AT THE FOREFRONT OF LEGAL SCIENCE AND PRACTICE

The paper offers an overview of the discussions at four panels that were held within the framework of the V St. Petersburg International Legal Forum. During the first conference participants covered several problems — from difficulties of introduction of two-level system of legal education in Russia to ways for motivation of students and lecturers. The topic of the second round table was probably one of the most discussed at the Forum. The third conference shows that the implementation of the very basic principle of judiciary — independence — is still quite difficult. As the fourth round table reveals civil law in Russia is in permanent condition of reforming, and it is a time to make its detailed and objective analysis.
