The article considers the formation of the Russian legal system in the Imperial period.
The author designates the criteria for the allocation of such elements as generalities of
law. The groups of norms characterised by the generality of the subject of legal regula-
tion are analysed. The author comes to the conclusion that the legal system of the Rus-
sian Empire included several systems of law formed in parallel, which hampered its
uniform development and institutionalisation of generalities of law.
Key words: generality of law, Russian Empire, church law, particular law, legal sys-
tem, system of law.
