The role of judicial acts in promoting the legitimacy of legal policy and authority of power

Introduction. The judiciary plays an important role in the formation and promotion of legal policy and its legitimate vector of development. This is manifested not only in the educational potential of judicial acts and the disciplinary impact of justice itself, but also in other ways of influencing the consciousness of the population. These methods may not be the main ones, but accompanying ones. Theoretical analysis. The appeal of modern law enforcement officers to the texts of explanatory notes of regulatory acts in search of teleological meanings is one of those techniques that are used in interpretation. However, the author saw its significance not only for interpretative purposes. At the current stage of development of society and law, an appeal to explanatory notes in law enforcement interpretation has become a frequently sought-after technique, as evidenced by the author’s analysis of modern judicial practice. Empirical analysis. It was revealed that the appeal to an explanatory note allows not to bypass the true will of the legislator, adjusting the broad possibilities of the law enforcement officer, turning the practice into a single channel. But to increase the effectiveness of such activities, it is certainly necessary to adjust the informativeness of explanatory notes drawn up by subjects of legislative initiative, focusing attention in them on the purpose of adopting a future normative act. Results. The potential of law enforcement interpretation makes it possible to express solidarity with legislators, realizing the social role of justice, filling it with teleological meanings, emphasizing the content of the expected changes in social relations. The emerging vector of law interpretation activities “highlights” the significant social role of justice, in addition to the educational one, which is optionally also seen in legal propaganda of the legitimacy of modern legal policy.
