The traditions of national historiography of the political and general investigation.

Annotation. On the basis of the analysis of works of pre-revolutionary authors, scholars who belonged to the Soviet historical-legal school, and contemporary authors the traditions of Russian historiography of the political and general criminal investigation are traced in the article. The author concluded that until the mid 1990-es its understanding as the function of the police was typical of investigation historiography. Since the end of the XX century there appeared a group of authors, tending to the identification of the pre-revolutionary investigation with modern operative search activities. At the present moment, there is an uncompromisable combination of these two approaches leading to non-coordination of the conceptual apparatus that prevents the formation of methodology of studying the history of the Russian investigation.

Key words: general criminal investigation, operative search activity, a political inquisition, investigation (sysk), syskologia, historiography.
