Forensic expertology distinguishes between different types of use of special knowledge that are expressed in legal proceedings, each of which has its own characteristic features. Despite the problems associated with determining the type of forensic examination, the competence of the expert, etc., in general, an approach to checking and evaluating the conclusion of a forensic expert has been established. One of the important issues when conducting an assessment is checking the correctness of the methodology chosen by the expert, the compliance of the methods with the established criteria: scientificity, verifiability, accuracy, efficiency, safety and ethics. The methodology of various types (kinds) of forensic examinations is developed on a strictly scientific basis, using general theoretical achievements of forensic expertology and the theory of the relevant scientific field, such as linguistics, art history, etc. However, fairly new «forensic examinations» in the humanities have appeared in forensic investigative practice. Among them are cultural studies, religious studies, political science, ethics, etc. Most of these «examinations» are conducted without proper methodological support, with a high level of subjectivity, which cannot be hidden behind the very lengthy explanations given in the conclusion of forensic activities, which is especially evident in the absence of a research section in the conclusion of the forensic expert. In a number of cases, they try to justify the theoretical basis of such «examination» by a non-existent area of scientific knowledge.

The formation of the modern appearance of the field of forensic examination is the definition of its external outlines and boundaries, technological potential, a set of features that characterize the main vector of special knowledge, the priorities of internal methodological structures and the content of professional competencies. This has always been due to the desire to find an optimal balance between the needs of the law enforcement officer and the capabilities of the subjects of applying special knowledge. Scientific and practical conferences and forums have always been of great importance in these processes. The international project “East-West: Partnership in Forensic Science” is one of the clearest examples of this. As a result of the study of the final materials of this project over twenty years the author examines the genesis of a new class of humanitarian forensic examinations, which was a response to modern challenges in the Russian Federation. The tasks of forensic expert support for the protection of spiritual and moral values, national culture and historical memory are formulated. Along with the already established comprehensive psychological and linguistic examination, a whole interdisciplinary complex of additional forensic studies of information materials is identified as priority forensic areas. These are political science, ethics and religious studies forensic examinations. The professional sovereignty of the Russian Federation and friendly foreign states in the field of forensic activities is essential for the implementation of strategic national priorities, namely state, public and information security.
