Abstract
The actualization of the stated issue is due to the widespread dissemination and recognition of judgments about the uselessness of philosophy for branch juris-prudence. The rooting of such reflections in criminal law has led to the need to verify their validity and the reasons for their appearance. The subject of clarification also be-came the consequences for science and practice as a result of the rejection of philosophy. According to the results of the study, it was revealed that the denial of philosophy is not associated with abstraction and abstraction as its inherent properties. Distancing oneself from it is a sure sign of the pathology of criminal law thought itself, based on the principles of positivism. Philosophy is often used by science to cover its own abstraction from reality and to conceal the presence of this anomaly in its ranks. The detachment from philosophy actually hides one of the forms of the departure of jurisprudence from reality and from man as its creator.
