The article deals with the views of scholars on legal influence in the system of social influence. Using a systematic methodology for the study of legal phenomena, the social system is revealed in its relationship with law and legal influence from the standpoint of modern theory of law. Social norms in the system of social influence are characterized. It is noted that the main purpose of social norms is to ensure the system nature of social relations, orderliness, organization, and focus on socially useful results. In the context of the modern understanding of these legal institutions, such types of regulators of social relations as custom, tradition, moral, religious, political, corporate and legal norms are distinguished. A feature of legal influence is a specific toolkit, which consists in a unique set of legal means, methods and techniques of influence, through which law affects people and society. Psychological, economic, organizational and managerial, political, cultural and religious direction of influence cannot be effective without the influence of the legal, because law regulates in detail the important aspects of public life and consolidates the interests of society. Issues of economic organization, the functioning of the political system, and some issues of organization of cultural life of society are reflected in law. Other areas affect certain aspects of human life. These areas actively interact, having a comprehensive impact on society. Each type of social norms has shortcomings, but, acting in the system, they affect various aspects of the human psyche, ensuring the fullness of social influence, contributing to the common goal – the desired state of social life. Legal influence has a special place in the system of social influence.
