"People would not know the name of <strong>Justice</strong>, if unjust things<br />

did not exist"<br />

(Heraclitus, cited by Murray, 1889)<br />

<strong>Justice</strong> <strong>and</strong> injustice are the greatest dualism. Neither justice<br />

nor injustice is the same for all people <strong>and</strong> all cultures. Namely,<br />

what is justice for ones, may be punishable for others. The<br />

hibernating human nature from the earliest times required<br />

organization of society by canons, laws, tribal rules, written <strong>and</strong><br />

unspoken. The Old Testament is based on laws that prescribe<br />

very strict norms in behavior <strong>and</strong> everyday life. To respect this<br />

law <strong>and</strong> such a life lies in this law righteousness (eye for eye,<br />

tooth for tooth), but in the present time we can not recognize<br />

such justice. In many cultures, justice was sought <strong>and</strong><br />

sanctioned by "blood vengeance", therefore not by law. Why?<br />

Does this mean that the justice is in the blood revenge, <strong>and</strong><br />

that the law is unjust? Or, it means that one are looking for<br />

justice by blood revenge, <strong>and</strong> other the laws. If we are looking<br />

for justice in the laws, then it is important who <strong>and</strong> how puts<br />

these laws into effect.<br />

The Supreme <strong>Law</strong> is a Constitution. The Constitution is a<br />

guarantee of human freedom <strong>and</strong> a reflection of the will of the<br />

people. The coexistence of the creation of the state <strong>and</strong> of the<br />

law, the creation of a state-right order necessarily implies the<br />

existence of some m<strong>and</strong>atory rules that constitute the basis<br />

upon which both the state <strong>and</strong> the right are built; The<br />

constitution in the formal sense is a written act of the greatest<br />

legal force regulating the basis of state <strong>and</strong> social organization<br />

of one country.
