Abstract

The speed and depth of the legal changes in the USSR have increased drastically in the past year. The changes now occurring involve the fundamental principles on which Soviet legal regulation is based. In many areas of the law, change is at its earliest stages, having proceeded no further than the issuance of a new set of basic legal principles on which further legislation and regulations are to be based. Continuing debate over political issues and the proper overall direction of reform has sidetracked the process of elaboration of subordinate legislation and regulations, and there is often little or no enforcement history or authoritative interpretation of new laws. Thus, the current state of the law in many areas is extremely uncertain.
