On the example of specific territorial associations of the member states of the integration unions of the EU, EAEU, BRICS, MERCOSUR, and SCO, the processes of creating common legal spaces that erase differences in approaches to the formation of legal policy and legal culture of sovereign limited jurisdictions are described. A brief description of the papers presented in the main topic of the issue, reflecting the historical patterns and current trends in scientific, technological and integration development that affect the transformation of legal policy and legal culture, is given.
