Соотношение механизма действия права и правовой инициативы в современной России

At present the ideas on the mechanism of the operation of law in legal reality are eroded. The primary amount of debates are reduced to the mechanisms of legal regulation when the word "mechanism" is interpreted as the way of implementation rather than the system of interrelated elements. There were diversity and lack of unity in terminology in the scientific papers about notions, methods and mechanisms of law operation. At times phenomena being different in terms of scope, meaning and content but with the same names are considered. In author's opinion, the mechanism of operation of law in modern Russia cannot be understood properly without understanding both procedural and material features. It can't be ephemeral and for its awareness it's necessary to understand that it is a complex of both some person's (subject) actions including those in pre-legal sphere, and government institutions called upon to control, register and process these actions. At the same time the mechanism of operation of law can't exist without legal initiatives of civil society since only the civil society determines the vector of the country's further development.
