Systematization and interpretation of the obtained results is a logical conclusion of the comparative historical and legal analysis. In spite of the fact that the researcher already has a certain understanding of the specific character of the objects being compared at the stage of choosing the topic of the comparative research work, he can finally formulate his conclusions only after a large-scale comparison of them. The necessity of the systematization of the comparative historical and legal research results is conditioned by several factors. First of all, this is the number of the objects being compared and also the variety of the information that is being read by the researcher during this process and becomes open to generalization. The systematization puts in order and coherence a large flow of information about the objects being compared, and its purpose is to bring a great number of the objects being examined or the knowledge of them to a certain number of groups and to arrange the latter in accordance with the requirements of subordination, and their hierarchy.
The systematization of the scientific knowledge results is of great importance for the comparative historical and legal research. In some scientific works the systematization is used to solve a wide variety of problems starting with the primary ordering of factual and empirical material and ending with various forms of the knowledge cataloguing. The systematic form of the scientific knowledge enables a comparative historian to survey a large aggregate of historical and legal phenomena, helps to orientate in the variety of signs of the historical and legal objects being compared, to reveal the order in them. The systematization allows you to simplify complexity, to see the elements behind the certain multitude it consists of. The methods of the systematization allow saving the efforts of the researcher, avoiding hard necessity for the individual direct studying of the whole variety of the objects under study, provide the possibility of generalized and indirect knowledge of them. Besides, the systematization of the comparative historical and legal research results is the base which the comparative historian formulates the conclusions on from his work, and also realizes final concentrated valuation of them.
The article examines the ways and forms of systematization of the results of a comparative historical and legal analysis. The main conclusions that can be obtained during the comparison of historical and legal objects are considered. The multidimensionality of the organization and presentation of information in the course of a comparative study is characterized. The article analyzes the meaning of typology at the stage of ordering the results of comparative work and its correlation with the classification. Conclusions about new ways of generalizing the data obtained in the process of carrying out the comparative historical and legal research are made.
