The Evolution of Law and the Emanation of Law: The Concept and Essence

Abstract

The purpose of the paper is to analyze the evolution of law and the emanation of law, revealing their essence, based on the concept of integrative legal understanding that synthesizes ontologically homogeneous legal regulators — principles and norms of law. The study of the stated problem was carried out based on general scientific (including systemic, historical, comparative) and private law methods of scientific cognition. The legal phenomena under study are complex and multidimensional, they are revealed as processes of development of law in terms of its content and forms of external expression. The authors come to reasoned conclusions that the evolution of law consists in the development by law-making entities on the basis of general principles of law of such legal regulators that allow society to move to a qualitatively new stage of legal regulation of legal relations. In turn, the emanation of law is a transformation of forms of law, reflecting the process of understanding and external expression, first, of general principles of law as the basis universal legal relations
