Summary/Abstract: Legal institutions enable the residents of the commune — members of the self-government community — to actively participate in exercising power, control it, as well as co-decide about part of the budget. They increase the sense of participation and shared responsibility for the decisions made by the members of the corporation. The corporate approach to the commune creates empower¬ment of this self-government community in legal, sociological, and axiological terms.
