Historical and philosophical aspects of the study of slavophilism

The study of issues related to cultural, spiritual and national self-determination of our country at the present historical epoch is central in the national historiography. Slavophile political doctrine was based on moral and religious and other traditional values, singularity (identity) of Russian history and statehood. The Slavophile political ideal is characterized by: commitment to the people in monarchy; its absoluteness; mutual non-interference of the state and the people in each other's affairs; the lack of bureaucracy as an interagent between them; a ruler of good morals; wide social state functions. Slavophilism should be considered as the most studied Russian social thought; it is proved by the number of literature published in our country and abroad. The authors refer to the analysis of historical and philosophical aspects of the study of Slavophilism to work at the positive experience that can be used in future.
