Social conditions of law and governance (in different social-cultural contexts)


In the process of joining to EU and even after it, the connection between state and citizens has primary importance. Our aim is investigating the social conditions of a balanced relation between citizens, civil society and formal state and legal structures with the concepts and methodology of sociology of law. Thematic issues should be: knowledge of law, social context of the work of legal-political institutions, courts, public administration (including structure, socialisation, recrutation, effectiveness, social, effects, etc.), the changing conditioning role of the civil society in the function of maintaining stability and stimulating changes.
