Summary:Objective: to generate scientifically based knowledge about the possibility of implementing the post-classical methodology to the study of corruption counteraction issues in Russia.Methods: the methodological basis of research is post-classical paradigm of the world outlook in the form of anthropological-legal methodol- ogy, which determined the choice of specific research methods: comparative, hermeneutic, and discursive.Results: corruption counteraction in Russia is largely based on the legal transfer without consideration to national legal traditions. The lack of connection with legal experience reduces the effectiveness of activities in this area. This paper argues that it is impossible to address the issue of fighting corruption without solving the conceptual problems associated with cultural and other self-identification of the Russian society as a traditional one, as well as with the role of unwritten law in regulating social relations.Scientific novelty: for the first time in the Russian legal science, the anti-corruption policies in Russia are analyzed in the anthropological context. Practical significance: the main provisions and conclusions of the article can be used in research and teaching in addressing issues about the nature and content of legal development, practical activities of law-making and law-enforcement authorities in the formation of effective corrup-tion counteraction system in Russia.
