Abstract

The paper provides survey of the Russian and foreign literature on notions “social contract” and “legitimacy”. The different approaches to operationalization and dimension of legitimacy, factors to setting of legitimacy significance are examined. On the base of the researches’ results it is shown that in spite of the widely spread standpoint about importance of democratic procedures as main condition for authority’s legitimacy the quality of state government is found out to be more significant.
