Abstract

The field of public relations within the realm of legislative processes of the state undergoes theoretical and legal analysis. These social relations, which arise from the implementation of legislative activities by legislative entities, are proposed to be regarded as a form of legal relationships with their inherent structure encompassing the object, subjects, and content represented by relevant subjective rights and legal obligations. The article examines the scholarly context that has emerged within Russian jurisprudence in connection with the theoretical framework of legislative relationships. It acknowledges that despite the existence of critical viewpoints regarding this category and fragmentation in its use, it holds clear prospects for more active integration within scholarly discourse. The article establishes that this form of legal relationships indeed holds specificity determined by the nature of the activities around which legislative relationships are formed, such as the influential role in political and legal decision-making. However, this does not preclude the application of the construct of legal relationships in connection with relevant legal activities. The concept of legislative legal relationships is proposed outlining the characteristics of legislative law as the normative legal basis of legislative legal relationships. The elements of legislative relationships are delineated and scientific conclusions are formulated regarding the phenomenon of legislative relationships as a distinct form of application and implementation of law.
