Law and morality are interrelated, regulate the relationships between all members of the human society.
right - it is, in fact, the technical norms of human behavior, which are determined by the laws of the state.
Morality - a social and moral norms of behavior that cover the scope of the relationship between people.
ratio of morality and law - one of the main problems of any society.
implementation of the law special controls the state apparatus and adherence to moral norms and rules - public opinion.
golden rule of universal content of morality best expresses the truism: "Do unto others as you want them to do unto you."
In ancient times, the concept of "right" and "moral" were almost identical.Lawfulness was considered the highest virtue.In the Middle Ages the word "right" and "morality" are no longer synonymous.The era of the formation of the legal system, sufficient autonomy from morality systems.But the criterion of the correctness of both legal and moral attitudes was one - according to God's Law.
Law and morals do not appear from the outside, they are the products of society, society.The ratio of morality and law is quite difficult.Between them there is a close relationship that has the following components:
- unity;
- interaction;
- differences;
- contradictions.
unity: both concepts are normative content and regulate the behavior of people, they have one goal - the coordination of interaction between society and the individual.They have a common social norms based on a common culture, economic and social interests of society.
interaction.One goal - to enforce laws.Unlawful conduct is protivonravstvennym.In their assessment of law and morality are one.
differences: the right recognized in the legal acts that develop competent authorities.The requirements of morality are reflected in public opinion.Ideas of morality transmitted art, literature and media.
contradictions arise from the differences between them.Law and morality are in the process of constant development as well as society.But the right is more conservative.Legislation often contains many flaws and gaps.Morality is more dynamic, active, lively respond to the changes occurring in society.
are closely related, both of these phenomena develop unevenly.Therefore, as a rule, any society has a different moral and legal status.
order that man may live in harmony with a certain society, it must comply with certain social norms that regulate, orient people's behavior in a given situation.The rate is intended to define the boundaries of the rules of conduct to assess this behavior, ie,It is a means to maintain order.
main types of standards:
- customs;
- moral norms;
- institutional, ieembodied in social institutions;
- laws.
Violation of causes negative reaction of society, aimed at the one who deviates from the established patterns of behavior.The reaction is expressed in the form of certain sanctions - punishment or rewards.Regulatory systems evolve with society, changing attitudes of society to the existing standards.Sharp deviations from generally accepted threaten the stability of society.
Value - a definite purpose (ideal), to which the individual seeks.It defines priorities in life, landmarks, encourages people to constant activity.
social order of society depends on what the core values are considered mandatory for him to be chosen as the standard of conduct.
social norms and values perform a very important function, they regulate the social behavior of every member of society.
