The Importance of N. G. Salishcheva’s Scientific Heritage for the Formation of the National Doctrine of the Administrative Process

The Russian theory of the administrative process of the Soviet and post-Soviet periods is represented in the Russian Federation by various approaches to the concept and content of the administrative process as a type of legal process. Russian administrationists have no doubts about the existence of the administrative process, but so far they have not come to a consensus on its concept and structure.
The purpose of the study is to determine the degree of influence of N. G. Salishcheva’s scientific heritage on the formation of the national doctrine of the administrative process and the solution of tasks to establish the causes and directions of expanding N. G. Salishcheva’s views on the concept and content of the administrative process.
The study used systematic, logical, formal and legal methods.
Brief Conclusions. Based on the analysis of the reasons and directions for expanding N. G. Salishcheva’s views on the concept and content of the administrative process, the author comes to the following conclusions: 1) the inclusion of “administrative proceedings” in the framework of the administrative process as its independent type, along with “administrative jurisdiction”, also occurred in connection with the adoption and consolidation in the Constitution of the Russian Federation of a political and legal decision on the creation of a new type of legal proceedings in Russia – “administrative”, and was the result of bringing Russian legislation into line with Western European standards, and not a consequence of the development of the domestic theory of the administrative process; 2) the inclusion of “administrative procedures” in the framework of the administrative process as an independent type of its “administrative procedures” is due to the need to form legislation on administrative procedures, as a necessary legal guideline containing formal legal criteria for assessing legality actions of executive authorities in the course of administrative legal proceedings. The modern Russian doctrine of the administrative process includes within its framework the procedural forms of activity of subjects of public administration and the procedural procedure for the consideration of administrative cases by courts in the framework of admi­nistrative proceedings and the consideration by judges of other categories of cases arising from administrative legal relations attributed to their jurisdiction.
