Abstract

The issues of the effectiveness of law and its norms have repeatedly become the subject of scientific discussion, but have not found an unambiguous solution. On the basis of Russian jurists' works an idea has been formed that the effectiveness in law is determined not only by the fact of the implementation of specific norms and the achievement of the result planned when they are adopted, but also by their social usefulness and compliance with the fundamental values of this particular society. Modern society, often referred to as postmodern society, has a number of features that have a significant impact on the development of law and its regulatory impact.

The purpose of the study is to identify the dependence of the understanding of legal norms effectiveness on the basic characteristics of postmodern society.

Research methodology: classical legal methods and methods of post-non-classical science, focused on the study of complex self-developing systems, as well as recognition of the special role of the subject in legal regulation.

Conclusions: the degree of legal norms effectiveness should be based on the result that their application has brought to society and the degree of achievement of goals that meet the objectives of social management at this stage of social development. At the same time, the social goals of a legal norm can be achieved provided that it meets the necessary technical and legal parameters, as well as when it turns into a “living” right embodied in the daily legal behavior of participants in public relations.
