abstract = {A characteristic of the Russian legal-administrative literature, nearly until the end of the nineteenth century, was a predominance of the police manner of formulating functions and duties of public administration. It led to a lack of clear distinction between the sciences of administration and of administrative law and to the distinct attenuating of the latter science.  It appears to have been the result of both the Russian tradition of exposing administrative-structural issues dating back to the close of the eighteenth century and the weakness of the domestic theory of administrative law, constantly colliding with the formal political-structural frameworks of the Empire. However, the works of such authors as Wasilczikow, Kuplewskij, Iwanowskij, Tarasow or Jelistratow, although they were very few, were original in their content, and were the exceptions, setting the direction for the development of Russian administrative sciences, and constituting a peculiar reference point in Russian legal-administrative literature. Although they were free of most of the defects that the works of their predecessors were affected with, they were also rather an attempt to adjust the new trends dominating in western European literature to the situation in the Russian Empire, which condemned them to the position of always being one step behind in relation to their French or German counterparts.},
