Summary/Abstract: The general principles of law are a set of concepts, guiding ideas, basic principles that permeate the entire legal system and subordinate all other legal phenomena to themselves. Legal principles are basic propositions that have a permanent character and a metaphysical basis. Principles in law are not derived from reality, but quite the opposite – principles create legal reality. Legal principles, even those that are not explicitly defined legal norms, have a normative, albeit indirectly normative character. Principles of law constitute a fundamental pillar of today's democracies, not only because they give meaning to a country's regulatory system, but also because they serve to guide judges in resolving legal cases.
