Abstract: 

International law is worth much more attention than it takes today in Russian legal teaching. Such a position of international law runs counter both its research significance within legal academia and its praxis importance as regards the protection of the State’s interests in the competitive international order. The paper commences with the reasons of such an inferior stance of international law in Russian legal education. Then it proceeds with the role of learning international law to elaborate hard and particularly soft skills. The latter is not well fostered within conventional internally oriented legal disciplines.

Key words:
