Abstract

In today's society and the media, we often encounter the notion of the rule of law and the rule of law. Unfortunately, we live in a country where these terms are often at stake, and most often referred to by those who violate them. Usually these terms are perceived as synonyms, but this is not the case. Man has always been striving for the freedom, rights and equality that he deserves under the moral and promised laws of man. We view the rule of law as the spirit of the modern state, the state in the service of the people. The notion of the rule of law, in its contemporary theoretical meaning, is a sociological category that gives optimal frameworks for human freedoms, equality of people in opportunities for success. It is a state where it is not governed by an individual or a group but by the rule of law and everyone is obliged to obey that rule.The prerequisites for the exercise of the rule of law are the constitution, the separation of powers, and constitutionality and legality. In the rule of law, law alone is the highest ranking, above any individual or group, including the legislator.
