CONTINUITY AND CHANGES IN MEGATENDENCIES IN LAW (THEORETICAL AND LEGAL RESEARCH INTO LABOR LAW NORMS)

Abstract

The main goal of the research is to study the present state of law illustrated with an example of labor law. The author sets the following tasks: to show current trends in the formation of new legal standards which are affected by such multidirectional factors as state and society. The main research methods were the methods of analysis, synthesis and comparative studies. The author reveals that at present the significance of the Europeanization of the German legal system is not yet realized by the majority of the society. The German legal tradition follows mainly a static interpretation, while in dealing with the law of the European Union a dynamic interpretation is required. The author makes some practical recommendations for legislators and law enforcers. Based on the experience of Germany and judicial professional activity, the existence of an interconnected “chain” is proved: globalization of economy - globalization of social structures - globalization of law. The author argues that the roots of globalization of law are in a continuous process of evaluating economics and law. The paper concludes that even in the world of tough competition and digital economy the law has an important megatrend - the trend of spirituality, which should be reflected in the leading codified standards.
