VALUES AND TRADITIONS IN THE ADMINISTRATIVE CODE AND OTHER NORMATIVE ACTS

Abstract

States have always been concerned with regulating in the Constitution or in other domestic normative acts the most important coordinates according to which the good administration of the country is carried out. Depending on specific values and traditions, all states develop in normative acts what they consider most important to express their national identity. The topic we propose started from the curiosity to know whether references are made to divinity or to Christian values in national law, but also in comparative law, in main normative acts. A potential topic of debate would be that of finding out if there is unitary regulation in the Constitution, but also in other normative acts, in what concerns the inclusion of the religious wording in the content of the oath. From this point of view, we consider that the topic is of interest due to the fact it provides additional information both to law specialists and to persons that could find themselves, at some point, in the situation to fulfill the formality of the oath, when assuming the mandate or public office. In order to fulfill the proposed research scope, several normative acts shall be analyzed, both from national legislation, but also from comparative law, in the light of the proposed research topic. The final part of the study shall consist of the conclusions and de lege ferenda proposals.
