Treating law as a system of rules, H. Hart emphasizes their “open texture” rooted in language, when, along with clear cases of use of legal terms and rules, there are borderline, problematic cases that require a judicial choice from existing alternatives, i.e. a discretion. H. Hart also conceives a moderate discretion as a means of ensuring flexibility and rationality of legal regulation, as well as the weighted solution of legal issues in accordance with social goals and values. This doctrine is contested by R. Dworkin as an inadequate description of a legal system and the delegitimation of the institution of law, which allows backdating of rights and obligations carried out by officials not elected democratically. According to the critic, the discretion is neither inevitable nor desirable. He proposes a model of law as an interpretative enterprise that includes various standards, primarily principles that ensure the proper application of rules and completeness of regulation. Being bound by his institutional debt and the best theory of the valid law, a judge always has sufficient reasons for a decision: for finding the unique right answer to any legal question.</p><p>The topicality of addressing this dispute is conditioned by the specificity (novelty) of its content and arguments as compared with similar positions in domestic Russian literature, discussing a number of important aspects of judicial discretion that are of theoretical and practical importance. The paper presents an overview of the main positions of dispute parties as well as of some of its results. In particular, the article emphasizes the significance of the debate for changing the structure of philosophical positions regarding judicial discretion, and the important role of R. Dworkin’s arguments in the ideological and methodological transformation of contemporary Anglo-American philosophy of law.</p></abstract><trans-abstract xml:lang="ru"><p>Предмет настоящей статьи – философская экспликация судейского усмотрения в базовом для англо-американской философии права споре между Гербертом Хартом и Рональдом Дворкином. Рассматривая право как систему правил, Г. Харт подчеркивает их «открытую текстуру», укорененную в языке, когда наряду с ясными случаями употребления юридических терминов и правил, имеются пограничные, проблемные случаи, необходимо требующие судейского выбора из имеющихся альтернатив – усмотрения. При этом умеренное усмотрение мыслится Г. Хартом как средство, обеспечивающее гибкость и разумность правового регулирования, взвешенное решение юридических вопросов сообразно общественным целям и ценностям. Указанная доктрина оспаривается Р. Дворкином как неадекватное описание правовой системы и делегитимация института права, допускающая вменение прав и обязанностей задним числом, осуществляемое должностными лицами, не избранными демократическим путем. Согласно критику, усмотрение не является ни неизбежным, ни желательным. Он выдвигает модель права как интерпретативного предприятия, включающего различные стандарты, прежде всего принципы, обеспечивающие должное применение правил и полноту регламентации. У судьи, связанного институциональным долгом и наилучшей теорией действующего права, всегда есть достаточные основания для решения – нахождения в праве единственно верного ответа на любой юридический вопрос.</p><p>Актуальность обращения к данному спору обусловлена спецификой (новизной) его содержания и аргументов по сравнению с аналогичными позициями в отечественной литературе, обсуждением целого ряда важных аспектов судейского усмотрения, имеющих теоретическое и практическое значение. В статье предлагается обзор основных позиций сторон в споре, подводятся некоторые его итоги. В частности, подчеркивается значение рассматриваемого спора для изменения структуры философских позиций в отношении судейского усмотрения, а также важную роль аргументов Р. Дворкина в идейно-методологической трансформации современной англо-американской философии права.</p></trans-abstract><kwd-group xml:lang="en"><kwd>legal standards</kwd><kwd>legal indeterminacy</kwd><kwd>judicial decision</kwd><kwd>judicial discretion</kwd><kwd>legal positivism</kwd><kwd>H.L.A.
