Summary/Abstract: After introductory remarks on the significance of the problem of justice, the author treats typical views on this category and grounds for its absoluteness, first of all as pure ideas and ideals of the kind. Due to that even the greatest thinkers contribute to the creation of illusions of justice, while the remaining mass, due to the effect of objective factors and subjective elements, is inclined to cherish various illusions concerning justice. Most typical aspect of such illusory quality are: philosophical idealism, which treats justice as an abstract value; theological idealism treating justice in a dual way, while distinguishing God’s and man’s justice; humanistic idealism, which connects justice with so-called social contract and human rights; socio-political idealism, including particularly marxism, attempts to represent justice as Utopian and eschatological. All these aspects of illusory quality are, in fact, ideological, and more particularly the mandst one, which had disastrous consequences. In addition, while articulating his own conception of justice, the author emphasizes the significance of the problems of justice in relation to an integrally conceived and developed theory' of the state and legal order.
