Summary/Abstract: The article presents the legal institute as an element of socioculture in societies. The discussion is focused on the difficulties in defining legal culture, which is seen as an element of culture as a whole. Legal culture is understood in two ways: 1) the development of law as part of human civilization and 2) the art of the lawyer to apply the law.The article examines the institutionalization of values in law in order to explore the impact of socio-culture in building the legal institutes. The main conclusion is that the durability and flexibility of legal institutes as an element of the legal system is due to the influence of values as moral ideals on the content of law.
