G.F. Shershenevich’s Views on law interpretation, judicial precedent and analogy of the right
Shershenevich found it faulty to give an element of any scientific character to law interpretating activity thus reducing law interpretation to the so called “inferior jurisprudence”. The jurisprudent pointed out that it was unreasonable to single out such a kind of interpretation as legal interpretation as well because “it isn’t interpretation at all, but the law”. Shershenevich pointed out that very often extended interpretation was mistakenly identified with analogy of the right. Thereby, the thinker laid the foundation of several interesting ideas and arguments in further development of juridical hermeneutics’ doctrine.
