Principle of legality: nature and essence under the conditions of democratic changes

One of “shocking” features of our humanitarian publishing space and legal scientific work of the recent years is the absence of significant monographic pieces of work and, even, article material concerning the “legality” category which has almost disappeared in the scientific usage and popular scientific publications.

Obviously, such state of affairs is not dictated by the considerable improvement of situation in all life spheres — from working to rest conditions.

The modern crisis state and its displays generate firm social and legal nihilism which is transformed today from the plane of emotions, senses, feelings, experiencing (legal psychology), to the plane of persuasions, attitude, presentations, stereotypes (legal ideology). It predetermines this or that, unfortunately, not always desirable for the society behavior of an individual.
