Early Life and Education

Evgeny Alekseevich Krasheninnikov was born in 1951 in Yaroslavl, Russia, to a working-class family. After graduating from Yaroslavl High School No. 40 in 1968, he briefly attended the Industrial and Civil Construction Faculty of the Yaroslavl Technological Institute before withdrawing in 1970.

From 1970 to 1972, Krasheninnikov served in the Soviet Army in the Krasnoyarsk Territory, preparing for future studies at Moscow State University. However, in 1973, he chose to enroll in the Faculty of History and Law at Yaroslavl State University due to family circumstances.

Academic Career

In 1978, Krasheninnikov became an assistant professor at the Department of Civil Law and Procedure at Yaroslavl State University while pursuing a graduate degree in "Civil Law and Procedure." In 1980, after the unexpected death of his supervisor, he transferred to the graduate program at Leningrad State University, where he began teaching courses on Roman Private Law and Soviet Civil Law.

In 1983, Krasheninnikov defended his doctoral dissertation on the topic "The Nature of Civil Procedural Law Norms." The defense was highly successful, with council members considering awarding him a Doctor of Law degree, but this was ultimately not voted on.

From 1986 to 1987, Krasheninnikov advanced from a senior lecturer to an associate professor at Yaroslavl State University. In 1989, he received the title of professor in Civil Law and Procedure.

Scientific Contributions

Krasheninnikov's research primarily focused on protecting subjective civil rights and interests. He became a pioneer in the field of bill of exchange law and law of securities, establishing the Yaroslavl School of Bill of Exchange Law and Law of Securities.

His first monograph, "Issuing a Bill of Exchange" (1992), along with his theses on "Registered Shares of Joint-Stock Companies" and "On Bearer Instruments," laid the foundation for this school.

Krasheninnikov's other notable contributions include:

- Developing theories on the structure of subjective civil rights, constitutional rights to judicial protection, and protected interests

- Introducing new concepts such as "subordinate right," "quasi-suffering," and "transformative claim"

- Leading the publication of the annual "Essays on Commercial Law" from 1994 to 2013

- Supervised and supported the preparation of numerous doctoral and master's theses

Recognition and Legacy

Krasheninnikov's contributions have been recognized in several collections of essays published in his honor, including "Collection of Articles in Honor of the 50th Anniversary of E.A. Krasheninnikov" (2001), "Collection of Articles in Honor of the 55th Anniversary of E.A. Krasheninnikov" (2006), and "Collection of Scientific Articles in Honor of the 60th Anniversary of E.A. Krasheninnikov" (2011).

Upon his passing, "Collection of Scientific Articles in Memory of E.A. Krasheninnikov" (2014) and a re-edition of his selected works, "Civil Law and Procedure: Selected Works" (2020), were published.

Krasheninnikov's legacy lives on through his students, who continue to develop and expand upon his groundbreaking research in the field of civil law.
