К ВОПРОСУ О ПРИМЕНЕНИИ МАТЕМАТИЧЕСКИХ МЕТОДОВ В ЮРИДИЧЕСКОЙ НАУКЕ

Abstract

The problem of application of mathematical methods in legal science is one of the actual problems facing modern legal science. The urgency of this problem is connected with the recent appearance of a series of works devoted to the possibilities of applying mathematical methods in jurisprudence. The purpose of the study is to determine the possibilities of applying mathematical methods in legal science and to evaluate their possible scientific potential. The main objectives of the study include: identifying the specificity of the application of mathematical methods in legal science, determining the scientific potential of mathematical methods (identifying those patterns that can be identified using mathematical methods), determining the possible range of problems facing legal science solved with the help of mathematical methods.
 
 Among the research methods used in writing this article are: general scientific methods: analysis, synthesis, induction, deduction, abstraction, generalization; special methods: formally - legal and comparative - legal approach.
 In the course of the study it was concluded that the use of mathematical methods in legal science is possible when analyzing both the quantitative and qualitative aspects of legal phenomena. Moreover, if the quantitative aspect of legal phenomena can be investigated using the methods of mathematical statistics and classical mathematical methods, then the qualitative aspect of legal phenomena can be investigated using binary matrices. The study also showed the possibility of using binary matrices and classical mathematical methods in analyzing the effectiveness of legal regulation.
