Оголтелая борьба (интервенция в юридическую науку и перепетии проведенной в Тбилиси 30-х годах «дискуссии») советчины против истинной юридической научной мысли в 30-х годах XX столетия

Abstract

Summary

The process of occupation and forced Sovietization of Georgia affected all spheres of the social life of the conquered country, including science and culture. The greatest harm was caused to Georgian legal science, which, in the pre-Soviet period, was developed under the ideological influence of advanced European thoughts. Georgian legal scholars, who were educated in prestigious European educational institutions, in their works reflected the achievements of various theories and schools of their Western teachers and colleagues. In the early 30s, Soviet functionaries of all stripes launched a fierce struggle against those progressive thinkers who did not accept the doctrine of Marxism-Leninism "about the dictatorship of the proletariat and violence against the class enemy" and, with the aim of their social isolation, held the so-called "scientific discussion," which had devastating consequences and ended with irreparable damage to Georgian legal thought: many representatives of legal science were killed, or for many years, were forced to obey party dogmas to the detriment of true scientific thought.
