What is a state? Until now, many believe that this is evil, that this is the mechanism that is necessary so that one class can exploit the other with complete impunity and “lawfully”. Yes, in the state everything is built on submission, but in fact it can also be based on justice.
The rule of law is a state in which the activity and organization of emanating from the highest authorities is based on law, does not violate it and acts exclusively with it. Laws can be adopted in the country that allow people a lot, but where is the guarantee that they will be respected?
The concept of the rule of law
His idea is based on the fact that the state can never be higher than the right, on the fact that it is laws that should govern the country, not people, and also on the fact that a person should not be at least somehow infringed by the state.
How are things today in our country? In fact, everything is worse than it seems. Yes, from TV screens they constantly say that the rule of law is just what our country has at the moment, but even an elementary analysis of the situation will help to understand that those in power and money do not think about the legitimacy of their actions and do not paying attention to the interests of other people.
The rule of law and its features
There must be a separation of powers. This refers to the fact that the judiciary, executive and legislative, should belong to different people and be independent. They cannot be in the hands of one person or organ, since then the monopolization of power will occur.
The rule of law is a state in which the Constitutional Court is constantly operating. As you yourself know, the Constitution is the most important document of the country. The norms contained in it, of course, must be protected by a separate body with the broadest powers.
What is the rule of law and law? First of all, it is the impossibility of repealing the law adopted by the highest representative body. Not only the Parliament passes laws, but all other legislative bodies can only issue laws that do not contradict the laws of the Parliament (the norms of the laws of the parliament cannot contradict the norms of the Constitution).
The rule of law is a state in which any laws that allow arbitrariness are invalidated.
The state, bodies and officials should act for the good of the people, and not pursuing any own interests.
The individual and the state must be mutually related to each other. Yes, a person always answers to the state, but the state also has to bear considerable responsibility for action piles to a specific person. Violating the rules, it will have to bear the responsibility established by laws.
The basic human rights that are enshrined in law should be realistically effective, not fictitious. Today, the constitutions of many countries proclaim complete freedom of assembly and rallies, but in practice, a person who decides to express his opinion publicly will be fined or even arrested for a short time. The same thing is happening in our country.
A person should be able to assert his rights in court. This feature should be available. Can a court in a legal state refuse to consider a plaintiff’s case because of sex? Property status and other? No, he can not. All are equal.
Information that does not reread moral standards and the like should be distributed unhindered and completely free.
The legal culture of citizens is important. Everyone should know not only their rights, but also their responsibilities. Let's not forget that not only the state, but also its citizens should act correctly.
