õiguskorrana

õiguskorrana is an Estonian term that translates to "legal order" or "legal system." It refers to the comprehensive set of rules, principles, and institutions that govern a society and regulate human behavior. This includes laws enacted by legislative bodies, judicial decisions made by courts, and administrative regulations issued by government agencies. The primary function of an õiguskorrana is to establish order, resolve disputes peacefully, protect individual rights, and ensure the overall functioning of the state and its citizens.

A well-functioning õiguskorrana is characterized by predictability, fairness, and accessibility. Predictability means that individuals can reasonably anticipate the legal consequences of their actions. Fairness implies that laws are applied equally and impartially to all. Accessibility ensures that citizens can understand and avail themselves of the legal system when needed. The concept also encompasses the idea that the legal framework itself is subject to continuous development and adaptation to meet the evolving needs of society.

In Estonia, as in many other countries, the õiguskorrana is built upon principles of the rule of law, meaning that everyone, including those in power, is subject to and accountable under the law. This legal order provides a framework for economic activity, social interaction, and political governance, contributing to the stability and well-being of the nation.
