MORAL SOURCES OF LEGAL LIABILITY IN NATIONAL AND INTERNATIONAL LEGAL DOCTRINE – THEORETIC CONSIDERATIONS

Summary/Abstract: The present period determined major changes to the level of humans, both in relation to political, economic and social issues and to legal ones. Romania of the last 20 years has passed through radical changes at social, political and economic level, from a centralized system of socialist economy whose main objective at the level of the organisation, was the production and the achievement of the required production parameters towards a market economy system. The new market economy principles had a strong influence on the existent systems of human values and implicitly on moral life; consequently, we are now facing major changes of the perceptions of the generations on the system of moral values, reinterpretations of moral principles and moral values of a society in full transformation towards a new system of values. These changes of moral principles have a strong impact also on the system of legal liability that we want to discuss about in this paper. Under the social issue of legal criminality, we are now the witnesses of a change of the perception of the statute of “criminal” at the level of the whole society, on the background of an increase at this level. The idea of a “moral crisis” about which we discuss in this paper is more and more accepted. The corruption, the felonies are themes of great actuality. This paper proposes to present briefly the impact of social changes towards morality, of the relation between moral, justice and legal liability.
