POWER AS A MEANS OF CREATING THE LEGAL LIFE OF SOCIETY

Keywords: society, law, state, power, legal regulation

Abstract

Introduction. From the moment of the emergence of the state, as a means of uniting society, there was a need for the formation of appropriate authorities that would not contain a single personification of all spheres of responsibility of public administration and would serve as auxiliary means of state regulation of society, which make up the mechanism of the state. In this regard, in the course of the evolutionary processes of social devel-opment and state formation, a universal system of public administration emerged, which was called the "system of checks and balances". But the question arose of the risks of the implementation of the will of power in the course of the implementation of state and legal management by members of society.

Summary of the main research results. For the study of the subject that is the problem of scientific consideration, the following key components were analyzed, which in their totality make it possible to determine the axiology and reveal the meaning of the issue under study. The issue of society as the primary and main component of the reason for the study was analyzed. Since society acts as the only object of both legal and power influence on which legal regula-tion is directed, during which the subjective will of governing bodies is embodied. Society is a set of persons living in a certain territory and united by common interests, for the satisfaction of which they interact and form both the state and their governing bodies.
The ontology of the state as a key component that determines the emergence and personifies the authorities has been studied. A state is a political-territorial organization of society in a certain territory, with clearly defined bounda-ries, on which the relevant authorities and the legal system operate. That is, the state forms authorities that, on the basis of the legal norms created by them, regulate the relations that arise between members of society, thereby creating a field of legal regulation. In the course of creating appropriate legal norms, which serve as single, generally binding rules of conduct, the will is imposed through the legal regulation of the ruling class, which represents the authorities in the state. Therefore, the question arises of assessing the role of power as a means of creating the legal life of society.

Conclusions. Therefore, the issue of the will of power in the course of the legal regulation of society through the creation of formally expressed, generally binding rules of conduct is quite relevant. Society, creating a state, which results in the formation of relevant authorities, aims to ensure their development and further existence. Therefore, the issue of guaranteeing the conscientious regulation of society by the authorities authorized to create rules of cohabitation of its members, as well as the possibility of embodying the will of power through the mechanisms of state coercion, is quite complicated.
