In the history of political and legal thought, two main ways of substantiating the legal force of normative legal acts have taken shape: normative and subject-political. The most consistently and argumentatively indicated methods are set out in the theoretical works of German lawyers of the last century, Hans Kelsen and Karl Schmitt. The article proposes to compare the views of thinkers on the nature of legal force and the hierarchy of normative legal acts. In the final part of the work, a variant of a conciliatory interpretation of competing approaches is substantiated, and conclusions are drawn about the relative practical significance of the analyzed theoretical models in the context of legal practice and the political process.</p></abstract><trans-abstract xml:lang="ru"><p style="text-align: justify;">Проблему юридической силы и иерархии нормативных правовых актов необходимо рассматривать на стыке политико-правового знания, поскольку такие акты являются не просто формой внешнего закрепления правовых норм, предписывающих субъекту определенную модель поведения, но и выражают государственно-властную волю, фиксируют институционально-политический каркас и расклад политических сил в обществе. В истории политической и правовой мысли оформились два основных способа обоснования юридической силы нормативно-правовых актов: нормативный и субъектно-политический. Наиболее последовательно и аргументированно обозначенные способы изложены в теоретических трудах немецких государствоведов прошлого века Ганса Кельзена и Карла Шмитта. В статье предлагается сравнить между собой взгляды мыслителей на природу юридической силы и иерархии нормативно-правовых актов. В заключительной части работы обосновывается вариант примирительной трактовки конкурирующих подходов, а также делаются выводы относительно практической значимости анализируемых теоретических моделей в контексте юридической практики и политического процесса.</p></trans-abstract><kwd-group xml:lang="en"><kwd>hierarchy</kwd><kwd>validity</kwd><kwd>normative legal acts</kwd><kwd>legal norm</kwd><kwd>political power</kwd><kwd>public authority</kwd></kwd-group><kwd-group xml:lang="ru"><kwd>иерархия</kwd><kwd>юридическая сила</kwd><kwd>нормативные правовые акты</kwd><kwd>правовая норма</kwd><kwd>политическая власть</kwd><kwd>орган государственной власти</kwd></kwd-group><funding-group/></article-meta></front><body></body><back><ref-list><ref id="B1"><label>1.</label><citation-alternatives><mixed-citation xml:lang="en">Aliprantis, N., &amp; Olechowski, T.
