Abstract

The article is devoted to the analysis of doctrinal sources on legal conflicts. The positions of scientists concerning this concept are given. The author considers conflicts in law as a discrepancy between legislative acts and their norms. The elimination of conflicts helps to reduce the level of conflict between the parties and participants of the legal conflict. Among the causes of conflicts the objective (rapid dynamics of social development) and subjective (insufficient level of legal culture of developers of draft acts) are emphasized. Attention is paid to the role of the Law of the Republic of Belarus “On normative legal acts” in providing a legal basis for overcoming conflicts. The questions connected with the procedure and consequences of normative interpretation of legislative acts are considered (about the form of the act of interpretation, about the principle of not giving retroactive effect to the act in the implementation of official interpretation, etc.).
