Legal Nihilism in the Context of the Implementation of Amnesty and the Social Consequences of its use (on the Example of the Russian Federation)

Abstract

The article deals with the peculiarities of the interaction of such legal phenomena as legal nihilism and amnesty. Based on a comprehensive analysis of these phenomena, the authors substantiate the opinion that the issue of an amnesty act can have both positive and negative social consequences, which reflect the dual nature of legal nihilism: the combination of both destructive manifestations and a positive impact on social relations.
