In the period 1859-1918, Romania built and consolidated a modern law system subject to fundamental principles that were found throughout Europe, with functional mechanisms and institutions. The adoption of the major codes - the Civil Code, the Code of Civil Procedure, the Criminal Code and the Code of Criminal Procedure - during the reign of Alexandru Ioan Cuza had a cardinal importance for the national legal system. The exercise of modern legislation initiated at that time, in a rhythm which was sometimes criticized, continued through the adoption of the 1866 Constitution or through the measures of the integration of Dobrogea in the Romanian law system. On the path opened by the generation of the Union of the Principalities, Carol I strengthened the beneficial force of law, building a state in which “only the law debated and approved by the nation, decides and governs”. The science of law and legal culture had in Romania, almost six decades after the Union of the Principalities, gathered through tradition and reform, an important dowry, a true “fulfilled state of law”. In the Old Kingdom there was, at the beginning of the 20th century, a fully achieved legal system that rightly expected to be the foundation of the legal system of Greater Romania.

The formation of legislation is a condition in the framework of national law development which can only be realized if supported by good methods, which are binding on all institutions authorized to make regulations. Indonesia is a state of law that should implement good national legal development, which is carried out in a planned, integrated and sustainable manner in the national legal system. Law No. 12 of 2011 states that research is an important element in the formation of the legislation process. Because it is impossible if a draft legislation is formed before the existence of a legal investigation. This research discussed about the role of legal research in the formation of legislation, as well as what are the benefits of legal research itself. The conclusion is the formation of laws and regulations cannot occur if there is no legal research, because legal research is an internal problem solver in the process of establishing legislation. This legal research itself plays an active role in obtaining valid, correct, rational, and logical data. In addition, legal research is also useful for obtaining raw materials from all aspects, both juridical, socio-psychological, and philosophical that are accurate and complete.

The features of the manifestations of hybrid wars were investigated by examples of its action in certain sectors of science, education, economics, finance, and criminal law. Certain characteristics of actions and events have been identified as elements of a hybrid war and not as random events. The Criminal Code of the Russian Federation does not contain the necessary articles that would allow sufficient legal protection of the rights of citizens and the interests of the state from the actions and consequences of hybrid wars. In general, the criminal law system is not ready to identify and classify events as elements of a hybrid war, repel hybrid war attacks and waging confrontation, and work on the initial preemption and prevention of hybrid wars. This article, which is proposed to be introduced into the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation, reveals the concept of hybrid war and provides its full definition in a new article. In conclusion, criminal legal measures and the possibilities of only the criminal legal system cannot solve the problems of confrontation in hybrid wars, and involvement of all the forces and resources of the state is necessary. A proposal was made on the need to move to organizing the work of Russian law enforcement agencies on new principles: preemptive and prevention of hybrid wars instead of merely identifying their consequences and fragmentary application of criminal punishment for actions that are insignificant in comparison to the scale and damage caused by a hybrid war.

The author re-examines in this article the foundations for the traditional classifications of legal systems in comparative legal studies and suggests the usefulness of a kaleidoscopic perception of legal classifications and change, commencing from the revolutions of 1917 down to the present with special reference to the enduring impact on Asian legal systems. China, Mongolia, Vietnam, and Laos, together with Cuba and Ethiopia, are arguably the surviving systems of the socialist legal tradition – few in number but massive in population. Various perspectives are suggested for classifying legal systems. None are regarded as mutually exclusive; that is, a single national legal system may display features of several familial characteristics. A substantial list of possible characteristics of socialist legal systems is given, as is a lengthy enumeration of possible categories of families of legal systems: socialist/totalitarian, technocratic, formalist, transitional, RomanoGermanic, mixed, Slavic, Eurasian, among others. With respect to Asian socialist legal systems, the article asks whether it is descriptively and analytically more correct to, for example, describe China as a “socialist legal system with Chinese characteristics” or a “Chinese legal system with socialist characteristics”. In either event, or a modification of the juxtaposition, the question remains: what factors make China one or the other? Whatever the answer at any given moment in time, a kaleidoscopic perception of legal change and movement looks less for eternal verities than for constant readjustment, constant re-evaluation of the balance of factors that comprise a legal system, and the development of additional relevant criteria that help identify the forces at work in legal development.
