The Genesis of the Dialectical Connection of Law and Social Theory. Transformation of social — from right to power

The author draws a parallel between social and legal studies. Using the laws of logic and achievements of thinkers of XIX — XX centuries, the author analyzes the complementarity of law and social, when social creates its jurisdiction, and the law provides the structure of social. The integration of legal pluralism into social theory is considered, the atrophy of social theory is shown, as well as the fluidity of thinking systems and theories of society in the post-modern era, according to research by leading theorists. The author designates questions about the revision of the nature and scope of law, about the opposition of law and governance. Noting the stability of the legal institution to complex societies in modern theories, the author concludes the congruence of law and morality in the social system.
