The article gives the def inition of the process of materialization of law; the author proves that the materialization of law is creative, communicative and ambivalent in epistemic and axiological senses. It is justified that the legitimacy of the law and the legitimacy of power in the late modern society not only do not coincide, but also diverge until confrontation, because the rationalization of society is fragmentary, and the national sovereignty does not help to gather these fragments together. In this sense, external materialization can have a constructive effect on the legal order in some countries.
