The Influence of Religion on the Formation of Conciliatory Ideas in Russian Law

Abstract

This article is devoted to the historical and legal understanding of the phenomenon of reconciliation in line with national identity and socio-cultural traditions of Russian society. The article analyzes the problems of conciliatory justice in modern Russia, which has deep genetic roots primarily in society. The difficulties of establishing a viable and effective conciliatory justice in our country in the present conditions are associated with the violation of the organic unity of law and culture. The author focuses on the fact that the Christian doctrine based on love for one's neighbor, humility and submission, genetically laid in the Russian people the desire for reconciliation, not enmity. In addition, the peculiarities of the life of the Peasant rural community, which for a long time made up a significant part of the population of our country, conciliarity and nationality influenced the fact that many conflicts were resolved mainly by peaceful means, and not by force. A socio-cultural approach was applied to the study of the religious grounds of reconciliation, as well as the peculiarities of the national mentality, which allowed us to come to the following conclusion. The revival of religious morality and morality will contribute to the establishment of the culture of dialogue as the basis of relationships between individuals and the popularization of conciliation procedures. Perfect legislation in this case acts as a superstructure over the basis of moral and religious education.
