The Concept Of Legitimacy Of State Power And Its Socio-Political Significance

Аннотация

The state power of the Republic of Uzbekistan is divided into legislative, executive and judicial powers. The three branches of government, only they and of course all three of them together form a single state power. The functioning and cooperation of this system on a legal basis implies the legitimacy of state power. No other body can claim power. The Constitution of the Republic of Uzbekistan states that “It is unconstitutional to change the powers of state power, suspend or terminate the activity of government bodies, create new and balanced structures of power in a manner not provided for in the Constitution, and is the basis for legal liability” (Article 7). Taking this article simply, we can see that it serves as a legal basis for the legitimacy of state power in independent Uzbekistan. KEYWORDS Constitution, legitimacy, succession, traditional legitimacy, charismatic legitimacy, rational legitimacy.
