Abstract
The paper describes the activity of prominent representatives of the legal corps of Russia at the beginning of the twentieth century, who were members of the neo-populist parties (Socialist-Revolutionaries and People’s Socialists) and who took an active part in the social and political life of the country in 1905-1917. During the period under review, many young people who started their professional careers as lawyers did not stay away from social reorganization and joined opposition political parties. The socialist worldview, coupled with the modernization processes that objectively began in the country, stimulated the desire of neo-populist lawyers to improve not only legal institutions, but also the entire state system of Russia. Particular attention is paid to a number of the most significant figures from among the populist lawyers, for whom public policy did not overshadow their interest in legal issues. Their philosophy and journalism assesses the state of the Russian state and law of the imperial, revolutionary 1917 and Soviet periods.
