used in teaching and researching ethnic law and legal philosophy in various educational and research institutions in Russia, as well as scientific results of those institutions' activities presented in books and articles and popular-scientific literature. The methodological foundation of the research is the horizontal and vertical comparative study method enabling us to understand correlation between various educational subjects concerned with ethnic law. This method also allows tracing their genesis and current state by key points affecting identification preferences.

Research results. The article shows that law remythologization in the scientific and educational field in modern Russia is a consequence of the promotion of social and cultural processes at the regional and local levels. They were triggered by a conditional decentralization due to political reforms over the last thirty years and their result was an increased interest in national languages, culture and traditions. All these phenomena have a particular scientific and academic significance, as well as (under certain circumstances) an ideological meaning. As a result law remythologization, on the one hand, is a solid base for civil legal awareness filling its formalized directions with a meaning picked up from direct communication between people. On the other hand, accentuation on archaic forms of social relations regulation by means of ethnic law may contribute to dramatic intensification of regionalization tendencies. Thus dynamic balance between law and tradition calls for regular efforts for adjustment of corresponding educational programmes and for training highly qualified teachers capable of working with various students categories.

Discussion and conclusion. The article points out and describes the basic directions of legal philosophy development in connection with legal anthropology, shows possible ways of improving educational programmes taking into consideration the ideological influence of the ideological ethnic law interpretation vector which may have an impact upon students' awareness. A special importance in this context is to be given to civil law teaching, as well to philosophy and complementary disciplines promoting forming a conscious social positioning.
