Law on administrative responsibility for offences in the field of education and protection of the rights of subjects of educational relations

Analyzing the development of the Russian administrative and delict law, the author draws the conclusion about deformation of the legislator’s logic, who originally tried not to go beyond the general constituent elements of administrative offenses. The supplementing of the Administrative Code of the Russian Federation with special rules in 2009 made up for a legal gap, but the law enforcement practice of jurisdictional subjects is still controversial and often violates the rights of the subjects of the educational relationship. The study of specific incidents enables the author to make the conclusions about the need for a more thorough introduction of a set of principles of administrative law, including proportionality and the excessive formalism prohibition, into the Russian legal system.
