Abstract
The purpose of the article is to analyze the neo-conservative concept of the state by L. Tikhomirov, which held a special position in the system of conservative political and legal doctrines of K.N. Leontiev, V.S. Solovyov, K.P. Pobedonostsev, M.N. Katkov. It was summed up to the following. The monarchy that really existed before the reform of the state mechanism in 1906 did not correspond to his ideals, since, while maintaining the form, it lacked a true Orthodox principle, a consistent social order and conditions for the development of the individual.
The study showed that the specific understanding of the supreme power, which reflects not class, but general social interests, expressed by him when he was the ideologist of populism, was preserved by him as one of the leaders of neoconservatism in the post-populist period.
Conclusion. L. Tikhomirov's ideal of Russian statehood was Orthodox monarchism with indivisible supreme power and a legislative and advisory representative body functioning under it, the status of a person and a citizen based on Christian values and a corporate social structure. Orthodox spiritual principles determine the essence of the state.
