Abstract There is a perennial ambiguity in the rule-of-law preposition: it predicates that the law shall rule, but which law? This legal loophole has led to a diverse array of interpretations of the concept. Of these, two appear particularly adverse to what the rule of law should primarily be—the rulership of the law—yet still remain dominant. On the one hand, the rule of law is intended to be the vehicle to deliver above-the-law goods such as human rights or other individual entitlements like property, and to forever shield them against any other force, including the law. On the other hand, the rule of law is believed to be a tool at the rulers’ disposal, who make use of the law but are not bound by it, for either legal or practical reasons. In both cases, a pre-legal setting for society allocates rulership to something but not the law, against the very essence of the ideal: an authoritative legal practice for the sake of regulating the present society. As such, the rule of law has to meet certain requirements of craftsmanship, like conditions in law-making and law-enforcement, and sources, which are to be democratically underpinned.

Israel is a democracy committed to the protection of human rights while at the same time trying to contain uniquely difficult national security concerns. One area where this tension is manifest is government access to communications data. On the one hand, subscriber privacy is a constitutional right protected by legislation and Supreme Court jurisprudence; on the other hand, communications data are a powerful tool in the hands of national security and law enforcement agencies. This chapter examines Israel’s attempt to balance these competing interests by empowering national security agencies while at the same time creating mechanisms of accountability. In particular, Israel utilizes the special independent status of the attorney general as a check on government power.

The article is devoted to the study of the concept of legal effectiveness in the context of the goals and purpose of law in general and separately in the private law relations. Since the law is a complex social phenomenon, the author paid special attention to the issues of refraction of normative tasks through the prism of judicial discretion. Law enforcement practice, on the one hand, shows the viability of a particular norm and its compliance with the current level of development of civil society, however, it can also distort the spirit of the law, which will not allow achieving the necessary legal result. Judicial discretion regarding the interpretation of certain legal elements and in assessing the behavior of participants in legal relations can lead to the transformation of legal relations, which does not allow to realize the goals set by the subjects. It is noted that the regulation of the limits of judicial discretion would help to ensure effective legal regulation. Assessing the behavior of participants due to the lack of mechanisms for proving the actual intentions of the parties is difficult for most countries of the continental legal system; therefore, a formal approach prevails and qualifies the will of the parties recorded exclusively in writing.

s a result of the constitutional reform of 2020, the mention that local self-government bodies can independently protect public order was deleted from part 1 of article 132 of the 1993 Constitution of Russia. Nevertheless, they are still involved in the exercise of the law enforcement function of the State. The activities of local governments in this area can be improved, including on the basis of domestic historical experience. In this regard, the process of creating councils as local authorities, and the peculiarities of their participation in the construction of the militia in the years of Civil War (1918–1920), is of significant interest. As a result of the study, it was concluded that from the moment of the establishment of Soviet power until the end of the active phase of the Civil War, the organization of local councils and militia, as well as their relations, underwent significant changes. The workers’ militia was independently created and maintained by local councils, as bodies of direct democracy of workers. In the future, the role of their executive committees increased significantly, which received significant powers in relation to the militia. In the conditions of the Civil War, the Soviet state was strengthened and the workers' and peasants' militia was centralized. The ability of local authorities to influence its organization and activities has been limited. During this time, the Soviet police turned from mass amateur organizations of workers created by local councils into a state paramilitary law enforcement body.

The paper discusses general regularities affecting the discretion in law enforcement and law-making practice in the countries of the Romano-Germanic legal family. Factor analysis provides a detailed description of the most important laws related to the exercise of discretion in the law enforcement and law-making practice of the states of the specified legal family. In particular, the author draws attention to the dual nature of judicial rulemaking, the pronounced codified nature of legislation, the leading role of a normative legal act in the system of law sources, the presence of explicit conceptuality and doctrinality, and other essential factors. In comparison with the system of common law, the continental legal family is characterized by the significant influence of the works of legal scholars and the expressed and intense perception of legal doctrines and theories. The author notes that the array of acts of interpretation significantly influences the uniformity of judicial practice in the continental legal system since this is a way to give flexibility to the legal regulation of public relations. Besides, the codifiers use a large number of scientifically based general provisions to formulate prescriptions, which are the main focus. The paper considers the fact that in the Romano-Germanic legal family, the lawyers regard as unacceptable the situation when the will of the judicial authorities determines the decisions made by the legislator since a traditionary one is a situation when the judicial authorities implement the will of the legislator. The author concludes that the rule of law is a consistent principle of the continental legal system. The paper states that scientific development should pay particular emphasis to the problems of law enforcement discretion. Thus, judicial discretion in law is most typical for the legal systems of the Anglo-Saxon legal family, and administrative discretion (the discretion of administrative jurisdiction) – for the Romano-Germanic legal family. The legal system developed in a particular state determines the general and specific regularities of exercising discretion in law practice.
