и методологии исследования – выбор и ответственность ученого»16, которым (и выбору, и ответственности) начинающих исследователей, безусловно, надо учить.
В связи с этим содействие разработке и разрешению методологических проблем цивилистики и цивилистических исследований редакторам и авторам настоящего сборника видится в качестве приоритетного направления своей научной и научно-педагогической работы, которая будет продолжена, в частности, в рамках проведения на базе юридического факультета Пермского государственного национального исследовательского университета в сотрудничестве с юридический факультетом Казанского федерального университета ставших ежегодными Пермских чтений по методологическим проблемам цивилистических исследований. К участию в них мы приглашаем докторов юридических наук и докторантов, небезразличных к сегодняшнему состоянию методологической тематики в гражданском праве.
Выражаем также надежду на продолжение взаимовыгодного сотрудничества с нашим неизменным партнером – издательством «Статут», которому от имени всего авторского коллектива сборника мы выражаем признательность и благодарность за всемерную поддержку нашего научного мероприятия и за предоставленную возможность опубликовать научные статьи его участников.

We would like to bring to your kind attention a collection of articles on the methodological aspects of the civil science which is published based on the results of the Perm Reading of the Methodological Problems of Civil Researches, held on May 20–21, 2016, at the premises of the Law Department of the Perm State National Research University within the framework of the events dedicated to the celebration of the 100th anniversary of the University17.
This is not the first experience of the team-work at such a book with our partners from biggest Russian juridical publishing house “Statut”. Publishing a similar volume based on the results of the 2015 Perm Reading on Methodological Problems was the pilot project which (as judged by the feedback of the colleagues) turned to be successful and caused interest in the scientific community. We express our gratitude to the “Statut” publishing house for their help and support in the realization of this complex, largely innovative project.
In 2016, the Perm Reading on the Civil Methodology were held for the forth time. For the first time, we gathered on the Perm land in 2012, when Professor Mikhail Yurievich Chelyshev was alive. He was the person to introduce the idea of holding such events in Perm (Mikhail Yurievich worked together with the Business Law, Civil and Arbitration Procedure Chair of the Perm State University, was the Chair Professor). Like in all the previous years, our event was dedicated to the memory of Mikhail Yurievich – a friend of ours, our colleague, a famous civil scientist, a teacher, the popularizer and the organizer of deep civil researches, who made a prominent contribution to the development of the methodological aspects of the civil science.
Our mutual idea is alive and developing. In 2015, the event got a status of the satellite project of the Perm Congress of the Law Scientists, since 2015 the “Statut” publishing house is a permanent partner of our scientific platform.
Starting from this year, the Perm Reading on the Methodological problems of the Civil Researches are organized jointly with the Kazan (Privolzhsky) Federal University, where Mikhail Yurievich was the Head of the Civil and Business Law Chair.
All that allowed to reach the desired purpose: to develop the project, to try to bring the results of the performed scientific discussion to the wide range of the juridical community, and what is more important – to involve prominent, unindifferent, interested people to the project realization – our colleagues, who enthusiastically supported the started dispute on the methodological problems. This, beyond all doubt, has a permanent importance for the development of science in general and the civil science in particular.
The scientific results of the first, the second and the third readings held correspondingly in 2013, 2014, 2015, were published in magazine “Perm University Herald. Juridical Sciences” (2013. # 4; 2014. # 4; 2015. # 3 (http:// www.jurvestnik.psu.ru)).
The principal purpose of the organizers and the partners of the Perm readings, and of the publishers of this book – is intensifying the interest for the civil methodological problematics, especially on the part of the young researchers and postgraduates seeking for the scientific degrees. We totally share the opinion that “a person not armoured methodologically, proceeds by trial and error”18. Observation of the methodological principles in civil researches can structure the scientific activity, lead to gaining the best scientific result using the minimum amount of means.
R. Jhering called such an observation the “law of economy” and saw “one of the life laws of any jurisprudence” in it: “The jurisprudence that
