Caracterul normativ al relaţiilor dintre individ şi stat – noțiune, particularități și mecanism de realizare [Articol]

Abstract

Throughout human history, there have always been certain norms of conduct in society, which regulated the behavior of individuals in multiple situations. The set of norms has evolved over time, depending on either political regimes and ideologies, conflicts and wars or revolutions, thus forming laws. It is known that laws guarantee public order and security in society as long as they are respected by citizens. Today, changes are happening at an astonishing speed, and states and decision-makers are often taken by surprise, lacking adequate and proportionate solutions, responses and reactions. Including, the rule of law, as well as the current system of the mechanism for guaranteeing and ensuring human rights, require adaptations and transformations that would respond to the challenges and crises that are taking place or may take place in the future. It is considered that the state that best ensures and guarantees human rights and freedoms is the rule of law, which pursues a liberal-democratic policy. At the same time, at the global level, human rights and freedoms, the rule of law, and the democratic system are under enormous pressure, in the context of various crises and challenges, but also against the background of those profound transformations that human civilization is going through, including those related to the development of information technologies and artificial intelligence.
