Abstract

The legitimacy has a role in protecting the activities of the authority, So When talking about the submission of the ruler and the convicts to the supremacy of the law in its broadest sense, it is establishes a relationship. It is governed by the rule of the constitution and the law. then the legitimacy made that relationship a pole of controversy between the legal goal and the political goal. Therefore the state"s commitment to legitimacy in its ordinary sphere, which appears in respect for the sequence of laws and the substantive separation of powers only at this time will the state considered to have achieved legitimacy in its wide scope, but when is its activities characterized by a kind of privacy in unusual cases of legality such as exceptional cases and discretionary power and even acts of sovereignty here is considered to have political dimensions, So in this way the fact that legitimacy has a flexible meaning that does not lead to its absence becomes clear but confirms. that it is the pivot of state building with preserving the legitimacy in both cases of securing free partisan activity and an active civil society.
