In the process of studies the author used general philosophical, theoretical and empiric methods (dialectics, systemic method, analysis, synthesis, analogy, deduction, observation, modeling), traditional legal methods ( formal logic method), and methods typical for specific sociological studies (statistical, expert evaluation, etc.).  Additionally, corruption casts a negative influence upon the development of economics, financial system and the entire infrastructure of the Russian state. It should be noted that corruption in the activities of state government and administration bodies  facilitates development of organized crime, forming the basis for the development of extremism and terrorism centers, threatening implementation of the national projects, undermining the ongoing public legal reforms in Russia. All of these problems and a number of others objectively call for formation of the administrative legal mechanism against corruption in various spheres of activities of public servants, as well as for the formation of the institution of administrative justice.
