https://doi.org/ 10.18384/2310-6794-2018-3-71-78

Abstract

The article argues the necessity of including legitimacy in the set of characteristics of a human right. The author demonstrates the shortcomings of the normative approach to the definition of right, formulates new characteristics of right, provides the definition of right and parameters of its legitimacy. The research methodology is a post-classical one. The scientific novelty, theoretical and practical value of the research consist in substantiating the new feature of right, determining the process of legitimizing rights and measuring their legitimacy. Legitimacy is defined as the process of recognizing a right. The legitimacy of right is measured at three levels: micro, meso and macro. It is proved that an indicator of the legitimacy of the system of right is its stability.
