Summary/Abstract: The Law accompanies social life from the oldest days to the present. We are living in a period in which Law and justice have more than ever a particular importance for the development of the society. The main elements that form the social body of the contemporary society fall under the incidence of the Law. The evolution of the human society confirmed the dictum „ubi societas ubi jus” (where there is society there is Law too). The human is a political being, a “zoon politikon”, as the great philosopher Aristotle used to say, and he lives in the society as being a social creature. Therefore, it is observed the connection between the Law and the politics, between the Law and the public power. Assisting human existence, representing the frame and the foundation of human society, the Law opens paths to future evolution, through sometimes radical reforms, that require courage and clairvoyance, bearing the legal mark so that they can be imposed.
