Abstract
There are many research problems and directions in the history of political and legal doctrines. In addition to political writings and treatises, Soviet party constitutionalism occupies a significant place in Russian political and legal thought. It is a historical source that reflects the activities of the Communist Party in the constitutional and legal sphere of society. In Russian jurisprudence, this source has been developed and studied in detail since the emergence of the Soviet state. Many concepts and approaches have been put forward and developed. One of the objectives of the article was to systematize in chronological order the views of jurists on Soviet party constitutionalism and to show continuity with modern theoretical and legal developments. In addition, it was important to find out that the essential component of all party constitutionalism was the ideological positions of K. Marx, F. Engels, V. I. Lenin, as well as some other ideologists of the Communist Party. It was shown in the article that throughout the entire period of the existence of Soviet party constitutionalism, these ideas were the core, the system-forming principle. As a result, it was possible to understand that the principle of partisanship began to guide the entire legal system of the state. Ideology has become a real tool for the representation of constitutionalism on various strata of Soviet society.
