Abstract

This article is devoted to the problem of dogmatic and critical aspects of political and legal thought in Western Europe in the early Modern period (c. 1600 - 1750). Modern period is a turning point in the history of not only the entire world civilization, but also of philosophical thought and political science, at the "junction" of which the teachings on state and law were formed. The early Modern period – the time of the collapse of the feudal socio-economic formation and the crisis of the essentially dogmatic scholastic worldview - gives an impetus to the development of capitalist economic relations in Western Europe, which was accompanied by the strengthening of the critical dominant in philosophical and scientific thought. During the historical period under review, the critical aspect was gradually developing in the context of Western European doctrines about the state and law, although at the same time political thinkers of the dogmatic persuasion continued to build their systems. Thus, this article highlights a rather ambiguous problem of the correlation of dogmatic and critical aspects in the Western European political and legal thought of the early Modern period
