State • is a special organization of political authority which carries out functions of managing of a society and has a specially mechanism of compulsion. • is a political association that establishes sovereign jurisdiction within defined territorial borders and exercises authority through a set of permanent institutions.

  5. 2. Concept of a civil society. Structure of the civil society The lawful state is such a state in which ­ are created conditions for fully supporting the rights and freedoms of a person and citizen, and also, for the most consecutive ­ linkage by means of rights and political power with the aim of not allowing of abusing.

  6. Any society consists of citizens; without them it is impossible­. Only the pre-state and not civilized (patrimonial) society it was impossible to refer to as civil: first, because of its immaturity and its primitiveness; secondly, because there were not such concepts as "citizen" or "citizenship” at all. To be a member of political society meant to be the citizen, member of the state and by that to be obliged to live and operate according to its laws, not harming to other citizens.

  7. The concept of civil society in its interdependence with state has been developed by Hegel. Systematizing all heritages of the French English-Saxon and German political thought, Hegel has come to the conclusion, that formation of civil society represents a special stage in dialectic movement from family to state.

  8. “Civil society, - he wrote, - is differentiation which acts between family and state though development of civil society comes later, than state development”

Basic functions of civil society: • 1) Maintenance of free development of person on an economic basis of various patterns of ownership, multi-structure market economy, and also possibility for each person independently to choose sphere of economic activities • 2) Obligatory regulation of mutual relations of private persons, groups, institutes and all other making elements of civil society by means of civil law that allows to overcome possible conflicts and to develop general integrating policy in interests of all society

  10. 3) Constant and universal protection of interests of each person, its natural right to life, freedom, happiness, creation of branched out system of mechanisms of such protection and supporting of its accurate functioning • 4) Realization of self-management in all spheres and at all levels of public life • 5) Obligatory interaction with state without which cannot be and civil society

  11. 3. Concept of legal state and its distinctive attributes. Lawful state is such a form of organization and the activity of political power ­which is under construction in mutual relations with individuals and their various associations on the basis of norms of right. Thus the right ­ plays a priority role only with that a case if it acts as freedom measure of all and everyone, if laws in really serve to interests of people and state, and their realization is embodiment of justice.

  12. Signs of lawful state: • Leadership of right, in society dominates law, instead of people • Presence and realization in society of maximum volume of rights and freedom of citizens (according to General Declaration of human rights) • Division of power and their interaction through system «controls and counterbalances»

  13. Mutual responsibility of state and citizen when both of them equally bear responsibility for observance of laws • Law-abiding of citizens their legal consciousness and culture • Action in society of democratic principles and procedures. Major principle is «everything is authorized, that is not forbidden by law».
