Law

Law is a system of rules and guidelines, typically enforced through social or governmental institutions, that regulate behavior within a society. It serves to maintain order, protect individual rights and liberties, resolve disputes, and establish standards for conduct. Laws can be created by legislatures through statutes, interpreted by courts through judicial decisions, and enforced by governmental agencies. They encompass various fields, including criminal law, civil law, constitutional law, international law, and administrative law, among others. The underlying principle of law is to provide a framework that promotes justice, fairness, and the rule of law, ensuring that everyone is subject to the same legal standards.
