Relation between Laws & Legislators

Relation between Laws and Legislature

Introduction

The nature of relationship between a law and legislature is quite simple, yet, complex. Laws are proposed and approved by the legislature, which are crafted in a way to meet the requirements of the society and to create balance in the society. The term law refers to a legal supreme rule, general and impersonal, or the entity formed by such rules. The law is today typically prescribed by the Parliament, representing the people and therefore holds the legislative power. Legislatures on the other hand are the people who have to enact laws. Legislation is sometimes referred to as a synonym for the law, although the legislation also includes rules which also provides general rules and impersonal. Similarly, law maker is the term used for the people who hold the legislative power.

Relation between Laws and Legislature

The relation between law and legislature earlier stated is simultaneously simple and complex. A law is prepared, proposed and approved by legislatures (also known as law makers), which define the nature of relationship, that is creator and creation. On the other hand, the complexity arises in the formation and approval of law, when the legislature the direct creator of the law has to oblige the preferences of the people while preparing the drafts for law. Law is actually, a rule of law enacted by the legislature (i.e. the competent authority that has what is called "bill") or by the legislative body (which is seen in countries with the division of three powers). For example in the case of democratic countries, are all the rules laid by a parliament or a legislature or by a senate or a congress (the name varies by country). In many states certain authorities or institutions are authorized to make laws: For example in some countries have ministers bill to certain areas. Bill is the function or ability to propose a law. Usually the bill is derogate in the legislature, however as I mentioned in some cases the executive organ may also have bill. They are classified by the laws in a material and formal. Law in a material sense is all those general rules and obligations, issued by competent authority. Laws in the formal sense are those that emanate from the legislative body.

Law refers in the broadest sense the set of all legal standards governing a country, i.e. the set of laws, regulations, ordinances, etc. regulating a particular country. In a narrower sense refers to all laws enacted by the legislature or by the legislative body. For example all the laws written and passed by the legislature of a country and in another sense it refers to the legal system, i.e. the type structure of the law governing a country. For example: civil law (as in most Latin American and European) Common Law (as in the U.S. and the UK), religious law (such as the Sharia in Islamic countries).
