Summary/Abstract: We consider the concept and attributes of the functions of a legal system and analyze their peculiarities. Great attention is paid to the integrative function of a legal system, regarded as the most important one since it ensures integrity of both legal system and society in general. We study regulatory and protective functions peculiar to both law and a legal system, as well as the function of legal socialization, the function of value orientation, and the information function of a legal system. We believe that an individual function of law may be included in the content of various functions of a legal system. The functions of a legal system and the functions of law depend on the peculiarities of legal family.
