Summary:The Author provides the results of a comparative analysis of two classically differentiated by legal scholars national legal systems – the American and Russian systems. Obviously, the announced legal systems represent two of the main categories of legal systems: common law and Roman law. Considered traditionally as part of common law, the Author investigates distinctive attributes of American federal and state law, proving the fact of integration of significant features of Continental Europe and Anglo-Saxon legal systems. The article also contains an analysis of the legal nature of the case-law of the European Court of Human Rights and its distinguished place as a precedent (which is the main common law attribute) and source of law in the Russian Federation.
