Abstract
In the article based on the identification and analysis of the historiographic context, a conceptual project for the development of legal regulation of social and labor relations is modeled through the historical reconstruction of domestic doctrinal approaches to the formation of the theory of labor relations. The undertaken review of the history of law illustrates the objective determinacy of the emergence of private-public social branches of law, including Labor. The decisive influence of domestic science and practice of labor regulation on the global development of labor law in the twentieth century, as well as the counter-implementation of norms and features of labor law in Russia in the transitional period are shown. The analysis of the historiography and main sources made it possible to substantiate the need for convergence of domestic theoretical models of labor relations. This makes it doctrinally possible to adapt to the subject of Labor Law the regulation of emerging and changing forms of labor organization, employment and social protection in the context of transitional hybrid and post-global law enforcement and legal regimes and the preservation of historically conditioned traditional-value constitutionalized fundamental labor and social rights and institutions of labor protection, social insurance and social partnership.
