Модельное терминообразование: аспекты и актуальные тенденции

Abstract

We consider the features of model terminology. The purpose of the study is to comprehend and initially describe the specifics of the basic model legislative terms and definitions, aspects and trends of their formulation and use. To achieve this goal, we analyze 157 model acts (13 codes and 144 laws) adopted by the Interparliamentary Assembly of the CIS member states in the period from 2012 to 2021; more than 2000 model terms and definitions. We note that the model term formation is carried out taking into account the established traditions of creating legal acts, the peculiarities of the hierarchical and subject-branch correlation of legislative terms and con-cepts, as well as understanding the functions, means and methods of formulating legal definitions. Model definitions of terms reflect the typical phenomena of legal discourse of unification, trans-formation, homonymy, polysemy, synonymy, antonymy of legal concepts, variability of their legal definitions. The methodological basis is formed by general scientific methods and approaches used in modern Russian studies and legal linguistics (analysis, comparison, analogy, modeling, contextual, interpretive, systemic, interdisciplinary and other approaches). The work can be useful to those whose activities are related to the official business sphere of communication, who creates, analyzes and systematizes legal acts, examines the development of legal terminology, the Russian language as the state language of the Russian Federation.
