Abstract
The article is devoted to the definition of the concept of law, characterization of its essential qualities and historical types. The methodological difficulties of finding a clear definition of a legal phenomenon are shown on the example of Kantian philosophy. Law is a sociocultural phenomenon, it is present in the mind of a person and manifests itself in society, i. e. is realized in legal relations, creates and maintains the legal order in society.
