Abstract

The state determines the rules of people's behavior in society through legal norms. Legal norms are written and applied through the state apparatus, which includes the rules of conduct of a society where executive power takes care of the enforcement of legal norms (the Constitution, laws and other legal acts). Democratic and legal institutions expressed through three fundamental attributes: 1. Legitimacy 2. Authority and 3. Political power Through the implementation of free, fair and democratic elections, the legitimacy of power is ensured. Apparently in many world systems there is suspicion and concern about fraud and manipulation of the electoral process. The implementation of the elections in accordance with the Electoral Regula- tion, correctly and with integrity is seen as a mechanism for securing the legitimacy of the elected leaders. Authority has its source in the constitution and the law, where they simultaneously make their limitations and secure a process of power restraint. In particular, political power manifests with the relations between the legislature and the executive (Parliament and Government). The construction of the rule of law in the Republic of Macedonia represents the essential element of democratic transition, which began after the declaration of independence in 1991. When we talk about the state of law, we understand that this represents a broad legal and political concept which includes a set of principles that ensure the rule of law and democratic relations in society.
