The article is devoted to the most odious and related to each other problems of Russian domestic politics, i.e.: the underdevelopment as a law-based state and the extremely high rates of corruption. The factors of civilizational development of the West, East and Russia that have had a decisive influence on the formation of the key contemporary legal systems and forms of regulation of corruption are discussed in detail. The article presents special features of the Russian civilizational potential, as well as the determining problems of the legal state and the minimization of corruption.
